All I can say is WOW !! 🤩 The NanoKnee implant has been everything it promised to be!👍🏻 I am now 6 weeks out from my surgery and my PT’s are so impressed. My rehab has been ahead of schedule and I am already back to 0 degrees extension & 120 degrees flexion😀 I am telling everyone I know, friends & strangers alike, about the NanoKnee difference! Dr. Osuji in Sunnyvale, Tx. did a great job 👍🏻

I had both knees replaced by Dr. Osuji and he was great. He answered all my questions and explained exactly what would happen post surgery came. He told me I could return to all my sports and activities that I was doing pre surgery. Everything he told me came true! I can run, play softball and return to the gym with no restrictions. Nano knee is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

I'm so happy I decided to get the NanoKnee procedure done! The recovery has been so much better, I had little to no pain and I'm feeling better than ever! Couldn't recommend this procedure enough! When my 2nd knee is done, I will have the NanoKnee done again!
