Preparing for Surgery

My knees had become so painful that I had to walk with a cane and I was on an aggressive pain medication. I was very limited in what I could do and I felt as if the pain was affecting my attitude toward everything. Dr. Ferro is marvelous! I felt relaxed and comfortable with him in the first visit. I was very confident in Dr. Ferro and wasn't a bit afraid. What he did for me was almost like a miracle.

Dr. Ferro is the most personable doctor I've ever come across. He takes the time to really listen. He made me feel so comfortable that I felt like I could ask him anything. He recommended a ceramic hip replacement that was done in October of 2005. The result has been such a relief that I don't even remember the pain - it's been just incredible!

I started getting pain in my leg after losing 30 lbs. The pain finally got so bad that I could hardly walk. I heard about Dr. Ferro at a seminar at the hospital and decided it was time to get it checked. The very first time I went to Dr. Ferro's office his entire staff made me feel so comfortable. They were all knowledgeable, encouraging and friendly. Dr. Ferro made me feel so confident that he could help me and he did. I would highly recommend Dr. Ferro to anyone that has pain.

I feel richly blessed that my knee surgery is such a positive and successful experience; thanks, to the skills of Dr. Thomas Ferro. Beginning with the initial office visit, when Dr. Ferro said I would run and play softball in 12 weeks after surgery, I felt totally confident and scheduled the surgery. Currently, I am 76 years young; playing softball on 3 teams; COED recreational, Age 50+ recreational, and Age 75+ Senior Softball Tournament Team. The KNEE function is great!

This was my first surgery; but no fear, and the entire process went smoothly. The indoctrination, surgery prep, surgery, recovery, home care instructions, nurse and therapist home visit arrangements, pain management, etc were "automatic." Although, my home is 90 miles from the clinic, there were no inconveniences.

I was tired of the pain before surgery and it never occurred to me that the knee may not function well. However, the NEW knee exceeds all I could have imagined. Dr. Ferro's experience, technique, and skill as reflected in the overall knee performance is the key issue for me. I am constantly reminded how lucky I am when I am complimented on how quickly and fast I move on the field; play much younger. The knee is stable, strong, seemingly unlimited motion, NO pain and, thereby, totally functional as normal. There are many senior players that I have encountered with knee replacements; but none better than this one. I feel proud to share with others (considering surgery), the successful experience I have with Dr. Ferro and provide more information than they may care to hear. I continue with therapy type exercises and weight training; 3-5 hrs/wk.

Question: Was I able to play in 12wks after surgery? YES. Almost to the day, I played in a Senior Softball Tournament at Huntington Beach, CA. Played every inning of 5 games over a two day span: and all knew I was back!!!!! The entire Staff at the Clinic shares my enthusiasm. Thanks to All and God Bless. AL

After years of pain, and restricted from walking, standing and being able to do all the things I enjoy, I can now walk without limping and pain. On July 12, 2011, Dr. Ferro replaced my left knee. The results were just wonderful. From all the years of favoring my bad joint, my right knee also had to be replaced. This occured April 25, 2012. As I walk I continue to marvel what a great feeling it is to do so feeling comfortable, confident and without pain. I am most thankfull to have found Dr. Ferro!

Thank you so much for giving me such a good experience during this week's surgery. The doctor, his staff, the Sierra Vista staff and all of the professionals that assisted Dr. Ferro get very high marks for a job well done. Because my surgery on my right knee went so well, I plan on having the left knee done in 3 or 4 months. He was very professional and warned me of any potential problems that could arise. However, one thing he said I would have was some pain and 3 days after the surgery I have had no pain at all. Thank you Dr. Ferro for an exceptional experience.

I want to extend my Sincere thanks to Dr. Ferro and his nursing staff for the excellent supportive service at my knee surgery. Dr. Ferro is not only a highly skilled and world renowned surgeon, but he is a caring and very supportive doctor. I had both knee operated by Dr.Ferro and I experienced speedy recovery and minimal pain after the surgery. He is a great doctor and I would highly recommend for knee replacement surgery. Dr. Ferro's nursing and admin. staff is equally professional and best of the best. Thank you Dr. Ferro.

Slowly but surely the pain in your knees robs you of your quality of life. The doctor tells you, "your knees are bone on bone." He answers your questions, then says "take your time and let me know when you are ready for surgery. After surgery your response is, "oh, why didn’t I have both knees replaced years ago!" Pain free to do anything and everything I want to do without limitations! Thank you Dr. Ferro for your exceptional medical skills and abilities in addition to the wonderful rapport you have with your patients. God bless you!

This is my second Nano Knee Replacement, the first was three years ago, and now one just a week ago. The first one was so much better that I could dreamed it could be, the speed of recovery and much less pain than I thought I could have and when all said and done it is 100% back and there is no feelings that tell me anything was ever done to my knee.

My new replacement is heading even better than the first. I had a big bow in my leg that was even affecting my ankle and now my leg is straight an no more ankle pain. I have talked to a lot of people who had knees replaced and none can say they are happy with it. I’m proud to say I had my knees done by Nano Knee . Do your research and I know you can’t go wrong with Nano Knee there the best!!

Received the best care and consideration from office personnel, surgical team, Janika NP and Dr Ferro from start to finish. Every faucet was organized with prompt follow up to my needs. Now pain free and straight legged after a Total knee replacement for severe knock knee. Unfortunately, a few months later another issue arose not related to my knee… Dr Ferro went out of his way to find me an amazing surgeon.

Highly recommend Dr Ferro and Nano Knee Clinic!

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.

Thank you Dr. Eberly for giving my life back. Nobody wanted to do my knee replacement, I suffered so much for years and years. My knee got so bad it was unbearable. I saw the commercial for Nano knee and decided to have a consultation with Dr. Eberly. I had my first knee replacement a year ago and second one four months ago..The surgeries 100% successful. Dr. Eberly and his team are outstanding. I'm fully recovered like nothing happened. If you need a knee replacement, don’t hesitate, just call Dr. Eberly for consultation. He can do everything with those amazing hands. Thank you for making me love life again. Thank you for the kind and professional staff. The girls are amazing 😊

I recently had knee surgery performed by Dr. Buch, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very first consultation, Dr. Buch was professional, attentive, and clearly highly skilled. What truly stood out to me was his balance of expertise with a warm, caring demeanor—and even a great sense of humor. He took the time to answer my questions, explain the procedure, and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. I genuinely felt I was in good hands. I’m grateful for his care and would highly recommend him to anyone needing orthopedic care. A little less than 3 weeks post op, I am able to get in the pool and start driving again.

My experience with Dr. Carson at NanoKnee-Humble has been life changing. I had my first knee surgeries as a teenager resulting in lifelong pain. After NanoKnee, I am 66 years old and my pain is almost non-existent. Dr. Carson is my hero, especially since I had other orthopedic surgeons refusing to do knee replacement. I highly recommend Dr. Carson and NanoKnee.

Dr Ferro was very informative, friendly, kind, easy to talk with, concerning my interest in getting a Nano knee replacement. I live in Iowa and was very excited to learn about this less invasive procedure was available to me. I feel this is a much better option then a full knee replacement. I look forward to pain free knees. Thank you Dr Ferro and staff.

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 👍🏻

When my knee began to fail I set out to find the Knee Replacement Team that would truly care for my outcome. Nano Knee and Dr. Ferro were my choice, and I'm so glad I researched it. This is a well oiled machine. Superb, innovative surgeon, amazing administrative staff, and the PA and surgery Nurses were caring, accessable, and engaged. I am 2 week post op, and getting around well, with minimal discomfort. I fully expect to return to the activities I love, pain free.

I am so happy I chose NanoKnee! My shiny new hip works better than my old aging hip has worked for years and years. I came in from out of town and had concerns about hotel stays and getting back home after but it all went perfectly and I was up and walking right after surgery and back in my hotel. Have no no complications and hip is working perfectly. If I ever need this type of surgery again, they will be my first choice. Thanks so much to NanoKnee.
