Is there an age limit for knee surgery?

Dr. Hurt’s answer: age is just a number, what really matters is the patient’s overall health.

This 93-year-old was hurting before surgery, having trouble walking, and thinking twice anytime she needed to get up and go.

Six weeks later, she’s moving much better than before, doing her exercises, and says she’d do it all over again.

For the right patient, the right care changes everything, at any age.
