Hi Dr. Garin, This is Mark from California. You performed knee replacement surgery for me on Sept. 1 of this year. I just wanted to thank you for being the great doctor that you truly are. I am healing beautifully. The swelling in my knee continues to go down and my knee gets stronger on a daily basis. I am back to weight lifting, exercising my knee on a stationary bike and doing work around my ranch which includes cutting down dead trees for fire wood, carrying large and heavy logs out of the river bottom, mowing weeds and lawn, and other chores needed. My knee handles all these activities beautifully and I am even considering a hunting trip this January. By the way, I have also been playing golf and the knee has performed well here as well. The knee is not 100% yet, but I am definitely on my way. Thank you Dr. Garin for helping me to get back my active life and making the pain a distant memory. My wife and I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas.
