This video is about preparing you in the best possible way for your hip or knee replacement surgery: discussing ways to increase your chance of a great outcome, but also anticipating some common problems.
Full disclaimer, this whiteboard was made in 2013 so the "recent" research it mentions might not be the most up to date. Still the general messaging remains the same and I hope this video can complement some of the questions you're already having with your care team.
Thanks for watching!
