Knee Joint Replacement Surgery by Experienced Orthopedic Surgeon

When the knee wears out, motion can be restored and pain relieved with a knee replacement. Dr. Robert Klenck is the doctor at Pasadena Orthopedics who specializes in joint replacement using methods to significantly decrease pain after surgery so motion and function can be regained very shortly after surgery.
