Annette’s Knee Replacement Surgery Journey
What this video covers

She talks about her consultation with the surgeon, being reassured about having an epidural, and says she felt no pain during the operation. She describes physiotherapy starting the day after surgery, being helped to walk, and recovering at the retreat afterward, praising the staff, food and surroundings.
