Patient Reviews
Feb 11, 2025
Dr. Balkissoon performed knee replacements on both of my knees last year. 1st was in July, and the 2nd was in November. Dr. Balkissoon spent many appointments prior to surgery answering questions and preparing me for a full successful recovery. He explained the possible risks involved withe the procedure and all the stages i would encounter during recovery. Since surgery I have a new life. I was able to hike at Letchworth in September during a camping trip after the July surgery and now preparing more trips in 2025. Dr. Balkissoon cares about his patients and makes sure you have all the knowledge for a successful recovery.
