Testimonials

“I had been dealing with knee pain for years. After researching several options, I decided to travel to Monterrey to have my knee replaced by Dr. Andrés Acosta. From the very beginning, I felt in good hands. The doctor explained the procedure to me in detail and instilled a lot of confidence in me. The healthcare team was incredibly professional and supported me throughout the entire process. The surgery was a success, and the best part is that I started walking almost immediately. Today, I can enjoy activities I previously thought would no longer be possible. Thank you all for changing my life.”

Exploring Candidacy for Joint Replacement

Most patients who undergo total knee replacement are between the ages of 50 and 80, but age is not the determining candidacy factor—pain and disability are. You may be a candidate for total knee replacement or partial knee replacement if you have:

A knee deformity
Knee pain when resting
Severe knee pain or stiffness that impedes daily activities

Inflammation and swelling that do not improve with medications or rest
Exhausted nonsurgical treatment options like medication, injections, and physical therapy
