Knee replacement patient stories
Inspiring real-life experiences
Gilbert G.
Gilbert G. was the first patient to benefit from the NextAR™ application for his knee replacement. A year later, after undergoing surgery on his other knee, he tells how he has fully regained his quality of life.
“It's perfect. I took my mountain bike out yesterday and did 12 miles.”
Gilbert G.
“We believe that the better we reproduce the anatomy of the knee in terms of bone, and in terms of ligament tension, the more likely we are to achieve good results.”
