Looking to have knee replacement at Baylor Scott White. Can anyone give me some insight as to Orthopedists in the system that they are familiar with, used?

I had TKR surgery in April...Dallas based surgeon with the Carrell Clinic. I'm happy to share specifics if you'd like more info...I don't know if he is part of the BSW system.

Get ready for a significant recovery journey...early focus on range of motion...take your PT seriously. I highly suggest an ice machine as well!

Good luck!

Waco area... I used Dr. Ellis for ACL replacement. They handle Baylor athlete patients.

Had mine exactly 1 week ago. My doc isn't in the BS&W system, but I recommend the quadriceps tendon sparing procedure! In 1 week I'm walking pretty comfortably without a cane. My 1st PT visit last Thursday measured -5 on extension and 88 degree bend. I'm amazed how good the recovery has been in <1 week. I'm sure there will be a lot of work ahead, but based on what others have told me of the recovery, I'm sold on the robot-assisted quad-sparing procedure!
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
