I saw this 'doctor' for months with a clear understanding that I wanted a partial knee replacement based on the condition of my knee, my age and general very good health. He agreed in every conversation we had with the exception of the time that doctor Krause was in the room with us as well. On the last visit before the scheduled surgery, he told me that if I refused the full knee replacement procedure, he refused to operate and do the procedure for me. What doctor does this! In my experience with him, he lacks integrity, honesty and doesn't keep his word. He also misread the X-ray (or worse) according to the doctor who ultimately did the partial replacement for me who reviewed my knee and said he would have never recommended a full knee procedure for the exact reasons I stated. By the way, after my procedure, I was walking within 3-weeks and feel 1000% better than I did before the procedure. Trust and honoring ones word is an absolute requirement in the medical field. If a doctor won't listen to you and respect your wishes, proceed with caution.
