My poor 91 year old mom i believe was his last knee replacement. She has been in agony for a year and a half. Hasnt slept in a bed the entire time. went from pain in her knee to the whole right side from the foot to the hip. Lots of missed sleep mentally declining. I miss a night sleep and im miserable shes missed hundreds. I hope we dont get a bill for this..I havent been able to leave her but a few hours a month as her sole caregiver. He did a fine job with her knee but didnt know she had a bad back and bone on bone in her hip. He should have xrayed her 6 months prior when she fell. He would have known what he was working on. She was not able to rehab the knee because of the condition of her hip. Now it feels like a knife stabbing her knee she can barely move..I just wish when I brought her in specifically for xrays that hed done so. She may have made it to 100 but now its one hard day at a time.

DR. DURHAM is a great doctor and person.What makes him a great doctor is because he cares about his patients well being. I went to see Dr. Durham about my knee hurting and he made me feel better, did x-rays to find out what was wrong and once he had the x-rays back explained what I had to do to get ready for my knee replacement. Dr . Durham explained why I needed to have my knee replaced and we very caring. I would recommend Dr. Durham to my family and friends. And I am proof Dr. Durham truly cares about his patients.
