I'm very happy with the results from my Total knee replacement surgery. I used the X-10 machine after the surgery religiously like I was supposed to. I had 128 degrees flexion after 4 weeks of of using the X-10 and going to PT. After 4 months of doing PT on my own at home I can do anything that I could do before my knee needed replaced. I can't explain how Happy I am with the outcome of the surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Daniel Masko for TKR surgery.

This is the first major surgery I’ve ever had. And I couldn’t have felt more confident and comfortable with Dr. Mesco. I appreciate his thoroughness and explanation of the process and answering all questions I had. The wait time was very reasonable and the staff courteous and helpful. Would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Mesco to any family or friends I’m so grateful for people like him who have dedicated their life to helping others.
