.I had a total knee replacement, and two months later I noticed my leg was misaligned, outward. I thought it was because my leg was weak and needed time and more exercise. I had an appointment three months after my surgery, but I was seen by another practitioner who had no idea why my leg was in that position. So, I asked to see Dr. Distefano. When finally at the fourth month after my surgery I saw him, he told me that my leg would stay misaligned because it was the best alignment for me. His response disappointed me; he simply dismissed my concerns without giving any importance to the position of my leg.

Had knees replaced Oct, 2016. I would give him 6 stars if available. I was able to drive 2 1/2 weeks after surgery. If you follow his orders, he will take great care of you.
