Video Description
Watch as both Dr. Door and Dr. Dietrick explain how easy it is to diagnose whether or not you’re a candidate for joint replacement surgery. Both say a simple X-ray and then watching the patient walk down their office hall will give them enough information to put forward a diagnosis and recommendation for treatment. It is also surprising to our patients that sometimes the joint that is giving them the most trouble is not the one that needs treatment.
