The basics

Knee arthritis — do you need surgery?

Knee arthritis exists on a spectrum. Mild-to-moderate arthritis — where cartilage remains — is where non-surgical, regenerative care can be worth exploring, especially if cortisone or gel injections have worn off. End-stage, bone-on-bone arthritis is a different story, and for that a replacement may genuinely be the right call. We'll tell you which you have, honestly, at no charge.

Honest candidacy

Are you a good candidate?

Non-surgical, regenerative care works best when there's still tissue to work with. We'll tell you the truth — for free.
