Ranawat Orthopedics: Difelice Gregory MD

"Dr. DiFelice is a top quality doctor, and surgeon, with an excellent staff. Everyone in the office has been great and made this process so easy for me. I went to Dr. DiFelice with a torn acl and meniscus. I had an acl surgery on my other knee years before using my patella tendon so I expected a similar process. Dr. DiFelice informed me of an acl REPAIR surgery that he prefers to do if conditions allow and gave me a few presentations to look at. I was impressed at the benefits this surgery offered. Most of all I liked keeping the original ligament, and in it's original natural position. As an athlete, I wanted the strongest option and Dr. DiFelice understood my concern. He showed me cases of athletes returning to sports with years of continued success. I agreed to the procedure. I've had 2 surgeries before this one. By far this was the easiest surgery and with zero pain. Went to sleep and woke up in the recovery room. Besides a little reasonable discomfort, it was the most painless procedure I've ever had. Post surgery I didn't take a single pain killer. Didn't need it. This part might not appeal to everyone, but I really appreciated getting pictures from the doctor of inside my knee taken during the surgery to be able to see exactly how the ligaments and meniscus looked before and after the procedure. As a craftsman, I can appreciate the neatness of the work done. After months of PT and strength training, I can appreciate the integrity of the job. Today I have my full range of motion back and strength returned. I enjoy being able to walk around day to day with stability and without pain. I'm being conservative about returning to contact sports, but I plan to do that soon enough. Grateful to Dr. DiFelice and his staff."
