Topic Info
We all feel the effects of moving into middle age. Minor injuries take longer to heal, joints creak and grind as we go up and down stairs, and our knees ache after a day of work or play. Dr. Nathan Cohen, an orthopedic surgeon on staff at Memorial Hospital, discusses the HemiCAP® WAVE implant, a minimally-invasive treatment option that creates a smooth surface for the kneecap to move freely without pain.
