  The Truth About Knee Replacement Recovery with Diana Braun 16.09.2026 59min

  What does knee replacement recovery really feel like?Diana Braun knows firsthand. After delaying surgery for nearly a decade, she ultimately underwent simultaneous bilateral total knee replacement. That experience eventually led her to co-found The Knee Zone and co-author Knee Replacement Secrets with her husband, joint replacement surgeon Dr. Raj Sinha.In this episode, Diana joins Dr. Matthew Sloan to discuss the patient side of knee replacement: how she knew it was finally time for surgery, why the mental recovery was harder than she expected, what bilateral knee replacement was really like, and why patients should think in terms of months rather than weeks when setting expectations.They also discuss sleep, prehab, swelling, compression, assistive devices, driving, stairs, preparing your home, choosing a surgeon, avoiding the temptation to do too much too soon, and the importance of identifying the activities you want to get back to before surgery.For anyone considering knee replacement, currently recovering, or caring for joint replacement patients, this conversation offers a practical and candid look at the recovery journey from someone who has lived it.For more information visit https://thekneezone.com/You can find her book Knee Replacement Secrets on Amazon at this link: https://a.co/d/0cg5WcFp

  How to Match Into Adult Reconstruction Fellowship with Bill Hamilton, MD 15.09.2026 54min

  What does it really take to match into an adult reconstruction fellowship?In Episode #47, Dr. Bill Hamilton of the Anderson Orthopaedic Clinic joins me for a practical guide for orthopedic residents preparing for fellowship. We discuss when to start preparing, what fellowship directors actually look for, research and recommendation letters, preference signaling, interview strategy, and how to build your rank list.We also explore how residents should evaluate case volume, surgical autonomy, revision exposure, fellowship culture, clinic experience, robotics, manual surgical training, and academic versus private-practice programs.Dr. Hamilton shares fascinating data from his upcoming study of the adult reconstruction fellowship match. The current environment appears increasingly applicant-friendly, with more fellowship positions available and applicants increasingly matching near the top of their rank lists. He explains why many applicants may only need 7–10 high-quality interviews rather than 15–20, and what residents should focus on instead. If you’re a PGY-2, PGY-3, or PGY-4 considering a career in hip and knee replacement, this is an episode worth saving before fellowship application season.For more information on the Learning SHAK visit https://www.learningshak.org/Current Concepts in Joint Replacement information can be found at https://www.ccjr.com/

  Jesse Otero, MD, PhD: Reinventing How We Treat Joint Replacement Infection 10.09.2026 1t 4min

  Dr. Jesse Otero, MD, PhD joins The Joint Replacement Podcast for a deep conversation about complex joint replacement, periprosthetic joint infection, research, and building a career around the patients other surgeons often find most challenging.Jesse shares the unconventional strategy he used to build a busy practice early in his career, including calling local surgeons and offering to take the revision, infection, and complex cases they did not want to manage. His first 17 cases were infected revisions, helping establish a career focused on being the surgeon other surgeons call when a case becomes difficult.He also tells the deeply personal story of his grandfather’s knee replacement complication and subsequent infection, an experience that helped redirect his career toward solving the devastating problem of PJI.We then discuss how the OrthoCarolina PJI program developed a registry containing approximately 5,500 patients, how a busy private practice can still produce high-level clinical research, and why standardizing care can transform everyday clinical practice into a research engine.Finally, Jesse breaks down their prospective randomized multicenter trial of one-stage versus two-stage exchange for chronic periprosthetic joint infection headed by his colleague Thomas K. Fehring, MD. Among 232 randomized patients, infection-free success at two years was 97% after one-stage exchange versus 91% after two-stage exchange, with the trial demonstrating noninferiority of the one-stage strategy when performed using their rigorous protocol.A fascinating discussion about surgical complexity, research, complications, resilience, and what may be the next major evolution in treating infected hip and knee replacements.

  What Does a Surgical Tech Actually Do? Inside the OR with Alyssa Ellis 02.09.2026 1t 2min

  What does a surgical technologist actually do during surgery, and how much does the team behind the surgeon affect what happens in the operating room?In this episode of The Joint Replacement Podcast, Dr. Matthew Sloan sits down with Alyssa Ellis, CST, CSFA, creator of Beyond Assisting, for a behind-the-scenes look at life in the OR.With more than 17 years of operating room experience, Alyssa explains the difference between a surgical tech and surgical first assistant, how the sterile field is created and protected, how great techs anticipate a surgeon's next move, and what separates an average surgical team from a truly high functioning one.They also tackle one of the biggest challenges facing operating rooms today: staffing. Alyssa discusses traveling surgical techs, staff turnover, training, compensation, appreciation, OR culture, and why experienced team members cannot simply be replaced without losing something important.Then the conversation turns to orthopedics: What are total hip and knee replacements like to scrub? Are revisions more fun than primary joint replacements? What makes a surgeon good to work with? What happens when something goes wrong during surgery? And if Alyssa could scrub only one operation for the rest of her career, which would she choose?Plus, the important questions: Who controls the OR music? Which specialty has the most fun? What drives surgical techs crazy? And what is the grossest operation to scrub?A fascinating look at the people patients may never remember meeting, but who play an essential role in keeping them safe during surgery.

  RACER Knee: Does Robotic Knee Replacement Actually Improve Outcomes? | Andy Metcalfe & Ed Davis 29.08.2026 58min

  The RACER Knee Trial is one of the most important randomized evaluations of robotic-assisted total knee replacement to date.The headline finding is provocative: robotic-assisted surgery was more precise, but patients did not report better outcomes at 12 months compared with conventional total knee replacement.But does that mean robots do not work?In this episode, I’m joined by RACER Knee investigators Professor Andy Metcalfe and Professor Ed Davis for an in-depth discussion of what the trial actually tells us.We examine the Forgotten Joint Score, statistical power, surgeon experience, alignment philosophy, MCL releases, patellar resurfacing, cemented versus cementless fixation, costs, study funding, and the difference between achieving greater precision and knowing exactly where that precision should take us.We also discuss one of the trial’s most fascinating observations: patients who believed they received robotic surgery had substantially higher Forgotten Joint Scores than those who believed they underwent conventional surgery, highlighting the importance of blinding and patient perception in surgical trials.Finally, Andy and Ed explain what they would change if RACER were designed today and preview what is coming next, including health economic analysis, learning-curve research, alignment analyses, and longer-term 2-, 5-, and 10-year follow-up.RACER may not be the end of the robotics debate. It may be the beginning of a much more interesting question:We have the ability to perform knee replacement with extraordinary precision. Now, do we know where we should put the knee?

  The First Month After Knee Replacement: Week-by-Week Recovery 22.08.2026 6min

  What really happens after you leave the hospital following a knee replacement?In this episode of The Joint Replacement Podcast, I walk through the first month of recovery week by week—including the physical challenges and the psychological transition that patients may not expect.We cover:• Week 1: Survival & Stability — pain, swelling, disrupted sleep, fatigue, and learning to accept help• Week 2: Variability — why recovery isn't linear and why a bad day doesn't necessarily mean you're going backward• Week 3: The Emotional Dip — when progress can feel slow, motivation falls, and discipline becomes especially important• Week 4: Momentum — when walking, strength, pain, and confidence may begin to noticeably improveI also explain the “false plateau,” why doing too much on a good day can backfire, and why pain or swelling after increased activity can sometimes be feedback rather than failure.The first month after knee replacement isn't just physical recovery. It's a transition from dependence to independence—and from uncertainty to confidence.If you're preparing for knee replacement, recovering now, or helping someone through the process, this episode gives you a practical roadmap for those critical first four weeks.For general educational purposes only. Individual recovery varies. Always follow the recommendations of your own surgical team.

  Joint Preservation and the Evolution of Hip & Knee Surgery with Atul Kamath, MD 18.08.2026 1t 9min

  What happens when a surgeon can offer both joint preservation and joint replacement?Dr. Atul Kamath joins The Joint Replacement Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about how modern hip and knee care has evolved—from anterior hip replacement and robotic surgery to hip arthroscopy, osteotomy, cartilage restoration, partial knee replacement, and outpatient surgery.This is also a personal episode for me: Dr. Kamath was one of my attendings during my orthopedic residency at Penn and one of the first surgeons to introduce me to the anterior approach to total hip replacement.We discuss how the anterior approach has evolved, why surgical experience and fundamentals still matter in the age of robotics, and how technology is allowing surgeons to increasingly personalize joint replacement. Dr. Kamath describes his evolution from traditional mechanical knee alignment toward a more individualized, technology-driven approach.We also take a deep dive into younger patients who aren't yet obvious candidates for joint replacement. Dr. Kamath explains the roles of hip arthroscopy, PAO, knee osteotomy, cartilage restoration, and partial knee replacement—and why the right procedure depends on much more than a patient's age.Finally, we tackle some of the questions patients ask every day: Can PRP or stem cells regrow cartilage? When is an osteotomy better than a partial knee replacement? What is the role of core decompression for avascular necrosis? And when has arthritis progressed far enough that joint replacement becomes the more predictable solution?A fascinating look at the continuum of modern hip and knee care—from preserving the native joint to replacing it.Educational content only and not a substitute for individualized medical advice.

  The Future of Joint Replacement with Kevin Bozic, MD, MBA 14.08.2026 45min

  What does better joint replacement care actually look like—and should success be measured by the surgery itself or by the health outcomes that matter most to the patient?In this episode of The Joint Replacement Podcast, Dr. Matthew Sloan speaks with Kevin Bozic, MD, MBA, Chair of the Department of Surgery and Perioperative Care at Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin and former President of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.Dr. Bozic explains why value-based healthcare should focus first on improving pain, function, and quality of life rather than simply reducing costs. He shares how his multidisciplinary practice integrates physical therapy, weight management, behavioral health, and patient-reported outcomes to manage the entire spectrum of hip and knee arthritis—not just surgery.They also explore bundled payments, Medicare reimbursement, the limitations of fee-for-service medicine, patient activation, appropriate surgical selection, and why the future may involve paying healthcare teams to manage a patient's condition rather than individual procedures.Finally, Dr. Bozic shares a unique perspective as both a joint replacement expert and a joint replacement patient himself, including how he chose his own surgeon and why he cared more about surgeon experience, volume, outcomes, facility quality, and trust than the specific implant or surgical approach.A fascinating conversation about what joint replacement looks like when we stop asking only “How do we perform surgery better?” and start asking “How do we improve the patient's health?”🎧 Follow The Joint Replacement Podcast for weekly conversations with leaders shaping the future of hip and knee replacement.Medical Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice.

  The Surgeon Who Became the Patient: Knee Replacement, Robotics & Recovery | Farzin Kabaei, MD 14.08.2026 56min

  What changes when a joint replacement surgeon experiences knee replacement from the other side of the operating table?Dr. Farzin Kabaei is a Los Angeles orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee replacement, complex reconstruction, and orthopedic trauma. But his perspective on joint replacement is also deeply personal. After an ACL injury as a teenager, progressive arthritis, a high tibial osteotomy, multiple surgeries, and years of worsening knee pain, he ultimately underwent a knee replacement himself.In this episode, we discuss how that experience changed the way he counsels patients about pain, expectations, timing, and recovery. We explore how to know when arthritis is truly bad enough for surgery, why an X-ray alone shouldn't determine whether you need a joint replacement, and why expectations for hip and knee replacement can be very different.Dr. Kabaei also shares his approach to robotic knee replacement, anterior hip replacement and the bikini incision, injections including cortisone, hyaluronic acid and PRP, and the role of nutrition, exercise, breathwork, and preparation in recovery.Perhaps most importantly, we hear what a knee replacement actually feels like from someone who both performs the operation and lives with one every day.🎙️ The Joint Replacement PodcastEducational content only.
