Joan, a registered nurse and mother of six, developed arthritis in her knees. Her arthritis limited her mobility to the point where she could barely walk. She got total knee replacement surgery at Oregon Surgical Institute and says, “Now that I have some new joints, I’m able to do the things with my grandchildren that I was able to do with my children.”

Gary and Jan each got one of their hips replaced at Oregon Surgical Institute. Their children now jokingly refer to them as “hipsters.” After their successful hip replacement surgeries, they have been able to pursue their passion for traveling and taking road trips to multiple national parks, including the Grand Canyon. Jan says, “We had a lot of education about the process…I felt very supported by OSI.”
