A Patient Guide to Knee Surgery

This is the handbook we share with all of our knee surgery patients. It offers guidance on how knee surgery can help, how it is performed, what you can expect after knee surgery, and answers to a variety of questions -- large and small -- that our patients have confronted in our experience.

We are happy to share this guide with you, at no cost. You may download a copy from this Web site. This file is in the Portable Document Format (PDF) and requires the free Adobe Reader.

If you wish to receive a printed copy via U.S. Mail, please call our office at (573) 882-6762 or e-mail Rachel Stockman at stockmanr@health.missouri.edu.

Sincerely,

B. Sonny Bal, M.D., M.B.A.
