Knee replacement surgery can sound daunting, but you deserve to live pain-free. Enter: An innovative approach known as the Subvastus technique, which speed ups recovery and downtime.

Now offered by Mission Orthopedic Trauma, the Subvastus technique requires the surgeon to work beneath the quadriceps muscle rather than cutting through the quadriceps tendon.

This gentler approach allows for a more comfortable recovery, and gets you back to the activities you love safely and faster.
