A few months ago, getting up from a chair or walking across the yard felt impossible for some of our knee replacement patients.

Now, thanks to the TMINI®️ Miniature Robotic System and the Persona®️ The Personalized Knee®️ System, they’re moving with less pain, and more confidence.

This handheld robotic device works with your surgeon to create a knee replacement that’s tailored just for you, using a 3D model of your knee for the best possible fit and function. The surgeon stays in full control, but with the added precision and accuracy that this new technology brings.

If knee pain is slowing you down, it might be time to explore your options.

When Bailey Barton’s son, Holland, was born at just 28 weeks, the Forrest General NICU became her second home for 72 days. She walked through those doors as a mom, now she walks through them as a registered nurse.

Bailey returned to school to become a NICU nurse because she knows exactly what it feels like to be on the other side of the glass. “It’s a superpower that allows me to lead with grace, advocate fiercely, and connect deeply with every parent I meet,” she says.

She once walked the halls of Forrest General’s NICU as a mom of a 2-pound preemie. Today, Bailey Barton walks them as a NICU nurse who uses her own journey to care for other families.
