Fact or Fiction? You should not kneel after total knee replacement surgery. This is FICTION!

It is safe to kneel on knee replacements, and you will not damage the implants, however it can be uncomfortable.

Kneeling is an important part of normal life. To regain the ability to kneel after knee replacement, you should start a desensitization program early in your recovery.

A legacy of innovation. A future of movement.

More than a generation ago, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Frank Alvine helped pioneer one of the first modern total ankle replacement systems—introducing a surgical option that relieves pain while preserving joint motion.

Today, that legacy continues at Orthopedic Institute.

Gregory F. Alvine, MD; Gregory M. Neely, MD; and Eric S. Watson, MD are building on that foundation—helping patients across South Dakota and the surrounding region reduce chronic pain, restore mobility, and return to the activities that matter most.

Total ankle replacement remains one of the most specialized procedures in orthopedic surgery. For the right patients, it offers an alternative to fusion by relieving pain while preserving movement—supported by advances in implant technology and surgical technique.
