A Soft Tissue Preservation Technique

An Alternative Method to Traditional
Knee Replacement

Are you seeking a knee replacement procedure that offers a faster recovery time and minimal invasiveness? Look no further than Jiffy Knee. Our innovative technique is designed with your comfort and well-being in mind, ensuring a swift return to your active lifestyle.

Unlike traditional knee replacement methods, Jiffy Knee surgeons prioritize muscle and tendon preservation. We don’t cut any muscles or tendons during the procedure. Instead, we employ specialized instruments and techniques to gently “lift” the muscle and slide it aside. With only the skin and capsule being cut, our approach minimizes trauma and accelerates healing.

Innovative
Technique

The Jiffy Knee replacement technique offers patients, —especially those who may have previously delayed traditional anterior approach knee replacement surgery due to fear, anxiety, or uncertainty—a less painful and faster-recovery alternative. My clinical team and I are excited to offer this game-changing knee replacement technique to patients in Arizona and beyond.

Benefits of
The Jiffy Knee™

One of the key benefits of choosing Jiffy Knee is the remarkably short surgery time. Our streamlined process typically takes just 30 minutes to implant, significantly reducing time spent in the operating room and under anesthesia.

But what truly sets Jiffy Knee apart is the opportunity for less pain and a quicker recovery. By preserving vital muscle and tendon structures, our technique minimizes post-operative discomfort and enables you to get back on your feet sooner.
