Knee Pain
“ Once again I was experiencing some bad knee pain from osteoarthritis and based on my past history with Coordinated Health they were my first choice. Dr, Ferrante chose a series of three injections of Euflexxa. After receiving my third injection the pain has almost disappeared. My thanks to Dr. Ferrante and his staff for making my life easier. ”

Dr. Ferrante gave me my life back!
“ As a young girl I played soccer for years and had many injuries. By the time I reached my mid thirties, I could not bend either knee or stand for too long, without terrible pain. My quality of life was poor and my 9 year old daughter suffered because of it. I tried to hold out as long as I could because I was so young, but after almost 10 years I couldn't take the pain any longer and went to see Dr. Ferrante. On December 21, 2015, he performed a bi-lateral knee replacement and on December 25th I was released to rehab. By December 30th I was home from rehab and four weeks later, I was back to work! The surgery and choosing Dr. Ferrante were the best decisions I ever made. ”

Successful Rehabilitation
“ I had knee replacement surgery. Performed by Dr. Ferrante, October 21,2016 and then had to undergo a manipulation a few weeks later. I cannot thank the Coordinated Health team enough for all they've done during my recovery. I would especially like to thank my therapists Julius "Ken" and Michael. They were very patient and understanding, pushing me when I needed it. I couldn't have done it without such a great team behind me!!! Thank you! ”
