Dr. Deland changed my life. After receiving my first ankle replacement in 1977 at age 29, I had continual pain for years. At age 67, I was barely able to walk. I chose Dr. Deland to perform my second replacement at Hospital for Special Surgery. It was the best decision I ever made. I experienced little to no pain and am now able to enjoy my daily activities. I decided not to retire as I am now able to work every day at my construction company. I have the deepest respect and praise for Dr. Deland.
