I'm certain you're grossly understating the time for that.


No, mine was just a partial knee replacement. I asked my doc how long it would take and he said I would spend about 15 minutes on the table. He’s the best knee and hip surgeon in the state and did a fine job. He had six surgeries scheduled that day.

He lied or you misinterpreted him. And often uni arthroplasties take longer than totals. Either way if he’s taking 15 minutes skin to skin then thats too quick. A water tight skin closure to protect against infection in and of itself prob takes at least 5-10 mins.
