Patient Story: Denise Erhart

Denise Erhart, Petosky, MI, is a retired nurse who worked in the hospital setting for 40 years. When she decided her knee pain was too overbearing to enjoy the things she loved, she researched the best knee surgeons in Michigan and chose Dr. Jeffrey DeClaire, founder of the Michigan Knee Institute. After a total knee replacement, Denise is pain-free, has returned to skiing and hiking, and can even keep up with her young grandson!
