In this episode, I sit down with Maurice Neligan, a leading orthopaedic surgeon, to explore everything from knee pain and joint preservation to the latest advancements in joint replacement surgery. We break down what actually happens during surgery, how modern materials are improving outcomes, and the critical role of prehabilitation in setting patients up for success.

Maurice shares expert insights on managing joint health, including physiotherapy strategies, lifestyle modifications, and alternative treatments that could help delay or even avoid surgery. We also discuss recovery timelines, realistic expectations after joint replacement, and the importance of patient education in making informed decisions about treatment.

Whether you're dealing with joint pain, considering surgery, or just want to better understand how to protect your joints as you age, this episode is packed with practical advice and expert knowledge to help you stay active and pain-free. Tune in for an insightful conversation on keeping your joints – and overall mobility – in the best shape possible!
