We are proud to announce the successful completion of Charlotte County's first smart knee procedure in healthcare. “I came for the best,” said Rebecca Rebecca Sedar. “That’s why I chose Fawcett Hospital and Dr. Reiss.” Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Reiss has introduced a new type of knee replacement that features Bluetooth technology. This innovative device records data daily and transmits it to a cloud-based platform. With this technology, physicians can monitor various aspects, such as a patient’s range of motion and gait, helping to identify any abnormal movements that may require additional follow-up care. We are proud to have hospitals ranked in the top five percent in the nation for overall orthopedic services and joint replacement, as well as hospitals recognized as Five-Star Recipients for Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement by Healthgrades.
