I couldn't be happier. I'm back to teaching karate to kids and I hope to test for my black belt within the year. Frankly I'm just happy to be walking up and down stairs pain-free. |

I was plagued for years with osteoarthritis in my left knee. Gardening, lawn mowing, and walking the dog were no longer possible without debilitating
pain. I am now back to walking the dog, and shoveling snow with ease. I even helped my husband paint our house at the end of the summer. I am totally enamored of Mid Coast Hospital! |

Before my surgery I had osteoarthritis in both knees. A skiing accident two years ago dislocated my left knee cap and accelerated the arthritic process.
It was pretty discouraging to have no quality of life at age 50! Ten days after surgery I was back on my exercise bike. I've lost 10 pounds, and I'm ready now to have the right knee replaced. |

The care and treatment I received during my hip replacement surgery was nothing but outstanding. The surgical team, staff of nurses, and therapists,
as well as administrative personnel, could not have been more professional, efficient, and friendly. Your new facilities are impressive to say the least. |
