• MRI
  There is no special preparation for an MRI exam. You may eat normally and take your any usual medication. You will not be allowed to wear anything metallic during the exam. A locker is provided for your personal items during the exam but we ask that you leave valuable at home. Do not wear jewelry. Please notify physician or your MRI technologist if you have metallic appliances such as plates/screws from a previous surgery or if you have metal fragments in or around your eye. Because of the strong magnetic field and radio frequencies, individuals who have cardiac pacemakers cannot have an MRI done unless your physician knows about the metallic appliance and has approved the MRI exam. If you have anxiety or claustrophobia please let your physician know.

  “I kept putting off knee replacement. My concern was infection and blood clots. When I shared this fear with Dr. Keith, he assured me all precautions would be taken.

I am so happy with the left knee that I am planning to get the right knee replaced soon.”
