I am a professional boxer….

Dr. Berman and the Arlington Orthopedic Surgery Center really helped me in a very crucial time of my career. I am a professional boxer, and I won the Season 2 Contender series with Sugar Ray Leonard on ESPN. While fighting on the show, I had a lot of pain in my right knee. The pain was so bad that I knew I had to get it checked out. After visiting with Doctor Berman and looking at the x-rays, he informed me that I had a huge pot hole under my knee cap. He said I would need a total knee replacement, but I was too young. We weighed out our options and decided to try a newer procedure called a Carticel implant. We proceeded with the procedure and I was out of the boxing game for two years while the cells regenerated in my knee. After receiving great care from Doctor Berman and his staff, I came back and won the IBO Continental Belt, and I did it pain free. I am 42 years old, and my knee is doing great. I am still one of the top fighters in the game. Thank you, Doctor Berman and your staff, for all your care and a job well done.
