Dr. Berger & Teddy Koukoulis on WFTS

In this segment on WFTS Morning Blend, Dr. Berger, a world-renowned orthopedic surgeon at Midwest Orthopedics at Rush, explains how his muscle-sparing hip and knee replacement technique helps patients recover faster with less pain and more natural movement. After delaying surgery for nearly a decade, Teddy underwent Dr. Berger’s minimally invasive procedure and was back to golfing just three weeks later.
