Forty five years of tennis totally wrecked my left knee. Just one set and I was in agony. Even getting in and out of the car was painful. A knowledgeable tennis pro referred me to Dr. Andrew Noble at PBOI. His solution: a total knee replacement. Stupidly, I put off surgery for six months which severely worsened my condition. It’s been ten weeks since the operation and my mobility has increased remarkably. With physical therapy, light jogging and bike riding, I’m slowly working my way back into tennis. Dr. Noble is an exceptionally gifted and highly trained surgeon who truly cares for his patients. He’s been there each step of the way for me. I plan to soundly defeat him in tennis in about six weeks.
On Nov 29 2011 I had partial knee resurfacing performed by Dr. Andrew Noble. I had been procrastinating for 3 years regarding this surgery, feeling very apprehensive about having it done. I spent 3 years seeing other orthopedic surgeons who insisted that I needed full knee replacement. I did not agree. After much research I discovered partial knee resurfacing and felt that I was a candidate. Since not all orthopedic surgeons perform this state-of-the-art surgery, my search was on to find someone here in Palm Beach County who could accommodate me. Hence, I was referred to Dr. Noble. I made an appointment with Dr. Noble, he did all the preliminary x-rays and agreed that I was truly a candidate for partial knee resurfacing. I found Dr. Noble’s bedside manner to be outstanding. His concern for his patients is beyond measure, being a doctor who REALLY LISTENS to what his patients are telling him. His surgical precision and after surgery follow-up are impeccable. He is truly amazing not only with his surgical expertise, but his doctor/patient communication. I would absolutely, and without hesitation, highly recommend Dr. Noble. My only regret is that I did not find him 3 years ago in order to save myself 3 years of unbearable pain. I am so blessed to have found him.
Had MAKOPlasty on the 8th of Jan. I am completely satisfied with the results, only complaint was that I didn’t have it done sooner.
I was coming to PBOI for second opinion and concerns I was having regarding my upcoming arthroscopic knee surgery another physician was preparing for. After my verbalizing to Dr. Noble about my current concerns, he read the reports and read the films and concurred that we take a different approach. After his compassionate understanding and in office procedure, I stepped off the table and had no pain, and in 2 days following, my swelling had dissipated. What an amazing experience. I am thankful to Dr. Noble and staff for their honesty and less invasive treatment for now. Maybe in the future I will require surgery, but for now, I’m one happy person
Thought Mike was excellent in his pre-exam, very friendly, caring about my problem & my comfort. Dr. Noble was excellent, very friendly, explaining my knee problem thoroughly & giving a painless injection. The X-Ray Tech also very friendly & caring. Since she was the first to help, I was impressed already with the experience & looked forward to seeing Dr. Noble. A great experience for me & I will definitely recommend your office to others. Thank you Mike, Dr. Noble & the X-ray tech.
Dr. Noble is fantastic!! Very knowledgeable and up on the newest treatments and technologies, he has a great bedside manner and wasn’t quick to push surgery went over all the options and recommended the conservative approach which worked out great. He spends a ton of time and answers all the questions asked of him. Have heard from many others that he is a terrific surgeon as well. For a knee or hip I would recommend Dr. Noble highly for surgery or for an opinion it is so wonderful to have a Harvard trained orthopedist here in south Florida!!
I had suffered for two years with serious pain in my left knee. Two other surgeons preformed arthroscopic surgery on my knee with no positive results. I then found Dr. Andrew Noble. At my first appointment he watched the way that I walked and asked me, “have you ever had a hip x-ray?” I told him “no, that my pain was in my left knee.” He said that I would have one that day. After the x-ray he found that my left leg was 1″ shorter than my right and my hip ball socket had bore it’s way deep into my pelvis. We had surgery 1 month later and my pelvis had to be rebuilt and my hip replaced. He said,” my hip was causing referred pain down into my knee.” I have just had my 1 year anniversary since the surgery and my quality of life has been restored. My wife and I are leaving for Alaska and our 40th anniversary vacation at the end of may. Without Dr. Noble I would never have been able to take this vacation. Thank you Dr. Noble for everything.
