"I am 80 years old and have had my right knee replaced twice and the left once.  I can honestly say Dr. Kelly has made it possible for me to dance again, yes I said DANCE!  I recently was having trouble with my last surgery which was 8 years ago and thought I had injured it.  Dr. Kelly x-rayed it for me and found it was perfectly fine.  He suggested I read a book called "Younger Next Year".  I was already going to the gym maybe twice a week, now after reading that book and the pep talk I received from Dr. Kelly, now I go five times a week religously.  I feel AWESOME!! I can not say enought good about Doc Kelly.  My children (all 12) just gave me a surprise 80th birthday party where I danced all night with 5 of my sons!!! :) THANK YOU Dr. Kelly!" - Virginia T., Omaha, NE
