Tell him to do some research and pick a hospital and a Doc that does many a day. Any doc will be installing what they learned on in thier residency so a orthopedic surgeon in a busy practice is a must.
I sold for DePuy that was bought by J&J and now have a class action big lawsuit against them. Zimmer is another leading mnfctr from Indiana that has good info:
