LAURENT ROUX

Grateful Patient

Laurent has had five surgeries at St John’s Health over 40 years, and has consistently received excellent care.

Laurent Roux’s knee replacement surgery was so successful he was discharged the same day. He recounts that immediately after his surgery, the nurses came into his room and explained it was standard protocol to start walking right away. He was not only up and taking steps, he was walking so fast that his spotter could barely keep up. He was able to go home that day, he says with a twinkle in his eye. Best of all, he says he is now skiing like he’s 17 years old again.

“They are all-stars. We are lucky to have what we have here."
