One cannot generalize or project from anecdotes.
In most cases, it can be wise to get several evaluations & opinions. It would be wise to have a PM&MR evaluation or a Rheumatology consult BEFORE deciding on surgery. Or, on a specific Surgeon.
And,
All surgeries are not the same.
Some 20 years back, a friend in the LRGV did need bilateral knee surgeries. I tried to send him to a Surgeon @ Methodist in TMC, but he wanted to stay near home & went to a guy in Harlingen.
The guy did the old 3-piece prosthesis implants & Friend was in severe pain for weeks.
Then he learned that the newer & much less painful 5-piece surgeries would have been done in Houston, & he could have avoided most of the torture.
If one is to undergo any very serious, painful, & life-altering procedure; one should do their homework first.
Additionally, remember that in modern Medicine, things can & do change rapidly. Don’t decide without learning of ALL OPTIONS.
Since you are around H-Town, i specifically recommend you speak with Dr. H.B. Spangler @ Green Oak MRI at Humble, TX. Dr. Spangler taught MSK Diagnosis @ both Baylor & U T Houston for years. He doesn’t operate, but can direct you to the best specialists. Be warned, he is very hard of hearing.

I know this is just anectdotal............but
My mom (82) had shoulder replacement and a friend (60 something) also did it and both had incredibly good outcomes.
