Why the Jiffy Knee™

A smarter path to a new knee

Muscle & Tendon Sparing

Instead of cutting through muscle and tendon, the technique gently moves them aside — preserving the tissue that powers your recovery.

Smaller Incision

A 4–6 inch incision compared to the 10–12 inches typical of traditional total knee replacement.

Designed for Faster Recovery

Many patients are up and walking the same day and back to daily activities sooner. Individual results vary.

Personalized, Local Care

Every step — consultation, surgery, and follow-up — is led by Dr. Jeffrey Peterson right here in Middle Tennessee.
