So you've been a patient in that program for over a year? Almost a year, yeah. I've got Linda McCluskey here. She's one of our favorite patients here at Pinnacle. Well, thank you. She's been an amazing patient. Linda. We've been together. I've been taking care of you for a number of years. A number of years. Knee replacement in 2018. Yeah, so we did a right knee replacement on Linda McCluskey in 2018. So in case anybody wonders, we still do knee replacements when we need to. Our preference is to try and help people not have knee replacements. That's. And that was absolutely Ms. Linda's preference with her left knee. So she is a diamond patient which means that she has been through orthobiologics treatments for her left knee. She's also in our metabolic optimization program. So you've been a patient in that program for over a year. Almost a year. That makes sense. Yes.
