Answer 1

The seas around Barbados have always thought to posess a certain healing power to them.  The former US president George Washington even took his sick brother to Barbados....

Also being in the water can help you because gravity is not as strong so you wont have your full weight on the knee joint yet you can still flex it and exercise it.  I would say give it a shot....  

Also, if you can remember back in 1998 just after Bill Clinton's knee injury, his surgery, and his recovery he too went to Barbados....  Not a bad place I would check it out also Barbados has a decent hospital just incase.  If nervous get some health care insurance for your trip when you do....

Also Tony Blair's son had surgery done in Barbados.  And you know-- if the British Prime Minister didn't trust Barbados's hospital they would have shipped him back to the UK...

The main hospital in Barbados is

the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH)
