Are Doctors Trying to Turn Us into Borg?

Medicine has come a long way, but still has a long way to go, however, modern technology and procedures are pretty incredible.  Because of arthritis and other wear and tear to our joints they sometimes need replacing.  What do we do? Well we create new tissue out of some high quality synthetic material, slice open the knee and stick it on in.  For those of you who are not Star Trek fans, Borg are creatures that are half human and half machine.  They are evil of course, and fly around turning more people into Borg.  Anyway, thinking about knee replacements and seeing a doctor place screws in someones back makes one wonder.  At some point will we be able to replace every piece of our body?  Medicine is an amazing field that allows one to live longer and hopefully better lives.  Medicine will continue to advance and create more opportunities for humans to heal.  I am honored to watch these amazing doctors do there work.  Below is a video of a knee replacement.
