COOLIEF (Cooled Radiofrequency Ablation)

Has anyone had COOLIEF (Cooled Radiofrequency Ablation) for an arthritic hip or knee? A man on another forum had one instead of knee or hip replacement and highly recommended it. He had his done in Texas but I believe there are accredited drs in many states for this procedure. Has anyone heard of or had it done for their hip or knee?

No I haven't but I'd certainly be interested particularly if there is any application to an arthritic shoulder.
