RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE !!!
Posted , 13 users are following.
Looking for recommendations for a hip surgeon. It seems no-one wants to name surgeon or hospital where they have experienced either good or bad results.
I always seek personal recommendations and check reviews before making choices.
For this most important choice of my life I am not finding any answers.
Please help!

I had mine done in November 15 at the Royal Fee Hospital in Hampstead, NW3. My surgeon was brilliant he took in every fear I had and made it better, promised me I will walk normally again and I am. Cannot spell his name, but it is Mr Man!!!!!
Wonderful man.

At age 80 myself I know that after 60 one is not quite so steady physically, though experience counts for a great deal.
Can you tell me the name of the youger man?
Really appreciate your input.
Many thanks

Ortho Surgeon was no a great communicator but great surgeon with great bedside manners - He has since retired !

Getting there, still not quite sure, such a scaredy-cat.
Hope you are getting better, I think the role of the muscles is so key to the whole process.
I believe pyysio therapy can help before and after.
Best regards

what is the alternative for you ? Would you be okay with the way things are right now and knowing that it will get worse, not better ?
You probably have a high pain level or no pain at all, just the heavy limp.
Have you talked to an Orthopedic Surgeon at all? How long ago sincce your last x-rays?
I am sure you made a "pro- and con THR surgery" list -
If you are not ready, maybe give it a rest - I usually give it, gift-wrapped with pretty bow, to God -
