I had a left THR done on 4/25 and am EXTREMELY satisfied with it. Yes you need to be mentally and physically ready for this surgery. You remind me of my surgeon and having total confidence with your surgeon is half the battle. He gave me several 8.5x11 pics of my hip (different angles/before and after) to which I found fascinating (I asked for pics lol). The pic he took in the OR is exactly like the one you showed. Thank you for posting this video. I'm sure it will put as LOT of people at ease. I, for one, did a lot of research on my anterior approach to prepare myself as well as tons of questions for my surgeon. God bless you and the work that you do 😁

I really appreciate your newest videos! Perhaps you might do one on how those of us who live out of town can choose you as their hip replacement surgeon or is that not feasible or recommended? Steve in Kettering OH.

I had a compressed femoral nerve and almost total palsey in my quad after direct anterior approach

Oh wow. Was that caused by swelling after surgery or something else? Did you recover from that?
