Comments: I call it “The miracle on 17th street.” After having 4 different consults, I decided to have Anterior Hip Replacement surgery with Dr. Davidovitch. It is absolutely terrific to have my former life style restored. No more pills for pain relief, inability to walk distances, discomfort sitting in the theatre, movies or car. Back to walking through museums and not worrying about how far away I’m parked from my destinations. My surgery was on a Thursday, and I was home for lunch on Saturday. Wow – who could ask for anything better. At home I used a cane and was up and down the stairs in my house with no problem – one at a time for a while. Really no pain – more like muscle soreness. May be a need for Thlenol occasionally. The week after my surgery, my husband took me to the mail a few times to walk for exercise. Not a power talk, but definitely exercise. Two weeks post-surgery was my follow-up appointment to have the stitches removed. It was then that I was given permission to drive. Yippee – “Independence Day.” My new hip is my very best friend (next to Dr. D.). How fortunate to live in these times when we can replace our worn-out parts. Sincerely, Very satisfied.
