Simply stated, my pain has been relieved thanks to You!

Simply stated, my pain has been relieved thanks to You! After 18 months of pain, distress and sleep deprivation, I am pleased to report that after being under your care and having hip arthroscopy surgery, I am pain free in my left hip.

From my very first visit, I was so impressed by your thoughtful listening and your patience in managing my case on terms that best suited my personal needs. After evaluating my symptoms, you suggested that I had a labral tear, hip impingement issues and some possible bursitis in my left hip – which was later confirmed with an MRI Arthrogram. Your recommendation was for me to have the Arthroscopic Hip surgery and you clearly and understandably presented the reasons and considerations for this. As a busy working mom with 2 young children who also loves to be active (aerobics, dancing, walking and yoga) – the thought of surgery seemed out of the question. I was so appreciative that you helped me explore and exhaust alternatives such as physical therapy and acupuncture prior to scheduling surgery.

Following my surgery 3 ½ months ago, I instantly felt some relief which increased with each day. The first few weeks of recovery were a challenge, but I was diligent with my PT, and it was worth every minute of hard work. I never imagined that I would be able to go back to my fitness routine within 4 months—but in fact; my recovery is ahead of schedule! While I have occasional soreness and realize I will continue healing, I am ecstatic to report that the nasty, nagging pain that kept me awake at night has been alleviated.

Thank you again for being such a talented, skilled surgeon, and for your time and dedication to your patients. I have tremendous respect for you as an orthopedic doctor, and appreciate your progressive approach to hip and joint preservation. You have restored my quality of life and I am forever grateful.
