I had a total hip replacement on Good Friday and now, nearly 10 weeks later I am walking without pain and able to live an active life again
Advice about the procedure was accurate and reassuring.
There was quite a lot of discomfort for the first two weeks, obviously, but with the exercise programme mobility and confidence increased quickly.
I am very pleased that Mr Westerman carried out my op. He exudes confidence through his clear no nonsense manner.
Advice about pre-op exercise and post-op exercise was excellent. With hindsight I was not not as clear as I needed to be about what movements, sleeping positions etc I should NOT attempt in the first few weeks. Well worth asking this question explicitly!
