Your Hip Treatment, Your Choice

For those suffering with osteoarthritis or other hip disease, total hip replacement can be life changing. Modern techniques and implants mean that we as surgeons can provide patients with a hip which is individually designed to provide the best function and longevity possible. Minimized tissue dissection and intensive post operative care mean that immobilization is often less than a few hours, and discharge home can be within two to three days. Use of sticks can be as short as two to three weeks, and driving is regained by four to six weeks in most cases. Eventual function can be remarkable, and Stephen has patients who, with hip replacements in situ have competed for Great Britain in the World Championships in Triathlon and Fencing, and many more cycle and swim competitively up to international level.
