Hip Replacement
"My experience was great starting with Dr. Boachie and his wonderful office staff (Lindy, Tom, Theresa and Cynthia). They were always helpful with any of my questions or concerns and would always calm my fears. The wonderful care continued at HSS.

My anesthesiologist Dr. Michael Urban was wonderful and checked on me days after to monitor my pain."
