"I have been suffering from severe arthritis from both hips and after a few opinions, I decided to have surgery done. I selected the Hospital For Special Surgery because someone I knew had recommended me to do so. I met with Dr Seth Jerabek and his team for all the necessary details prior to the surgery. On the day of the surgery every thing went perfect, the surgery was a real success, the staff was very dedicated and professional. "

"In 1998, I was diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis of the right hip. Being 36 years old at the time this was a devastating bit of news when I was told nothing could be done at that point other than a total hip replacement. I am almost 12 years post op right now and thanks to him and your fantastic hospital resumed my life as if nothing happened. I am able to do many of the same activities as I had before the surgery."

"It was when I realized that soon I would not be able to tie my shoes that I decided it was time to act. The operation and physical therapy could not have gone better. I did suffer from what i believe were very tight "hip flexors" and hot yoga helped resolve that problem. A year later, I ran a 5 mile Turkey Trot. I bought a new bicycle and have resumed "cautious" skiing. "
