Hip Replacement
Herniated Disc
"Milling around around in crowds peering at ancient artifacts doesn't make for a stunning image to illustrate my first steps back to the life I love, but keep in mind that 2-1/2 hours standing on hard museum floors is a good test of knee recovery."
Knee Replacement
"I no longer walk bent over and for the first time stand straight. What a miracle."
Hip Replacement
"I had a total knee replacement in September, 2010. Prior to surgery I was in continual pain, and unable to lead an active life. I couldn't climb stairs bilaterally; couldn't walk a full city block without resting; couldn't get a good night's sleep. The surgery was successful beyond my wildest dreams. By the third day home I had discarded the walker for a cane, and within three weeks I was only using the cane to summon a cab. Integral to this success was not only the skill of the surgeon and the nursing and therapy care, but also the pain management team."

"When the arthritis in my knees finally stopped me from travelling, playing golf, and enjoying life I decided to take action. I called HSS and was referred to Dr. Mayman for a minimally invasive knee replacement. "
