Jun 02, 2019
Five years on a complete hip replacement by Dr Lawler and couldn't be happier. Fast recovery. Back to work in one week. Totally free from the hip pain I endured for years. Hiking, biking, swimming, basketball, volleyball, softball and construction work are all part of my normal routine again.
