Patient Reviews
Feb 11, 2025
Dr. Ready was calm, knowledgable and a hockey player (like me). He gave me 2 options for my hip replacement and I opted for the resurfacing procedure because I wanted to go back to playing hockey. I am currently 3 months post op and the range of motion, strength and walking gait are an amazing improvement. This operation is actually a bit of a miracle for me. Looking forward to getting back on the ice in the next couple of months.
