Patient Reviews
Jul 16, 2024
Dr Taunton replaced my right hip in June of 2024. The surgery was completed flawlessly and the result could not have been better. The anterior direct approach has led to a faster and much less painful recovery than the anterior lateral approach used by another Doctor in Florida to replace my left hip two years ago. Dr Taunton and his entire team are highly skilled and very professional. Less than three weeks after surgery I am pain free and able to walk better than I have in five years. I can’t say enough about how good this experience has been.
