This is great to hear! I have just had a hip replacement here in Arlington, VA and it was absolutely, positively fantastic and life changing. I agree with you that therapy afterward and probably regular exercise forever is key, but a good surgeon with a good implant can really change your life!

I will probably need the other hip done a some point and possibly a knee so I'll be saving your post. Thanks for the information!
