I believe he is an excellent surgeon and the dedicated joint replacement wing at Leesburg Hospital is fantastic.

You gotta do the therapy!!!

Another option to explore is Dr Steven (?) Nguyen who is located closer to Orlando. He does seminars up here occasionally. He does a different type of side incision that supposedly involves less pain, less cutting of muscle, and faster healing times. I have talked to a couple of people who had good results with him.
Thanks for the info,Dr.Nguyen is holding a seminar here in The Villages this coming Sat.I do plan to attend.
