Friend recommends Dr. Duke in Ocala.

I had my hip replaced by Dr. Duke 4 years ago. PERFECT result, he did the surgery in West Marion
hospital. Dr. James Duke and his staff are wonderful people - very caring.

hip replacement
 
I just had a hip replacement 2 weeks ago. It was done by Dr. Timothy Van deLeur and he was terrific. He is with the Orthopedic Institute. Can’t recommend him highly enough.

I too used Dr. Joseph Locker and walked out of West Marion in Ocala same day. Could not be more pleased.

Dr. Duke in Ocala
 
He does anterior (frontal) hip replacement surgery. Minimal muscles cut and much quicker recovery. Surgery is done in West Ocala Regional Hospital. Highly recommended. Someone told me that he was limiting his practice to knee replacement. I don't know if that is true.

Good luck with who ever you do decide to go with.

Would definitely recommend Dr. Duke. Did mine in 2016 and all is good.

Anterior Technique
 
Whoever you select make sure he uses the anterior technique (as opposed to posterior). Much, much faster recovery. Make sure he’s done LOTS of them that way!
