“I was stiff after surgery, but I pushed myself with my trainer’s help and created more speed and strength in my body’s movements. It made a real difference in my golf game.”

  “Within a couple of days, I was able to do anything. I didn’t even need to take any pain medicine after the procedure.”
 
  "Before the surgery, I couldn’t run, I couldn’t play soccer. Now, there’s no pain in the joint at all. Hip replacement gave me my life back.”
 
  “I felt depressed when I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis a few years ago knowing that surgery would be in my future and unsure of how well I would come back afterward. But, now I am so glad I had the surgery because my new hip feels better than ever. I am back to running and feel great mentally. I would recommend this to anyone else who is experiencing severe hip pain.”
 
  “I am so thankful for my new lease on life. I can once again do all of the activities normally taken for granted, like carrying my laundry around the house. I also wouldn’t have been able to change careers if it hadn’t been for the surgery, because my new job requires being on my feet often. I would recommend the BFH® replacement to anyone else in a similar position. I only wish I had the surgery sooner!”
 
  “I’m so happy with the operation. I love my perfect new hips. They have changed my life for the better!”
 
  Besides living without any pain in his left hip, Roger is back on the golf course, back to bowling, and is ultimately enjoying his active lifestyle again – all thanks to his hip replacement.
 
  “It might seem like I was young for a hip replacement,” David said. “But my choice was to have the quality of life while I’m still able to do the things I love to do. I’m very happy with my decision.”
 
  Sana’s doctor said. “She is in such good physical condition, and so physically aggressive, the Big Femoral Head was definitely the way to go for her.”
 
  “If you’re very active, you are likely going to outlive your hip and knee joints,” John said. “I couldn’t see myself giving up the things I love to do. So hip surgery was the right answer, and there was no reason to wait.”
 
  "Today, at the gym, people come up to me and say it’s amazing I am back. Thanks to my hip replacement, I have experienced a phenomenal, profound change. I am so grateful to Wright.”
 
  “Over the course of five weeks I gradually went from using the walker, to crutches, to one crutch, to using a cane,” she said. “And after five weeks I could walk unassisted.” After 12 weeks she returned to work full-time.
 
 
“I am mainly relieved that I can do anything I want to again, no excuses.”
 
 
Amazed by the accelerated recovery, Kevin feels that he is able to relate to tennis legend Jimmy Connors, who also underwent the same hip replacement procedure patented by Wright: “Me and Jimmy Connors; we’re your biggest fans.”
 
“I feel bad for those who do not have the opportunity to have this great procedure. Without the PATH® technique from Wright, I think I would have been on crutches for weeks.”
 
“It was such an achievement for me to be back on the golf course and win only a couple of months after surgery. Before I had my hip replaced, I could hardly play nine holes of golf without being in excruciating pain – never mind three days of 18-hole golf.”
 
This procedure was a piece of cake. It was less painful than a root canal,” says Rick. “To feel zero pain, after recovery, is like a fairy tale.”
 
“I don’t even think about my hips anymore,” he said. “They are a non-issue. They feel as good as they did before I ever started having problems.”
 
“It’s feeling pretty good,” Otis said of his new hip. “A whole lot better than it did last year, and I can tell it’s getting better every day.”
 
“Since I was first diagnosed with spondylitis in 1974, I had only been able to ride a bike for 30 minutes a day maximum. But, now I am able to bike for miles, swim and even walk a mile to work each day. I’m no longer hobbling along. It’s just amazing. Hips certainly aren’t what they used to be!”
 
“Looking back, if I’d known how good I would feel, I would have had it (a bilateral hip replacement) done a few years prior. It’s wonderful to have my life back.”
