Not sure how many he’s done, but in the Detroit area, he’s one of the more experienced with BHR and I would HIGHLY recommend him!!<br /> <br /> I’m six weeks post-surgery today. I gave up any walking assistance (crutches/cane) after four weeks - about the time I started PT. PT is now three time a week. My only pain is from the muscles surrounding the incision and the hip area - but NOT the joint. I’ve been walking up to three miles daily (weather permitting). I still have stiffness after I’ve been sitting for a while, but it loosens right up. The strength is coming back slowly.<br /> <br /> Bob in Michigan<br /> 08/30/07 RBHR - Dr. Verner<br /> Tue, 20 Nov 2007 11:33:40 -0700 http://surfacehippy.info/blogs/archives/18-guid.html
