I often have people write to me personally for advice and
information. I have been researching hip resurfacing for about four years. I had my hip resurfaced March 15, 2006 with
Dr. De Smet of Belgium.
I have formed many opinions along the way. They are only my
opinions from what I have read. I am not trained in any medical field,
I am a Mechanical Engineer by profession. So everything I write about is
my opinion based on information I have read.
