I'm so sorry you are having these experiences. Can you please share what Doctors and hospital you feel you had successful surgery and/or where this transfer study is being done. I had an accident in 2017 that broke multiple bones on my right side. The torn, retracted, fatty atrophied glute medius wasn't' diagnoised until 2024. All the Drs kept saying Greater Trochanctor burstis but my ability to walk continued to decline & I did not respond to PT. I was supposed to have transfer surgery at the Cleveland Clinic but the only surgeon who could do it, quit. I need to find a surgeon who will in-patient surgery at hospital since I have an allergy to many general anesthia. I do have a 100% disability PTSD from accident but like you, I keep plugging along. If you can share anything, I'd appreciate it.

Several doctors at Barnes Jewish hospital in St. Louis do the Gluteus Maximus transfer with 50% of patients from other areas. Dr. Cecilia Pascual Garrido did mine. Contact BJC to make an appointment via phone.
