@hlthcr2000 thank you for this. I am so curious if you are willing to share some more info. I am thrilled you have a full recovery with NO pain. That's my dream.
Dr Lall is impressive!
At HSS did u see either Dr Ratawan or Loyd B Glayle? I'm curious why no one there could help you.
Did Dr Lall do an "open" procedure glute max Trf or "something else?" If so what?
Was surgery In-Patient at a hospital or out-patient at a clinic?
Did u spend any time in hospital and then discharged to a skilled nursing/rehab nursing.
what was the immediate post-op care
Was there a 2 wk follow up or what type follow-up happened?
A Dr in cleveland wanted to out- patient surgery on me for glute max Trf & greater trochanter bursaectomy & maybe labrum repair & send me home the same day- but the surgery center cancelled it the day before. They said it required a hospital OR & recovery. He quit shortly after. Then I discovered that he never got hospital privileges after he left the Clev Clinic.
Did u live in general NYC-NJ area or did you travel a distance to surgery? I'm curious what other people do and how they manage travel & post op care. I live alone & have no "assist" so will need to go to skilled nursing or rehab center. That's why I worry when surgeons push out patient only option for surgery.
Thank you so much.🙏
Did Dr Lall treat you with any stem cell or biologics?
I look forward to learning more about your remarkable journey & positive outcome.
Thank you in advance.
