Hi, @tonycn
Welcome to Connect. Unfortunately I know nothing about hip replacements, I have only had knee replacements. I don't even know if knee replacements can be cementless.

I do agree wholeheartedly with @sueinmn though. Do your research about the doctor. If the doctor is excellent and highly regarded I think you can pretty much rely on his judgment. I was in so much pain when I had my first knee replacement that I didn't do much research, I was pretty uninformed about the whole thing. I chose a well-rated doctor and that knee does not give me problems but it's never been as good as the second knee I had replaced by a fabulous doctor. I also discovered that the first doctor was using the same knee that he had been using for 30 years. I have to think that in 30 years there had been improvements. As I said though, I don't have any real problems, it just tends to hurt more quickly than my other knee when I do a lot of exercise, and it doesn't flex quite as well.

With knee replacements there are many different brands, some leave people happier than others. I presume there is similar information available for hip replacements.

Good luck with your research and proceeding forward. I hope you have an excellent experience, most people I know with hip replacements have been very happy with them and had great recoveries so I hope the same for you. Stick with your post-surgery physical therapy and I'm sure your outcome will be great.
