8/22/11 Surgery
My orthopedic trauma surgeon at Sharp Hospital seemed very caring and competent. He explained the options I had: a total hip replacement, a partial replacement or an open reduction/internal fixation surgical procedure - which salvages the existing bones. My husband and I chose the latter - which seemed to be the least invasive. Surgery only took about 1 1/2 hours and I tolerated it well. The anesthesia always makes me quite nauseous- but this time I handled the drugs better.
