Hip Labral Tear

Joe A.

My experience with HSS has been one that I have come to cherish. I am extraordinarily lucky to have Dr. Nawabi and his team nearby. When I was experiencing hip pain at such a young age of 16, I was worried what that might mean for my future in life and in sports. Dr. Nawabi identified the problem and fixed it through a Hip Arthroscopy. He performed the surgery on my left hip. It took me about 8 months to fully return to sports after the surgery. It was no easy task, but I can honestly say I feel better every day and playing sports thanks to Dr. Nawabi. I'm very grateful.
