Hip Replacement Surgery

Share this Story

Based on recommendations of colleagues and a personal interview, I chose Dr. Rose for my right hip replacement. While all aspects of my hospital stay were great, my story is around the recovery process. Although my recovery progressed extremely smoothly, Dr. Rose cautioned me to only slowly go back to my golf game. Based on his advice I waited awhile before playing a round. On the 6th hole of the first round I played, I scored a hole in one. This was the first in my 40+ years of playing golf. Guess Dr. Rose should also apply to the PGA as a golf coach!
