Hip Replacement

Peter Restivo

I had my hip replaced on Feb. 7, 2017 and walked out of the hospital on Feb. 8, 2017 - about 24 hours later. It gets better every day! After 3 months, no more cane. I'm walking and riding a bike again. I'm back in the gym swimming and working out and I'm in no pain. I'm not even taking an Aspirin. I walked into Dr. Rozbruch's office today (May 30, 2017) with no limp and no pain. I asked him if I could go scuba diving in Florida and he said go - you're BACK IN THE GAME! But send me a picture! Here you go doctor- take your pick and GOD BLESS YOU! You saved my life!
