Treatment Options for Hip Pain

Patient image of: Brandon Levy

My son Brandon woke up one day and could not walk due to severe pain and needed a wheelchair to get in our car. Brandon went to another doctor and the initial diagnosis from was a torn hip muscle and possible break. This was despite my son having no sports incident to justify this. Subsequently we were referred to Dr. Kelly to see why my son could not walk. Dr. Kelly and his staff were professional, courteous and thorough. Dr. Kelly, in conjunction with a pediatric rheumatologist, determined that Brandon could not walk due to a virus which caused fluids to basically swell his leg up and prevented it from working. Well, today Brandon is active and perfectly fine. We give special thanks to Dr. Kelly and his wonderful staff including his wonderful courteous support staff. Thank God my son did not have to go for exploratory surgery. We have nothing but the highest marks for Dr. Kelly as a result of his analytical, thorough, and professional expertise.
