Hip Revision (Revision Total Hip Replacement)

Robert Copjec

Truly Miraculous!

After 3 years of constant pain due to a previous hip replacement that never healed (another doctor, another hospital), Dr. Sculco performed hip revision surgery. Dr. Sculco replaced the bottom half of the prosthetic hip that never connected to the femur, Here are a few unbelievable highlights of my recovery:

- walked out of the hospital without a walker after 21 hours

- back at work in 4 days

- climbed 48 stairs every morning in the NYC subway system after 1 week

- played in and won a tennis tournament after 5 weeks

DISCLAIMER: Results may very; however, these were my results.

Thank you Dr Sculco and the rest of the HSS team. You guys rock!
