Hip Pain Causes, Conditions and Treatments

Claudia Herman

I saw Dr. Creighton well over a year ago a few times. I wanted to thank him for his help with my hip pain. I’ve been remissed in not doing this sooner. I had over a year of pain and Dr. Creighton stuck it out with me to get me relief. It was so frustrating for someone as active as me to have pain when walking. After the last cortisone injection did and a change of mattress, I was able to start to move again. A year after that I was able to do a dream 3-week hiking trip through Patagonia. I even did the W trek. I wouldn’t have been able to do that without Dr. Creighton's help! Or without Varsha’s help, the last PT he recommended. Even though I’m so late in writing this, thank you so much for helping me feel better! Now if I could just do one more half marathon!

All the best to you!
