Hip Replacement Surgery
Share this Story
I was struggling to walk with a cane when I came to Dr. Kahlenberg. I could barely crawl up my stairs. After one misdiagnosis, I found Dr. Kahlenberg. She is a fantastic surgeon. The best! My surgery was successful immediately. I was able to go upstairs the first night home. The physical therapists kept telling me not to do this and that but I could do so many things right away that they were shocked. Now I bound up and down stairs, stand all day at my easel, and exercise regularly. It’s a miracle!
