Hip Pain Causes, Conditions and Treatments

Alice Despard

So grateful to Dr. Bryan Kelly and his team for my hip surgery three years ago. I had a torn gluteus medius tendon and the repair required some fancy four-handed surgical work with the good doctor and an assisting plastic surgeon. Dr. Kelly allowed me to return to my swimming routine as soon as was possible which helped to speed my healing. Within four months I got off my canes and crutches, got a new puppy to walk with daily, and returned to my swimming and yoga practice. I’m now 65, three years out from my hip surgery and happily active as I can be! Dr. Kelly, you are a star in the orthopedic field and I’m forever grateful!
