Patient Story of: Frank Ligtvoet
Brooklyn, NY
Hip Replacement Surgery
At my age (71), conversations among friends often include stories about hip or knee surgery. When my left hip began to bother me and I mentioned it within my circle of fellow “oldies,” I was met with horror stories, endless advice, and dire warnings about treatment. I have no such story to share.
My primary care doctor referred me to Dr. Gausden, and from the warm intake to the final post-op visit, everything went flawlessly. Dr. Gausden’s assistant, Hayden, was undoubtedly instrumental in my remarkably quick journey - from significant pain to almost pain-free and nearly fully mobile in just three weeks. I don’t think that “record” will be easily beaten.
