I had always been a very active person, both as a freelance cellist and avid outdoors-person. But by 2017, due to pain & lack of mobility, I was having great difficulty enjoying any of those things! I had pursued conservative options (injections, PT & massage) only to have the extreme pain & stiffness return after some brief relief. That’s when I bit the bullet and I got in for a consult with
Dr. Vorlicky. I really appreciated his straightforwardness and compassion. Then, after reviewing his stellar record of success with other hip replacements, I chose him to do my surgery. To not do anything wasn’t an option, so I jumped at this “second chance”for an active life.
A full year since the 2nd hip replacement and I am more active then ever. I can play my cello for hours, ride my bike, walk 4 miles at a time and the most exciting moment was being able to dance for 3 straight hours at my daughters recent wedding! And no pain as I got my boogie on!!!
I have to add that TCO’s PT staff has been stellar and has made a huge impact on my recovery as well!
Science/medicine is amazing! And I’m so grateful & blessed that the whole TCO family was such an important part of this comeback story!!
