I won’t continue kicking the bag…I want the hips to last at least another 40 years … Read the rest

20 Year Update Richard Kenney Hip Resurfacing with Mr. McMinn 1999

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on April 5, 2019 by Patricia WalterApril 5, 2019

Original Post on McMinn Centre Facebook Page:  https://www.facebook.com/TheMcMinnCentre

Best thing I have ever done! Got my left hip resurfacing with Mr McMinn in 1999 and 20 years later it’s still great. I’m an active person doing cycling, walking, swimming, gym and judo. A normal hip replacement would have probably been revised 20 years ago! Right hip resurfacing done in 2014 and perfect and still very active at nearly 67.
