Had my hip resurfacing done by Vijay Bose in Chennai, India in March of 2007. No problems 10 years later. If your bone density is good having a hip replacement is a no-brainer. You would be a fool to get a total hip replacement. Dr. Gross, from what I understand, is one of the best in the US. In 2007, very few doctors were doing THR’s and McMinn told me Bose was … Read the rest

This is my first post and I am scheduled for bilateral hip resurfacing by Dr. Bose in July this year.

I am nervous as hell as I have never spent time in hospital let alone an operation of such calibre. I am scared of the general anaesthetic the most and how I will feel when (if) I wake up.

My background is that I am a 44 year old male that has … Read the rest

IN PRAISE OF DR. BALASUBRAMANIAN (COIMBATORE, INDIA)

In January, I had my left hip resurfaced by Dr. Bose in
Chennai. Although
both hips were almost equally bad (bone on bone), Dr. Bose
was very
reluctant to operate on both, so I had the left hip operated
on, returned
home to Chicago and hoped for the best.

Unfortunately, my
right hip began
getting worse, and after about 5 weeks, it became apparent
that I’d have to… Read the rest
