Reed’s Bilateral Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Kreuzer 2011

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on August 8, 2017 by Patricia WalterAugust 12, 2017

I would love to get the word out that there is absolutely no reason to try and endure that kind of pain for so long for absolutely no reason.

Just the bare bones outline: I’ve been pretty active and fitness minded since my teenage years, and never really lost my enjoyment of exercise and activity.

Maybe just a few short weeks after I turned 35 I started noticing a throbbing pain in either of my … Read the rest

Birmingham Hip Resurfacing through Anterior Incision

Three days in hospital, two weeks with walker, eight days with cane and back on my two feet

I was a somewhat serious runner in the nineties (five marathons) but had tapered to three miles three times a week while playing tennis (doubles) three times a week. I started to notice an onset of pain while running and playing tennis and eventually decided to see a doctor. I live … Read the rest

…I go in for resurfacing on 7/9. My surgeon is Dr. Stefan Kreuzer at Memorial Bone & Joint in Houston. He has done 50 resurfacings to date. He does the anterior approach (see the animated video on his website) and is using the Cormet device. He has trained with others, like Birmingham, but is currently using the Cormet.

John Drake’s Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Kreuzer 2008

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on August 9, 2016 by Patricia WalterAugust 9, 2017

I’m 48 years old and just had my hip resurfaced using the anterior approach on 11/3/08 by Dr. Stefan Kreuzer. I spent some time on the surfacehippy website to educate myself prior to my surgery which helped a lot. I do however feel very little is mentioned about the anterior approach which I believe is just as important technology as is the resurfacing.

My hospital stay was less than 24 hours and I was walking … Read the rest

Stephen Kenney’s Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Kreuzer 2008

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on August 9, 2016 by Patricia WalterAugust 9, 2017

My hip problem began with a slip back in 1995 that caused me to bend over severely at my waist and touch my chest against the top of my right thigh. Interestingly, the extreme twisting of my leg at the hip didn’t hurt at all. Much later, I would find out that I had traumatized the joint and damaged “something” which set forth a slow degradation of the cartilage between the hip socket and ball … Read the rest

Greetings from Houston, Texas! On December 10, 2008 I had a Cormet Hip Resurfacing prosthesis using the direct anterior approach performed by Dr. Stefan Kreuzer.  The anterior direct approach (also known as “Smith Peteresen”) is relatively rare in the U.S. as many surgeons have not yet been trained with this approach.  The reported benefits of the direct anterior approach are the avoidance of detaching the major muscle groups from bone to access the femur as … Read the rest

I am a 55 year old male. I have been active all my life in various sports which ultimately led to my hip cartilage damage. I had my right hip resurfaced using the anterior approach November 2007 by Dr. Stefan Kreuzer, a Birmingham hip. In Feb of this year, Dr Kruezer resurfaced my left hip with a Cormet.

I am almost two months into the recovery and I am almost back to full strength. There

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on August 9, 2016 by Patricia WalterAugust 9, 2017

In March 2009 hip pain had significantly negatively impacted my life. Performing basic daily functions became extremely difficult. On March 10, 2009, I had hip resurfacing surgery performed by Dr. Kreuzer at Memorial Herman, Memorial City Hospital in Houston Texas. The surgery was remarkably “un-remarkable.” My recovery has been quick and is near complete 6 weeks after the surgery. I live in a four story townhome and was able to negotiate the three flights of … Read the rest

I am my name is Maria and I am 31 years old. I had my BHR on May 11, 2009 by Dr. Kreuzer.
