Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 11, 2017 by Patricia WalterSeptember 11, 2017

June 4, 2017

I just got a resurfacing 9 weeks ago from Dr. Palmer at Twin cities orthopedics.  After much reading on this great site, and many others, I’ve come to realize that all surgeons are different, including their recovery advice, and all patients are different in their recovery process and timelines.

I’ve had somewhat of a hard time with my recovery, as I thought because I was athletic and in really good shape(53-play hockey, … Read the rest

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on January 14, 2017 by Patricia WalterAugust 12, 2017

I had my second Birmingham hip resurfacing surgery done by Dr. David Palmer just this past May. I was so pleased with the patient care that I received but most of all with Dr. Palmer. I cannot believe how good I feel now just 7 weeks post op.

I tend to be an active person and my job is an active job being the Ski coach here at NMU. I am on my feet most … Read the rest

John S’s Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Palmer 2008

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on November 4, 2016 by Patricia WalterNovember 4, 2016

November 20, 2008

7 Hours post-op.

Per my Doc, it was a text book BHR.  I did the spinal thing, and am glad I did.  I remember waking up after a general feeling like I was run over by a truck.  The only part that was uncomfortable was the spinal wearing off.  But on a scale of 1 to 10, I’d make that a 2.

I was standing after 4 hours doing my first PT.  … Read the rest

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 17, 2015 by Patricia WalterAugust 10, 2017

I’m at 3 weeks to the day and my current situation is not much
different than it was 1 week post op. I was in the Hospital a total
of 24 hours. I was off pain killers after 5 days and off ibuprofen
after one week (Therefore I began driving and running errands around
town). I did very little icing (very little swelling …. only on
the incision). After one week I walked two blocks … Read the rest

Gregory K’s Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Palmer 2015

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on April 16, 2015 by Patricia WalterApril 16, 2015

February 2015

I am an emergency physician who retired at the end of 2013 at age 65. Nine months later I ran into one of life’s speedbumps when my R hip became very uncomfortable with modest activity. An x-ray demonstrated bone-on-bone degenerative arthritis with a femoral neck cam. I underwent resurfacing with the BHR by Dr David Palmer at Lakeview Hospital in Stillwater, MN on Feb 18, 2015. This site played a large part in … Read the rest

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on January 24, 2013 by Patricia WalterJanuary 24, 2013

March 13, 2011 About six years ago, I slipped on some ice on our concrete steps of our old house. My feet went out from under me and I fell with all of my weight right on to the greater trochanter of the femur of my left hip. It jammed the joint so hard I had to lay there for awhile as tears rolled down my cheeks. That was the beginning of the end of … Read the rest
