Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on December 5, 2017 by Patricia WalterDecember 20, 2017

December 8, 2017

I am a firefighter/paramedic/inspector in Los Angeles who suffered OA and the avulsion of a large chunk of acetabular cartilage in my right hip over 15 years ago. This left me in debilitating pain for over a year, when I was finally able to get a debridement of the loose bodies and torn cartilage. That improved my condition to what I considered 90% of normal for a number of years. Later as pain returned, it was treated (through worker’s comp) in conservative, and gradually increasing degrees. I had PT, constant Celebrex, a number of x-rays and MRIs, acupuncture, with TENS occasionally. My research brought me to this site 7 or 8 years ago, and I began to lobby for resurfacing. I visited … Read the rest

I had bilateral surgery in January of 08 – I found this web site around 6 months prior to that time and had the same reaction, what a godsend.

After recovering from an arthroscopic surgery to my right hip in May of 07 and I had one on my left in March of 07, I was desperate as I was not getting any better.

Both of my hips were bad and now I have no pain, just a desire to keep getting stronger. I am playing in a 45 and older tennis tournament this next weekend.

If both are bad then I would recommend a bilateral. The doctors want you on your feet as soon … Read the rest

I feel kind of funny chiming in on this one but I feel the need to give hope to my fellow female surface hippy’s to be.   I had my left hip resurfaced on Monday July 27th with Dr. Schmalzried in Los Angeles .   I was home from the hospital on Wednesday the 29th.   The following Monday, August 4th I was able to be a wife to my husband again, although I wasn’t as active a participant due to some restrictions.     However, a few days later I was just about back to normal.   No one was more surprised than I was!!!

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 17, 2015 by Patricia WalterAugust 8, 2017

Pat, Thanks for your website it really helped me
navigate the process. I’m 50, athletic, arthritic (ankylosing
spondylitis), bone on bone in both hips. I had a right Birmingham
hip mid-Nov with Dr. Schmalzried. I would say so far a very
successful story.

He had me get on a stationary bike the day after I got home and
started PT about a week later. Initial PT was focused on
strengthening and stretching as quickly as able, while being mindful
of wrong angles. PT led to a spinning bike fairly quickly then out
on the road at about 6 weeks.

I started walking the golf course with a crutch at Christmas (5-6
weeks), graduated to ¼ swings, then half swings, then full swings,
then carried my … Read the rest

Mike Carrol Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Schmalzried 2004

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 17, 2015 by Patricia WalterAugust 8, 2017

By Jeanette Steele, UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER

Sunday, May 2, 2010

Navy Chief Petty Officer Mike Carrol deployed to Iraq in 2007 and
remains on active duty today, at 53, to train fellow reservists.

Mike Carroll couldn’t touch his knees together. Couldn’t play
basketball with his children. Couldn’t walk other than taking “a big
limp,” he said.

The former Navy SEAL wasn’t going to let those limitations drown his
dream of returning to the special-warfare compound in Coronado to
help in the war effort.

At age 49 in 2006, Carroll wasn’t the oldest SEAL to re-enlist after
an absence. But he was certainly not the usual face in the
recruiter’s office.

Adding to the odds against him, he was packing two artificial hips.

Even with that … Read the rest

Hi Hippies…

Haven’t visited in a while but wishing all the best. I
maintain an interest in keeping the data flow for those w/ an interest
in resurfacing so…Tomorrow will mark six years post op for me
and all is well. I maintain my primary passion for surfing and
cannot blame a bad session on the hip! Sometimes I wish I could, which
might have kept me from being beaten in large surf yesterday!

I still walk/hike regularly though the principle activity of
interest for me is surfing, and the hip is still stellar. I know
we’ve got a few more resurfs here on Maui now, having one of our local
MD’s & another regular at Hookipa here on our N. Shore being
amongst the … Read the rest

Moose Connolly Hip Resurfacing with Dr. Schmalzried 2012

After struggling with hip pain since 2007 which, despite a lot of strength &
core exercises and staying active, steadily got worse. Thanks to this site, I
was able to research the hip resurfacing option and find a doctor I was
comfortable with.

I am one week post op (operation June 18, 2012). Other than
some nausea from the anesthesia on day of surgery, my pain level never exceeded a
2 or 3 (10 being worst pain).

One week post op I am walking using only one
crutch and each day am seeing rather large improvement in range of motion &
ability to put weight on my right hip. Prior to surgery my hip was rotated about… Read the rest

Amazed by the results – Schmalzried

I am a 44 year old who (much like a Golden Retriever) was
apparently born with dysplasia in my right hip. Never really bothered me
growing up though I would have a little pain when I walked a long way and
never knew why. Around age 33 my hip started to ache more often and for more
prolonged periods. By the last couple of years I would go a week or two with
slight pain then one to four weeks of significant pain that made it hard to
sleep and impossible to play with my kids or exercise. Of course, I had been
diagnosed 8 or 10 years ago but wanted to wait on surgery as … Read the rest

Dear Ms. Walter,

I just found your website. Great work!!

I had bilateral hip resurfacing Nov 22, 2004 by Dr. Schmalzried. I would like to submit a recent picture of me doing front splits to demonstrate the possibilities.

I have been training in Martial Arts for 32 years, been a long distance runner and currently race/ride in road bike competition.

I am always happy to speak to anyone interested in this procedure to encourage and tell my story.

Sincerely,
