Title: Experience with Amstutz or Schmalzried in LA?
Post by: Betzi on June 21, 2013, 12:58:32 PM
I live in Albuquerque and to my knowledge the only doctor doing BHR in NM is Archibeque. He's not taking new patients and I doubt he's done many BHRs.
So, I'm considering where to fly to have BHR. LA appeals as it is a short SW flight.
Does anyone have experience with Amstutz or Schmalzreid in LA?

Betzi,

I had both of my hips resurfaced by Dr. James Rector in Boulder, Colorado. My experience was very good, and Dr. Rector has gotten good feedback on this site. If you want to investigate Dr. Rector and Boulder, CO as an alternative to Los Angeles, I will be happy to help in any way that I can.
