Hip replacement for women

December 7th, 2009

Over half of my patients are women, and many of them are young and physically active. Lots of them enjoy playing tennis, going to the gym, and doing Pilates. They need a hip replacement that is durable and unlikely to dislocate doing their normal activities. Hip resurfacing hasn’t really fulfilled its early promise for female patients, but we are seeing excellent results with ceramic hip replacements. I use the DeltaMotion hip system which allows me to implant the biggest bearing currently available.

If you would like to discuss your hip problem with me, ask your GP for a referral.
