Guest guest Posted April 9, 2003 Report Share Posted April 9, 2003 Dr Gross is great. I am speaking from personal experience. I drove to him from NY City. He has performed the most surguries in the C2K study! I cant speak for Dr Mont only what I read. He is first rate as well! > New to this group > > I live in the southern VA. area.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2003 Report Share Posted April 9, 2003 I flew from Nevada to SC twice for Dr Gross. Would do it again on my third hip.(?????lol!!) I also cannot speak for the other docs being considered. It's nice to have a choice, though. Good for you. Quinn > > New to this group > > > > I live in the southern VA. area.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2003 Report Share Posted April 10, 2003 Dr. Etienne is the best. He did my resurf operation Feb 25 2003. I know of two other patients of his that are equally happy with his surgery. My recovery is going quite well. I was pain free after the first week. He is a real gentleman, competent surgery with a proven track record. The overall care you receive at his hospital; Sinai is just great. Proceed with confidence when you go with Etienne.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2003 Report Share Posted April 10, 2003 Hi Lou!! My surgery was done by Dr Etienne, but I've been seen by Dr Mont for followup - both guys are great!! Can't say enough good about the care at Sinai; and the staff with Mont/Etienne are easy to get along with!! The new hip has given me my fun life back Deb C+ Mont/Etienne 5-2-02 > New to this group > > I live in the southern VA. area.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2003 Report Share Posted April 13, 2003 Hi Lou, In addition to any responses you get currently, you can also search the archives on Surfacehippy by typing in " Dr. Gross, " " Dr. Mont, " or " Dr. Etienne. " You'll get hundreds of posts relating personal experiences during all phases of the process. I live in Iowa, and I believe one of the best decisions I've made in my life was to travel to South Carolina and be resurfaced by Dr. Gross.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2003 Report Share Posted April 13, 2003 Would someone care to detail how one can " search the archives " by typing in a doctor's name? Thanks. jlv Re: closest resurfacing doctors to me Hi Lou, In addition to any responses you get currently, you can also search the archives on Surfacehippy by typing in " Dr. Gross, " " Dr. Mont, " or " Dr. Etienne.
