Re: help with resurfacing operation

[Guest guest]

Hi Jim:

Sorry to hear of another lifter with hip problems - I am a former

National Collegiate Powerlifting Champion who will be getting a

resurfacing from Dr. Mont as soon as he resumes the surgery. A

number of other New York and New Jersey people have come to Baltimore

for Dr. Mont. I just thought that I'd mention it.

Jim-- Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't know that Dr Feldman does

Conserve Plus. He may, or he may do Conserve (femoral component only)

or does he do Buechel-Pappas hip resurfacing? I haven't found his

name on the list of participating surgeons.

I do know that Dr Mont at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore has taken many

patients from NYC area.

My money would be on a surgeon who has done many resurfacings before

he got to me. BTW we drove 550 miles from Mich to have mine done.
