Hi, my name is Craig, I'm 58 and need a total hip replacement. I have read several posts and some people have said they have really good surgeons, or the best surgeon in their state.
I think I have a good surgeon, I have seen him for both a torn rotator cuff and a broken shoulder (I forgot the name of the part of the shoulder, it's been a few years), any way, my question is how do you determine that you have a really good surgeon, or the best surgeon or .....
My guy has his plaques on the wall, is good looking (I'm not interested though), dresses well, talks intelligently and is charming and likeable, and has no patients in the lobby screaming in pain. But so what?
I want a good technician that can really perform in the operating room.
I've searched this site, but haven't found anything on this topic. I appreciate all the friendly helpful posts I have found here.
Thanks in advance.
Craig
