Testimonials

I just wanted to thank Dr. Swann and PA Caleb for the great work they did on my hip labrum repair and my PAO. They were both upfront with me about this being a very painful surgery and a hard recovery. I am 2 weeks post op as of 8/19/2020 and i am completely pain free and feeling great. I know not everyones surgery and recovery will be the same. I had some soft bone in my hip so my weight bearing pre cautions are a little extended compared to the normal. But if theres any fear from anyone getting ready to have this procedure done, don’t be afraid. You’re in great hands. They did such a fantastic job and i cant wait to see where my recovery takes me.

I have had 5 surgeries on my left hip and femur due to hip replacement, femur fractures and an infectious disease contracted during one of the surgeries. When my prior surgeon discovered that I contracted another infectious disease, he told me that my issues were so severe that he recommended that I see Dr. Swann.. After a MRI and more lab tests, I met with Dr. Swann. During that consultation, he thoroughly explained the issues options and potential consequences of those options We decided on another surgery and insertion of a spacer as that gave me the best option to walk again. The surgery was long and complicated be he not only had to completely clean the infectious disease, remove most of the riddled femur but he also constructed a new spacer. The incision was, by far, the most clean with no leakage when I returned home. In addition, the pain level was very low and intermittent. I have complete confidence in the abilities of Dr. Swann and am sure that he will have me walking again soon.
