I was very surprised to find out I need a total hip replacement at 59, but the pain was so severe I had no choice. Dr. Jimenez explained the surgery clearly and he answered all my questions completely. He has always been happy to answer any question I have asked. I was up walking the day of surgery and the pain was less than before surgery. At six weeks I am very happy with my recovery and very glad I had Dr. Jimenez as my surgeon.
