Do you need total hip replacement or hip resurfacing?
Total & Short stem Hip replacements
A Total hip replacement is the time tested operation for Primary osteo-arthritis of the hip. It is the preferred treatment for femoral neck fracture with pre-existing hip arthritis. THR is preferable in cases with advanced bone destruction, leg length discrepancy and altered anatomy.
Short stem replacements offer an alternative to THR in younger patients. Secondary osteo-arthritis is the common diagnoses in younger patients. Given the premise that these patienst are likely to outlive the life of the prosthese, it is wiser to choose an implant that can survive longer than traditonal ones. This can be achieved by the use of bone sparing implants, durable bearing materials, technique of fixation etc.
Short stem femoral prostheses provide fixation in the upper part of the femur ( thigh bone) without breaching the shaft. The advantages are less bone loss, lack of thigh pain and versatility.
Young patients with Avascular necrosis, Ankylosing spondylitis, protrusio acetabuli and primary osteoarthritis are suitable candidates.

We offer primary total hip replacement, short stem hip replacement (Proxima & METHA hips & revision hip replacement. We prefer cementless fixation over cemented fixation.

Delta motion ceramic implants provide adequate longevity as they have lowest wear rates.
If you suffer from hip arthritis and are below 60 years, you may want to consider a hip resurfacing rather than a total hip replacement. In a hip resurfacing only the worn out surfaces of the joint are reshaped and resurfaced. The head of the femur instead of being resected is just reshaped to a cylindrical stump and capped with a mushroom shaped metal cap. The worn out socket is prepared like a total hip replacement and press fitted with a metal socket. Conversion to a total hip replacement after resurfacing is easily done. Since the components match the normal size of the hip bone, full mobility and function is possible. Birmingham hip replacement (BHR) has the longest clinical follow up.

office hours?
• If my child is sick, can he or she be seen that day?
• Do you accept my health insurance plan?
• How are payments made for care?
• Are you willing to accept my ideas of childcare?

The Great White Death Commeth: How to Safely Shovel Snow

Most portions of the U.S. are expected to experience a snowier-than-usual winter, according to the 2009 Farmer's Almanac. Unfortunately, this means we will all be shoveling our driveways and sidewalks more often. Shoveling snow is a moderate-intensity exercise that could result in injury if done incorrectly. Follow these tips to stay snow-safe this winter season. It will take some preparation, but your legs, back and heart will thank you:

-- Before shoveling, warm up your muscles in your legs, arms, shoulders and back by stretching.

-- If you must stand on ice, put down salt or sand to give your feet some traction. To maintain the best balance, stand with feet apart at hip-width.

-- Use an ergonomic shovel with a bend in the handle it will save your back by permitting you to bend less. When you do need to bend, bend at your knees.

-- Spray the dish of the shovel with olive oil before you start. The oil will help the snow easily slide on and off.

-- To give yourself the best leverage, space your hands apart on the shovel handle.

-- Don't put too much snow on the shovel at once. Shovel only truly manageable amounts of 1 to 2 inches at a time.

-- Protect your back by tightening your stomach muscles while you lift.

-- That said, if you can, push the snow instead of lifting it.

-- Walk to drop the snow rather than throwing it, but if you must throw it, do not bend at the waist, but instead rotate your entire body to face the direction of the throw.

-- Slow down. Most injuries occur when people try to shovel too quickly.

-- Take a break every 5 to 10 minutes to regain your breath. Shoveling snow is like weightlifting, and if you don't take breaks, you put could yourself at risk for heart attack.

-- If you are overweight, elderly, or have a history of heart or back problems, you should forego shoveling snow altogether and use a snow blower or else have someone else shovel your snow.
