She has been in pain throughout with about 4 inch of shortening in left leg and complete loss of movement. She had consulted various hip surgeons but had been advised not to have surgery either because it’s very complex and usually not successful. She was considering treatment from Mumbai / Bangalore but due to the help of Mrs. Priya, who liaised with Dr. Vijay Budnar, Joint Replacement Specialist (Specialist trained in London for Arthroplasty) & Dr NaveenChandra Alva, Chief Orthopedic Department, the patient underwent a successful HIP Replacement procedure at Indiana Hospital on 20th January 2016.
