Dr. Shah read my hip x-rays, knew what he was looking at, and how to fix it. I was scheduled for my hip replacement within 2 weeks. I was given precise instructions (I recommend adhering the pre/post op diet, taking the vitamins, etc.) I was admitted to NY Presbyterian Hospital at 9 am and went home the same day at 6:30 pm. As warned by his affable and skilled team, the second day would be uncomfortable, and to stay ahead of discomfort with my prescriptions. On the third day I went out for a few hours. By the second week I transitioned to a cane and walked my hallways and outside, and began working remotely. By the third week I was lifting the affected leg to trim nails, put on shoes, etc. It's been one month since surgery, and since I have a short bus ride to my office, I am returning to work tomorrow. I have no hip pain, and residual muscle soreness in my thigh and tenderness at the 4" incision site are managed by OTC pain meds. I highly recommend Dr. Shah and his team.
