It’s been 3 months since Dr. Ihekweazu performed total right hip arthroplasty on me, and now I am feeling great! A year ago, I had surgery (at another medical facility) and had an intramedullary rod placed in my broken right femur. I kept having a lot of unexplained pain, but the attending physician said I was healed. Sadly, I figured that the pain would be there the rest of my life. Then I was referred to Dr. Ihekweazu. He listened to me while I explained everything that had taken place. He was so attentive, patient, and caring. He ordered tests and found that I had traumatic hip arthritis, and needed total hip replacement. He took the time to explain the surgical procedure to me, in words I could understand, and that the rod would be removed. While removing the rod during surgery, he found an infection there, and was able to carefully clean up the infection and complete the total hip arthroplasty. Words can not say how thankful I am, that Dr. Ihekweazu found that infection and helped that awful pain go away, and repaired my hip too!
