Hip Expectations: How to get through a hip replacement by someone who should know better

Uses humor and facts! This was a great companion to get ready for hip surgery. All important details were noted. Easy read, not long and definitely a plus!

This is the 'Go-To' guide for anyone embarking on hip replacement surgery, from diagnosis to discharge...and beyond. Jonathan Hull combines his expertise as a successful orthopaedic surgeon with his own experience as a patient to reassure even the most apprehensive reader (and I was certainly one of those!) He uses humour to make the advice relatable but, more importantly, to emphasize just what we should, and shouldn't do...and why. We can smile at his own missteps and try not to make them ourselves! This book, literally, walks you through the process in an informative, entertaining and encouraging way. Expectations met and matched. Highly recommended!

Great book.. at last. Finally, a doctor who himself is a patient explains the pros. And the cons of a hip replacement, very informative. Very educational eased a lot of my anxiety and fear..

What an incredibly helpful book! This is a must for anyone who gets a hip replacement.

Told me nothing new and totally omitted femoral nerve pain. A doctor congratulating doctors. Not much help
