This is an excellent primer for anyone considering hip replacement surgery and the rehabilitation afterward. It's written in simple terms that everyone can understand. The discussion on pain control is spot on, and the activity recommendations after surgery are a great resource for people who enjoy the outdoors. What I liked most about the guide is how it helps prospective total hip patients get more control over their own recovery by offering simple tools and coping strategies.

Dr. Miles gives a clear, easy to understand outline of the hip replacement process from the onset of arthritis to surgery day expectations to the rehab/recovery process. I combined this resource with a book written by a patient to give me more understanding of the stages of hip replacement.

Dr. Miles writes clearly about what to expect before, during, and after hip replacement surgery. The book is very well written and quite succinct. Highly recommend for anybody considering undergoing this procedure.

Good for someone considering surgery, not for patients who are recovering. More of a general "what to expect" book than specific hints on how to recover.

great book thanks
