Patrick’s Hip Replacement – Anterior Approach

Patrick is flying it 4 days after his anterior apporach hip replacement surgery with Dr. Lucas Kleijn. The anterior approach stands out for it’s faster healing time in the initial days and weeks after surgery, as can be seen here!

“Hi, I’m here in Denia in Spain with Healthcare Abroad. I had an anterior approach hip replacement on Wednesday and it’s now Sunday and as you can see, I’m walking along the beach, which I didn’t think I’d be doing for another couple of months, walking without a crutch.”

“I have a walking stick here, but not really using it. You wouldn’t think I’d had a hip replacement.”

“Absolutely world class standard procedures here. World class.”

“If you’re thinking about it. Just go ahead and do it. Absolutely fantastic.”

“Anyway, I’ll get back to enjoying my stroll along the beach. Four days after a hip replacement. Unbelievable”
