Guest guest Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Everyone has their own take on things.....but if I were considerably over weight and could be a potential risk for a ortho doctor to perform surgery on, Aussie or not, I would find the best surgeon who was skilled enough to perform this surgery on me. I would not care if he were Koen DeSmet from Beligum, Dr. Harlan Amstutz from Los Angeles, or Dr. Mont from land...as long as he could help me!!! Who wants to live in pain for the rest of their life when they can get help out of Australia, if he can not get it there. Also a hip resurface might be a better option since, I think with more weight there is a greater chance of blood clotting factor with a THR than a resurface......
