"I felt depressed when I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis a few years ago knowing that surgery would be in my future and unsure of how well I would come back afterward. But, now I am so glad I had the surgery because my new hip feels better than ever. I am back to running and feel great mentally. I would recommend this to anyone else who is experiencing severe hip pain."

"I am so thankful for my new lease on life. I can once again do all of the activities normally taken for granted, like carrying my laundry around the house. I also wouldn't have been able to change careers if it hadn't been for the surgery, because my new job requires being on my feet often. I would recommend the BFH® replacement to anyone else in a similar position. I only wish I had the surgery sooner!"
