  “Since my surgery, I have been contacted by two potential patients asking for advice and information regarding my experience with ceramic-on-ceramic hip implants. I tell them that they should have no fear, that they should feel comfortable with their doctor, follow the rehabilitation guidelines, and they will not believe how good they can feel again.”
 
  "Many mountains climbed, and hundreds of miles on my bike later, all pain free, I know for sure that I have my active life back."
 
  "The hip replacement was the easiest of all my surgeries and if my right hip started to bother me, I would have it replaced with a Wright ceramic hip, in an instant!"
 
  "I thought I was buying myself time, when really I was robbing myself of having a normal life."
 
  With her physical confidence restored, she is able to chase her little girl around the yard and attend her son’s little league games.
 
  “It gives me a great sense of appreciation for things I used to take for granted, such as crossing one leg over the other knee while sitting down. I couldn’t do it before. I’m grateful, and my family is grateful that I’m no longer such a grouch.”
 
  “To be able to go out and walk around a park with my wife, it feels like a huge gift.”
 
  Vinny firmly believes that the LINEAGE® Ceramic Implant is “perfect for anyone who wants a more robust life.” No one is able to tell which hip is real, and in fact, his left artificial hip has a greater range of motion than his right hip.
 
  Ed recalls that prior to his life-changing operation, "You let the pain and joint control you." Now, three years later, Ed is 50 years old and leading an active, pain-free lifestyle.
 
  Looking back, Philip doesn't know why he put off having his hip replaced, "It was a piece of cake." Philip can now work out with his son again and enjoy playing baseball with him. "People that talk to me about my hip are totally amazed. Now they want to look into it, too."
 
“I had a great experience in rehab, and now my life is pain free and I can do the things I really want to do,” Nancy said. “I tell anyone who needs to know that they should not be scared of this surgery, and the benefits are very well worth it.”
