I have a very unique problem and I appreciate Dr Gwathmey's approach. He clearly approaches a unique situation from that of needing to learn the best approach as well as being collaborative. It gives me hope of being able to find the best options in a complicated situation without clear nor desirable answers.

Dr Gwathmey took the time to discuss my issue and potential solutions while demonstrating a level of sympathy that is so far is unparalleled amongst the many surgeons I've met with. He proposed several treatment plans that my prior 2 hip surgeons and several non-surgical ortho docs had never mentioned to me.
