This review is for Dr. Philippon at the Steadman Clinic. If you are diagnosed with Cam Impingement, Hip Impingement or a labral tear in your hip, Dr. Phillipon is the surgeon to see. I investigated several other surgeons and asked each about their outcomes from this surgery and all of them pointed to Dr. Philippon's published outcomes as if they were their own. The other important thing to know is that Dr. Philippon requires each patient to fill out a screening questionnaire prior to accepting you as a patient. The questionnaire feeds an algorithm that predicts the success of the surgery. If you score too low, you won't be his patient. I have met people that were not accepted due to their age or their BMI. The last and most important comment is that the quality of the surgeon is 1/2 the battle. The other half is you. The post surgical protocol is wildly important, and that's all you. The commitment to recovery is huge. Don't bother with the surgery if you are not able to commit to recovery as the most important thing in your life for at least 8 weeks post surgical. That includes PT and taking the required medications and supplements. Good luck, and happy healing!
