I was bone on bone with my left hip. When I met Dr. Della Valle, it was at the start of the pandemic over telehealth. I explained to him that I wanted to be able to continue running triathlons and complete a full Ironman event. I had done a lot of research and knew that I needed a hip resurfacing instead of a THR to allow me the best shot at my goals. I selected Dr. Della Valle because he performed the hip resurfacing and he had stellar reviews everywhere I looked. I was scheduled for the operation on May 1, 2020, but when they opened up the restrictions on COVID-19, he offered to take me earlier and I accepted. I walked out of the surgery same day with less pain than when I walked in. I took 1 pain pill the first night and stopped cold turkey. Dr. Della Valle was a consummate professional and did a fantastic job of explaining the surgery. His staff was wonderful. I wouldn t go anywhere else for this type of procedure.
