Best advise I can offer is check out the success rate of both the Surgeon and the Hospital and inquire about "STAFF" precautions, also related to "POST-OP" recovery and Therapy and any home care.
Be especially cautious of any therapy and home health care people ( I can't stress this enough) .
Wade:
Know of several other incident's such as you described, Guess that's why they call it "Practicing Medicine" , If they could get it right every time there would be a lot of people out of work.

Needless to say summer is shot as well as the fall trip to Ga. , Ortho Dr. is 120 miles from here (3+ hours on Indiana roads) , one of the draw backs of living in "The Swamp".

Be Careful ALL !
