Sally Stickel Dickson, a patient of Dr. Ron Hudanich, shares her phenomenal surgical recovery story. She followed her recovery protocol perfectly, and these are the results. Thank you for your kind words, Sally!
“After 30+ years as a licensed physical therapist and personal trainer, I’m used to being the caregiver — not the patient. Until now, the only surgeries I’ve ever had were tonsils and wisdom teeth! When hip pain started limiting my workouts and pickleball, I knew it was time. After years of working with surgeons across Central Florida as Sr. VP of Operations for a large PT company, I knew exactly who to call — Dr. Ron Hudanich at Greater Orlando Orthopedic Group. His anterior hip replacement approach using robotics made the decision easy.
These videos show me walking
5 hours after surgery, post-op day 1 and day 10. The results have been incredible — I’m walking normally again and pain free! If you’re considering hip replacement, take it from a PT who just had her first surgery at age 60 — Dr. Hudanich and his team are exceptional.”
