Right total hip replacement: I had surgery two weeks ago and the results are already astounding. I had very little pain after a few days and was walking unaided by a cane after about 5days. Doctor Cahill is an amazing doctor and Hackensack Hospital was great for my short one day stay. I feel so much better after having the surgery and am glad I did it.
