"He (Dr. DeCook) always comes in with a smile, which makes you feel good. He's not in a hurry, he takes the time. ...I had the surgery, I think I was done by 10 o'clock in the morning... they had me up and walking by 3 p.m. I was home by 1:30 that afternoon, the next day. It was fantastic."

"The day after my surgery, they (TLC) wanted to test my hip on steps prior to my discharge....I followed them over to the fire exit on the floor I was on....I used the railing and I walked up 2 flights and I turned around and walked down 2 flights. Within the hour, I was on my way home."
