Dr. Nies made sure my hip surgery was needed before rushing to do it. I was given alternative suggestions to wait to make sure. I was on crutches for 6 weeks before surgery. My hip did not improved being off of it, so then went ahead after x-rays.

Dr. Nies told me I could keep getting injections and it would be my decision to discuss knee replacement.

Dr. Nies was wonderful, even though I was crying with him telling me what I already anticipated. I like his ability to tell it like it is. Some doctors sugarcoat recovery times. Dr. Neis is very honest about how it will be.
