Dr. Lawson checked on the wound and whether he would be able to do what we were talked about before he went into a little bit of more detail. He said we might have to put it off for another month or two to make sure that the UTI was taken care of, and I was no longer on antibiotics.

I knew what I wanted as my knee blew out before and the doctor was very gracious about doing exactly what I wanted, which worked before 30 years ago

I chose Dr. Lawson for hip replacement because he has finesse. I experienced this when he administered my Euflexa knee shots which were excruciating with other doctors but never with him. He is gentle and very smart. With my hip replacement he did a great job and my ball in my hip was disintegrating and he fixed the the situation seamlessly and his assistant, Kristen, did a great job with stitches…my scar is minimal and looks good. I don’t write many reviews but if you’re afraid and are hesitant about hip replacement…choose Dr. Lawson because I honestly believe he’s the best. My incision never was painful during the healing process and I hate pain, that’s why I say he has finesse. I absolutely made a great choice and have been recommending him to my family and friends.
