Revolutionary Robotic Hip Replacement Enhances Fitness in Fort Lauderdale
Keeping Active with Gwynne Beatty
For fitness and dance lover Gwynne Beatty, an active lifestyle was a key part of her daily routine until arthritis made simple movements a struggle. This led her to seek medical help for her condition.
Challenging the Pain
Despite trying various arthritis treatments including red light therapy and specialized diets, none seemed to work. This led her to the conclusion that a hip replacement was her best option for relief.
Finding the Right Doctor
Her search for the right physician led her to Dr. Ryan Werntz, an orthopedic surgeon at Broward Health, who was willing to listen to her concerns and guide her through her treatment journey.
Robotic-Assisted Hip Replacement
Upon examination, Dr. Werntz diagnosed advanced arthritis and suggested a robotic-assisted hip replacement procedure. This state-of-the-art treatment uses the CORI® Surgical System, a radiation-free tool that enhances the precision of joint replacement surgeries.
Investing in Advanced Technology
The CORI® Surgical System allows for greater precision, a less invasive procedure, and a faster recovery, translating to less pain and improved mobility for patients like Gwynne.
Experiencing the Healing Process
Her recovery exceeded her expectations. Within two weeks of her hip replacement surgery, Gwynne was able to move around with minimal assistance.
Encouragement for Others
Based on her positive experience, Gwynne underwent her second hip replacement just two months later, fully confident in Dr. Werntz and the Broward Health team. She advises individuals experiencing chronic pain to seek help and not delay their treatment.
