Dr. McLawhorn performed an anterior hip replacement on me 13 months ago. I had been limping for a year and a half prior to the surgery, and felt pain in every step. The second I woke up in the hospital after surgery, the hip pain was 100% gone. I went in for surgery at 7:30 am and left the hospital, walked up the stairs and into my house that same afternoon (used the cane as instructed but had no pain in my hip or groin, just some normal soreness and swelling for a couple of weeks as expected from the procedure). I followed ... read more
My entire process was quick and seamless. I had my first appointment with Dr. McLawhorn in mid-April and was scheduled for hip replacement surgery in early May. I had done my own research, but Dr. McLawhorn was thorough in explaining the procedure and what to expect after surgery. His team was helpful and gracious during the pre-operative work up program. The surgery went exactly as described and I was really surprised at the relative lack of pain in the weeks afterwards. I was able to walk with a cane the day after surgery ... read more
I have my left hip replacement surgery 6 weeks ago with Dr. McLawhorn. From the time I came to see him all my fears were eased by his compassionate, kind and caring demeanor. Having the procedure performed by a highly skilled surgeon was truly wonderful. It was amazing that I experienced no pain and I could walk immediately after the surgery. I could walk without a cane on my 4th day after surgery but still used it for 3 weeks following his advise. Dr. McLawhorn used the best technique with computer assisted surgery and the ... read more
Dr. McLawhorn and his staff could not have made my Total Hip Replacement surgery easier for me. It has been one year since my surgery, and I am delighted by the improvement in the physical quality of my life. I had actually dreaded having this surgery, but am so thankful that I decided to go ahead with it. Dr. McLawhorn lives up to his superb credentials and I enthusiastically recommend him and HSS.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Dr. McLawhorn and his team at HSS in Stamford are a casebook study on a positive patient experience and successful medical outcomes. From the call to make the appointment, first visit with an X-ray, our meeting, pre-surgical preparation and a seamless surgery and overnight stay. HSS answers the phone orcalls right back, is flexible and accommodating and use the most cutting edge surgical techniques. I did research and made the right choice- 6 weeks since surgery and I move like I am 10 ... read more

Time taken to answer questions. Whole experience has been positive
Dr McLawhorn is an incredible surgeon! I had a THR done with the anterior approach and just one week after surgery I knew the pain I had prior to surgery was gone! I followed his very specific post op instructions very carefully. The whole process was very smooth and well thought out! I can not thank Dr McLawhorn, his incredible PA’s, Molly, Alissa, and Ryan (First Surgical Assist) for their timeliness and compassion to all of my questions post op and incredible care! I still can not believe I actually had a hip replacement,... read more
Timely, professional, informative post operative review with Dr. McLawhorn. Everything was done with highest quality and precision and meaningful redundancy such that errors and misunderstandings are almost entirely excluded. Most of my questions were anticipated and I was given pre-printed set of instructions and recommendations which are easy to understand and follow even for a feeble-minded person like myself. My assessment of Dr. McLawhorn is as follows. He is consummate professional and perfectionist and he works with t... read more
