Dan's Story

Dr. Foran performed hip replacements on both of Dan’s hips a few years back, and he recently sent an update of where he is now:

“I just wanted to take a minute and send you a picture that was taken at a fairly recent testing that I underwent for promotion to 7th degree black belt taekwondo master. To put it in perspective, this is a 80 year old man, doing a reverse turning kick, pivoting and balancing on a leg that has a totally replaced ankle, and a totally replaced hip. Delivering a kick, pivoting a full 180° and kicking head high with a leg that also has a full hip replacement.

I just wanted to pass it on, and let you know that I appreciate what you did. You did a great job, and the new hips allow me to train hard 3-4 times per week without pain.”
