Dr John Franklin replaced my hip last month. He is very personable, even though his skill-set and knowledge is unmatched. He also visited me daily in the hospital prior to my surgery (delayed 5 days due to hyponatermia). My hip feels great and I'm walking, climbing stairs, etc. unassisted for the 1st time in over a year! Thanks Dr Franklin!!!
