Adolf Schroeder, a retired University of Missouri professor, underwent hip replacement surgery in December 2004. He shared some observations about his surgery with Dr. Bal (at right). He said:

"It was the best experience. The procedure went very well, and I did not have significant pain. The results were very good -- I was walking a few days later and driving a few weeks later. I can do everything I want to do. After the surgery, I realized that what people had told me was true: I wished I had gone ahead and had it months earlier. I have had no negative aftereffects or problems whatsoever."
