4.0 star star star star star_borderAI had to choose an option and do not know what that choice means down the line for my stage 4 hip xray issues??? I feel so uncertain as to what I will be doing after my choice and what outcome to expect for an 85 year old very healthy woman???I hope together a second opinion by a doctor that will explain the above consequences of my choice.

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderHe wasn’t interested in anything I had to say and wouldn’t let me talk. He decided that, due to my age and past issues, that what I was experiencing was normal and I should find a way to deal with it. He was recommended to me and I am sure he is a good surgeon. He came in complaining that my case was very complicated he was not prepared to evaluate without more information. I felt like he was only interested in straight forward problems that he could just do surgery and be done.

4.0 star star star star star_borderHe was pleasant. Dr. Lupo took the time to explain everything. He provided options but also provideda recommendation. Most doctors I visited, provided me with options but would not provide a recommendation. I was told it was my choice - but they are the experts. I appreciated Dr. Lupo's honesty.

5.0 star star star star starDr Lupo was down to earth, knowledgeable, upfront with his diagnosis and recommendations. I have total faith in him even for the brief time I saw him. I would have no problem choosing him should I ever need a knee procedure.
