I highly recommend Maine Medical Center. In particular, Dr. George Babikian. He was the first surgeon in Maine to use the Minimally Invasive Anterolateral Hip Replacement procedure. I was admitted at 8 am and discharged the following day at 11 am...with the help of a walker, I walked to our car

Dr. Babikian did my father’s second hip and it was like night and day compared to his first. My father was mobile and ready for a return to life after surgery. Amazing job by the surgical team! Highly recommended.

The other replacement was “traditional” and lead to a protracted, painful recovery. Not worth it.

He did mine and I went home the same day. I’m very happy with the results

He's fantastic...I wish the rest of my body felt as good as my new hip!

Dr. Rana is in the same practice and did both my hips. He is the best. I went from constant pain to mountain tops and weight loss.
