Advanced orthopedic hip surgery restores mobility for amputee teacher

When Arlington resident, amputee and beloved teacher Alan Austin suffered a fall just weeks before his scheduled knee replacement surgery, everything changed-leaving him with a fractured hip and in need of immediate, specialized orthopedic care.

At Medical City Arlington, orthopedic surgeon Adam H. Green, MD, performed a complex partial hip replacement and guided Alan through recovery, which required advanced expertise in hip and knee replacement, along with personalized rehabilitation.

Thanks to successful joint replacement surgery and comprehensive orthopedic care, Alan later returned for his knee replacement-and even referred his brother, who also had a successful outcome.

Today, both proof of the life-changing impact of expert orthopedic surgery and joint replacement care.
