Me operé de la cadera izquierda el pasado 25/11/2013. A los 3 meses y medio de la operacion participé ya en la clasica ciclista Bilbao-Bilbao. A partir del 4º mes ya puedo hacer carrera, padel, tenis, etc. Magnífico profesional. Magnifico tambien el equipo Jordi, Lola e Ivet.
El dr- Gonzalez Adrio me ha operado de las dos caderas- En 2005 me puso la protesis en la izquierda y en la derecha lo hozo en octubre de 2012. En ambas ocasiones fue todo genial, la recuperación fue rápida y muy correcta y puedo andar y correr perfectamente. El trato de todo su equipo, maravilloso.
Tengo 59 años. Me operó a primeros Nov-2012, prótesis superficie. Estoy MUY satisfecho. He recuperado la movilidad al 100% y el dolor ha sido completamente eliminado.
Nota al equipo Adrio-Clinic: 10-EXCELENTE. Nota al doctor G.Adrio: :SOBRESALIENTE CUM LAUDE...lo pondría en un altar para adorarle.
