LINKS

The following is a list useful links that I have compiled. If you wish to be added to this list, please send me an e-mail.

Here you will find the site of Keith Brewster, he was one of the first people i know who had an American Resurfacing. His site is dedicated to resurfacing, and also discusses THR, and you will find as much information as you will need.
In my opinion, the Number 1 site on the net, with enough links to manufacturers etc to keep you busy for a long time.

The official website of the manufacturers of the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR)

Here you will find a whole community of around 319 members , some of which have had a Resurfacing and some of which are gathering research with the intention of having the surgery in the future. Here you will find answers to your questions. I use the screen name 'Richie'.

Website dedicated to Total Hip Replacement (THR). Here you will find answers to your THR questions, this is of course something very different to RESURFACING.

This is the official web-site of Dr.Koen de Smet, in Belgium, Europe. The surgeon who carried out my Resurfacing. Here you will find a lot of information about THR & Resurfacing, along with downloadable movies of the procedure.
Anybody considering this surgery should take a good look at this site, and if you wish, you can even make an appointment to go and see him.

Corin are the forefounders of the UK Hip Resurfacing prosthesis. They have a very nice site that will help answer some of your questions.

Website of the manufacturers of the American Conserve Resurfacing implant.
