Cop’s commander asks: “Are you sure you’ve had hip surgery?”

Cincinnati law enforcement officer Mike Bell delayed getting hip replacement surgery for as long as he could stand the pain. But nearly eight years ago, he finally reached his limit.

Bell’s wife, an emergency room physician, recommended that he consult an orthopedic doctor. They went to see Dr. Robert Burger at Beacon Orthopaedics, one of Bell’s high school football coaches. An examination and X-ray revealed that Bell had significant arthritis in his hip that was causing frequent flare-ups. Dr. Burger referred Bell to Dr. Haleem Chaudhary, a hip and knee replacement specialist.

Hip replacement gives former all-star “a new lease on life”

Former Cincinnati Reds player and five-time all-star George Foster wasn’t ready to slow down when he started having trouble with his hip. Luckily, he didn’t have to.

“I was having complications with it for probably a year or two but didn’t know what it was,” Foster said. “I was thinking that it was in the muscle and never thought it was the hip itself because I had taken an MRI and it didn’t show that.
