Nancy Murphy’s Story

Total Hip Replacement Surgery

“Why did I wait so long before I went.” That is what Nancy Murphy thinks when she talks about having a total hip replacement at the St. Elizabeth Total Joint Center.

Dr. Jonathon M. Spanyer, an affiliated orthopaedic surgeon with OrthoCincy Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, performed Nancy’s surgery at St. Elizabeth Healthcare.

Nancy had such a good experience with her right hip, when her left hip started to hurt, she didn’t waste any time. “Two months after my first hip replacement my left hip started to hurt. I knew I couldn’t stand the pain constantly, so I called and made an appointment.”

Nancy recalls her experience, “I look back and I wonder why did I wait so long before I went.”
