Hi
No surgeons in the us use the BMHR. A few years ago, there were suppose to be trials, but they were cancelled. You have to go overseas to get a BMHR or a ceramic on ceramic hip resurfacing by Mr. McMinn. Dr. Bose of India, Mr. McMinn and several German surgeons
http://www.surfacehippy.info/listofdoctors.php#Germany (http://www.surfacehippy.info/listofdoctors.php#Germany) use the BMHR.

I will be seeing Mr. McMinn at the Aug 3 meeting in Columbus OH. I will ask about the ceramic hip resurfacing device and an update about the BMHR. The meeting is open to perspective patients. Email me if you would like to attend pwalter@surfacehippy.info
