Review & Rating

I had a broken Femur in October. My Dr Called Dr. Cooper to meet me at the hospital. He was wonderful. Each appointment he has been kind and wonderful to me. I have been able to walk for the past two months, and Dr. Cooper is responsible.

I've had an incredible recovery from a total right hip replacement thanks to the surgical skills of Dr. H. John Cooper. I could not possibly overstate how impressed I was with both Dr. Cooper and his entire staff. I came to Dr. Cooper in October, 2015, after a violent fall in May of that year. I was 1st diagnosed with a right inguinal hernia, which was repaired in July, then an August MRI showed what appeared to be a fracture of the femur. Dr. Cooper explained that it wasn't a basic fracture, but instead damage to the top of the femur connecting to the hip joint and a full right hip replacement would be needed. Dr. Cooper's surgical assistant, Natalie Perez, was extremely professional, patient and kind, making the preparation for this procedure very smooth. My post-surgery recovery has been nothing short of remarkable. I was released from the hospital the following day, haven't taken a pain killer since being released and was walking unaided within 10 days. I could drive within 8 days and could walk up & down stairs reciprocally after just 11 days! I did assiduously follow Dr. Cooper's advice to constantly walk on it, ice the area to reduce the initial swelling and continuously weight bear on the new joint. The dissolvable sutures had virtually disappeared within 3 weeks. I was extremely fortunate to have connected with Dr. Cooper. There is NO ONE I could recommend more highly than Dr. H. John Cooper!

Went to Dr Cooper and he performed a total Left Hip replacement in April. No regrets. Very genuine and professional as well as his staff/nurse. Everything went great before, during and after my surgery.

He didnt help me. Didnt notice that i had been using cane on the wrong side after seeing me four times. Promised to meet with me and explain, but did not. I guess he had no good answers. Merry Christmas!
