At age 70, after habitually walking four or more miles each day for many years, I experienced such severe difficulty in mobility that I had to rely on a cane and eventually a walker for even limited room to room movements. Dr. LaReau was highly recommended to me by a teacher colleague of my wife, based on the success Dr. LaReau demonstrated in restoring the full mobility of that colleague’s 87-year-old mother. It is now two weeks since Dr. LaReau completed the second of my two hip replac…

Mike and Judy Carroll, Glen Ellyn, Illinois

Early in 2011 I realized that the pain in my left hip was not going to go away if I didn’t get some professional help. I had been trying to cope with a hip that was progressively causing more problems for about 2 years, and nothing I tried on my own seemed to help. I finally told my primary care doctor about the pain and he suggested that I see Dr Justin LaReau with Hinsdale Orthopedics to see what was wrong. An exam and a couple of xrays showed that I had lost the cushion in the hip j…

I thank Dr. LaReau for giving me a few more years of pain free living. My surgery took 4 1/2 hrs. and he was still smiling when he told my wife and daughter that everything went well. After 2 months of physical therapy–I was able to walk a mile. Arthur W.

I am so pleased to have met Dr LaReau. He has given me my life back. I had been in such pain and unable to walk unassisted for at least a couple of years because a prior knee replacement loosened and broke due to a series of issues. I now have my new knee and it is an amazing piece of equipment. Though still working on rehab, I’m able to walk pain free and virtually unassisted. I will be able to walk up and down stairs properly for the first time in 10 years. My progress is amazing to me afte…

56 Year Old Left Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty

Being told that you need to have a major surgery is not what I wanted to ever hear in my lifetime. Being told that the top surgeon in Wisconsin couldn’t do the procedure just added to my anxiety. I was nervous about having the surgery, about what would follow and about meeting Dr. LaReau. I am a shy person and the idea of a complete stranger operating on me was a very scary thing. In reality Dr. LaReau made me feel comfortable from the first time I met him. I will never forget that firs…

70 Year Old Left Anterior Total Hip Arthoplasty

It’s difficult to find the word to express my appreciation and gratitude to Dr. Justin LaReau and his staff. I had been in pain for over ten years with both knees, had knee replacement five years ago that failed and brought me even worse pain. I came to Hinsdale Orthopaedics after a recommendation and met with Dr. LaReau. He felt he could help me. After Dr. LaReau performed revision surgery I have been pain free, so much so that I had him replace my other knee after only eights months. …

To all of you considering Total hip replacement surgery: My hip replacement surgery by Dr. Justin LaReau on Sept. 26, 2012 was unbelievable. Having had my right hip replaced 18 years ago, I expected the left hip to involve days in the hospital and a painful recovery. With Dr. LaReau’s skilled hands, using the anterior approach, I was on my feet that day with virtually no pain and spent one night in the hospital. I was walking the next day and needed minimal physical therapy. Dr. LaRe…

Hello, my name is James C. I had a horrific accident in 2011 and I was told that I would never walk again. As part of my injuries my right leg was bonded straight.

Within weeks after the procedure I was walking again and I was told by other surgeons that I would never walk again. Dr. LaReau and Gretchen are fantastic to deal with! They are prompt…
