Fantastic Dr
Dr. Pivec is exceptional. He performed hip replacements on both my right and left hips, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. He took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions, making sure I fully understood the procedure. From pre-surgery to post-surgery, he made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Dr. Pivec for anyone needing hip replacement surgery!.
Great job on surgery and personality
