Patient Testimonials
Testimonial
I had my PAO surgery after finishing my sophomore year of high school. I had 3 hip surgeries prior to my PAO. Since 7th grade, I had always had a pain in my hip. When I first realized the pain my parents took me to a sports medicine doctor, soon after I started physical therapy for what I thought would be a few months but turned into around 3 years. Many misdiagnoses later and being forced to quit gymnastics, I went to a hip specialist. After an MRI we came to the conclusion that I had a Ischiofemoral impingement so a few months later I had surgery for that.
After fully recovering and doing many months of PT from that surgery, I felt that I still had pain in my hip area. The doctor told me that I had a torn labrum, so I had surgery again to repair that. Again… My hip pain was not relieved. I was very frustrated at this point and wasn’t sure that I had any hope that I would be able to even live a comfortable lifestyle sitting and walking without pain. Later I was told that I had minor hip dysplasia and my doctor referred me to Dr. Clohisy knowing that he is the best doctor to perform this surgery for me. In July of 2021 I had the PAO surgery. The surgery recovery was tough but it was all worth it. I am finally pain free after 5 years of many doctors visits, PT visits and more.
Now, I am a pole vaulter after having to quit gymnastics due to my hip pain. This surgery has enabled me to have the ability to become a National Champion, an Indiana state meet record holder, a school record holder, one of the top high school pole vaulters in the country and much more. I can not put into words how grateful I am for Dr. Clohisy and this surgery. It has given me the ability to live not only a pain free lifestyle but also be able to compete in Track and Field to the best of my ability. Now, I will be continuing my track and field career at the University of South Dakota on track scholarship on a pre-med track with the dream of helping others with similar injuries and situations like mine!

I will forever be grateful to Dr. Clohisy and he will no doubt always hold a special place in my heart. He gave me answers, many of which were incredibly hard to face. When I say he’s given me my life back, I don’t say that to be dramatic…but he truly, truly has. It takes a team; a MIGHTY team to overcome all the obstacles that hip dysplasia and a PAO surgery and recovery bring. He was a true professional who took the time to make me feel comfortable moving forward with the surgery. And his team was always responsive and easy to access after surgery.
At 9 months post-op, my husband and I went on vacation and I could tolerate 5-6 hours of driving. Before my surgery I couldn’t tolerate sitting for more than 30 minutes. I am so incredibly thankful for Dr. Clohisy and my WashU Ortho team.

I can’t thank Dr. Clohisy and his team enough for repairing my hip, giving me my quality of life back and the ability to return to competitive golf. I am grateful for him, his fellow Dr. West, nurse coordinator Madelyn, and everyone part of my experience at Washington University Medical Center. Not only does Dr. Clohisy exhibit world-class skills, but world-class patient care. From the first day I met him, he made me feel safe and deeply cared for. I am fully recovered and thrilled to report my hip feels better than I could have imagined. In fact, I am now able to participate in full team activities completely pain free. I am so thankful this surgery was successful, given the initial one failed with a different surgeon. Dr. Clohisy is very skilled in both the OR and by the bedside and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and outcome.
