Hi Everyone. I came across this forum like many of you searching for some answers. Last year I was training for a 5km and was hit by a speeding car while I was crossing in a crosswalk. I sustained several injuries, including a substantial labral tear on the medial and lateral sides of my hip joint. I am a personal trainer and yoga instructor by trade and have not been able to work since and am in daily pain. I cannot walk without the assistance of a cane and some days can’t walk at all. I had several MRIs done (went privately, the wait was up to 1yr otherwise), one of which was of my hip, which showed the labral tear. Dr. Gilbart was highly recommended to me, so ended up going privately to see him. Dr. Gilbart wanted a MRI Arthogram (contrast) performed, which I did privately (the wait would have been 18 months) The MRI Arthogram showed the tear is bigger and on both sides of my hip. I am now again waiting to get back in to see him. There is a big hold up going to see him privately and I understand he is the best of the best when it comes to orthopedic surgery, but does anyone know of another orthopedic surgeon in BC? This wait is horrible and I so desperately want my hip fixed so I can have some movement again and then begin to deal with these other injuries. I miss training so much.
