I am from New Orleans and was in need of a hip replacement around the time of Hurricain Katrina. After the storms most of the good doctors moved away and it was hard to find a doctor or hospital that I felt comfortable performing my surgery in New Orleans. I have a sister in St. Louis who knew of Dr. Lux and arranged for me to see him there when I visited her. I immediately felt comfortable with Dr. Lux and a month later he replaced my hip. The surgery was at Barnes Jewish West County Hospital and the staff was great. I only spent 2 nights in the hospital and walked the afternoon of surgery. I spent another week with my sister and then returned to New Orleans to fully recover. It took about 6 weeks to heal completely. I was recently back in St. Louis for my 5 year check up and everything is perfect!!. I can't thank Dr. Lux and his staff enough for the great care they gave me during that difficult time in my life!!
