Dr. Boyden did a full replacement on my hip in 2018. I couldn't be happier with the results. I snow ski in winter and I ride bikes all summer long. Both of which I take seriously. I recently went in for what I thought may be a problem. The x-rays showing my hip implant to still be perfect. On top of it all he's just a really nice guy. I would recommend him to anyone. It turns out I have a strained ligament no big deal.
