Total Hip Replacement Surgery – I would like to thank Dr Greig for giving me back my life to be pain free. I was in terrible pain for the last 6 months and finally could not walk in the last four months prior to him doing my Total Hip Replacement Surgery. The wait list in Alberta was two years, and I was in constant pain. I was put in touch with Dr. Greig at the Premiere hospital in Puerto Vallarta Mexico, through MedToGo, Robert Page.

All arrangements were made through MedToGo, and I was scheduled for my total hip replacement surgery early January, 2011. I was receiving a minimally invasive hip replacement on my right hip, a new procedure not done as of yet in canada. I spent a short stay of three days in a hospital that could match any high end hotel.

After surgery I woke to no pain and no sciacta. Dr. Greig had ended all that pain for me. I was up and mobile very quickly and then back in an apartment that was arranged for me through Servimed in Puerto Vallarta. I had nursing care come in to change bandages and Physio, which was included as part of the package and was started immediately to help with my quick recovery. I stayed in paradise for a month away from the Canadian winter.

When and if the time comes for my other hip to be replaced I will be definitly returning to Dr. Greig. He is an exceptional orthopedic surgeon.
