Joan Lindh

Joan Lindh - Revised Right BHR (Sept 1999)

Despite having revision surgery for a 'pseudotumour' in January 2010, Joan was completely satisfied with her BHR. "I've had 10 good years of my life restored to me," she explains. "Ten years ago, had I known that I would need a revision at this stage, I wouldn't have changed a thing - I'd have gone ahead with the resurfacing operation."
