Becky Schreoder’s journey with Jonathan G. Yerasimides, M.D., a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon, highlights the importance of personalized care in hip surgery.

When it came time for hip surgery, Becky had already heard about Dr. Yerasimides—known as “Dr. Y” to many. Her grandmother, mother, and even her neighbor had all been his patients. This long-standing reputation made Dr. Yerasimides the clear choice for her procedure.

On the day of surgery, Becky arrived early, and by the afternoon, she was back home, walking with a walker and feeling much better. A week after surgery, she was driving again—something she found hard to imagine before the procedure.

Becky appreciated the thoughtful care she received throughout the process. From the receptionist at the surgical center to the pre-op nurse,everyone contributed to making her feel comfortable and well-cared for. Clear communication helped her understand each step, which eased her concerns.

Although Becky hopes she won’t need surgery on her other hip, she knows she would return to Dr. Yerasimides and his team if necessary. Her experience reinforced her trust in their expertise and patient-centered approach.

Becky’s experience illustrates how focused care can support a smooth recovery and restore mobility.
