When chronic joint pain limits your life, even the simplest activities can feel out of reach.
For Tom Poland, that pain is now a thing of the past—thanks to expert care from Dr. Yerasimides and the team at Louisville Hip & Knee Institute.
“Dr. Y, you’ve changed my life. Everything you said—you’ve exceeded my expectations.”
After struggling with hip pain that affected his mobility, energy, and quality of life, Tom turned to LHKI in search of a real solution. He remembers his very first visit clearly:
“The first time I went to the Louisville Hip & Knee Institute… they were so kind. They’re all so caring and nice. But really good professionals too, and they answer your questions. They appreciate that everyone’s an individual.”
Under the care of Dr. Yerasimides, Tom received a personalized treatment plan that helped him regain his independence and rediscover joy in everyday life.
“I’m sure I’ve gained about 30 years of lifespan… I feel like I’ve got a little life to catch up on. We’re planning trips. I’m free—free at last.”
Now pain-free, Tom is back to planning getaways, staying active, and enjoying more moments with the people he loves. While he laughs about having “a lot of other pains” that come with age, his hip is no longer one of them.
