After left hip replacement surgery, I began to have pain along the side of my thigh below the operated hip. The pain continued, with no relief after I healed from my surgery. After right knee replacement, I developed pain on the right thigh, and the pain on my left leg continued. Nothing seemed to help--physical therapy, prescription topical gels. etc. I went to Dr. Gosselink. He listened to all of my symptoms and treatments, diagnosed the pain as coming from my back. He prescribed a medication for nerve pain and gave me some samples. After taking one dose, my pain immediately went away. The MRI confirmed his diagnosis. After 9 months, I remain pain free. What a great doctor! And, because he is in MDVIP, he had the time to listen and diagnose my condition instead of having to hurry through the appointment to take care of other patients.
