hip labral tear repair

I have been diagosed with a hip labral tear and need to have surgery.  How can I find the most experienced surgeon as close to my home (Pittsburgh) as possible.  I have tried to do some online research without gaining any good information.

You should go to the nearest medical school/orthopaedic facility and go for an examination near an Orthopaedician and discuss the options for surgery. Take also a second opinion and in your case it is good to go through the doctor who diagnosed your case of hip ligament tear. Take care!

Here is a name of a Dr. that performed a Hip Labral Tear repair for me a few years ago. I was fully recovered in 3 months.  He is excellent.  He also takes time to explain procedures and answers your questions.  I am sure you will like him.  His name is Dr. Burke of Burke and Bradley Orthopedics out of Pittsburgh.  Their office is at St. Margarets.  Here is the phone number. 412-784-5770  I hope this helps you.   Sincerely Beetle52
