Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear Sir/Mam,
I understand your concern. It is always imperative that patients are mobilised after the surgery especially the geriatric age gp. I would suggest you employ a physiotherapist who can start the gait training initially with with a walker which can later be shifted to a tripod stick after she gains some confidence. Hope this has helped you.
