Comments: Having had an unfortunate accident requiring lumbar fusion, as the healing process progresses, my aging dancer's hips which were previously not in pain aren't happy at all. My PT recommended Dr. Ochiai and I went in for an exam to assess the condition of my hips. He was so reassuring and careful and I left feeling more hope than I had in a long time--especially since he did not recommend surgery, but suggested other modalities that could help. I look forward to working with him to heal my hip issues. He's the physician of choice for the Washington City Ballet, so I really trust him to be able to accurately assess and treat the kinds of injuries those of us crazy enough to train in ballet get--especially older dancers. If we knew then what we know now...
