Dr Tower reminds me of the good ole days when you were able to talk one on one with your Doc in a comfortable, stress free environment. A great office!

Good doctor, good advice. Did my TKR only when it was necessary. My advice - get his opinion (and DO LOTS OF P.T.)

I find Dr. Tower being one of the best Orthopedic Physicians around, he is extremely knowledgeable and dedicated and I like his philospohy of medicine. He made me feel comfortable, relaxed and walked me through my surgery and his staff made sure everything was taken care of during and post surgery. I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone that values their health and wants a doctor that’s holistic, experienced and looks out for you.

Mr. Trovato: We don't encourage patients sharing Protected Health Information publicly as it could be considered a violation of HIPAA's privacy requirements. We will respond directly to the email you sent us. Thank you for contacting Tower Orthopedic.

How do I contact Dr. Tower himself? I am in South Carolina and wonder if he would do an Orthopedic telephone consultation as long as it is pre-approved by my insurance company.

Dr. Tower prefers the posterior approach to hip replacement. It is opinion that this approach results in fewer postoperative dislocations of the hip. Thanks for contacting us and we hope this information helps.

Is there any experts on MOM hip implants in the Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota area?

Unfortunately, it is impossible for Dr. Tower to know surgeons in every state that are experts in MOM hip implants. Therefore, he recommends going to this website: https://www7.aaos.org/member/directory/search.aspx?directory=public
