Where can I find specialists for greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS)?
I believe I suffer from greater trochanteric pain syndrome ("GTPS" or "trochanteric bursitis"). I read your article on Medpedia that talks about GTPS. I am considering GTPS surgery and was wondering if you could recommend how to go about finding a surgeon who has successfully performed the procedure numerous times. I am willing to travel if necessary. But I live in Pasadena, California, and if I can find a surgeon locally, that would be very helpful. Thank you very much for your assistance in advance.
