Joyce Center CenterREAD COACH CAL’S STORY John Calipari is known for being one of the most active and animated coaches in basketball. But in 2014, Coach Cal was in excruciating pain. That’s how he knew it was time for his second hip replacement surgery—and he knew he wanted it to happen at UK HealthCare’s Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine. Thanks to their innovative approach, Coach Cal’s recovery was much quicker and less painful than his first hip replacement, and he was able to get moving again soon after surgery. Today, he’s back to his signature pacing up and down the court—pain-free and ready to lead the BBN. Coach Calipari is proof of The Power of Advanced Medicine. “ YOU BETTER COME HERE AND GET AN OPINION”Sponsored By Jacob Toppin talks about the play of TyTy Washington Jr. 6 @KentuckyMBBThere’s a Kentucky Farm Bureau Insurance agent in every Kentucky county, which means you always have someone nearby who’s focused on your individual insurance needs.
