As for three incisions... NOT if he takes a minute...Your Dr. can get to your hip if he is going down to L4, mine did! I DID NOT have a separate incision for my bone graft harvesting. You are the patient and he should respect your wishes. I feel you needed to know of options to these situations as it can only help you in the short/long term. One more thing about bone grafting. Ask if he plans on filling in the graft area in your hip with bone chip as this helps to greatly reduce the pain from the graft removal.
