Which Type Of Doctors Can Do Hip Replacement On An Overweight Women?

I would like to know if there are any surgeons that will do a hip replacement on me. Im overweight and seen 2 Dr.s regarding this. One said yes but he is 300 miles from where I now live. The other Dr. said I needed to loose weight?! It is very difficult for me to walk, hence losing weight is hindered.
