Has anyone found a really good doctor in the New York area? I've been disappointed by 2 ortho surgeons I've seen, for some intermittent knee problems last year and a nasty knee/calf problem this year that so far has me off the bike for 6 weeks.
Both docs were terribly rushed, and I got the impression that, if you don't have a cast or crutches, they can't be bothered.
I actually did better with acupuncture, because it was so patient and thorough -- but when she described it as "pain relief" I lost interest, as I'm only interested in structural soundness.
My problem may involve a cyst, which the doc didn't even mention and I only found out by requesting a written report from the MRI on the way out of the office.
