Drs. usually work in several hospitals. When I was researching my knee replacement you want some one on your knee who does a lot of the surgery you may need my knee Dr. in Thailand said he did 30 to 40 knee replacements a month. You do not want someone on your knee who has only done a few surgerys at least 10 amonth

Latest is for me not to do anything, Meniscus has been mostly fine for 10 years and it's currently back to normal, I'd prefer to avoid an op unless essential
April 15, 20241 yr One day during swimming my knee popped. Doctor in Florida did MRI and then there was arthroscopic surgery meniscus repair about 2001. Doctor said: In about 5 years you will have a problem with this knee. BTW doctor did a diagnostic procedure (there is a name for it I forget) where she put one of her forearms above the knee in front and one forearm below the knee in back and pushed. I almost hit the ceiling with pain. 5 years later almost to the day I could no longer walk. Full ALS repair at Khon Kaen Ram in 2007. No problems since as long as I don't twist the knee with temporary pain.
