Torn meniscus Chiang Mai need surgeon

[DrPhibes]

Hi guys, slipped off the runner of my truck Halloween morning 2023.  Was recovering over time but that recovery has slowed to a stop.  MRI now reveals torn right knee meniscus.  Need a recommendation for surgeon if any of you have had it repaired.  

 

As always, thanks in advance!

Very good feedback on Dr. Chanakarn Phornputkul at Rajavej Hospital.

 

He also has his own clinic  across the river from the hospital. In Google msps as Chanakarn Orthopedic Clinic.

Why not enquire at Chiang Mai Ram I had seven operations carried out on my leg and shoulder after falling of a ladder. 

They have Orthopedic Specialists for each area of the body.

OP, I recommend you inquire about who is a good physio for post-op rehab.

 

As my surgeon of 30 years ago said to me, I just do a bit of trimming in there. The most important part of your recovery will be the rehab.

I had the surgery done by scope about 14 years ago at Sriphat. No complaints since. 1 day hospital stay.

And much more affordable than RAM!
