Of the 18 or so people I talked to Dr. Steven Ngyuen (I think I have the spelling correct) Optimotion was highly recommended as he does the side procedure which tends to have shorter recovery time. In any case all of the people I talked to indicated there was a waiting period to get the operation, up to 7 months was mentioned. If you have a primary care physician they may be able to help getting you to be seen by an orthopedic surgeon.
Send me a PM if you would like to discuss or see my brace.

Which DONJOY brace do you have? I am dealing with bone-on-bone and so far, nothing has helped. If I can delay surgery, I'm all in. DONJOY offers so many different styles, I'm interested in which worked for you.
