Dr. Aronowitz explained the surgical process used to repair my torn menincus with displaced flap. Explained that PRP would reduce inflammation but not heal this. Gave me the option to delay the surgery and use RICE to promote healing. Gave me a home exercise PT program to strengthen my leg muscles. Advised me of OTC treatments for pain as needed and advised me to return if my knee worsened and I wished to use surgical intervention.

Tweaked my knee that I had injured playing football prior while snowplowing this past snowstorm. Woke up the next morning was in a tremendous amount of pain. Luckily they have 24 hour assistance to schedule an appointment and I saw the doctor that afternoon . He drained my knee and I walk out as if nothing ever happened to it.
