I visited orthopaedic. clinic this morning at Etobicoke William Osler hospital. I did not have a long wait at all. Dr Quinn gave me a quick diagnoses for knee replacement under the assessment of that we refer all patients your age for replacement surgery and also they wouldn’t do orthoscopy on someone my age. I am 72. Also said MRI is misuse of system etc etc. I was hoping he would address the previous meniscus injury and request re MRI. My physiotherapist was concerned my knee locked due to the meniscus injury and also was hoping he would address bakers cyst and having my knee drained due to fluid on my knee and immobility due to both meniscus not being clipped and bakers cyst. He said there was no fluid. I had been icing knee and resting it for two days and perhaps fluid it was pooling across my knee and where the meniscus injury is and below my knee. His diagnosis was quick and abrupt. He left the treatment room and was not open any enquires from me. Except the one when I said about trimming the meniscus and draining the fluid. This is what my family doctor recommended that they do and my physiotherapist felt was the issue. I feel he limped
Me into a category and was not addressing the real issue. I have been told I have mild arthritis which I feel a replacement knee is a hasty decision. I am continuing my physio in a week and will get another opinion re addressing the meniscus injury and bakers cyst which may have cleared up by now.
