Knee issue, need otho referral, advice.

[Patrick]

Developed a severe case of bursitis and pateller issues training for VQ. Been through the bike fit discussions etc..(actually aggravated it on road bike hill work, dumb I know.) Been through the R.I.C.E. etc...

I'm looking for some advice from someone who has developed a chronic condition and has referral for an othopedic specializing in cycling/knees. It's a medial issue.

Thank you for any input, thanks.

You could try my guy. He's in Irvine and Fountain Valley and did my ACL surgery in 2001. He's big time mountain biker too. Dr. Howard J Marans. Sorry don't have the number with me but google it.

Might be a good idea to find a good therapists too.

This guy did my knee a few years ago. Apparently one of the best. Also does lectures and stuff at universities as he is the shizzle.
