Introduced himself and he extended his right hand for a handshake. He explained the xray findings and potential plan of action going forward. He was willing to make PT referral for my convenience. I do wonder based on the findings if MRI was necessary at this point but considered it to be from a reliability standpoint. (It will be an expensive measure)

The doctor was very nice. He was thorough and clear when explaining things. And bonus, he was very good at giving cortisone shots. It didn't hurt at all
