I didn’t actually get to see Dr Kilbride, only his PA. While everyone was exceptionally nice and friendly, the explanation for my hurt knee felt dismissive and lacking. Although I’ve never experienced any pain or issues with it before, the explanation was the cray showed old stuff in there (?!) that was probably aggravated. Huh! An anti inflammatory was offered to me but nothing was done to resolve this new pain caused by an injury. :(. I suppose I should feel grateful the PA ordered an MRI for the hip flexor pain that also was a result of the injury!
