so mine is blown, along with my meniscus and a sprained mcl....i need a full acl reconstruction but the surgeon i was referred to can't even consult with me until september so i'm exploring other options (a.k.a. trying to find other surgeons). if anyone has any info on how to get into contact with any other knee specialists in the area (or ANYWHERE for that matter) it would be greatly appreciated since the recovery from the surgery is hella long and I want to get the process started as soon as I can so i lose as little skiing as possible! :)

when I got surgery on my shoulder it took for freaking ever. For surgens I think you are fairly screwed for the wait, unless you go to the private clinic in vancouver. They will do it right away, but it will cost like 10 grand. its called the Cambie surgery clinic. Its ok emma, I probably need surgery too, so we can be rehab partners.
