Please recommend your best knee doctor on the north side of town. I have tendinitis in my knee and the guy that I saw at Ortho Carolina said that there was nothing that could be done. (that was last year) It is getting worse and now there is a dull throbbing pain almost all the time. Need another opinion and something done.

While he's not on the north side of town, I have used and recommend Dr. Barron. He specializes in sports medicine and was the Panthers' Ortho doc at one point in the past. He's on Wendover Road, about a mile off of Independence Blvd. A trip to his office would be an extra 10-12 minute drive, depending on the time of the day, from I-77/I-85 intersection.

What doctor did you see at Ortho Carolina? My husband and daughter have seen Dr. Matthew Ohl. He's with Ortho Carolina. We liked him and he was highly recommended.

Dr Ohl did my knee surgery, as well as the knee surgery of my neighbor, and we were both VERY pleased. Consider this a double endorsement.

hmmmm. Saw Dr. Ohl for a different injury a few years ago, was not only NOT impressed, did not return to him for the final "checkup".

Maybe I acted with too much haste????

THIS! He did my ACL replacement in '03, and he is AMAZING.

(I found him through a recommendation from a friend after a horrible experience with an Ortho Carolina doctor as well...hmm...)
