Looking for an orthopedic surgeon referral

My knee is giving me trouble and the people at the ER said I should go see an orthopedic surgeon. Anyone know of a really good one? I'm looking for someone specializing in knees and sports injuries.

Thanks!

McAdam is like the "Jag" of knee reconstruction.

This is the best way to find Orthopedic Surgeons :

http://www.seahawks.com/team/team-physicians.html

McAdam is on there. I've been to Khalfayan, he was okay.

Personally I really liked Chris Wahl at UW , he was just obviously really smart and actually spent a lot of time going over my MRI with me which no other orthopedic surgeon did.

I would trust that link but aren't all of the Seahawks broken and can't stay healthy for longer than 4 hour periods?

My brother-in-law is top notch Trauma Orthopaedic Surgeon (recently volunteered in Haiti). However, he is in Miami. I figured I would through his name out there just in case.

Let me know if I can help.

The guys at OPA have been highly recommended from various sources, unfortunately they don't take my insurance

I had my shoulder sugery done by Dr Roberts at Orthopedics International. Great guy, took a lot of time with me explaining everything, laying out options, and ensuring my PT was going well after the surgery. The Pro Club PTs originaly referred me to him and said they send most of their sports injuries his way.
