Trying find a good orthopedic surgeon/specialist here in LA. However, phone calls to medical offices on Norco with time ticking away the Friday before Thanksgiving is practically torture.... Does anyone know one or have any suggestions? Pretty please??? The novelty of breaking my leg in half has sooooo worn off..... Sigh

Kerlan Jobe group in Los Angeles. www.kerlanjobe.com They also are used by many sports teams, including the Lakers and Dodgers...So you know they are good. They did therapy on my back. After 9 months of working with another doctor in Torrance and getting no where, Kerlan Jobe had me back at work in a month.
Need references on an orthopedic physician!!!! I had a disagreement with a ladder (long story

I think Valley Orthopedic Inst (VOI) in Palmdale by the auto mall is very good (valleyorthos.com). So is Los Angeles Ortho attached to Palmdale Hospital (laortho.com). Dr. Alon Antebi is very good in Lancaster at AVORS (avorsmedgroup.com). See which one will get you in first! The ones with a nationwide reputation in LA is Kerlan-Jobe, closest office is in Pasadena (kerlanjobe.com). Southern California Orthopedic Institute (SCOI) has an excellent rep, closest office is Valencia (SCOI.com). That being said, the most important though perhaps not most urgent is to make sure your Brain stem isn't compromised so that your posture is straight while you heal and you don't get other health complications! For that I recommend GDEDC.com!
anyone know a good orthopedic DR for Morgan to see in Charlotte AND in LA???? For her shoulder issue

Allyson Rice I was referred for my knees to the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopedic Clinic a few years back and saw Dr. Neal ElAttrache 310-665-7200. (Its funny, I just saw Chelsea Handler interviewing an athlete last week and they both went to Dr. Elatrache too)
Can anyone recommend a great Orthopedic Doctor in the LA area that you trust? I fractured my knee and my doc is out of town until next week and I really want someone to look at my x-rays/ MRI results...thanks! All leads appreciated....love and gratitude.

Can any one refer me to a good hand specialist I. Los Angeles. Have trigger thumb and tendonitis in hand. Not good for a massage therapist and reflexologist Been getting by but really hurt it tonight working on an obese guy. Icing and taking 800mg of advil now.

Kerlan-Jobe Clinic over by Howard Hughes Center has some of the best orthopedic specialists in LA. Hand/wrist specialists are Steven Shin and David Hay. Check out their website, kerlanjobe.com. I haven't used them, but I have gone there to specialists for other body parts.
Does anyone have a recommendation for an orthopedist in the South Bay (Torrance, Palos Verdes, San Pedro, etc.) or in Orange County that does wrists or general broken bones? If so can you please email me here on FB their contact info? Thank you.
