Why are you posting this? Just ask Kirby! Patrick is a frequent flyer at Southern Orthopedics and they are now located on Metairie Road. He sees Dr. Hoffman there.
Nola folks - looking for recs for a good orthopedist who specializes in knees. Got any?

Lance Estrada on Prytania!! He did surgery on my feet and did an amazing job!
Julie B. replied:
Tim Finney at Southern Orthopaedic. He did my daughter Caroline's first ACL. Liked him so much we almost considered flying her home so he could do her second!

Lance Estrada
Aimee F. replied:
Rick Meyer at Touro Infirmary - fixed my knee and sent me to an awesome physical therapist. Rehab post surgery is essential. My other two surgeons are now retired. After three knee surgeries, your physical therapist is essential . . . the post surgery work is critical.
Kristen K. replied:
Lance Estrada is the best! He repaired a torn meniscus in my right knee several years ago and did a fantastic job!
Edward P. replied:
Misti Suri, the Saints orthopedist, fixed my knee a few years ago. He is at Ochsner.

I had my back surgery at Bone & Joint Clinic on the West Bank. My friends dad's practice. They're all so nice and their nurses made me feel very comfortable before/during/after. I think Dr. Habetz is their knee specialist.
Lynn M. replied:
Gregor Hoffman is a great knee guy!
Piper M. replied:
Hey! Looks like you have a ton of good recs, but I'll just throw this out there since Andrew worked with these guys when he was doing his sports fellowship with Ochsner. Misty Suri and Scott Montgomery are both great orthopods and Andrew said he'd recommend them for knee issues. Hope you get it figured out soon!

Lance Estrada by Touro
Rod M. replied:
Dr Answorth Allen at HSS here in NYC is one of the best anywhere. I've sent 6 pro-athletes and many other athletic people to him w rave reviews. I know it's not NOLA but if it is for someone athletic you should seriously consider him
Does anyone have a pediatric orthopedist they recommend? Other than Dr. Acousti at children's.

Dr. Bennett at Tulane is wonderful!! He treats Addie for her hip
Laura F. replied:
Dr Bennett at Tulane handled Pierce's scoliosis - very thorough and good bedside manner... Listens to what parents have to say as well... Hope everything is ok!
Lauren L. replied:
Dr Waldron at Ochsner.
Jennifer B. replied:
Dr. Chavez at Children's. I am assuming he is still there-my middle one fell when he was not even 2 and fractured his elbow--he was AMAZING!!!
Kellie J. replied:
Carlie goes to Raven Lee at Children's and we love her.
Tia M. replied:
Dr Southern or Dr Gonzales at children's
Megan K. replied:
Love Dr Bennett at Tulane.
Rachelle C. replied:
Dr Gonzales at Children's, Kobe saw him and he was great.
I'd go to Scott Montgomery at Baptist or Mark Meyer at O main campus. If you have to go to Tulane Dr Sanchez is total joint. I don't know the new sports medicine guy there but Van Sice was a resident when I worked there. You can always lookup reviews on healthgrades
I need a good orthopedist in Nola. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Courtney M. replied:
Dr. Laurie at Orthopaedic Associates is the one who worked magic on my knee - I cant say enough good things about him
Maribeth C. replied:
McNulty at Southern Ortho
Crissy O. replied:
I do not recommend Dr Todd at southern ortho.
Britton G. replied:
Love love love Dr. Laurie and Dr. Kevin Watson. They are the BEST. They never recommend surgery unless Absolutely necessary. They also have the best bedside manner.
