Patient Reviews
Apr 02, 2024
I saw Dr Zwahlen following a wind sport accident where my knee bent 45 degree the wrong way causing a nearly fully ruptured MCL. I was able to see Dr Zwahlen the day after I called, got an MRI 2 days later, and followed up with Dr Zwhalen via videoconference for his read of the MRI and next steps, which was quite convenient. No surgery was needed; 90 days in a brace with stationary bike exercise for rehabilitation. I was fitted with a top of the line brace at Dr Zwahlen's medical office building and been recovering well.
