    I think the provider was very dismissive with me, gave me three minutes, maybe four at the most, and somewhat didn't realize my pain experience with my other knee and being at my age, not wanting to go through two surgeries instead of one. But mostly just dismissive of my feelings and my questions.

    At my appointment time, I was seen right away at check-in and I was called into the patient room in a timely manner. Dr. Olsen came in, sat down, and I pulled up a chair next to him as he showed me my x-ray. He explained to me what my condition was clearly and he answered my questions. He suggested surgery and would follow up with me at a later date. The nurse scheduling for surgery called me the next day. She was very kind and understanding.
