🚶‍♂️🏀✈️ Parenting + Career + Staying Active = A lot on your knees.

Whether it’s chasing toddlers, weekend basketball, or just making it through long airport days — knee pain in your 30s can feel like it’s stealing time from the things (and people) that matter most.

Here’s the truth: “normal” X-rays and MRIs don’t always explain why your knees hurt. That doesn’t mean you’re stuck. It means you need someone who looks deeper than the scan, builds a plan around your life, and helps you keep momentum instead of stopping and starting.

💡 You don’t have to choose between family, fitness, and feeling good.

A patient asked why they should pay to see this doctor when they could see an orthopedist for free. What might surprise some is that the doctor didn't try to change their mind. Instead, the doctor simply wished them well. Have you ever had a similar experience?

Is "covered" the same as "effective"? Considering healthcare choices, it's easy to focus on immediate costs. But what about the hidden price of time lost, uncertainty, and delayed healing? It's about more than access—it's about understanding and fixing the root problem.

The medical world is quietly shifting, and it's impacting everyone. What happens when doctors become the "third opinion" after Google and AI? Why should physicians celebrate this change? It's a complex shift with big implications.
