I had an appointment at OSS Urgent Care. Dr. Gilhool was a step-in for the scheduled doctor. He provided excellent service to me, even though he was doubling his workload that day. He listed to my complaints about knee pain. He reviewed a recent x-ray from a different problem, then referred me to physical therapy, an MRI, and a follow up with a sports medicine doctor. I had my first PT appointment today as well as the MRI. This has been a very good start to determine the exact actions to reduce the knee pain and strengthen my knee and leg muscles to get back to normal activities.
