    Who do you think is the best to get a referral for.

    I have had ongoing trouble with my right knee for years now, I had surgery with Tigh O'Sullivan about 4 years ago and the problem still exists. Is there a really good guy I can get to see either in WRH or Whitfield as I'm in the VHI. Been putting it off for ages but I'm only 36 and cant jog or run, only walking for me, but would love to go running again or even play indoor football again.

    from what i heard tigh o sullivan was one of the best around.
    he does a lot of hurlers and footballers etc and is held in high regard

    Its being years since i've seen Tigh O Sullivan and he was the best then dont know now though,
    A Mr Molloy in Cork is very good for sports injuries but im not sure if he specialises in knees.

    tigh osullivan is regarded as the best knee specialist in the south of ireland, there is a long waiting list just for him alone in the public sector, im not too sure about if you have private, go see him again and see what he has to say, if you are not happy, you can always get a 2nd opinion, get it sorted either way though, 36 is wayyyy to young to be only able to walk .

    best of luck , i have had knee surgery twice so i feel your pain !!!
