Hello Fellow Swimmers: Last week I fell and broke my knee cap, had surgery on Wednesday and two screws and some wire were inserted to put it back in place. The doctor at the ER is a orthopedic surgeon who specializes in shoulder and hands and once the initial consultation is over I thought it would be best to see a knee specialist, any thoughts? The doc was telling me to be off my leg completey for at least 6 to 8 weeks and I'm concerned over what kind of recovery and physical therapy I'll have to go thru.

Medicine was extremely specialized. Definitely go to a knee specalist. The doctor will give you the best idea of how long things will take.
