This appointment was for an annual hip arthritis exam including x-ray. My hip didn't bother me at all but my knee was giving me trouble and quite painful causing falling. PA, Rivas, was kind enough to look at my 6-mo knee x-rays on file and talk with me about options and arrange to handle it as soon as practicable. No muss, no fuss, no referrals, no months long waits. I was able to get an appt for knee -care in little more than 2 months with PA Rivas. Thank you, Providence
