A member asked:
Who do i contact for genu varum surgery? and how long will it be fully healed after the surgery? (5'10, 19 years, athletic)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
An Orthopedist who: Specializes in knee surgery. He'll assess you, get xrays, maybe ct scan, ; then formulate a plan of care, depending upon the dx. He'll tell how long it'll take to heal. Generally any bony surgery of this type takes at least 3 months. Good luck.
