A member asked:
I have a torn meniscus and doctors are egypt are telling me to do the surgery i want to know other doctors opinions and show them my scans to decide whether wether i should do it or no and if i should do it should i do it in egypt or the us?

This forum is for general medical/dental questions only. No second opinions or ability to view scans. You can see another local orthopedist or you can sign up on the paid portion of this website to consult virtually. I would think it would be best to consult with someone who could actually examine you and treat you. Great physicians in both Egypt and in the US.
