What part of your body?

Yes.... which part? My guess...knowing you....ankle.

Kellen Choi in Naperville and Wheaton/Carol Stream. Dr. Lee refers patients to him.

Knowing you, I would have thought you would have installed the pin yourself!

Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush. They have offices at CDH as well. They are the team physicians for both the Bulls and the White Sox. I recommend them highly, from personal experience as well good referrals from others that have used them.

I second that.

However, he's my best of the best in my experience
If it's the hand - Dr. John Fernandez (through work)
If it's the knee - Dr. Brian Cole (through work)
If it's the back - Dr. Neil Fine (through work and personal experience)
If it's the shoulder - Dr. Marc Asselmeier (personal experience)

For such a young guy, Fan, you're a mess. Sorry for your pains.

Ended up at OAD HQ in Warrenville - they knew me well, I've used them a few times before.

I think it was Midwest I was trying to remember, (They had been discussed here and I was trying to recall them) I thought there was a new possible top shop in the area and I was going to give them a try but scheduled with OAD earlier today.

The break is apparently pretty common, it's my little toe. Snapped and turned at a 90 degree angle. I think the burning pain of the multiple shots that were given locally to anesthetize the area for resetting was almost as painful. Man do they burn.

After the shot at the hospital they simply took a pen between the toes and used it for leverage as they wrenched it, and I do mean wrenched it back into place.

Thanks for the blow by blow. Ouch! Sorry for your pains. Seriously! What ever you did to make this happen-stop it!

Before you express your sympathy, keep in mind his injuries were sustained while chasing ambulances...

Happened to my kid three times. I was blamed for each incident.
