Orthopedic Doc

Though I am originally from NE, I recently moved back after living in CA for a few years. While I was out there, I had two knee surgeries and I'm still dealing with issues related to my injuries and surgeries that I really didn't anticipate. My CA doc said that I'm probably just going to have to deal with swelling and limitations but suggested I find a doc here that can monitor my problems or give me a cortisone shot if I need it. What I would really like is a doc who might also be able to suggest some ways for me to work on improving my knee issues if possible.It's so hard to find a new doctor in a new place--especially one who is sympathetic to the fact that I don't want to hang out on the elliptical the rest of my life. I would love any suggestions or recommendations.
