Dr. Tricarico again revisited the options of knee replacement vs continued exercise and weight loss, along with cortisone injections to treat my knee pain. With this being a huge life-altering decision (albeit temporary), I am still committed to the non-surgical approach to handle the occasional knee pain experienced by osteoarthritis in both knees. Dr. Tricarico explained courses of treatment, referred me to an Orthopaedic Surgeon for a second opinion and further discussion of options.

Dr. Tricarico reviewed my latest blood work with me, addressing my concerns about different results. He further explained the reason some of them were abnormal, and I voiced concern about them as well. He then asked me to return in approximately 2 weeks for another testing to rule out bad result readings and if the levels are still abnormal, perhaps change my blood pressure medication. Dr. Tricarico is a trusted provider and I do recommend him to friends around my retirement village. Several of my friends have made the switch to his service.
