@SinBinVegas @shoelace203 Stuff can be two things.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@SinBinVegas @Desdante1 An athletic trainer will perform therapy for athletes in recovery and after surgery. Some of those athletic trainers are potentially also physical therapists and occasionally an athlete will work with both a PT and an ATC. Depends on the injury and the necessity for rehab.

@LindeenRobin @derwood73 @SinBinVegas There’s not a surgeon in the world that would watch that after a surgery and not get an upset stomach! So glad he was right back in there!

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@rennieoch @SinBinVegas Yup. Those are both on my list too.

Hip? Labrum? Hamstring? Groin? Knee? I don’t like the way he postured the hip immediately after the injury and then refused to put weight on it out the tunnel. VGK has had some bad luck with goalie hips. Let’s hope tomorrow’s MRI brings good news!

Here's the video of the injury to Thompson.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@CattyWampus44 Awesome question though. I always watch the video if a patient has one. But their sideline exam, office exam, and imaging are ALWAYS more helpful than the video.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@CattyWampus44 Good video is rarely available. Except TV sports! But even today with many angles we have “left lower extremity” to go on! I’ve seen horrific videos with minimal injury, and simple videos with terrible injuries. So his exam, X-ray, and MRI will have to tell his whole story.

@sarah_leanne89 Hi Sarah. Sorry to hear about your foot/ankle. I have a partner that sees and evaluates our foot/ankle injuries. I would be happy to get you set up with her. If you send a number to reach you, I can have our office call and set it up. An in person look is the only accurate way.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@Loo_Kang Wish I had a good answer for ya! But nope. Zero idea what happened there. Their comment of left side (leg) is about all I can see there. Hopefully an update soon.

@SinBinVegas Congratulations!

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@SinBinVegas Average is a lie. High percentage. Like 99.8% or better.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

Happy to lose to a worthy opponent!!! Best of luck Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid!

Shout out to these boys! @PVLL_NV Nevada state champs! Lost in the regional semifinals in San Bernardino to Utah. One step away from the World Series! Proud of you. Top 20 in the country! In the studio today, airing tonight on 8! We’ll be watching! @KLAS_People @LittleLeague

[Crovetti Orthopaedic @CrovettiOrtho]

So proud of @vegassportsdoc's son to be part of the @PVLL_NV team that won the NV State Championship & are heading to San Bernadino, representing NV in the regional tournament! Please support and watch our local champs tomorrow on ESPN at 6pm vs. Utah! https://t.co/W6BcFbIAed

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@SinBinVegas @EmilScottie But again it’s a game of averages and percentages! Not knowing what he had done, my best bet is that we’ll get a good idea around 6 months regarding his returnability.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@SinBinVegas @EmilScottie Labrum surgery should be good to go by then. Rotator cuff surgery is usually longer than that.

[vegassportsdoc @vegassportsdoc]

@SinBinVegas @NHLJackManning @lvhatrick702 Some like their crab meat warm. If it’s brown it might not be worth putting in your mouth though. Just sayin.
