If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372.

I appreciate that Dr. Billante has been willing to think outside the box to try and determine the source of my years-long knee pain. Third time's a charm? I have seen two other orthopedic doctors, both of whom operated on my knee to no positive effect, and were both so arrogant and dismissive that I looked elsewhere for better care.
