Hello There. I can understand your concern. you just have mentioned that you fell from the stairs. but what exactly did you have? why do you feel that the doctor is "dicey"? also, you have all rights to consult another orthopedician and take a second opinion. but whatever you do, do it fast. you can book an appointment with another orthopedician using this same app and consult him in person. best regards, Dr. Anil kumar jain.
