You have two C-shaped cartilage discs on either side of each knee that work to stabilize and protect your knee joints. These are your menisci. A meniscus lacks the blood supply to be able to heal itself, so a tear must be professionally diagnosed and repaired.
Is your knee locking as you walk? Do you feel a popping sensation or pain as it bends? Meniscus tears do not repair themselves and can affect your ability to exercise and perform daily activities. Our orthopaedic specialists in Austin, TX, can diagnose and repair your meniscus tear so you can get back to the activities you enjoy.


I saw Dr Kay for my carpal tunnel symptoms and proceeded with surgery. He was very professional and thorough . The location was great; the process wasn’t stressful at all. He did a great job!! Thank you Dr Kay and staff.
