Broke my kneecap mountain biking

Now I'm going to go to another doctor or to CHOP, and hope they knows what is wrong and how to fix it.
 
Going to the new doctor on my first day back to school after Christmas break, so I´ll take that. Hope he knows what is wrong with my knee.
 
Well, it was not what I hoped for. I was told that the fact I can bend my knee 15 degrees in the wrong direction(pt measured that) is just an illusion from the angle you are looking at it from. Also told me that my PCL is fine, yet pt said that is why my knee feels loose, and why I can bend it so far in the wrong direction. I was also told a pain level of 2 at all times, isn't that bad. And was told a piece of my kneecap is somewhere inside my knee, and the x-ray I got cant see it. Somehow that can make my ligaments slide in and out of place, make my whole knee hurt, make some ligaments feel like they are burning, make me feel snaps inside my knee. Im no doctor, but being told everything is fine but if it's the same in 6 weeks that I need surgery? that doesn't sound fine to me. The only bad review of him matches everything he is doing and saying to me, he told them everything was fine but needed surgery, and the pain is fine since it's "not in the right spot". exactly what he is saying to me.
 
second that definitely time to seek a new specialist
 
Good luck to you young man. I have a bad knee from my accident,but I have to live with it,happy to be able to walk. I just hope you get the best help you need.....soon.
