Need a referral to a San Diego hip expert

Triathlon Forum

Maybe it’s just my advancing age, but I’ve developed a weird pain in my hips that’s exacerbated by cycling and running. I need to see an MD, but I’d appreciate some input into whom I should see.

Can anyone refer me to a hip specialist in San Diego who has experience with runners and cyclists?

Thanks.

Hi Greg,

I would highly recommend Core Orthopaedic, in Encinitas:

http://www.coreorthopaedic.com/

They are a group of physicians, orthopedists, etc., and they have a lot of expertise with athletic injuries. One of their main guys, Greg Loren, is our team doctor at Cal State San Marcos (I even got a quote in on one of their “athlete services” page!). I’m sure they have someone on their staff with expertise in hip injuries.

Good luck,

Steve Nichols

Chris Maund - at the Chek Institute

He’s an expert at looking at your whole exercise regime

Your local strip club should have plenty of experts and your visit might be more amusing than any MD’s office.

I’d suggest hanging around used music shops or Spoon concerts - bound to be lots of hipsters there.

Brian Kildow 760-815-0616, highly recommended. Won’t cost you an arm and a hip either !
