Probably a guy who is employed by LSU Athletics or the Saints.

Not from Louisiana so just my guess.

As others have said, Bankston is fairly good.

If you don't mind sharing, what are you having to get done?

Bankston, but he was so booked up when I tore mine up that I had Robichaux do mine and have no complaints.

Not me, but my uncle. He's having lots of pain and his knee wants to "lock up" on him. Just want to try to help him get to the best Dr he can.

A bit of an understatement IMO. He did great work on my right ACL/MCL back in '08.

My dad had knee replacement done by him. I'd refer your uncle to him.

Might want to ask Delvin Breaux how that has worked out.

Pretty sure that’s why Bankston took over for the Saints is b/c of the Breaux situation

]Felix H. Buddy Savoie

He is very good but his practice concentrates on shoulder, elbow, and wrist disorders
