Subject: Ortho recommendations in Houston area?

Does anyone have a good ortho (knee, specifically) recommendation in the Houston area?  

While out on a training ride on the 4th of July, I got hit by a truck and thrown off my bike.  The first body part to make contact with the ground was my knee; doctor thinks it dislocated my kneecap (and popped back into place at some point) and may have torn something.  I have an MRI tomorrow to confirm.  

The issue is that I'm moving to the Houston area (Clear Lake / Kemah) this weekend, so if the MRI confirms that there's something wrong, I will need to find a good ortho in the area to fix me up.  Figured I'd ask for recommendations, rather than make a wild guess as to who's good and who's not.

Thanks in advance!

try memorial Herman home of the ironman institute. All of the orthos are affliated with UT I think
