Narrative

The employee was climbing down a ladder when he got to the bottom and turned he felt a pop in his knee. Took him to the doctor and they thought he sprained it. After awhile it did not get better so we had a MRI down which concluded he had a tear in the meniscus on 6/10/15 which will required surgery.
