I guess I swing both ways...I know where my monkey is going
A PT needs to get a visual of how you walk, at what point you are getting pain, etc. Sometimes the way a person walks can greatly contribute to their knee issues (pronation, supination, etc.).

Also, when you are getting rehab exercises, the PT will want to make sure you have good form when doing them. They will notice subtle movements that could potentially create more problems for you that other people may not notice (especially you).

I seem to be in a perpetual state of rehab, and I have found that not everything works the same way for every "body". Many of the rehab exercises my PT gave me for my knee rehab actually made my knee worse, and she was quite surprised. But we kept at it, and eventually, we got a good set of rehab exercises that really worked well for me. I still do them.

IMHO, I think it's better if you see a PT first. But there are some experts on the board who know a lot more than I do :)
