Default Need advice from knowledgeable yorkie owners

I have a 15.5 week old yorkie who I've had for 3 weeks now and I need some advice. Maybe I'm overreacting but I've been so worried about this and am hoping for reassurance. I took Zoe to the vet for the 1st time yesterday (since she came to live with us). I have never met the vet before. Anyways, I asked her if she could check for luxating patella's and callapsing trachea. She took Zoe into another room to check her and came out and said that she palpitated her throat and that seemed fine and that she thought her left leg MIGHT have a slight luxating patella. Just might. Now I'm really worried. Should I take her to another vet? Is there a way they can x-ray to see if there is a problem? I've also read conflicting info about the mild luxating patella's. Can anyone help??? Should I be worried?
