ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Amy Butte

I tore my left ACL during MLK weekend in 2018. Thanks to Dr. DiFelice and ACL repair, I was doing Pilates in 4 weeks, traveling to a foreign country within 5 weeks, climbing Masada in Israel within 2 months, taking a spin class within 2.5 months, and am nearly 100% within 3 months. After the ACL reconstruction of my right knee in 2006 it took more than twice that time to be Back in the Game! Thank you HSS and Dr. D!
