Meniscus Tear (Torn Meniscus)

Justin D.

I got injured while playing soccer. I had a left lateral meniscus tear. It was a very scary and painful moment. Dr. Marx performed surgery in October 2018, and reassured me that I'll play soccer again. I followed his recommendations, kept my doctor's appointment, and followed the advice of my physical therapist. In March 2019, the morning he cleared me, I was so excited that I played full contact with my team in the afternoon. Dr. Marx and his staff were very courteous and professional. They made me feel comfortable before, during and after the surgery.
