ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Ami Kantawala

I was taken out by an assistive skier on a sit ski in Vermont about three years ago. I tore my ACL and MCL. Dr. Pearle was highly recommended by a friend and I consulted him right away. Within a week I had an MRI etc done and my surgery was scheduled. His bedside manner with patients, his gentle approach in explaining the surgery and recovery process along with hearing the patients needs were remarkable. It took me a long time to recover and I slowly got back on skis over the past two years and couldn’t be happier with a stronger ACL! His assistant Nikki and his entire staff are a solid team who give you the confidence courage and game to get Back in the Game!
