ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Patient image of: Ryan Reynolds

I was only 19 when I tore my ACL in my right knee while playing soccer at my college. While I feared that I would never return to sports after this traumatic injury, Dr. DiFelice and his team helped fix me and provide a path to returning to my previous competition. By conserving as much of my ACL as possible and reconstructing the rest, my knee feels as though it was never operated on. Now 1 year post-surgery, I am finally able to return to the sports that I love all thanks to Dr. DiFelice and Hospital for Special Surgery.
