ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Filip De Wandel

I feel very lucky to have been directed to Dr. Carr by Dr. Sama, the primary equestrian doctor in Wellington. I needed new ACL and MCL and they said I would be out for six months, which was spot on. I got back on the horse after 4 or 5 months and was back competing at 6 months. I think they did very good job. But the recovery and building the muscle back takes time.

Thank you Dr. James Carr at HSS!
