ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Patient image of: Richard Cohen

During a hockey game I suffered a torn meniscus & a partial ACL tear. I saw two doctors that said I would never be able to skate again. Then I saw Dr. Dines & he said with surgery I would be able to get Back in the Game. He performed the operation & sure enough I’m back playing today thanks to Dr Dines! Can’t thank him enough!
