ACL Tear (Torn ACL)

Mekai Lindsey

I tore my ACL playing basketball in June 2023 and was not able to play my senior year because I had surgery in July 2023. We chose Dr. Cordasco and his team at HSS because of their care, concern, respect, professionalism and expertise. We were told to anticipate a return to sport between 6-9 months and sure enough I was cleared to play 2 weeks before the 9 month mark! This is allowing me to play AAU this season in order to gain some exposure that I was not able to get my senior year. I look forward to playing at the collegiate level and have many, many thanks to give to Dr. Cordasco and his team at HSS!
