The Steadman Clinic

Is ACL surgery the right choice for you? If knee instability, pain, and swelling persist, especially in athletes, ACL reconstruction is often necessary. The procedure involves removing the damaged ligament and replacing it with a graft, typically from the patient’s own tissue for better healing. Dr. Millett’s method prioritizes minimally invasive techniques, ensuring a faster recovery time. With proper post-surgery physical therapy, athletes can get back to doing what they love. https://medilink.us/kdk5 #ACLInjury #SurgicalSolutions #KneeRecovery #OrthopedicCare #KneeSurgeon
