I had to get ACL reconstruction of my knee back in August 2016 after I tore it and my meniscus skiing and I haven't had a single problem with my since. I returned to competitive sport non contact 1 year post-op and didn't have a single issue than and returned to competitive sports after 2 years post-op just to make sure it was fully good. My graft after almost 7 years is still as solid and as strong as it first was. He used my hamstring in the same leg for the graft and shaved out the shredded part of my meniscus. Both my physiotherapists then and now think the integrity of my graft is amazing. No pain at all anymore even with my meniscus and I barely had any pain for the first couple months post-op. The staff out in Banff and him are lovely to be around, he was great with my parents especially my Mom who has lots of anxiety about surgeries. Great nurses and anesthesiologist. My ROM in my leg is even better than it was before and they had me walking around immediately. My graft has held up with 4 years of competitive rugby as well. I recently tore my other ACL in my other knee playing rugby and if I need surgery I am definitely going to go back to him. Would recommend for ACL reconstruction for sure!
