ACL AND MENISCUS HEALING WITHOUT SURGERY

In-Person and Online Workshops for Clinicans

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are an extremely common and costly injury in general and sporting populations. Almost routinely, patients are offered surgery to return to high-level activity and pivoting sports. This concept, as well as the dire view of a patient or athlete who has suffered an ACL tear has been widely propagated in mass media, and has affected populations both amateur and professional. Current best research challenges these ingrained paradigms.

These courses, taught by Dr Kieran Richardson (FACP), will give clinicians the confidence to assess for and develop a comprehensive non-surgical management program for a patient presenting post ACL injury.
