I had ACL reconstruction with a patellar graft and felt well supported from start to finish. Dr. McAdams was kind, patient, and honest whenever I had concerns.
I came back for my 6-week in-person follow-up and I’m doing well, walking almost normally thanks to the care plan and the PT he recommended. Really appreciate the attention and support throughout recovery. Highly recommend, especially if you want to return to an active lifestyle.
I am a 65-year-old woman, but I am not retired… One would assume but that is just not my scenario
I am impressed that he is willing to consider what my expectations of a good result might be
