Given your competitive hockey background, it’s crucial to follow your post-operative instructions and physical therapy regimen closely to ensure a smooth recovery.
Find someone who specializes in this. I have seen this surgery so many times and it fails about 60%.
Look specifically for someone who does PDTR. and who is willing to look at the spine, Core function and pelvic floor as well.
I have seen this in hockey players and we know that long term, this surgery limits to goalie tremendously.
