Combining these two interests has naturally made Dr. Mall a leader in the treatment of osteochondritis dissecans, pediatric and adolescent ACL tears, knee injuries, shoulder and elbow injuries, and ankle injuries.
Also, during his training, he assisted in caring for the St. Louis Rams, St. Louis Blues, Chicago Bulls, and Chicago White Sox amongst other collegiate, developmental league, and high school sports teams.
