Injuring my knee was extremely traumatic for me – as an aging dancer an event like this can mean an abrupt end to one’s career. From the first, my care at Dartmouth was tantamount to my healing. I was always treated with kindness and patience and I always felt that each person who cared for me believed that I would get well. Ten months after my surgery, I danced full out in my MFA thesis at The American Dance Festival. It was truly a triumphant moment.<br /> - Paula Aarons, ACL and meniscus repair patient

  • Better Than Before Surgery

    Dr. Carr was the right surgeon for me. He described all possible treatment options, talked with me about outcomes and how many ACL surgeries he's performed. I credit Steve Vincente, my physical therapist, in getting me on the road to recovery. His positive energy made all the difference. I am happy to say my knee is not only as good as it was before, it's better. Hannah Kearney / 2010 Olympic Gold Medalist and World Champion freestyle skier

  • No Big Deal

    The most surprising thing about having a complete hip replacement was that it really wasn't a big deal. I'd say all through the journey, from surgery to recovery, you've got to remember it takes some effort. There is some discomfort, but it was well worth it and I won't hesitate again to have my right one done. Ted Davis / Total Hip Patient

  • What Surprised Me the Most

    I didn't know I could do what I can do now and that's what surprised me the most. At my age and with the injuries I had, I thought I was done. Being able to sit straight up is a big deal. Being able to nod my head, twist it side-to-side...that's a really, really big deal. I wasn't able to do those things when I got here. Derek Hampton / Functional Restoration Program graduate

  • Achieving Your Goals

    Now I know I can go out and rip turns and feel awesome and feel completely normal again. I felt like the sports medicine department can relate to you...and help you achieve the goals that you want to get back to, and my goals were to get back into ski racing and back to lacrosse, and I've done that thus far.
