    Good orthopaedic?

    So if you have to get your knee done, who would you have do a total knee and why?

    as in ACL reconstruction or total knee replacement?

    In CO the most well known ortho office would be the Staedman-Hawkin Clinic. Not sure where thatis in relation to you but that would be a start. I'm sure some CO mags could fill in some gaps with other orthos in the area.

    Question #1: ACL or TKA? Question #2: where would the surgeon need to be located?

    Steadman is kinda washed up... he's an old guy now. I did some heavy research and found the US Ski team doctor (Cooley) located in Park City. I've done both knees (ACL & MCL) and the knee he did the recovery was 50% faster.
