ACL Revision Surgery?


This is my 5th surgery on this knee most recent Microfracture Feb 2007. Having revision ACL done June 2007. Is my recovery time longer? I have read it can be anywhere from 3 -4 months or longer. I have a very physical job, bending, lifting, climbing stairs. Has anyone had the surgery and when did you start P.T. I have also read that does not start right away like my last ACL surgery? Thanks for all your help.

The price of knee surgery is very low in India as compared to USA, UK and Canada. My cousin also got her hip replacement surgery in India through the forerunners healthcare .She is more than very happy with the results. She is totally pain free now. She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.


Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines. I have read a lot of their patient stories also. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as all joint surgery is not covered by insurance in USA or by NHS in the UK. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

Hope this helps.

I can understand your apprehension but really, you should be asking the surgeon who will be doing the procedure all your questions. Would you fully believe the input you get from this site?
