Premier Orthopedic Surgery in Orange
An ACL tear can be a life-altering injury, compromising knee stability and limiting your ability to participate in sports, work, and everyday activities. Dr. Paul Rothenberg, MD, offers state-of-the-art ACL reconstruction to patients in Orange, providing expert surgical care that helps restore function and confidence in your knee.
Recognizing ACL Injuries
The anterior cruciate ligament is essential for maintaining knee stability during movement. When torn, patients often experience a distinctive “pop,” followed by rapid swelling, pain, and a sensation that the knee may give way. These injuries frequently occur during athletic activities involving sudden stops, jumps, or pivoting movements, though they can happen to anyone.
Advanced Surgical Solutions
Dr. Rothenberg employs cutting-edge arthroscopic techniques for ACL reconstruction in Orange, offering patients the benefits of minimally invasive surgery. Using small incisions and specialized instruments, he replaces the torn ligament with a carefully selected graft material, whether from your own body or a donor source. This precise approach promotes optimal healing while minimizing tissue disruption.
Tailored to Your Needs
Understanding that each patient has unique goals and circumstances, Dr. Rothenberg customizes treatment plans based on your activity level, lifestyle demands, and overall health. His comprehensive approach considers not just the surgical repair but also long-term knee health and injury prevention strategies.
Proven Rehabilitation Protocols
Successful ACL reconstruction requires commitment to rehabilitation. Dr. Rothenberg guides patients through structured recovery phases, collaborating with experienced physical therapists to rebuild strength, flexibility, and neuromuscular control. Most patients achieve full recovery within 9-12 months.
