Fantastic Result!

Dr LaPrade successfully repaired my fully torn ACL and torn meniscus a little over 10 years ago following a ski crash. Seeing that i was an older adult, he went with a cadaver donor ligament. I had little discomfort following the procedure and was up and about the next day. I was back skiing cautiously just 6 months post op! Oops. Doc LaPrade told me to wait 8. My bad, but it was all was good!! Ten years later I'm still skiing hard, always wearing my Donjoy brace, as well as other activities with no discomfort! I'm very grateful to Dr LaPrade for restoring my knee

The Best of the Best!

I can't say enough good things about Dr. LaPrade. His dedication to excellence and his passion for creating the best outcomes for patients is evident in everything he does. I had a double-bundle PCL reconstruction using autografts in AUG '18. It's 6 months later, and I'm progressing well. My stress x-rays indicate a successful surgery, and I'm able to cycle and jog (under controlled circumstances) again. I feel like Dr. LaPrade's expertise has given me the opportunity to return to my active lifestyle with confidence in my knee and surrounding muscles. I am grateful to him, his staff, and the highly skilled PT's at Howard Head for getting me back on my feet and doing the things I love. Thank you!

Dr. LaPrade is amazing

I've had three knee surgeries with Dr. LaPrade, two of which were highly complex reconstructive surgeries. He's amazing! Besides being one of the best knee surgeons in the country, he's really compassionate. There are jerseys hung up all over the walls from famous athletes that he's operated on, and he's the knee surgeon for the Olympic ski team, and yet he never treated me as less important than them even though I'm only fifteen and have no Olympic prospects. Also, everyone at Steadman clinic is really great, and so are all the physical therapists at Howard Head. If you have surgery with Dr. LaPrade, expect amazing care from the entire team. I'm so grateful that I was able to have my surgeries with Dr. LaPrade! He did an excellent job, and now my surgical knee is stronger and more flexible than my other one. Thank you!
