Some doctors are really great. But organisation of the process is terrible... It is quite common to wait hour when you arrived for the scheduled appointment

I am currently there. X-ray visit PLN 600 and the doctor is out of the ER and has been gone for an hour. We are waiting with the fracture. You have to be a masochist to fund yourself such adventures.

What you need to know about Knee Ligament Surgery (ACL) in Warsaw

The knee joint is one of the most important weight-bearing joints of the body. A number of ligaments are responsible for its stability. One of them is the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). This ligament is located anteriorly behind the patellar ligament. It joins the femur (thigh bone) with the tibia (shin bone). It is so named because it is placed diagonally. It is responsible for forward movement and rotation of tibia over the femur.

ACL is among the most commonly damaged ligaments due to falls, accidents, automobile injuries, etc. It may also get injured during sports such as football, basketball, etc. These sports can be the cause of a tear of Ligament fibers, which can be especially painful and impairing of the joint movement. Surgical treatment is available for knee ligament injury. The procedure is performed by certified orthopedic surgeons in specialized medical facilities and clinics.

What's the Recovery Time for Knee Ligament Surgery (ACL) Procedures in Warsaw?

A full recovery can take between 6-9 months, during which time, no contact sport should be played. It can extend to a year depending upon various factors.
