Patella Pain

Dr. Ackermann2024-05-30T15:13:09+02:00
By Dr. Ackermann

I had a wonderful opportunity recently to be amongst some of the leading surgeons world wide at this 3 day knee congress in Lyon, focusing on Patella pain, instability, degeneration and knee replacement. This event has gathered surgeons specialising in sport and arthritis as well as all other health professionals who come across Patellofemoral pathologies in their field.

“The patella has often been pushed into the background, this congress will be the opportunity to bring it into the limelight, not as a third compartment but as the central part of the knee”.

I’m looking forward to sharing this knowledge and expertise with my patients.
