There are many factors you need to consider before perform ACL.

-Age of person

-The time they can afford to waste on healing

-expectations after surgeries (athletes)

ACL can be done in many ways. Sometimes they can use artificial ligaments that heal very fast but need replacement every few years (up to 5). Other way is to take ligament from different parts of ur leg and use them for the knee (back of the thigh ligaments or pateller ligament) what to chose is a hit or miss and for every person could be different.

Although ACL is very common, only few are specialized in doing it perfectly. You need a doctor that only does this surgery and they more general he is, the more chances he will screw up. Get someone that does this like 10 times a week and def that won't be in Qatar. If ur end goal is to be. Able to sprint 100 meter5 or do it in qatar if ur end goal is to be able to max walk fast or run very slow. I hope this helps

a surgeon at Aspetar in the Aspire Zone, this is an Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital. ACL surgery is one of the commonest surgeries there.

You better go to some place where they specialize the knee procedures because it really hurts to have knee operated at. Your husband will need constant dose or morphine afterwards for a couple of weeks to curb the pain plus, if went wrong this dodgy surgery could cripple him for life so make your choices wisely.

What I would suggest you is to take your husband back to your country and get it done from doctors , who deals with ACL surgeries . As per my experience I had got my ACL and meniscus surgery done back in my country , and its done by a doctor who really specializes in this particular type of surgery .. You got to really reconsider your decision if you are planning to do it in Doha .. My officemate, he got I t done from here in Qatar , and it was nt a success . If It’s a ACL , please do some research , before doing it .. It can be done only once . So my advice please read more about it and don’t do it here in Qatar . Most of the orthopedic surgeons ,will perform the surgery . no doubt , But a per my research and conversation , with a lot of medicos, what I have understood , its little kind of a art, done by some doctors , who are only trained and specialized in this particular ACL surgery. So Just think over it .. PM me if you want some Details
