Dr. Gross did an incredible job on my ruptured Achilles. My tear was high and both my GP and Dr. Gross explained to me that I was a prime candidate to heal without surgery (using boot/cast only to heal). That said Dr. Gross is an exceptional listener and after hearing how active and competitive I was he recommended the surgical route for my recovery. I was at a fast jog (6mph) at the 3 month mark and jumping and running at month 4. Still have some recovery work to do for strengthening my leg before I can go full tilt with sports but I am well ahead of the curve. 100% have the confidence that I can resume sports activities come this spring. Thanks Dr. Gross. 5 Stars and 100% recommended!
