It’s incredible how well I recovered and how flexible I was after surgery. The pain was almost non-existent. At Shelbourne Knee Center, in four months you can be back to a competitive level of athletics.

Dr. Benner and the staff at Shelbourne Knee Center know what they’re doing. Dr. Benner was honest with me, and he’s easy to talk to. I woke up after surgery and everything was fine. The job Dr. Benner did was remarkable. I did not need to take a single painkiller.

I read everything that I could find about Dr. Shelbourne. His research-backed track record with primary and revision ACL and a protocol that has gotten many professional athletes back to playing at professional levels, was very appealing. I was reassured by the fact that Dr. Shelbourne has operated on more than ACL 7,000 patients, with a focus on getting his patients back to their pre-injury levels of fitness.

What Dr. Shelbourne said was much more optimistic than what I found online. After you visit his clinic and learn of his approach, you realize that this optimism is rooted in experience, research, and a carefully developed protocol.

After surgery, for the first time in two years, I was able to stop obsessing over my knee. I am thankful to Dr. Shelbourne and my physical therapist, Alana, for working with me and on me.

About three years after completing the Knee Rehabilitation Program for OA, Dr. Rademacher is doing great. I have a little pain in my knee, but I can walk without a limp, play 18 holes of golf, and go up and down stairs with no trouble,” he says. “I don’t take any medications.

As soon as Dr. Shelbourne told me how long he’d been doing this, I trusted that he could fix my knee. Dr. Shelbourne was 100% right about how things would go and the timeframe. Trust Shelbourne Knee Center and do exactly what they tell you. They know what they’re talking about!

My experience has been 100% better, with a faster and easier recovery than other people I know who tore their ACLs.

I live about 65 miles from Shelbourne Knee Center. I was disappointed that I did not have that level of care locally but didn’t mind traveling to Indianapolis. I would recommend Shelbourne Knee Center to anybody.

Dr. Shelbourne is really knowledgeable, and the physical therapists are awesome. They’ve been doing the same thing for a long time and are very good at it.

Dr. Shelbourne laid out his proven process. He was very confident and his return to sport rate is very high. I knew that we had made a good decision.

My knee doctor was one of the doctors they recommended for Landen. But for Landen, I wanted a doctor who focused on young athletes and had extensive ACL experience. Dr. Shelbourne made my son feel comfortable and explained his approach to getting Landen back on the field as fast as possible.

Jessica was devastated to find out she had an ACL tear. She worked so hard to make a starting role. I was assuming that, given Dr. Shelbourne’s reputation, he was pretty much booked solid. But we were able to get in. When Jessica heard Dr. Shelbourne’s group had success getting people back in 4–6 months, she was very happy. Dr. Shelbourne really listened to what Jessica wanted and to her concerns. He was talking about the same things we wanted to happen. It’s scary having a child with an ACL injury. I saw friends in school years ago with ACL tears who had big scars and long recovery periods. Having somebody like Dr. Shelbourne who’s focused on one thing and has a solution he can prove is very reassuring.

Dr. Shelbourne showed us the research to back every statement he made. I was swimming competitively again six weeks after surgery.
