We cannot deny the fact that golf is one of the hottest sports out there for almost all of our patients of any age or athletic ability. That's why it is super disappointing for people when an injury hits, and they are not able to play. Some people may think that returning is so easy, but we need to make sure that our athletes are not only able to athletically, but safely as well. Jamie Osmak's passion is golf, so we are really lucky to have his insight on not only how to assess a golfer, but what we need to make sure we are doing to return them to their sport safely and effectively. Great episode to round out this year so Let's Gooooo!!!!!!

ACL rehab continues to make progressions as the years go on. We think that we have a good grasp on the rehab, and what it takes to return to sport, but do we really. Neurocognitive therapy and visual cognition is something that we may not be spending a lot of time on, but as evidence continues to grow it may be something that we have taken for granted when rehabbing and testing a ACL patient. This 2 part episode is a conversation with Dr. Merideth Chaput from the University of Central Florida and her work is focused on the Neurocognitive aspect of rehab with ACL patients. Are we really doing enough in this aspect to bring the patinet back to the level of sport that they should be at? This is a very informative episode that all of you will enjoy
