Torn Patellar Tendon

Justin Blake

In April 2018, Justin tore his patellar tendon while playing basketball. The next day, a Saturday, he contacted orthopaedic surgeons in the DC area. He didn’t get many replies over the weekend, except when he messaged Dr. Faucett through his website. Dr. Faucett called him back and a few days later performed a patellar tendon reconstruction on Justin. “I just can’t thank him enough. I found it ironic that a doctor who had 5 star ratings and is innovative in their surgical approach gets back to patients during the weekends and was available to me in my time of need. Again, I can’t thank him enough for his help and how he fit me into his schedule without any hesitations. It’s refreshing to me that he cared.” Thank you for sharing your story Justin!
