              Dr. Cosgarea listened to my concerns and wishes. He did not immediately push me to surgery for a torn ACL and 4 months after the accident, I am able to perform daily activities without the surgery. He also informed me that I would need to be careful with the injured knee and, if future issues arise, to contact him. He seems to be a very caring and supportive doctor.
