She shares how she blended evidence, technology, surgical constraints and clinical reasoning to guide her ultimate return-to-sport decision.If you’re a physio, S&C coach or clinician navigating post-op knees, complex cases or high-performance environments, this conversation on practical problem-solving and data-informed rehab is for you.
