Dr. Kevin Murphy of SE Orthapedics Specialists expressed disgust at operating on a high ankle sprain in order to make a player available this quickly. He said it was atypical treatment and irresponsible of the medical staff. He stated that while the procedure improved stability, thereby allowing the player to perform, the player is in no way healed and is highly vulnerable to reinjury and permanent damage. He indicated that recovery from this injury is a matter of months and not weeks if proper medical protocol is followed.
So he basically accused our medical staff of malpractice on radio. Someone might want to relay this information.
Dr murphy scoped my knee almost 20 weeks ago... I'm unquestionably worse off than before the procedure. I don't know how many crimson tide athletes he's seen, but this one ain't very impressed. I'm actually quite envious of tua's recovery.

despite not being entirely enthused about how my knee has turned out, he's very highly recommended by pretty much everyone i talked to in the physical therapy field in the 904. i have no doubt he knows his trade, but sprinkle in some dan hicken and i'm totally not listening to him on this at all

Some docs used to think blood letting via leeches and other means was the proper protocol as well for a variety of ailments

According to the review attributed to Colin Peek, he went to him while playing at Alabama. Would be interesting to know if Peek was refered to him by our staff or if Peek sought treatment from him instead of the team doctors at the time, and why.

I totally get what this doctor was saying, which I interpret to be more philosophical about doing experimental surgery on amateur athletes. Surgery is a very aggressive posture on an injury that heals well with no treatment given time. There's a lot of reasonable orthopedists that would be reluctant to endorse it for this injury in a college athlete, whereas they'd be more amenable to doing it on a professional.

Interesting... i do think collin has ties to the greater jax area. I'm 95% sure he played soccer with my younger brother at around 10-12 years old.
