Whether you’re an elite athlete or a sports enthusiast, Orthopro provides the expert care you need to recover quickly and safely.
What is ACL surgery.
The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) plays a crucial role in stabilizing the knee, especially in high-impact sports such as football, basketball, and skiing.
Common ACL Injury Mechanism: ACL tears are common in athletes and occur due to twisting movements, sudden stops, or changes in direction.
Precise Diagnosis: At Orthopro Clinic, we use advanced MRI technology with specialized ACL sequences for early and accurate diagnosis, ensuring the most effective treatment plan for your injury.
Types of ACL Injuries Treated at Orthopro Clinic
- ACL Strain: A mild overstretch of the ligament.
- Partial Tear: The ligament is partially torn but retains some stability.
- Complete Tear: The ACL is completely torn, leading to knee instability.
At Orthopro Clinic, each injury is evaluated in-depth, and a customized ACL treatment plan is developed based on your age, activity level, and sport-specific needs.

Non-Operative
ACL Treatment for Athletes
For partial ACL tears or strains, non-operative treatment may be the best option. At Orthopro, our ACL Rehabilitation Program focuses on restoring knee function and preventing re-injury with:
- Targeted muscle strengthening to improve control.
- Neuromuscular training for enhanced stability.
- Injury prevention techniques for long-term recovery.
Our physiotherapy team, experienced in treating elite athletes, tailors each rehab plan to ensure you regain full functionality and reduce future injury risks.
Advanced
ACL Surgery
ACL Repair for Partial Tears
For partial ACL tears, our skilled surgeons offer minimally invasive ACL repair, stitching the ligament back into its original insertion. This technique, performed with keyhole incisions, is available at Orthopro Clinic, one of the few centers in Dubai offering this innovative treatment.
Benefits: Faster recovery, minimal scarring, and the possibility of preserving your natural ACL.


ACL Reconstruction for Complete Tears
For complete ACL tears, ACL reconstruction is the most effective solution. Our surgeons use autografts, tissue taken from your own body, to replace the damaged ACL, ensuring long-term knee stability.
Commonly Used Grafts:
Hamstring Graft: Strong and suitable for most patients.
Bone-Patellar-Tendon-Bone Graft: Ideal for high-performance athletes due to its strength.
Quadriceps Graft: Perfect for patients with previous ACL injuries or specific sports requirements.
Our team will help you choose the best graft based on your sport and recovery goals.
Revision ACL Surgery
For patients with failed ACL surgery or acl re-rupture, our knee surgeons provide single stage revision reconstruction using with very high satisfaction and excellent return to sport numbers.


Extra-Articular Tenodesis (ALL Reconstruction)
In selected cases, Orthopro surgeons perform extra-articular tenodesis alongside ACL reconstruction to enhance stability, particularly for athletes engaged in pivot-heavy sports. This added procedure reduces the risk of re-injury and is highly recommended for professional athletes.

Meniscus Surgery
Vital for Knee Health
ACL injuries often come with meniscus tears, critical for knee function. At Orthopro Clinic, our surgeons prioritize meniscus preservation through repair techniques that ensure long-term joint health. Unlike some surgeons who may trim the torn meniscus, we aim to save as much of the meniscus as possible, which is crucial for professional athletes.
Recovery Milestones

Our comprehensive ACL rehab program, led by sports injury physiotherapists, ensures a safe and fast recovery that gets you back to your sporting career at full strength.
- 6 Weeks: Return to normal walking.
- 3 Months: Begin jogging.
- 4 Months: Transition to running.
- 6 Months: Start sport-specific training.
- 9-12 Months: Return to competitive sports.

I can not speak highly enough of this clinic. The staff, atmosphere, and support throughout my journey so far have been brilliant. I had ACL surgery with Dr Ashish Soni (Amazing), Physio with Barry O’Donnell (Amazing), and nurse support with Angeline Calog (Fabulous). I honestly would recommend them to anyone. If you are looking for quality, reassurance, high standards, and support, Ortho Pro clinic has been excellent for me.

My son (10 years old) had an arthroscopy for meniscus repair by Dr. Ashish Soni. Since the first visit, Doctor Ashish was able to explain everything to my son in a simple way, answering all his questions and curiosities and making him feel comfortable about it. The procedure went perfectly well, everything was smooth and well-planned. Dr. Soni is a very skilled surgeon and a caring and careful person. Now my son he is having his physiotherapy sessions with Carol. She is wonderful and after only 3 weeks, he is able to walk properly, bend and straighten his knee without pain. All the staff is warm and welcome. we couldn’t choose a better surgeon and clinic for our little boy. we are more than happy and thankful.

I would say Ashish Soni is one of the best orthopaedic doctors in Dubai. He is very knowledgeable and fixed my knee, and I am able to play Cricket and Table tennis as if I had a new knee. The ACL and Meniscus were fixed so smartly with proper guidance. Thanks to him and his team!
