Milo Hoffman’s story, in their own words

I've been a soccer player my entire life. On the first day of preseason training in August of 2019, I suffered a gruesome fracture of my left femur. It required emergency surgery and the insertion of a plate with nine screws.

I was in the hospital for four days and three nights. Dr. Green and the entire staff at HSS made us feel as easy as possible given the difficult situation. I spent months with Yukiko doing PT and with their help and the work I put into it, I'm now back on the field playing at a high level.
