Dr. Konsens specializes in reconstructive surgery of the knee and sports medicine.
After 20 years and tens of thousands of cases, Dr. Kosens says he still critically examines every single case to see if there's anything he could have done better. He said every patient and every problem is different, and he treats each situation uniquely.
For Dr. Konsens, sports medicine is a natural fit. In 1980, he was the Ivy League long jump champion and his brother was an All-American track star. Find out which famous Olympian was his brother's college teammate.
Now Dr. Konsens helps the elite athletes of the Orlando Magic, the University of Central Florida and Rollins College perform at their best.
Also, Dr. Konsens reveals how he almost ended up a dentist and what personal characteristic steered him away from that career.
Plus, find out why he thinks working for Florida's largest and oldest orthopaedic group has made him a better, more well-trained doctor.
