    season 3, episode 1: Al Getgood, the evolution of sports knee surgery

    We’re back. And we’ve missed you. After a long hiatus, the See One / Do One podcast returns with a bang—and who better to kick things off than one of the biggest names in knee surgery: Al Getgood. Recorded in 2022 but released for the first time now ( a long story), this conversation captures Al just before he made another major leap—he was at the Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic in Ontario when we recorded this episode, he is now Chief of Surgery at Aspetar in Doha, Qatar.  We’ve updated the intro to reflect this move, but the content remains as compelling and relevant as ever. From the frosty winters of Canada to the blistering heat of the Marathon des Sables, Al’s journey is nothing short of legendary. In this wide-ranging chat, Kash and Pete dive into: The STABILITY trial that revolutionized ACL reconstructionPersonalised approaches to ACL graft choice and lateral augmentationThe ongoing challenges in cartilage restorationThe promise (and pitfalls) of orthobiologicsThe mental resilience it takes to run 250km across the Sahara—and thrive in elite-level orthopaedicsAl Getgood is sharp, insightful, and annoyingly likeable. Whether you’re a fellow knee surgeon, a trainee, or just fascinated by the elite world of sports surgery, this episode is packed with wisdom, humility, and unexpected laughs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This episode is proudly supported by our inaugural sponsors, Lavender Medical — a UK-based, family-owned distributor of orthopaedic implants with over 15 years of experience.
