High School Athlete Named MVP After Successful Arthroscopic Surgery

Ty

In March 2010, our 16 year old son Ty was diagnosed with osteochondritis in his right elbow after many years of pitching. He lost his high school sophomore baseball season due to this injury and was referred to Dr. Brian Cole for a second corrective arthroscopic surgery. Ty's one goal was to play high school football in the upcoming fall. After a summer of intense rehabilitation, Dr. Cole gave Ty the go-ahead to play football. Ty has had his best season yet, and was recently chosen as "Player of the Week" by the Daily Herald. Team sports are a huge part of Ty's life and because of Dr. Cole and his team at Rush, Ty can continue to pursue his passion.
