Kalia came to Dr. Mia at MOTI Highland Park just 7weeks post-op ACL repair last year. Her surgery was done at CHLA. She had anticipated entering South Pasadena High School as a Freshman and playing competitive basketball but tore her left ACL that summer. She had begun PT elsewhere but her surgeon was not pleased with her outcomes to that point which brought her parents to find MOTI. By 6 months post-op, Kalia was doing non-contact basketball drills, and at 9 months, she was cleared by both her surgeon and Mia to return to full contact games! This Summer she was able to play in both JV and Varsity summer league games for South Pasadena High School, and also Yonsei Basketball and the Pasadena Bruins. Wishing her an awesome Sophomore year! Special thank you to her parents, Reiko and Scott, for trusting Mia with the recovery of their daughter.
