At 17, Ayoki went up for a hit during a volleyball tournament and felt a pop as she landed. An MRI confirmed what she feared — a torn ACL. Referred to Emory Healthcare by a teammate’s family, she put her trust in the nationally ranked experts at Emory Orthopaedics & Spine Center.

“Dr. John Xerogeanes understood my injury and how it affects my role as a middle blocker. I feel blessed to have my doctor and my physical therapist,” she says.

After ACL and meniscus surgery, Ayoki spent nine months rebuilding her strength and confidence. “During recovery, I realized how much I truly loved volleyball. I can’t wait to get back on the court.”

To celebrate her progress, she delivered the first serve at a LOVB match in Atlanta.

Colorectal cancer is on the rise among younger adults, and it often shows up unexpectedly. Early warning signs are easy to dismiss, screenings are delayed and treatment can be pushed back.

The good news? Colorectal cancer is often preventable and highly treatable when caught early. Pay attention to your body, recognize the symptoms and get screened starting at 45, or sooner if you’re at higher risk.
