Our sports medicine orthopaedics team performed surgery on Thomas Pouliot after he tore his ACL and meniscus on the Keene State College lacrosse field. Following surgery, he worked tirelessly to strengthen his legs, rebuild his core and, eventually, return to the sport he loves.

“If it was easy, everyone would be good at fixing knee injuries. If it was easy, everyone would recover really fast,” he recalled.

Thomas Pouliot can still hear the loud "pop" as his ACL and meniscus tore after a wrong step on the lacrosse field. But after surgery performed by our sports medicine orthopaedics team, perseverance and hard work, the Keene State College graduate was able to return to the sport he loves.

Looking back, Pouliot's injury taught him the power of mental toughness and helped him appreciate the little things.

“It’s an honor to be able to get up every day and walk,” he said.

What happens when a top-level college athlete almost has their entire sports career taken away in a single moment?

At 20 years old, that's what Thomas Pouliot experienced when one wrong step on the lacrosse field tore his ACL and meniscus. Now 23, the Keene State College graduate has recovered, thanks to his care from our sports medicine team.

Neal Goldenberg, MD, MA, our director of sports medicine, not only gave Pouliot a full knee reconstruction that got him back on the field, but Goldenberg also showed him the importance of hard work, perseverance and mental toughness.

“He never once told me it was impossible,” Pouliot said of returning to lacrosse. “I was really able to see light at the end of the tunnel.”
