  • Exclusive Interview: Andy Williams, Knee Surgeon to the Stars, Maps out Road Back for Virgil Van Dijk
    NEWS WEBSITE OF THE YEAR My Feed Coronavirus News Politics Sport Business Money Opinion Tech Life Style Travel See all Sport Exclusive interview: Andy Williams, knee surgeon to the stars, maps out road back for Virgil van Dijk Orthopaedic consultant has saved the careers of countless sportspeople including Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Danny Ings and Jonny May By Jason Burt, CHIEF FOOTBALL CORRESPONDENT 20 October 2020 • 1:28pm 9 If Virgil van Dijk is seeking solace as he confronts the long, painful path to recovery from his serious knee ligament injury, Andy Williams is probably the man to provide it. Williams is regarded as the world’s foremost surgeon when it comes to ACL and knee injuries and there is not a professional footballer who has not heard of him. The 56-year- old has saved countless careers including Van Dijk's current and former team-mates at Liverpool - Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Danny Ings - Newcastle's new £20 million signing Callum Wilson, whom he operated on four times, and England rugby wing Jonny May. It remains to be seen whether Williams will be involved in Van Dijk's recovery, but whilst this interview took place before the Dutchman's ill-fated collision with Jordan Pickford at Everton last Saturday, his words provide a blueprint on how to manage a recovery. ADVERTISING Trust is fundamental to the relationship between patient and doctor, and Williams has earned it from his clients - so much so that everyone mentioned by him in our interview at the Fortius Clinic where he works in central London gave consent for their cases to be discussed.
