Jan I. Gillquist was a pioneer in the fields of knee surgery and sports medicine and is well-known for his dedication to the scientific method, particularly the systematic approach to the entire chain of treatment of knee injuries: a correct diagnosis and pre-operative assessment, surgery and post-operative rehabilitation, and the treatment of ACL injuries without surgery and with rehabilitation alone. According to Prof. Gillquist, “Everything was possible and nothing impossible to question.” His passion was good science, correct science, and he was never afraid of sharp and critical questions; everything should be questioned and systematically studied.
