Kevin Robert Stone, born on 4 June 1955, is an American physician and orthopedic surgeon based in San Francisco, where he founded The Stone Clinic and the Stone Research Foundation for Sports Medicine and Arthritis. His clinical work centers on repairing and replacing the meniscus, articular cartilage and ligaments so that patients can stay active, and he treats patients who travel from many countries for biologic joint and tissue repair. He is credited with the Collagen Meniscus Implant, a tissue-engineering template for re-growing knee cartilage, with the Articular Cartilage Paste Grafting procedure he developed in 1991, and with a three-tunnel technique for meniscus transplantation. He also holds more than fifty United States patents, and his foundation concentrates on arthritis research and on speeding the return of athletes to sport.
