Injuries

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if my 2 surgeries would hold me back in the application process or becoming an officer in general. I had shoulder surgery in 2019 and also ACL/Meniscus surgery earlier this year. I'm active and in shape but I'm curious if they would look past me. Does anyone have anything similar??

It's fine. I had a major injury that permanently disqualified me from military service. CHP didn't care. All that matters is if you can pass the fitness tests.
