I'm was here after having rotator cuff (RC) surgery on my left shoulder performed by Dr Jeffrey Watson, OMG-Tampa, FL. Typically recovery takes about 6-weeks until you can really start the hard work. I started my post-op rehab at Cora, Largo the second week after surgery, following verified insurance and primary care referral. I've continued my PT at Cora for the better part of six months trying to keep a once a week appointment.
I too, thought the place was a bit cluttered at first but quickly determined the work was more important than aesthetics. Therapists are knowledgeable and attentive. My first visit was cautionary of course then my exercises progressed, methodically building upon previous PT sessions. I think you can work as hard as you want for your hour appointment however, truly under PT supervision to not over do it!
I'm happy with the therapists at CORA Largo, all the people there. The coffee isn't bad either. Since my start, I've almost attained majority of measurable movement in my shoulder. I'm slowly getting back to the gym so I can lift, more importantly to swing a golf club. I know it's a long road to work my shoulder the rest of my life. You have to show up for your appointment to measure success and I've done that maybe missing one appointment. I played college football incurring several knee injuries, high-ankle sprain, been injured parachuting in the military. I know a little about recovery and you can do plenty of rehab exercises here, pure and simple. There's good, knowledgeable people at Cora Largo to help you along your way back plus some added homework! Mickey's your sports talk guy, serious and matter of fact, he's been around for a while, baseball and hockey belongs to Debbie, pain-maker moniker belongs to Brian-in a good way!
The location for Cora probably wasn't more than 10-minutes from my home, traffic or parking wasn't a problem. Signing in for your appointment at the front desk my seem a little congested at times, stepping to the side provides easy access to let the hard-chargers through! You can square up on the way out with Kayleen the receptionist, so get on with your work if you're late. She's great finding your ideal time to work within your schedule. She will also call to let you know there's an open spot due to someone cancelling an appointment.
Cora Largo is not a 4/5-star spa by any means nor a division one facility so don't expect it. It's a simple setup with just about everything you need. The work area is maybe a little restricted but they try and manage the clients with dedicated appointment scheduling. If you want to work to a satisfactory/measurable level of joint mobility/recovery you can do it here at Cora Largo, good luck! read more
