Hope Hampton has helped me through painful injuries to my knees and shoulders.
In each case, I had serious concern that even surgery couldn't restore full use.
She is an outstanding physical therapist that knows her limits and gets results.
As an aging amateur athlete, I've had a number of maladies that have been treated by P.T.'s over the years.
I've had the good fortune to be treated by some outstanding therapists, often clinic directors.
As a technician, Hope is equal to the best the profession has to offer.
There is one opinion I'll offer about Hope that distinguishes her from other medical professionals.
She has innate ability that cannot be explained or trained.
When it comes to treating a patient, Hope is equally artisan and technician.
I think of her as a healer. Maybe I should refer to her as virtuoso too?
