Do not take me to Novant Hwy.17 in Bolivia for unmentionable reasons. With that said, where is the closest reputable ER? We will take you to Dosher Memorial Hospital, they are good. I hesitated, but what choices did I have. I am very critical about the different facilities, after all, a terrified patient and family members are depending on the good care and everyone's Knowledge, competence, professionalism, bedside manners, and hospital septic condition let alone diet. One's life depends on the hospital team. The ER Doctor on duty was extremely busy (as expected in ER). Nurses and aides tried to get all my vital signs blood test, EKG, Cat Scan and information.

Pre-shoulder surgery I went to Carolina Strong PT in hopes of avoiding surgery. Kalen was my…read moretherapist. She was excellent. Very knowledgable, positive and a great communicator, but it turned out I needed surgery. After shoulder surgery I went back to Carolina Strong for three months of physical therapy. I cannot recommend them more highly. Darrelle was my therapist. She is knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. Each visit we set realistic goals that were challenging but attainable. Sometimes progress seemed so slow to me, but I trusted her, did what she told me (and not more) and slowly but surely my range of motion and strength returned. I can honestly say that I didn't want our sessions to come to an end. I would highly recommend Kalen, Darrelle and Carolina Strong PT. Rob B.

They have a bathroom and filtered water, safe to leave things in cubbies, blocks and bolsters and even some mats if you need to borrow one. Their schedule is varied throughout the week, including Hatha, sculpt, Hot vinyasa, slow flow and vinyasa. A highlight is they also have a physcial therapist and massage therapist within reach, so you can connect to either of those to help build your spiritual/emotional/mental health as well as physical. I'm excited to continue to come here and looking forward to the newest addition of their HOT style classes, where they use infrared heaters.

Dr. Leighton is, what I would label as a perfectionist, driven by his desire to enable his patients to achieve the best outcome possible. He recently performed a total knee replacement for myself, and while in my early recovery, my wife fell and she needed surgical repair of her wrist. Dr. Leighton was so kind to prompt the hospital to qickly get her in for a CT and worked her into his next day surgical schedule. I don't think you can do any better than Dr. Leighton for surgical repair or replacement of a failed joint or other orthopedic need. His staff are professional, courteous and helpful in caring for the patients needs.
