My surgeon is the Chief of Orthopedic Foot and Aankle Surgery in one of the top ten hospitals in the country. He said, this was one of the worst crushed heels he had ever seen. He said that after he scheduled a two-hour surgery, and it ran something over four hours. There were serious questions as to how well I'd be able to get around, and most likely would require a cane forever. I'm 79 years old, and on Medicare. I began my physical therapy in February 2023. In working with Evolution Physical Therapy and more specifically Nolan Rufa, I went from a state of crutches and limping into their facility, to now walking pretty well and have achieved about 70% of normal. Together, we established and achieved all the goals we set. My current goal is to achieve complete stability. At that time, I expect to be at 80% of normal, at which point it may be time to declare victory. So far, I've had about 120 sessions, some more grueling and painful than others. Nolan was very patient with me as I'm a type A and not particularly easy to get along with, especially in a difficult situation like this one. Over the past 21 months I've had an opportunity to observe others receive physical therapy. Of the four or five therapists I observed on a regular basis, they all seem to have the same desire and commitment to their patients. I'm sure the small size of the facility, personal one-on-one therapy and a good selection of personnel are responsible for my success. Boy did I get Lucky, no cane. Thanks Nolan.

An MRI revealed a torn hip labrum, troublesome issues to say the least for someone who likes to play tennis 4-5x/week during the summer. I started seeing Sarah at The Posture People weekly over a 6-8 week period and she worked on creating some space through manual manipulation around the hip joint, showed me numerous exercises which i took home and worked on between appointments. As the season progressed, i went from having limited mobility and at risk of season-ending injury if I went down the wrong way on court (yes, rest was advised) to incredible improvement over the course of the summer. Sarah made me far more aware of my core and small exercises i could do to alleviate stiffness from sitting too long to stretches I could do at any time. I have gone back periodically for maintenance purposes and highly recommend the work that Sarah and her colleagues do at The Posture People.

My lead therapist is Alexander Torres who is an exceptionally bright and very kind young man. My parents were both physicians and they taught me a lot about medical care, and Alex possesses so many of the crucial qualities a great doctor should have, which makes him an outstanding example of the BEST in his work. INNOVATIVE is truly blessed to have him as therapist, leader and a friend on their wonderful team. Another therapist, Nick Guarcello, an associate with Alex, has also worked hard to improve my condition and his medical knowledge and kind, cheerful personality have been essential in my progress. Also, Andrew DeFranco, an aide to Alex is an energetic, intelligent young man who has been available and has done a great job working on my issues. And last but not least, Christine, the sweet, very helpful receptionist is a great, very pretty asset to the image of your company. I am moving to Austin, Texas tomorrow which is a difficult change, but necessary for me, and I will truly miss INNOVATIVE and I just had to thank you and your team for your attention, expertise and medical wisdom and if I return to this area some day, I will be there right away. Best of luck, great success, and much love to you and your outstanding company and its members.

But we do have control of how we treat it. I made a great decision with Professional Physical Therapy (PPT). Gea is a strong, poised, and capable therapist. She is quite sensitive to the nuances of the varying needs of her patients and responds with plans of acton suited to each person and the unique state they're in. She's done this with me and a pinched nerve I have in my neck with much success. You could say that every physical therapist is what I'm describing, but in my experience with a few different establishments throughout the years, this simply is not the case. The staff that has worked with me at PPT -- Christian, Sarah, Marvin, Amar -- have made my pain less painful by keeping visits enjoyable and helping me stay focused. With Gea, it's her empathy that stands out. And her unwavering confidence in herself, her colleagues, and me. I'm grateful for this. I'm certain I'm getting treated the right way and positive my pain will subside. I truly believe it. THAT is what separates Professional Physical Therapy from the rest. Highly recommend.
