I went to see Dr. Biddle for a severe tendonitis injury with my left Achilles. I had been training for a marathon and the race was quickly approaching and it was beginning to look like my injury would prevent me from competing in the race. When I went to see Dr. Biddle, he first performed a very thorough diagnostic exam on both of my legs to compare the muscles, tendons, and flexibility. When my injury had been properly diagnosed he performed several different physical therapy techniques to stretch out my tendon and break up any cartilage that was forming around my injury, and thus enabling proper healing. Dr. Biddle demonstrated several stretching and muscle exercises that targeted my injury so I could strengthen my tendon, and then watched me perform these exercises to ensure I was doing them properly. He also provided running recommendations regarding mileage, frequency, and intensity of my workouts. By the time my first visit with Dr. Biddle was complete, I was able to stand on my toes on my left leg and apply pressure to my injury without pain. During my visit with Dr. Biddle, he also took the time to stretch out both of my legs. During his initial exam he noticed that the muscles in my legs were very tight and pointed out that the tightness in my legs could be causing me to land differently on my left foot, causing the injury. He spent several minutes stretching out my legs in attempt to prevent future injury. I visited with Dr. Biddle on two more occasions leading up to my race. He was very thorough during both these visits to ensure he applied the proper exercises and stretches to my injury. By the time race day arrived, I was able to run a pain free, enjoyable marathon. I am very grateful to Dr. Biddle for the time he spent working on my injury to enable it to quickly heal and for his knowledge and expertise. I strongly recommend Dr. Biddle as a physical therapist that excels in the treatment and care of his patients. read more
