I had PT here in 2013. My first visit I saw the therapist. He looked at my knee and measured how much I could bend it. Then he left d another person came in. She had me do several exercises. She would explain what I would do, set a timer and leave. When the time was up, she would explain the next exercise, reset the timer, and leave. When I finished those exercises I was taken to a different room where I was in a machine for one more exercise. After that I was finished for the day.
Every repeat visit was the same exercises without the therapist. At the last visit I saw the therapist for the second and final time. He measured how much I could bend my knee and that was it.
During my visits there was never any variation in the routine. After several visits I could have performed all of the exercises without any interaction with the staff. The feeling I had of the facility was like doing PT in someone's garage.
Since then I have had PT on my other knee at a different clinic and the difference is amazing. This PT was supervised constantly by a therapist. As I progressed, exercises were modified and additional exercises were added. read more
