I came to HDPT 8 weeks s/p Achilles repair surgery. I hobbled in on crutches, non weight bearing, had just got out of my cast, and I thought the level 5 pain I was experiencing daily was going to be my new normal. My surgeon did warn me it was going to be a 9-12 month rehabilitation.
I walked in hopeful and was met with the best team I could have ever imagined. The positive energy from Ed, Steve and the entire support staff helped me during a very challenging time to overcome not only the great physical challenges, but also the mental ones.
During my struggles they always gave me encouragement, helping me to focus on the small goals, pushing me to believe in myself.
HDPT not only gave me the tools I needed to reach a full recovery, but they gave me the confidence I needed to get there.
Today was my last day of PT. It has been eights months since my surgery and I am pain free and back to walking.
Thanks again Ed, Steve and the entire staff of HDPT! I could not have done it without you.
