“I was able to play football this season!” “I had surgery on my knee in July of 2018, which was the second surgery on that knee in five years. Unfortunately, the surgery was more involved than expected. This meant a longer and harder recovery, with a more uncertain outcome. After the surgery, I lost motion and strength in my leg and had difficulty walking. I worked with Ben George at Johnston PT to regain motion and strength. My goal was to be able to play football for the 2018-19 season and basketball after that. Ben worked closely with my surgeon to help me recover. He also communicated with the high school coaches and trainer to transition me back to practice and play. With Ben’s help, I was able to play football this season—a month earlier than was expected. I really appreciate Ben’s skill and dedication to my recovery.” -Ben B.
