FyzicalElPaso: Hand Therapy

Patient Success Spotlight

“I have recovered full mobility of my shoulder again!” “I will admit after surgery I found myself very skeptical in even knowing if physical therapy would work, much less which place to choose. Now I can say that thanks to Cristina and Jennifer, I have recovered full mobility of my shoulder again and can return to full duty as a peace officer. I would like to take a minute to thank all the staff from FYZICAL for their wonderful care and support through this stressful journey. God bless! I give FYZICAL 10 out of 5 stars.” - Carlos G.
