Focus PT - June 2018

Celebrating Our PT ’s Recent We ing Congratulations to Shannon Pink!

“Jon and I have been dating for over 11 years, and engaged for 1½,” she says, “so it was wonderful to make it official surrounded by our family and friends!” They tied the knot in the city they originally met: San Luis Obispo

At Focus Physical Therapy, we pride ourselves on building a team of only the most passionate physical therapists, a group of talented musculoskeletal experts who are truly dedicated to changing their patients’ lives. And since she finished up her Doctor of Physical Therapy at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences and started at Focus nearly five years ago, Shannon Pink has fit that description perfectly. With her wide breadth of knowledge and genuine love for facilitating her patients’ well-being, you couldn’t ask for a better medical professional to have by your side during treatment. “My favorite thing is making a positive difference in someone’s life,” she says. “There’s nothing better than an email or call from a previous patient months down the road, telling me all the great things they’ve been able to do since we worked together.” Of course, Shannon’s patients already know about her boundless reserves of compassion and skill. What they’re curious to hear about lately is her wedding to her fiancé Jon Freeberg in late April! Since she returned from her picturesque honeymoon in Jamaica a few weeks ago, everyone’s been asking for details and pictures of her special day.

near the Cal Poly campus. Backdropped by a small pond and the verdant, rolling California hills, it was truly a ceremony to remember. With gorgeous flower arrangements provided by her mother’s floral business and centerpieces of driftwood and succulents the couple had collected themselves, it was hard to imagine a more fitting way to celebrate the love between Shannon and Jon.

As for their honeymoon, she says they spent most of the time “hanging out at [their] all-inclusive resort, relaxing by the beach, swimming, scuba diving, and enjoying the delicious food.” All of us are so happy for them both and wish them all the best in their future together. In the meantime, we’re just glad to have her on our team, doing everything she can to get our patients back on their feet and into their normal lives!

SUCCESS STORIES

“My experience at Focus PT has been excellent. I had a complete tear and repair of my rotator cuff and expected a very painful and long recovery time. I’m happy to report that I am at 22 weeks and couldn’t be happier with the results I have achieved. I attribute my success to Shannon

Julian persevered with a combination of various types of manipulation and stretches until I was able to realize significant improvement. I am extremely grateful to Julian and the rest of the Focus staff for all their efforts. It is a blessing to no longer have to deal with the pain from my shoulder and to have the range of motion that I was without for so long. In conclusion, I want to thank Julian and the Focus staff for allowing me to return to my previous quality of life!” -Louis Alvarez
