Congratulations to Mike McGovern, our recent ProCare Graduate and this month’s Patient Spotlight! Mike, a teacher at South Country School District and assistant Pastor for “The Journey” of East Patchogue, chose Professional Care Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation after his surgery to repair his ruptured Achilles Tendon. An avid runner and a participant in two marathons prior to his injury, Mike was told that he would never run again after his surgery. This news challenged Mike to push himself towards full recovery. Not only are we pleased to see Mike running again, but we are so proud to announce that he is training to enter the NYC Marathon in 2020! After months of hard work and dedication, Mike is in fantastic physical shape. So much so that he recently returned home from a journey to Rockport, TX where he participated in a mission trip to assist in the rebuilding efforts after Hurricane Harvey. We are so proud of Mikes efforts, both in and out of the PT office!
