PIPT: Back Pain & Difficulty Walking

Patient Success Spotlight

WELLNESS CORNER

“I’m beginning to climb steps better than before!” “I started going to Partners in Physical Therapy about a week or so before having major back surgery. After my surgery, I have been getting excellent, quality treatment fromWhitney and Lauren ( and their crew). The level of attention they pay to the patient care given in their treatment is second to none. I’m beginning to climb steps better than before - which may not sound like much to some - but for me is monumental. I’m looking forward to more visits and continued success with my treatments as I gain more confidence with each visit. My accident that caused my physical condition happened nearly twenty five years ago. So, to be gaining ground after so much time, many medical procedures, and constant pain, is fantastic! Thank you, PPT, for helping me to continue putting the pieces of my life back together. It’s going to be a long road for me, but I know they will get me there.” - Robert G.
