REHABILITATING YOUR PATIENTS’ KNEES

Since the knee is the most complicated weight- bearing joint in the body, it is more prone to injury as well as wear and tear. Patients may present with a host of symptoms from acute sharp pain with movement, to deep achy pain after prolonged standing. The type of pain and location, combined with special tests can go a long way to assuring the proper diagnosis and treatment for the patient, without the need for expensive imaging. Physical therapy is recommended by many studies, as the first tool a physician should use in treating their patient for orthopedic injuries. One such study in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed that for meniscal tears and knee osteoarthritis in 351 patients, physical therapy was just as effective as surgery. Furthermore, only 30% of the physical therapy group needed to have surgery within the following 6 months. The facts point to physical therapy as the right choice for controlling healthcare costs to the patient and improving results. Physical therapy should be prescribed as a first line of defense against knee pain and injury. With the knee program at our clinic, your patients will receive the most extensive physical therapy evaluation and treatment in the area. Our focus is on achieving the best results for you and the quickest recovery, ensuring your patients thank you for referring them.

S U C C E S S S T O R I E S WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY

Liz Lamontagne was my PT for both my spinal fusion surgeries. She is amazing, smart, kind, responsive, and helped me recover fully from

my serious surgeries. Whenmy 8 year old daughter needed PT, I signed her up with Liz and she has been as wonderful for her as she was with me. My daughter loves going, and is improving rapidly. Liz is responsive and capable, and is one of the best physical therapists I’ve ever gone to and I’ve had 10 surgeries over the past 30 years so I’m in a good position to judge. - C.K.

After coming here I won’t go anywhere else. Russel and his staff are highly experienced, friendly, and above all else, effective.” – L.H.
