"Something new developed with me since this appointment was scheduled. Sara was able to take my new diagnosis into consideration and make the needed changes to what we were going to work on. She also worked it into my home program. I like that she printed out the exercises I needed to work on at home."

"I would say if someone says they're measuring your knees to see how far back you can go without pain, listen to the patient. I went as far as I could, Sara had me go a little bit further by bending my knee more. That little bit gave pain the rest of day, and I had severe pain that night. If work comp wants to know how much you hurt, they should listen to what the patient says. Other than that Sara was really nice."
