Patient Story: Submitted by Dan

“I have been playing baseball nearly all my life, first as a pitcher and then as a coach for youth baseball. Roughly 600 pitches a week led me to needing a total knee replacement. After my surgery, I never thought physical therapy would be fun. But what a surprise! I actually looked forward to some pain. My therapist, Bernadette (B), was so much fun and would get the whole room engaged in entertaining conversations. She was also very concerned about my progress. Now, I am back working, golfing and walking my golden retriever. I recently joined a gym for swimming and weightlifting. Hopefully, my left knee never needs surgery, but if so, B is my PT lady. She’s phenomenal!”
