John Woodward is the best. Very knowledgeable and transfers the information about your injury in terms you can understand. I've had him a few times now for different recoveries and he is top notch.

I just want to say that I have had nothing but good experiences with the Ortho Nebraska. I go to John, I forgot his last name right now, John Woodward and he's great. I've been using him for many years, maybe at least 20 years, when I had orthoscopic work on both knees, years, that many years ago on a hip and now I'm doing the two knees. He's good, he's good. He gives me good advice and seems to understand and I think he really, he helped me a lot with my last knee surgery and I'm working with him now. Thank you so much, he's a great therapist.
