getting my appointments scheduled with the therapist is not easy. i was lucky to get in when i did. he was the therapist my back surgeon specifically wanted me to see and initially it was going to be 3 weeks before getting in to see him. after my first appointment i was only able to schedule 2 more over another 4 weeks. it is not the most convenient that is for sure.

I wish I could have started earlier, but do to some obstacles I had I kept having to cancel. My surgery date is close so I'm sure with their help I will be ready.

I had a great experience and everything. Max, he was a student, and Mike also, he was a therapist, did a great job. The only thing I would say is they wanted me to come back one to two times a week, and I couldn't get in for a month. They did call me this week, and now I'm getting in tomorrow, which is a week later, but then I won't be able to see him again for a few more weeks. So anyway, when they want you to see and you can't get in, I know it's probably just you don't have enough people. So I just want to mention that. Thank you so much.
