I have worked with physical therapist Hetal on her previous work at Dutch Hill Road in Orangeburg, NY. When I arrived I was in a cast from a broken patella and could not bend my leg. It was so difficult for me to see the possibility that I would ever bend it. The pain was so excruciating. It was difficult at best to perform the exercises that Hetal gently asked me to do. She is compassionate, encouraging. She kept on telling me when I doubted, that I will soon be able to bend it. Slowly as I worked with her encouragement and sometimes even pushing me more than I wanted to pursue, I started to see the kneecap bending. Today on May 3rd, I can walk without a cane, a walker or crutches. I am going up and down stairs, albeit, very slowly but I could not have reached my potential today without my PT, Hetal. I feel that I am getting my life back slowly. She has become someone that I can even call a friend, someone that I am very fond of. I highly recommend Hetal as a PT, not only because of what I mentioned above, but because she was continually finding new and innovative ways to heal my leg and I thank her and Sports PT for helping me to gain back my confidence. I wish her good luck with her own practice and I will absolutely recommend your facility. Thank you!
