Sports Medicine & Physical Therapy - Kerrville

It was an ordinary day in late January when I fell out of the back of a pickup truck with my lower leg caught in the bed. Just a slip of the foot, and three ligaments in my left knee suddenly found themselves with nothing to do.nAn outstanding orthopedic surgeon put me back together, but it was the righteous people at Sports Medicine & Physical Therapy (Kerrville chapter) that got me walking again.nHaving had no prior need for physical therapy, I initially didn’t know what to expect. I may have experienced flashbacks of boot camp before I introduced myself to the team at SM & PT, but they soon laid my fears to rest.nMike was all business when he greeted me and took my particulars on my first day, but he has a sense of humor and laid-back attitude that puts you at ease in short order. Jody is friendly and down-to-earth despite being the head of their operation. As we worked he happily listened to the old motorcycling stories I used to make up to impress people at parties. You’ll find that Caitlin is about as serious about patient recovery as it gets, but to be honest she’s hilarious and is so sweet to put up with my particular brand of humor for as long as she did. Cheyenne is like the little sister of the group, cheerful and always happy to help. Though she’s relatively new to the clinic I never found a question about physical therapy that she couldn’t answer.nStill, the people most responsible for my recovery are Brandy and Shelby.nTogether they put me through a structured and dynamic recovery program, modified from the norm to accommodate my particular injury. Their professionalism was matched only by their patience as I worked my way up from hobbling around like a pirate to my coworkers saying they can’t even tell anything had happened to me at all.nThough thoroughly qualified, Brandy and Shelby lack any pretentiousness and made going to physical therapy seem like visiting friends or family. They readily demonstrated my exercises when needed and kept meticulous notes on my progress as the days went on. I found myself working that much harder just so we could all share the victory as the state of my knee continually improved.nI still cringe and shake my head when I recall what happened to me that day in January. But I’m lucky that my doctor referred me to Sports Medicine & Physical Therapy. I was bummed out when I walked out of the clinic for the last time, but hey, I was walking, and that’s something I won’t take for granted again.nThank you, guys. I still bend the knee.nn- Bo Woodman

Had shoulder surgery in late February 2020. Caitlyn was awesome to work with. She was extremely knowledgeable and encouraging in my rehab routine. It was my 2nd surgery on that shoulder and I recovered three times as fast as I did with my first shoulder surgery. I had total knee replacement last week 8/26 and will be using them again for knee rehab. The entire group is a pleasure to work with

I rehabilitated with this group after total hip replacement surgery and could not be happier with the results. They are knowledgeable and professional. More importantly, this is a happy positive place staffed with great people. Todd and Brandy, thank you so much.

Last year I entered a 100 mile gravel bike race in Colorado. During my training I over stressed my shoulders and neck. Jody and Mike got me past the pain and I was able to finish the race. This year I was back for a pulled hamstring and returned for treatment. I'm now ready to get back in shape for this summer's 100 miles. At 73 years old training for an event is a lot harder than it was at 57 years old. Thanks Jody

Husband has shoulder surgery. Andy worked miracles!
