"With my physical therapy now complete, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all that you helped me to accomplish. I know that I was not your easiest patient in the beginning but you stuck with me and enabled me to reach the goals that were set for me. Coming to therapy was the highlight of my day during my recovery. Everyone on the staff went out of their way to be supportive and made me feel that even the smallest of improvements was a major accomplishment for me. Even the other patients seemed to be excited with my progress, often telling me how well I was doing. I felt like I had a new extended family."
