Sarah Orgel is Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation-Opelika

“I was experiencing arthritis in my knee and I wanted to strengthen it and possibly avoid surgery. When I came to Encore, I was familiar with one of the Physical Therapists here, and after the first visit I felt comfortable with the entire Rehab Team. I also enjoyed working with the Student Physical Therapists in the clinic. Encore because it is such a warm, welcoming setting. The Rehab Team is well trained and motivating, and it is a very well-organized facility.

“I performed full range of motion in my knee, stretching and strengthening exercises and the benefits have been dramatic! I am transitioning into their wellness program now. Focusing on living skills gives me more confidence and helps prevent falls! I would recommend Encore for Physical Therapy.” ~ Sarah Orgel, happy patient

Congratulations to Sarah Orgel, Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation–Opelika!
