Best Physical Therapist in Area

I'm located in Callaway area and recovering from massive lower leg damage and will be looking for the best physical therapist to help me learn to walk and use my leg again soon.

If you can highly recommend a physical therapist, please provide me with name and number.

Also I don' t mind traveling a ways for the best.

Thanks.

I go to the Gateau Clinic across Metcom in California. They're pretty good.

Ultimate Therapy in Leonardtown (301-997-1155) Awesome therapists!

Whomever you choose, make sure they are licensed (the PTs and the PTAs). Many places will use unlicensed assistants to set you up with treatments and exercises when they are not licensed or trained to do so. Never be afraid to ask questions.

Good luck with your rehab!

That is the best advice.

I went to place recommended by my doctor and the place was very hokey, and it turned out the "doctor" in charge wasn't a doctor and nobody was licensed.

You have to ask the questions and find out the answers for yourself in these situations.

Call the suggested places, but before making an appointment, do your research and get your questions answered.

Good luck.
