In July of 2024, I was riding my bike when a distracted driver caused me to crash into the back of their mini van. I had direct shoulder impact with the van, landed on my back on the road and hit my head. I was wearing a helmet which probably kept me from more serious injury. I started going for PT from the beginning and continued up until my surgery in February 2025. Julie was my primary therapist from the beginning to the end. She showed great care and knowledge while dealing with my injury both before and after surgery. The progression of manipulation, stretching and strength exercises were right on target. She knew when to push me, because despite my age I am very active and athletic. Julie was aware of my goals and after 9 months from surgery I am getting closer to my pre-accident condition. Julie and her staff treated me like a part of the family. This may sound odd but I looked forward to going to the sessions because I knew I would be challenged each and every time in order to get closer to reaching my goal. I want to thank Julie and all of the staff for helping me get back to 100%. I also can't thank enough Dr. James Paci and his staff for providing me with the best surgical care I could ask for. The knowledge, expertise and professionalism are unmatched as far as I am concerned. He took a bad injury and made me strong again. I am now confident to start training again and get back to my pre-accident level of activity.
