I want to thank everyone associated with Advanced S.P.O.R.T.S. I walked in a few months ago with three severely herniated discs at the age of 65 and walked out perfectly well.  I am now playing golf again and I couldn’t be happier.  Prior to electing Physical Therapy over other options, I was actually told by a well-known surgeon in Manhattan that I was a perfect candidate for surgery and by a Physiatrist that I might never fully recover from my back injuries. So much for the well-renowned Physicians!

Part of the healing process is a strong will to get better and having competent, caring people around you who believe in what they do.  All the staff members at Advanced S.P.O.R.T.S. are not only good at what they do and believe in what they do, but sre genuinely friendly, extremely competent and interested in your wellbeing.

I’d like to thank Mike (Let’s Go Mets) and Diana and Evan who get you started on your daily routines.  They always greet you by name and are always there to help you with whatever assistance you need, at any time.  Good luck to all of you in all your future endeavors.

I’d like to thank Lisa as well.  She is the one that greets you with a big smile as soon as you enter the door that seems to say “Hi, I’m glad to see you.”  When you leave she says, “I hope you have a nice day,” and you know that she means it.  Thanks again Lisa for making me feel that I was welcome.

My next thank you goes to my Therapist, Walter.  AT first I was a little apprehensive that Walter was my Therapist.  Frank is more experienced and has been Therapist much longer, so I felt I was getting second best. But, make no mistake about it Walter is an excellent Therapist.  And I can’t stress that enough.  He is warm, genuine and expertly skilled at what he does and he loves his job.  I wish you luck in your chosen profession and best wishes on your forthcoming marriage.

Thanks also to Frank who I really never got to know.  Walter was my Therapist, but I would be remiss if I didn’t thank Frank as well.  He is the owner of the facility and has surrounded himself with an incredible staff.  I’m certain it’s his philosophy and business acumen that has made this facility such a success.

My final thanks goes to Orly, at first, you don’t get what her connection is to the whole scheme of things.  But, from my perspective, she was the most instrumental in getting me to where I am today.  From her, I received a half hour of individual attention twice a week.  She uses a holistic approach that encompasses everything you need to get healthy and continue to maintain your health.  One of her specialties is building up your core muscles and balance.  She also works on your posture, the way you walk, what you eat, how you breathe and how you exercise.  She’ll even provide you with homemade recipes or her opinions on any issues that you bring up.  She is tough and demanding at times but you take it because she’s much cuter than Walter.  Orly, I think you’re terrific! I think you are making a difference in people’s lives and I wish you and your family all the best!

Here are my final comments:

I hope I never need to see any of you professionally again but I wish you all what you wish for yourselves and again thank you for helping me get better.

Sincerely,

Bob K.
