I had total knee replacement 4/30/2019 and I successfully did my rehab Physio at LaSalle location. Mario/Laura were fantastic and extremely positive through the journey. It was very helpful being in the presence of others on the same journey but at different stages. My goal was to get back on the golf course and I crushed that goal. Thank you Mario. Today I started back at Physio with knee replacement 2, I know the Pinnacle team will have me back to 💯 % before year end. Just do the exercises and all will be good.
