Patient Testimonials

Arm
"When I first came in I couldn't use my arm or hand. With time and therapy, I am now able to write and lift my arm halfway. Lindsey has been so patient and kind with me- pushing me to the limit but without pain. All of the staff has been incredibly kind. It has been a wonderful experience." -Kathleen Darveau

Concussion Recovery
"Two years ago I took a fall that led to a concussion. I had never really thought much about concussions. Just a little rest and you are back to your life, right? That was not the case for me and I was afraid of what was happening. My vision was blurry, I couldn't see laterally, my balance was off, I couldn't walk without becoming dizzy, my thoughts were jumbled, and sounds were overwhelming. I learned my brain had to build new pathways to function again and when it takes longer than normal to recover it's known as Post Concussion Syndrome. This is where physical therapy came in. I was sent to Lucas Thompson, who has worked with concussions. My internet search said I could only be helped in a large city like Denver, even though there are therapists at BBGH with this training. From my first appointment, I was treated with such respect and understanding. I had felt like no one would believe me because so many things were going on at once, but I was assured that these symptoms were consistent with head trauma. Lucas was so knowledgeable about everything we were doing and why we were doing it. He explained things to me in a way I could understand. Other therapists worked with me as well and I felt my care was always consistent. The whole Physical Therapy department has a very friendly atmosphere, making it more enjoyable when you are hurting! It's easy to make appointments and you get a reminder call. I am happy we have this level of help and rehabilitation right here in Alliance. I happily recommend it to everyone I know." -Bonnie Twogood

Eating Habits
"Hannah has been working with my son for the past two months. We have been participating in food therapy with her to help improve my son's eating habits. She has been great with him! She is fun, but firm and he just adores her. We are continuing to work with her, but she's making great strides in helping us develop healthy eating habits with our boy. We are very grateful for her care and patience." 

Hip
"I broke my hip and had it replaced. Therapy was wonderful for me. I enjoyed Rebecca as my physical therapist. When I first started I had to use a walker and needed help for chores around the house, now I am able to walk without any help and gained all of my independence back." -Jayne Hubbell

Knee
"Great therapists, got me where I needed to be and further. I even got training on using equipment in the gym so I can continue to build needed strength. The exercises I have been given to do at home will help so much on snow days." - Bruce Porter

"Recovery is tough! I had both of my knees replaced; one 10 years ago, and the other this past June. It is not an easy surgery and I was not looking forward to my second replacement. I knew that with the help of the PT department, I would be in excellent hands in my recovery process! The whole team is amazing! From the kind, courteous, and efficient scheduling team always greeting you with a smile and warm welcome to the entire staff of physical therapists! Special thanks to Andrew Leider and Mike Stevens. We are blessed to have such qualified, professional, and kind staff, all under the leadership of Tim Devlin!" -Joni Jespersen

Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
"This has been very helpful and informative for me. I have learned about isolating muscle control and am very pleased with my progress." 

PT/OT
"Unfortunately I have had four occasions to be prescribed rehabilitation visits in the past several years, both for Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy. Although I never enjoy the thought of rehab, the staff at BBGH make the experience as easy and stress-free as possible. There is such a team approach from the minute I call for my initial appointment through 'Graduation' from rehab. The facility has incredible equipment and cleanliness is a top priority. Each team member is so respectful, conscientious, and pleasant. Whether scheduling, making appointment changes, being offered water upon arrival, receiving consultation, or intense treatments, the experience is A+." -Beth Forney

"The experience I had with Rebecca was exceptional. She was so thorough and mindful of my needs. She made sure to explain everything about setting my goals for each step of the healing process. She was so patient with me and didn't try to rush me through the processes. I was amazed at how creative she was with coming up with different techniques on the spot. Rebeca helped improve my daily quality of living. I am so grateful she was my therapist." - M. Seline Peters
