I really like Carol, wish I had her all the time. She is more challenging without being too much. She compensates for my bad leg if it hurts so I can still get benefits from the exercise on the new knee.

This is the 2nd time I've had Carol for PT, once for a knee replacement and now for a shoulder replacement. She's very good at putting me at ease and explaining the home exercises.
