Nice Braces
Those who know me know I am a hockey junkie of the worst kind. Last night, I had a knee injury that took me out of the game. I’m a reluctant “doctor visitor”, but this morning, I realized this was no ordinary strain…something more serious was going on, it was time to get things looked at.
Rather than head to the ER, I thought I would call a reputable orthopedic surgeon in the area and set an appointment for later in the week. Imagine my surprise when they said they had an opening that afternoon?! Wow. Great. I got in, they looked my knee over, looks like I will be off the ice for 4-6 weeks nursing an grade 2 MCL tear. They give me a short list of exercises to do once the swelling goes down a bit, but, and here’s the great thing, they ask to fit me with a knee brace right then and there. We’re not talking “ace bandage”, we’re talking robo-brace. The orthotics fitter is right there in the office and had a couple variations to make sure I had the most comfortable type, stabilizing type; no wonder Dr. Michael Wertz team comes so highly recommended.
This kind of service is precisely what business owners need to offer : convenience, attention to detail and most of all, quality care.
