I have had the pleasure to experience my second tour with Peak Performance, and working with Andrew. He was simply outstanding in working with me, and developing a personal plan for my recovery from knee replacement surgery with the goal of getting back to tennis. As an added plus, Margaret, an intern from Daemen College, teamed with Andrew to help me in my quick recovery. Back on the courts and very happy, thanks to Andrew and Margaret! ~ Duncan Ververs May 8, 2019

This was my second full knee replacement. I came to Peak Performance for my first replacement last year and returned because I could not imagine going anywhere else. Once again Andrew, along with Karen and Mark (their intern), did an awesome job helping me get through my recovery. I greatly appreciated the attention to detail in each exercise to ensure that I got the maximum benefit for the work involved. Their extensive knowledge, expertise and encouraging support was always evident in all they did and in my successful recovery. I can now go up and down stairs properly, I no longer need a cane to walk my dog, I can walk faster and longer than before, and I can do more daily tasks than I could for the past five years! My sincere thanks to Andrew and the staff at Peak Performance for all they did through my recovery. I will continue to highly recommend them to anyone in need of physical therapy. Bonnie Stiggins

I am a work in progress! I came in after right knee total replacement. With the left knee already in line for replacement, I have had great improvement rehabbing the replaced knee. Andrew is a master at his craft and I have greatly benefited from his expertise and knowledge. I will continue my work on my own until I return to Peak in June 2019 after my total left knee replacement! Barbara "Bobi" Sherwood December 11, 2018

Karen was awesome with my treatment rehab after my total knee replacement. I had difficulty squatting, descending stairs without holding onto the railing and endurance. I am excited to report that I skied three straight days at Killington. I was able to ski the best I have in years…from top to bottom of the mountain without a rest period. Thanks, Karen, and the team at Peak Performance! Catherine H. February 12, 2018

It has been an “enlightening” experience working with Mike at Peak Performance. I began PT four weeks after a knee replacement with minimal movement and have progressed to confident movement in all my life activities. Peak Performance offered outstanding support and encouragement throughout this process, from teaching me how to accomplish basic life activities without pain to educating me about the mechanics of the knee and helping me stay positive. I am now moving freely and independently during life activities like walking, yoga, gym activities, and family life. Peak Performance has a wonderful, supportive staff that is very knowledgeable, understanding and empathetic to my needs. Many thanks! Judie M. February 7, 2018

I had my right knee replaced in October. Six weeks after surgery, my doctor said I was the furthest ahead of any patient they had ever seen because of the program Andrew designed for me and my willingness to do the exercises at home. At 12 weeks, the doctor was still impressed with the results of physical therapy and said I could do the rest on my own. Thanks, Andrew! Thomas S.

Many thanks to Andrew, who helped rehabilitate two new knees during the last 15 months. Both knees are now fully functional! Andrew’s expertise and guidance are very much appreciated. I’d recommend him to anyone having a knee replacement! Joseph P. Nov. 15, 2017

I have had pain in my left hip for years. Within the past year, I had to stop walking for exercise. I couldn’t do yoga or Pilates workouts and greatly decreased my physical activity, including sitting on the floor. In May, I had a total hip replacement. I started seeing Karen 4 weeks after surgery. When I started at Peak Performance, I was using a cane full time. I could not get down on the floor, which is necessary for my job as a pediatric OT. Working with Karen has been wonderful…each week she changed up my routine based on what I reported back and now I am able to enjoy my walks for exercise again. My endurance is back to normal and I have resumed all of my household and work activities, including sitting on the floor! Martha M. October 12, 2017

I needed a complete knee replacement. I couldn’t do many things without difficulty…such as walking was limited, lifting legs to go upstairs, shopping, standing for periods of time. Now, after PT, I can do things without pain. I’m much stronger and happier. Getting up in the morning and having a good day is awesome! I want to thank Andrew for helping me and encouraging me. Everyone is so nice here. Thanks again. I’ll be back for my other knee when I have it done next year! Rebecca Rhinewald September 1, 2017

I had a full left knee replacement on August 1, 2016. Lifetime Care provided me in-house physical therapy until August 31. While I made decent progress during this period, I still needed additional therapy to make the knee completely functional. Upon the recommendation of several retired work colleagues, I signed on for additional therapy at Peak Performance. Working with Andrew from September 6th to November 2nd, I was able to strengthen the knee and achieve full functionality. Many thanks to Andrew for his expertise and dedication. Joseph P.
