I
had
a
great
experience
at
OrthoSport's
Fort
Street
location.
My
PT
was
Jill
who
did
the
PT
evaluation
and
Izmael,
the
PT
aide
who
oversaw
my
therapy
sessions.
I
was
just
beginning
rehab
from
knee
surgery
and
visiting
from
the
Mainland.
I
found
the
downtown
clinic
and
Izmael
to
be
a
welcoming
and
very
patient-oriented
facility.
Izmael
was
careful
to
move
me
along
at
a
careful
pace
and
strictly
followed
rehab
protocols.
He
was
patient
and
increased
exercise
difficulty
as
I
was
able
to
do
so.
I
was
also
impressed
that
Jill
was
able
to
integrate
aquatic
exercises
into
my
routine.
By
the
end
of
my
3-week
stay,
I
had
progressed
significantly
and
was
quite
sad
to
leave
Izmael's
care
for
the
anonymous,
rushed
PT
treatments
I've
become
accustomed
to
in
California.
I
have
shoulder
surgery
coming
up
soon
and
have
scheduled
another
trip
to
Honolulu
to
get
my
PT
at
Orthosport.
I'm
serious,
OrthoSport
Hawaii
is
so
good
I'm
flying
to
Hawaii
for
rehab.
Thanks
Iz
for
your
attention,
patience,
and
personalized
care.

I
am
updating
my
original
review
with
my
experience
with
a
second
course
of
post-op,
rehab
treatment
for
a
repaired
rotator
cuff.
After
my
positive
experience
with
Orthosport,
I
scheduled
my
trip
to
Honolulu
to
begin
my
treatment
with
Orhosport.
This
time
I
was
assigned
Tasha
Connolly
as
my
physical
therapist.
Tasha
did
the
initial
evaluation
of
my
shoulder
and
was
hands-on
for
treatment
for
my
seven
subsequent
visits.
She
is
far
and
away,
the
absolute
best
PT
I
have
ever
had
(and
unfortunately,
I
have
had
a
LOT
of
rehab
over
the
years).
Tasha
is
extremely
skilled
as
a
PT.
She
use
multiple
modalities
including
heat,
myofacial
release,
and
passive
and
active
ranging
to
free
up
my
affected
shoulder.
My
doctor
was
unclear
with
his
protocol
and
Tasha
was
relentless
in
following-up
with
the
doctor's
office
to
get
clarification
on
my
course
of
treatment.
In
terms
of
treatment,
I
found
Tasha
to
be
excellent
at
not
only
showing
me
exercises,
but
coaching
me
through
proper
body
positioning,
and
giving
me
context
of
the
bigger
treatment
picture
and
the
reason
for
doing
exercises
which
helped
me
immensely
in
my
compliance
with
the
treatment
program
outside
of
the
clinic.
Tasha
was
always
patient
and
supportive
even
when
I
had
difficulty
doing
exercises
properly.
My
future
wellness
will
go
far
beyond
rehabilatation
of
my
affected
shoulder.
Through
Tasha,
I
have
learned
fundamental
skills
to
improve
my
posture
and
mental
focus
as
invaluable
side
benefits
of
Tasha's
approach
to
my
shoulder
treatments.
Thanks
so
much
Tasha
for
your
professionalism,
empathy,
and
deep
knowledge
of
physical
therapy
and
the
human
body.
You
are
the
absolute
best!
No
ka
oi!
Mahalo
many
times
over.
