Meet Stephen!

Stephen received a total hip replacement. He is Active Guard, so his goal for his recovery was to be able to perform for the Army Fitness Test. He did well only five months out of surgery, so I think it’s safe to say his goal was met!

Stephen shared his favorite part of his experience with us:
“Aside from the amazing personability of the staff, they were able to figure out techniques with certain movements that I had issues with for years of various other physical therapy sessions since 2011. This was by far the best all around program that I have undergone in physical therapy since 2000. The staff knew how to make it enjoyable while being highly effective, to the point that I didn’t dread going.”

A big shoutout to Stephen for all his hard work and dedication! Thank you for letting CAO play a role in your journey to recovery 💪🏼

Meet Brian!

Brian started physical therapy at our Leonardtown Clinic to recover from a torn calf, an injury he suffered while playing soccer. He worked hard week after week and not only met his goal but exceeded it!

Brian shared his favorite part of his experience with us:
“The people. Tara and Alec were awesome. I’ve used them both in the past and they are super knowledgeable and fun to chat with too. The set up and equipment at Leonardtown is also a contributing factor to the experience.”

We are so proud of your hard work, Brian, and we thank you for trusting CAO with your care! 💪🏼

Meet Taylor!

Taylor joined us back in January after suffering a knee injury during a field hockey game. Imaging revealed that she had torn her medial patellofemoral ligament following a patellar dislocation. With her senior season on the horizon, Taylor and her care team decided to take a non-operative approach to recovery.

Over the next several months, she committed herself fully to her rehab—working tirelessly to rebuild strength, stability, and confidence in her knee. Along the way, she also battled through episodes of low back pain, but she never let that slow her down.

Through perseverance and grit, Taylor made an incredible comeback—returning to the field for her senior season. And not only did she play, but she also helped lead her team to a State Championship win! 🏆

Taylor is a true example of determination, resilience, and hard work paying off.

We couldn’t be prouder of you, Taylor!
