From ACL tear to renewed confidence! 🙌 This patient is regaining strength, mobility, and the ability to enjoy the activities she loves — all thanks to hard work and our Columbus Physical Therapy team!

"I came to Columbus Physical Therapy after tearing my ACL while working cattle with my dad. I had surgery in late July 2025 and started physical therapy right away. Since starting, I have gained more mobility and have begun to regain strength and confidence in completing daily activities, as well as other activities I enjoyed before my injury.

While I’m still working on building confidence, I look forward to getting back into rollerblading. I am thankful to the welcoming staff and especially Kaylee for pushing me toward success!"

We’re so proud of this patient’s hard work and progress after an Achilles tendon tear and surgery! Here’s what Eric had to say about their experience at Columbus Physical Therapy.

"I came to Columbus Physical Therapy after tearing my Achilles tendon and having surgery. Everyone at the clinic was extremely friendly and helpful.

A special thanks to the therapists I worked with individually — Scott and his students, Nolan, and Katelyn. They got me walking and moving better and faster than I could have imagined.

I would highly recommend Columbus Physical Therapy!"

We love celebrating our patients’ wins! This story from one of our patients reminds us why we do what we do every day.❤

"Before PT, I had back pain for over 20 years. It was a chore to do anything! Today, I emptied the dishwasher, cleaned the kitchen, and pumped my own gas—with zero to minimal pain!

Kaylee and the team here at Columbus Physical Therapy are truly a Godsend! I would recommend CPT to anyone. Everyone here took the time to listen and focused on the areas that were painful that day.

I sincerely cannot thank you all enough for everything you’ve done. For years, no one was able to alleviate my pain—but it took Kaylee less than six weeks. I cry happy tears knowing I’ll be able to play with my future grandkids and not be in excruciating pain.

Thank you for everything, from the bottom of my heart!"
