Dear Braxton,
I want to personally thank you and the entire staff for the excellent care I received at Summit Physical Therapy.
I had total reverse shoulder replacement Monday, May 11, 2026, as a result of a non-repairable torn rotator cuff.
The next Monday I started my recovery at Summit Physical Therapy, two days a week. This was my first time to ever have physical therapy,
I had no idea what to expect.
From day one, the front desk, Braxton, all of the therapist, and the entire staff, made me feel comfortable and welcome.
I would especially like to thank my physical therapist, Braxton Clifton,
for being so patient, kind, skilled, and knowledgeable. He listened to my goals, answered my questions, explained every exercise clearly, and built a custom plan just for my specific needs.
He went above and beyond what I expected. He explained why each exercise was needed and what it would accomplish.
He also changed and customized my exercise plan as I progressed and got stronger to achieve the best results possible.
I had heard horror stories about how painful recovery would be.
My experience at Summit Physical Therapy was not like that. I was a little sore a couple of times, but I experienced minimal or no pain at all. By the way, the ice machine at the end of each session was a bonus!
The entire staff is excellent. Each therapist brings their own special skills and expertise that they blend together seamlessly.
Their goal was my 100% recovery, in which they all worked
together to accomplish.
The results speak for themselves. After surgery, I was in a sling and I could not move my arm at all. Today, I am much stronger and moving without pain. I am able to use my arm and shoulder better than I did before my surgery. I am almost to the point, with continued exercise,
I will feel as though I never had an injury to begin with.
The staff has given me the tools and home exercises I need to stay healthy and continue getting stronger.
I recommend Summit Physical Therapy to anyone who needs physical therapy.
In my opinion, they are the best!
I can finally put my coffee in the microwave.
(I am thankful even for the little things.)
But I couldn’t have accomplished it without them.
Thank you for giving me my mobility back, while holding my hand
and guiding me along the way.
I can’t thank you enough!
