How to choose a qualified physical therapist

Edit Post

I'm considering doing cll on my femurs to gain 3 more inches. I wanted to know how does a person know how to choose the right physical therapist back home if you do the distraction and consolidation therapy back in your home town. Like how would you know which physical therapist to look for and are you supposed to tell the PT that you've undergone cll? Any input would help especially from experience ll'ers.

Hmm... You sure I'm gonna find a physical therapist then? Lol jk I get what you mean. Look for someone who will be upfront about the process being tough. I'm in Chicago and would like to hit the first time on the therapist rather than switching PT.

Honestly I'm not gonna do it with Paley cause I don't think I want to be in WPB. I rather do it with a surgeon that'll let me go home and do it and send x Ray's back to them from here. Also Paley is the most expensive. I rather get it done by DR R in NY or Dr M in LA, but I know their recommended pt will be in those cities. I would love to do it in WPB but my parents will wonder why I'm gone for so long lol. At least if I come back home I can tell them I suffered a knee injury and need 5 months off you know.

Thanks man really appreciate it. Hope you have nothing but success with your surgery. Been following your post too. I'm just trying to reach average height man lol. I'm the shortest dude in my family and among my friends. I know it's all physiological and wearing lifts definitely helps me but when I'm at the beach, altering clothes cause they don't fit, can't wear certain shoes cause they don't feel right with lift, that's when I feel life would be easier with this procedure but I know I'd be okay without it but I know I also would have one less thing to stress about with it as long as there isn't any complications or anything.

5'5 and a half. With my lifts I'm 5'7 or 5'8. Not 100 percent sure but I think it's 5'8 cause there's a guy who says he's 5'8 or 5'9 and I'm his height when I wear my lifts.

sounds good man. Yeah thats what I've been doing so far is viewing diaries and researching as much as possible before i decide whether or not i want to do this. The stryde diaries make it seem like it might be worth it from what I've been reading so far.
