Most athletes complete our ACL rehabilitation program in 6-9 months, with progress determined by individual healing rates and achievement of specific strength and movement criteria rather than arbitrary timelines.

Can you help with injuries other than ACL tears?

Wesley is the best! I came to Wesley with an ankle sprain and he was able to work one on one with me to heal my ankle and return back to soccer in no time. His ability to truly connect with his patients is unmatched and I am so grateful to be able to have worked with Wesley!

Wesley is someone Id recommend to everyone, he is the best PT Ive ever had. I came to him after working with a previous PT place for several months. They were about to clear me to play when I had limited range of motion and still extensive pain, it was NOT safe. I came to Wesley who had not only been in my position, but knew going back in my condition would destine me for a re tear. Ive seen Wesley every Wednesday for about a year maybe even more, every session I felt improvement. He gave me exercises not only to improved my recent acl tear but also exercises for my previous acl tear.
