Our user asked: "What questions should I ask the PT when interviewing clinics in my area? I have an ACL tear and need Physical Therapy to be ready for surgery. Thanks."

Ask a PT Response: "Some important questions to ask could be:
1) Will you be working with me one on one or will I be seeing other therapists or aides?
2) Are your therapists experienced with working with patients with ACL tears/reconstruction?
3) How long are the sessions?"
