Buddy

Jon, aka “Buddy,” has been coming to 3DPT Hainesport for about a year and a half now and truly has become part of the 3D family! Buddy has been working hard on correcting toe walking and ankle mobility, and as you can see he has made significant improvement. We have selected him as patient of the month because he is always excited to come to PT, always has a smile on his face, and brightens everyone’s day. 

When his mom drops him off, everyone in the clinic (including other patients) knows we’re about to have a fun hour.

Buddy also never fails to bring in a stuffed animal to share with us including “Roosevelt,” “Cookie Dough,” “Slothy,” and “Mr. Cuddleton.” He even gifted Kaitlin her very own stuffed animal for baby Elliot right before she was born!

We are so proud of him for the hard work he has put into getting better.

Great job Buddy! Kaitlin, Dan, and Madi love treating you! 

Here’s what Buddy had to say about his injury and experience at 3DPT Hainesport

Tell us about what brought you to physical therapy and how this affected your life.

Walking on my toes has been my habit my whole life. I don’t feel like it affects my life really

What has been the hardest part of your therapy?  What was your favorite part of physical therapy?

I’d say like doing balancing stuff is the hardest. My favorite part is meeting and talking to new people.

Check out this video to see all the fun Buddy and the Hainesport team have!

What advice would you give to other people who suffered similar injuries or going through the same situation? 

To believe that they can get out of that situation

Why would you recommend 3 Dimensional Physical Therapy to your friends?

Because there are a lot of nice people there who help you get better

What is your favorite summer activity now that you are moving better?

Going to the beach
