[pullquote style="right" quote="dark"]I am honored and privileged that Heidi asked me to write a testimonial for her. When we first met, Heidi was in the process of recovery from a difficult knee problem that was painful and that significantly inhibited her activity level and goals. At that time, I recognized quickly that she already had within her the “tools” to fulfill her dream of returning to an active lifestyle. These “tools” were not concrete instruments per se, but personal qualities that were emanated from within her: they included her mental and emotional responses to a significant problem and her desire and willingness to properly prepare for success in recovery from her condition of arthrofibrosis of the knee. Working with Heidi, you will receive thoughtful recommendations and advice that, when applied, will help provide you the tools to use in your process of healing and which will also have a very positive impact on your you and your overall health and well-being.The foundation for physical healing is a proper emotional and mental approach to recovery from injury and surgery. Your process of recovery has begun as you think about and follow the wisdom Heidi shares. I am grateful to her in so many ways, including for what she has taught me from the perspective of the patient. You will be also.I wish you a healthy recovery and a happy return to the activity level you desire.—Steven B. Singleton, MD[/pullquote]
[pullquote style="right" quote="dark"]The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers. —M. Scott Peck[/pullquote]
