I had just had a total knee replacement. My Physical Therapyst was Chester Lee. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He has a great sense of humor as well. I made a lot of progress during the two weeks of care. I highly recommend him.

My experience with the team at VN @ Albany Med during my recent Recovery from knee replacement was a pleasant and productive experience. From Laura coming out on a Saturday for my initial visit just 2 days after surgery , To Jenna who worked with me for 3 weeks and was a great motivator, but also very knowledgeable about the recovery process. I would highly recommend both of them to anyone looking for home PT.

My father received physical therapy from Chester at the Albany VNA after another local in-home therapy company prematurely discharged him. Chester was an absolute God send. He not only got my father back to the level he was prior to breaking his leg…he even helped my father become stronger and more mobile. Chester was also very considerate and patient with my father’s mobility issues from his Multiple Sclerosis.

I cannot express my deepest gratitude for seaneen and Jenna. I was very scared when we started. I believe they are the best therapist you have. They are a great face of the vna. I’m back to 95% of my shoulder movements and strength. I think they deserve much gratitude and appreciation for all they did for me. I work in healthcare in many capacities and I appreciate both seaneen and Jenna for their work and support. I did what they told me to do and I got better They deserve a big raise!!!
