After years of lurking, and visiting friends in TV, my life situation finally allows for me to snowbird January-March in TV. In preparation for this, I decided to introduce myself to pickleball, while up in the north. I have a background in racket sports, and was really looking forward to this.

My local golf club just built two courts, and did a clinic night. I participated. I was having great fun right up to the moment my right achilles tendon went "kersnappity"...

yep, total rupture.

By the time I hit TV around Jan. 1, I should be out of the boot, may or may not be taking full golf swings, but will definitely be needing to continue my PT while in Sunny Florida.
Any recommendations for a PT clinic?

Thanks!

There are many PT here in The Villages. This is going to one of those times where everybody that answers this request is probably going to recommend as many different therapists as people answering. I suggest that you take a look at the therapists in your area when you get here and find one that you are comfortable with.

This isn't all of them by any stretch. There are many. I tore my achilles tendon and Dr. Johnny Wu immobilized it for 12 weeks, except for showers, in a black boot. You may want to consult him. I didn't have to have therapy.
