  1. "I have been working with Janet for more than 15 years.  When we met, she had seen very few Polio survivors, and wanted to become a student.  She worked directly with the full time PT at the International Center for Polio Education to learn about PPS".
  2. "I learned about Janet from this website.  She worked with me for months and was able to rid me of the groin, hip pain that I had been suffering with for years."
