Faith, runner and ultra marathoner, spent nearly a decade working toward her dream race, The Western States ® 100-Mile Endurance Run, when knee pain almost stopped her. She chose Dr. Phillip Williams, one of our sports medicine surgeons and runner himself, and together they built a personalized plan to get her across the finish line.
Faith describes her experience with Dr. Williams and our team, “This past summer, I had the opportunity to run my dream race—a goal I had been pursuing for nearly a decade. When I began experiencing knee pain, I knew it was important to find a provider who truly understood the challenges runners face. That’s why I sought out someone with firsthand running experience, which led me to Dr. Williams.
Dr. Williams took the time to listen to my concerns and worked with me to develop a thoughtful treatment plan. Thanks to his care and expertise, I was able to complete my 100-mile race. His office is exceptionally well-run; I was able to get an appointment quickly, and Leah ensured my therapy referral was sent immediately, so there was no delay in my care. The team’s genuine concern for my progress was evident in their follow-up and support throughout the process. I’m deeply grateful to Dr. Williams and his staff for helping me achieve this milestone.”
