My name is Larry Dormer and I started going to the MEDGYM in the Winter of 2023, after a fall in a store. I fractured my right wrist and hip prosthesis from a previous hip replacement. I was an inpatient at Chambersburg Hospital for 5 days after two surgeries. It was very difficult maneuvering myself as I had limited use of the right arm and hand and right leg.

I was also very anxious that I was going to fall again. I knew I needed more help as I was having issues with balance, tremendous anxiety about falling again, and limited strength. I kept looking online for a gym that would give me more attention to my needs and, low and behold, I came across the MEDGYM. With Kade’s personalized exercise program and compassion, I have made significant progress with strength in my legs, and most importantly, confidence in my balance. I can pick things off the floor with minimal issues and I have the strength to do normal activities that used to be difficult. 

I continue to work with Kade at the MEDGYM, because it enhances my quality of life and improves my activities of daily living.  Thank you Kade and the whole MEDGYM staff for their expertise and willingness to go the extra mile to make us feel supported and strong.
