I have had a bad knee for a few years, Clint has always kept me in the game. World class guy.

At the end of 2016, I was in a severe auto accident and suffer a crushed C7 vertabre and TBI. After 4 months of a neck brace after surgery, Clint and his world class staff was ready for me. Neurologically I may never be 100% but in 21 months they have me back to where I feel optimistic that I may be able to get back into the game.

From Clint, Tracey, to Seth (whom I have seen mainly the past year and in love with his elbow on my back. He has turned me into a screamer ), to Tammy and Ruth at the desk, to Michelle, Craig, Patrick, and Paul, and all the students or part time employees for giving me a great workout and getting me back into the game!

10-10-18 update..A big shout out to The Master Clint Verran. I’ve been back into the game of running for 5-6 weeks and built up to 30 miles in the last week of October. With a bad left knee and not much meniscus on the medial side of it alpng with the fact I have a wider gate to accomodate my balance issues, my knee began to get tender unless I ran with traffic on the right side of a crowned road. I scheduled a visit with Clint after my normal therapy with Seth, and Clint made me a pair of customized orthodics that simulated the right side of a crowned road for my left knee. We did a couple 1/2 milers on the treadmill to tune them in and it felt great.

Today I was able to run 6 miles with a 3 mile speed interval workout on a flat surface. Not only did I not feel my left knee during the run and have a more normal stride, it wasn’t sensitive at all the remainder of the day walking around barefoot or with regular street shoes.

Thank you again Clint Verran Sports Medicine for your professional, competent, and dedication to my recovery.

Group runs for all levels, Physical Therapy, and love my inserts!

I have suffered from post tibular tendinitis for over 2.5 years. After physical therapy, orthotics made for my running shoes, and trying anti-inflammatory creams and scripts, nothing worked. Then someone referred me to Clint. After wearing the custom orthotics he made for me, for 2 weeks, I’m 100% pain free! It’s unbelievable the difference! I’m now training for a half marathon. Thank you Clint!

I am writing to express how happy I’ve been with the orthotics you made for me in June, 2006.
I am a 41 year old woman who never ran a day in her life. As a newbie, I started running in May, 2006 after a friend and veteran of the sport suggested I would probably love it. Two weeks before I turn 41, I decide I have got to get this body in shape and learn what is “so wonderful” about running! So off I go – purchase my first pair of Nike running shoes and start running on a high ankle sprain that I previously got in March. It hurt. I had no endurance and no stamina and that high ankle sprain was constantly barking at me! I was referred to you for orthotics and thought I’d better find out how you could help me. After 1 week with running on your orthotics, I no longer heard that left high ankle sprain barking at me. The orthotics have balanced out my gait, pain free, and have helped me to run – and to love it!

On Sept 16, 2006, I finished my FIRST 5K in Pentwater, Michigan. I couldn’t believe I finished. And to my surprise, I finished 2 nd in my age group! What an accomplishment for me. I couldn’t have done in without my orthotics. I tell EVERYONE they need your orthotics, whether they run or not.

I’d like to thank you for taking such special care in fitting me for my orthotics and for giving me everything I needed to learn to love this sport. It is sincerely appreciated.
