This textbook is easy to read, with well-placed text boxes and many illustrations. Photographs and line drawings are used in good combination to complement the text and illustrate the techniques described.

Customer Reviews

This is an outstanding reference of rehabilitation protocols
Clinical Orthopedic Rehabilitation offers numerous protocols for specific injuries and surgical techniques. It is an excellent supplement to basic rehabilitation books. Information on the basic principles of rehabilitation is limited but it a great tool for an experienced certified athletic trainer or physical therapist to use in developing and implementing protocols. It is also written and referenced by leaders in the field of orthopedics, offering a few different protocols for each injury/surgical technique discussed.

Awesome orthopedic reference
This book is an awesome reference for outpatient rehab progression. Provides conservative through aggresive rehab protocols. Allows for comparison of various protocols

Congratulations Brent & Kevin!!! A really excellent work!
The new edition 2003 of this book compared with the old one of 1996, has a lot of new chapters in rehabilitation with a lot of photos of rehabilitation exercises and methods writting by an excellent, well - known physical therapist Kevin Wilk. It covers a lot of topics in modern Orthopaedic rehabilitation. With personal experiences of 25 years treating patients, I recomend this book to all Physical Therapists in Greece!!!
