"It is a pleasure to introduce the poster of Ms. Jillian Presser, an excellent student who did her research exploring pre-operation physical therapy for improved recovery. Surgery often is accompanied with rigorous post-surgery rehabilitation. Ms. Presser postulates that physical preparation for surgery would also be of assistance in the recovery process. Ms. Presser’s ex post facto multi-method study is especially important for the therapeutic stakeholders. Her ideas have the potential to change existing protocol for the better. Her review of literature and subsequent discussion sections are outstanding."
