Dr. DeCook plays Pickleball with some of his current and former patients

Dr. DeCook and his pickle ball patients.

On August 21st, Dr. DeCook and his staff had the opportunity to see the results of their work. There was a lot of laughter and friendly banter. Great shots were made and the focus was on the game and not the former pain. Previous patients at Cresswind were able to show off their skills on a beautiful sunny day in Gainesville. And that is what the focus should be. When joint pain slows you down, there are options to improve your quality of life and return to the activities that you love. Stay active. Stay healthy. And stay out of the (pickleball) kitchen!
