UOA patient Rob Cavanaugh of West Long Branch was interviewed by the Asbury Park Press after he placed second in the 35th annual Belmar Five Johnny Cobb Memorial Run on Saturday, July 9—a noteworthy accomplishment given that Rob suffered an Achilles injury in March 2010 that kept him from running for a long stretch. He credits his recovery to UOA’s Dr. Charles Gatt, Jr., who performed Achilles tendon surgery on Rob less than one year ago.
“I am grateful to Dr. Gatt for everything he did to get me back running on a competitive level,” says Rob, who plans on participating in the remainder of the 2011 Jersey Shore Grand Prix races.
