Over the past few years, as a result of elbow, hip, and back injuries, I've worked with all three therapists there Krystina, Devon, and most recently, Thangam, who helped me return my back to normal. All three have been great - friendly, knowledgeable, and prepared to put in the effort to ensure they fix what's not working. Highly recommend.

Response from the owner:Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your positive message. We're glad you had a great experience and our team was able to provide you with the care you needed.

These guys are great. For many, starting physical therapy can be a daunting challenge, almost a reminder of their injuries. For me, that was the case. However, when I walked in, I was immediately greeted by friendly and likable staff. My personal therapist was Rob (great guy) but I still managed to get along with everyone else. The atmosphere was so inviting that it even managed to make me, an introvert who refuses to talk to new people, want to keep talking to everyone. Andy and Danielle are awesome and would sometimes cover for Rob. Their daily questionnaires definitely make my day! (Although recently Andy has been slacking….) I can’t express how grateful I am to everyone for making me feel so safe and for making me not feel ashamed of my injury :) Might have to break my kneecap again just to see them!

Response from the owner:Grace, thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a positive experience. Our team works hard to provide the best possible care, and it's great to see that it shows.

I like my physical therapist Hannah. She's very patient and kind. She's been very good working with my arthritis in my knee. First time I've gone to PT, and so far it has been a good experience.

Response from the owner:Suzanne, thank you for taking the time to share your positive message. We're glad you had a great experience and our team was able to provide you with the care you needed.
