What Our Clients Say
PROFESSIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY DOES AN AMAZING JOB WITH THE PROGRAM THAT THEY HAVE USED ON ME EACH TIME I HAVE HAD TO GO TO THEM. I HAVE HAD 3 Back surgeries and I have gone to them each time. They know what they are doing and each time I left after treatment I was completely satisfied with the outcome. I recommend them very highly. The staff at ProPt are like family to me. I have been seeing them for many many years as I have been dealing with various physical issues from back injuries to knee injuries. The latest being another knee injury. They got my range of motion back and focussed on strengthening exercises at home to give me more lateral stability and strength. No one likes going to PT, but this staff knows their stuff and pushes you to get better while having some fun at the same time. The front desk does an excellent job scheduling clients and even reminding those clients that have busy schedules (like me) that you have an appointment the next day. Best medical staff I have every dealt with.
