What Our Clients Say
Professional Physical Therapy is the absolute best! I received PT services at Professional Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine for my left knee, about 8 years ago. With their professional knowledge, PT and help, that knee has been fine since that time . I am now back for their physical therapy for right knee arthritis. (why would I go anywhere else?) I am more relaxed and comfortable since my first re-visit for the right knee, where I also got information on on how arthritis affects my knee as well as targeted PT.
Dr Pratt and his Legion of PTA’s (Crystal, Sue, Amber & Tracy), assisted by Julia, Anthony & Jackie are all very technologically knowledgeable and experienced in the best Physical Therapy methods to return you to good health.
Their Exercise Programs are both Professional Challenging and understanding of the Patients capabilities. Each Program is uniquely targeted to challenge you to do your best to return to good health and mobility in the shortest time possible. They do so with high energy, dedication and compassion for each Patient under their care.
I also want to recognize the entire staff and complement them on the friendly, warm and family atmosphere created. From the minute you walk in the door you are greeted with a smile by an administration staff who is very attentive to insurance coverages and scheduling. They work closely with each Patient to develop a schedule which works for you.
Thank you all at Professional Physical Therapy for your hard work in strengthening and extending my range of motion in my shoulder and current commitment to accomplishing the same with my new right hip. Together you are very a special group of in the field of professional physical therapy!
Sincerely,
Michael Kelly
