What Our Community Is Saying
“Every aspect of this physical therapy business is outstanding, from the employees and patient care to the facility. Making appointments, checking in, changing appointments, payment — it’s all easy and done with a smile. The center is large, clean, and comfortable. The technicians who help patients through their PT sessions are friendly, positive, and caring. But the best part is the progress I showed working with Ted Carter. I play tennis several times a week and was having issues with my knees. He truly cared about helping me heal and tried various exercises and modalities to ensure that my problems would be resolved. He listened and didn’t stick with something if it didn’t seem to help, but changed course to find the best methods. I was surprised how much better my knees felt after working with Ted for less than two months. He is a knowledgable professional you can trust with your health.”

“Today was my last day of physical therapy. It was bitter sweet, because I went to this facility for both my foot and my shoulder post-surgery; same facility, same therapist. I made sure to tell my therapist, Erica, that she changed my life because she absolutely did. They all did; Sarah, Richie, Godfrey, and Lauren at the front desk, all of them professional and caring. I never felt like “just some patient” but I genuinely felt like we all got to know each other as people. On some days, when my motivation wasn’t high, the techs were there to push me to my limits because they knew what I was capable of even if I complained about it!”

“I have nothing but great things to say about this place! I have seen Both Ted and Erica for different issues. Both are excellent Physical Therapists! Support staff is very helpful and professional. Hopefully, I don’t have a need to go again but will be going back there if I do.”

“This is a great place to get better! Erica was my therapist and was always responsive to my condition and progress. All of the assistants are kind and motivating. The front desk employees were friendly and ready to help also. I would definitely recommend them!”
