“Dr. Williams was very professional. He listened well after asking about my possible symptoms, discomfort and pain threshold. He was accurate and quick with the physical exercises. Despite arriving to my appointment a little late, he still provided me with valuable information and charted everything I stated down. The front desk was also very kinda bf informative. I’m glad I found this office and will recommend this place to many others. I may have to make future changes accessing to my healthcare but I would greatly
recommend attending a visit to Dr. Williams and Optum.”

Awesome PT. I've been moving around a lot the past few months- Dr. Williams is my third and favorite PT. He took a lot of measurements and knew just how much to move my shoulder. Great one-on-one care.

Denzel was very thorough and took his time to answer all the questions I had. He managed to pinpoint the pain in my hip as well as potential causes. The exercises he prescribed seem to be alleviating the issue. Overall great experience.
