Very pleasant & clean facility, personnel always very cordial. My Therapist, Don, always punctual, very patient, friendly, immediately put me at ease. My problem was w/my foot & leg. During my initial evaluation he took his time to understand exactly what sort of pain I was feeling where t/pain was. He set up a very good program of exercises & made sure I did them correctly so that I could continue them at home. During each visit he would re - evaluate & add additional exercises. He was always available for any questions/concerns. Under Don's care, my problems have finally ceased. I still incorporate these exercises into my daily routine. Don is the best! He is caring, loves his job, is excellent a and it shows! I highly recommend him.
Don took all the time necessary to explain the procedure, answered all my questions, showed me exactly what to do, watched me replicate his instructions. He was patient, and extremely clear of what I needed to do. I highly recommend DON as an excellent practitioner of his craft.

This was my first experience with a physical therapist and Don was great. He made sure I understood what was wrong with my knee and what I would have to do for me to get better. Don was super knowledgeable and gave me tons of exercises to do in the clinic and at home and he always answered any questions I had by email really quickly. In the end, I left PT pain-free, knowing that I had a great new knowledge of how to keep myself healthy thanks to Don.
I was extremely satisfied with Don's treatment. He was in tune with my expectations, needs and concerns. He was always adjusting on the fly to any issue I had or any discomfort I was feeling. He worked meticulously to fix every creak and pop I felt while recovering from my second ankle surgery. His program of strengthening got me back to 100% within 5 months which was right on the doctors schedule. Thank you DON!!
Don is expertemely professional and thorough. He understands the aspects of the human body that can benefit from physical therapy. He is very attentive to the needs of his patients and a good listner. I always feel much better after my sessions with him.
I am very pleased with the therapy that I am receiving at Spears. My therapist's name is Donald Zerio. He is excellent. Don is very hands on, watching me to make sure that I am doing my exercises properly to ensure a good outcome. I am happy with the progress I have made. I would highly recommend Don to anyone needing PT.
