I'm pretty sure this doctor saved my life.
I've been having pain on my right side for three years, but sucked it up, thinking maybe it was due to age and would stretch out.
I was misdiagnosed with sciatica three times, not only did Erik diagnose the problem, but he also fixed it right away.
Still need time to strengthen and heal, but I'm not feeling any pain for the first time in years.
Highly recommend.

Erik Hoffman is a wonderful physical therapist. He is extremely through, attentive, patient, explains all and provides a wonderful treatment plan. I will be retuning 3 times a week. I recommend him with high regard.
He eased all of my concerns and I feel physically better,, after my first visit.
Also, the facility is extremely clean, well sanitized, and clients are spaced out. I’m so glad I chose Erik Hoffman.

My treatments have been great. Erik has been attentive & willing to alter my exercises to get better results. My strength has steadily increased & the pain I experienced initially has dissipated considerably.

My experience with Eric Hofman was by far the best experience I have had compared to other physical therapists. Eric was able to accurately identify the cause of my TMJ and neck issues and offer targeted exercises & stretches. I felt like part of a family here at Recovery PT and wished I would continue with my visits, but unfortunately or fortunately, my symptoms improved substatially! Thank you!
