I highly recommend to contact the practice directly as the information on Zocdoc is not aligned with their practice. On Zocdoc is stated the practice is in network with my insurance but upon arrival I was notified that they are out of network. I ended up paying a higher copay. :(

Very attention, explains well each exercise that I needed for my shoulder and willing to see me sooner if a client cancel their session prior to my appointment. In addition, I have noticed a great improvement in my range of motion in my left shoulder.
Verified patient
I've been having a lot of shoulder and neck pain and James was able to put my shoulder blade back in the right position. I feel so much better and he is helping me with another injury and I finally feel like I'm on the right track.
Verified patient
The facility is professional and helpful, and I'm always seen right away; sometimes if I'm early, he'll even see me then. James explains everything clearly, and I've seen a lot of improvement over the visits. He's knowledgeable and clear, and understanding: I really wanted to go surfing after tearing my MCL, and he helped me make good decisions and encouraged me to take things slowly, without telling me what to do. I'm impressed.

Excellent is confortable very good

Great.
Very professional/competency level high.
First rate. I've been seeing physical therapist for various conditions for about ten years. James is the best I've seen in the past three years, one of the two other best in this year! He is knowledgeable, skilled, caring, friendly, well prepared, clear in his instructions, very effective.
I love working with James! He is the ideal therapist - very challenging but also very kind. I also love "Recovery". It's quiet and relaxing as well as stimulating!
Extremely pleased. James is knowledgeable, patient, professional, empathetic. I highly recommend him. Also, the facility is modern, clean, well equipped.
Outstanding and most constructive visit. James is knowledgeable, creative and sensitive to the special needs of an older patient. Thanks to him I am making speedy post-surgery progress. Highly recommend him and RPT.
Good visit, I am making improvements and learning how to do things at home that help with increasing mobility as well as flexibility.
I've been coming to PT after having hip surgery. My therapist has been attentive to my needs and adjusts my sessions to how I'm feeling. He's very thorough with all my exercises for recovery. I've been very impressed with how I've improved week to week and highly reccomed him.
Very helpful. James is knowledgable and excellent in zeroing in on the problem & finding excersizes that work & massaging the injured area.
