“Dr. Juan is extremely knowledgeable and patient. He listens to how I feel and gives me a personalized workout every time. Not just the same exercises over and over. I have seen a great improvement in my chronic pain issue and mobility since I began therapy. I had been to many PT’s prior to this but his method has worked best for me. Also the manual therapy is a huge plus that other people don’t spend as much time on and it really makes a difference. I feel that Dr. Juan genuinely cares about getting you to feel better. I strongly recommend Top Choice. ”

Hope I can walk in a month

Juan and Rachel are both very knowledgeable and they have helped me make tremendous progress with my ankle injury. I never wait and the exercises are doable and effective. They adjust their treatment for how I am feeing or my pain level. I would never go anywhere else. I trust them completely.

Top Choice Physical Therapy has really friendly staff that are very attentive to your needs. Juan was very friendly and listened to how exactly I have been feeling and what I felt were my needs while also making his own assessments on what would be the best course of action. I’m looking forward to future sessions with Juan at Top Choice.

I had initial pain in range of 7-8 out of 10. At the end its 4-5, which is good improvement. I was given wide ranges of exercises and with high intesity which helped build my muscle.

When I came to Top Choice I only came because a friend who is a Physical Therapist recommended me. The first thing I told Dr. Nunez during eval was "I am here because my friend but I made my mind up. I am having back surgery!" That was years ago and still no back surgery thank to Dr. Nunez. I came in regularly for check-ups, but I feel great!

I am a young cancer survivor with multiple joint damage and a recent total hip replacement; Dr. Núñez was very considerate with planning a course of rehab for me. Within weeks, I went from barely standing to climbing stairs! Sincere therapist with pleasant staff and clean facilities.
Looking forward to improving my shoulder next!

Dr. Nunez came highly recommended to me by a friend a few years back after I had thrown out my back. He was incredible in his knowledge and treatment, as well as keeping me healthy, strong, and moving forward even after I had "graduated." When I ran into more back issues during the pandemic, I knew the best place to get treatment was Top Choice. I was treated by Ariel who lived up to the high standards that Dr. Nunez has set. I appreciate his approach and care to my unique situation, and his understanding of my goals in getting better and moving forward once I'm out of his care. I now feel comfortable visiting with either Dr. Nunez or Dr. Castro (Ariel), as they both always do an amazing job and have me leaving feeling better than I did when I first arrived. Both facilities are pristine and feel safe, they are both filled with wonderful staff!

I love coming here. I'm so happy I made the right choice. The patients that doc has with me & explaining every stretch and everything happening is really impressive.

Juan and the staff at the office are incredible. The level of attention you get as a patient is unparalleled. I have been going to Top Choice for years after going to many other PTs who were not as good, because of their holistic approach to injury and pain management and the level of attention they give their patients. Juan and his team listen to your goals and get you there. Highly recommend could not be happier with Juan as my go to PT and Top Choice overall!
