Julie Zapata is a fantastic physical therapist, the best I have ever worked with. I have received tremendous benefit over the course of working with her for the past 2 months. I had intractable pain from back/buttock/hip condition and have seen a variety of therapists over the past decade without real benefit. The hour spent with Julie included astute, diagnostics, custom tailored exercise , and hands on work, all administered with careful attention, compassion and humor. Working with her was a pleasure. I continue to use what i learned from her in my home regimen and continue to make progress I can’t recommend her strongly enough.

Julie is one of the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with. I have knee, foot and shoulder issues some of which have been long standing. Julie’s care has enabled me to live a fuller, less painful life. I can not recommend her highly enough. I don’t know where I would be without her.

Julie spends the full hour with just you. None of this new client every 15-20 minutes that most PT offices do. Using different modalities, Julie helped me strenthen my core, while also strengthening my legs and arms, which helped lenghten and straighten my posture, and I am no longer dependebt on walking with a cane! Very personal approach, attention to detail, and sees you as yu ou are with no judgement.
