Dr. Madison provided a new perspective to strength my knees and legs. He is very patient, thorough, and knowledgeable. He also gave me homework to repeat the exercises he and his assistant did with me.

Michael was great. He took the time to carefully listen to me. He started by giving me different exercises to test my strength and understand the extent of my injury, so that he can put together the best plan for me to recover asap. By the end of the session, we decided on the path forward and I already have several of my next sessions planned. I am super excited to work with Michael and get back to 100% of my physical ability.

Just had meniscus repair surgery and was feeling very nervous about PT. As soon as I was in the PT space, I knew it was a great choice. Everyone was kind, helpful, and professional. Michael Mancuso was exactly what I hoped for in a PT- clearly experienced, highly trained, understood the nuances of working with a post op client, and a genuinely kind and caring person. I am grateful to have found him and this group, and trust I will come through this with a great outcome.

Awesome! Very informative, gave me a ton of information to work with and I felt improvement after first visit (patellar tendinitis)
November 3, 2025Sylvain M.Verified patient
The best physical therapy experience that I’ve had in my life. Instead of just numerous workouts throughout the session, the issue I had was actually addressed, and I saw real improvement after each visit.
October 13, 2025Fabrizio L.Verified patient
Michael is the best Physical Therapist I have ever seen. He is an attentive listener and not only supported my long term goals, but was present in every session and adapted to what I needed in the moment, encouraging me to listen to my body and really understand the healing work I was doing. I cannot recommend him enough!
July 30, 2025Alyssa V.Verified patient
Friendly, thorough, and patient! Efficiently explained my weaknesses, my strengths, and my next steps in ways that I actually understood. The exercises he assigned me are definitely helping as well. They didn’t pressure me into making excessive appointments, and the person at the front desk was so kind. Fantastic experience
