“Base PT is the best PT I have ever been to. Go here if you are serious about getting better. They provide 1:1 sessions, really listen and react to feedback, and create a clear program for recovery. ”

I have been suffering from shoulder-neck pain for 4 years and have been to multiple physical therapists and other treatment with no improvement. Nina was the only one that helped me improve my neck range of motion , reduce the level of pain and improve my posture over all. Highly recommended.

Dr. Loaca is my miracle MD. Prior to seeing her I had seen a chiropractor, a different PT, an Orthopedic MD. After just three visits I was so much better and now I am doing extremely well. She takes care of the entire person not just one section. She is thorough in her diagnosis and treatment plan and is a wonderful human being to boot! Friendly, informative and very sympathetic. I have recommended her to family and friends.

Nina was friendly, warm and professional from the assessment session.
She knows exactly what is she talking about and does everything she can to help the progress.
I am a professional dancer and educator in NYC and Nina has been incredible with the treatment she is giving me. She always answer all my questions and every email I send with questions and concerns.
I highly recommend her, I have been treated by other professionals before but never with this quality.

Nina is the best in class for PT. I had an ACL reconstruction surgery and barely can move my leg and even not able to bend my leg. Her vast experience help me to specifically target the problem and help my recovery tremendously. I was able to walk slowly after 1.5weeks and after 1 month i can bend my leg to almost normal/functional degree. Now i am fully recovered and can do running again. I hope i can go back to my marathon race soon. She cares a lot about my recovery and her bedside manner is 100pct awesome. Thanks Nina for all your help so i can achieve full recovery. I totally recommend her for all my family and friends.
