“I had a great experience with this place. I came in with shoulder pain due to overuse and after my first session my shoulder felt drastically better. David and Dr Omar really care and are thorough in explaining and also making sure your treatment is done right. Last but certainly not least, speaking to France at the front desk to schedule (or reschedule) my appointment has always been nothing short of a pleasure. I now type this free of my shoulder pain. I am very grateful and highly recommend this place for physical therapy.”

My first visit with Omar.. He was very respectful and polite. I showed him my x-rays and he explained everything in detail to me, which my doctors did not do. So, now I have a better understanding about my illness. I walked into the facility limping due to pain. Walked out without the limp and less pain. Much gratitude to you, Omar. Keep up the good work!
