Dr. Samantha lui has been working on my left shoulder after a double rotator cuff tears 5 months ago and at same time has been working on my knee after a cyst removal behind the knee and so far Dr. Sam has been doing an outstanding job on both the knees and shoulders. My right shoulder has so far I would say 85% better and mobility has been doing better than I expected. This is great. Working with Dr. Sam, one on one, has been nothing short of a wonderful experience on every appt 3x a week. Will continue to go 3x a week until 100%. On top of getting better im experiencing no pain on shoulder just mild weakness which is common after surgery but with continued therapy I know i will regain all my strength through physical therapy.
Going to unity chiropractic has been one of the best choices I ever made and will continue to see Dr. Samantha lui. 5 star.

I have been seeing Dr Samantha lui i believe it's been a month and half at 2 to 3x a week for my knees and legs. Daily tightness and mild pain when walking or going up and down flights of stairs in both knees, thighs, calfs and hamstrings. So far my left knee and leg is 100% better. As for the right knee 90% of the tightness went away but found through MRI I had 2 cysts behind the right knee. After cyst removal will continue Pt with Dr. Sam as well as home excersizes.
Dr. Samantha lui has done an amazing job on both knees and legs so far.
Definitely will continue PT with Dr Sam. Highly recommend Dr. Sam. Excellent physical therapist Dr. Sam.

Sam was very thorough and kind. She listened well to where I was hurting and provided guidance and direction on how to heal better. I liked that she also walked me through what she was doing as she was doing it, teaching me as we went through various exercises and stretches. I like this much better than other physical therapists or chiropractors I have seen before.
Highly recommend.
