My plantar fasciitis was treated at the 84th Street location by professionals Sean and Eric to my satisfaction. I highly recommend this clinic.

I have been going to professional PT at the 84th st and 2nd ave location for a good part of the past 20 months to treat injuries such as MCL arthroscopy, shoulder impingement and herniated discs on the lower back.The therapists I have worked more closely with are Rebecca and Eric. They are great... in breaking down the exercises that will not only help you heal your injury but also build automatization and muscle memory in order for those movements to be done normally on a daily basis. Rebecca and Eric, along with all of the other professionals here are people that deeply care about what they do, going out of their way to fully explain the reasoning of each of the exercises that are on your exercise sheet in each of your visits!I highly recommend this practice!read more

My therapist at professional PT was Rebecca and assistant Eric . I highly recommend her. She is personable, flexible, makes sure all exercises are done correctly and are in line with your ability and goals. There are plenty of options here for getting results including gym machines and standard... array of PT equipment - exercise balls, balance props etc. The place is clean, well-run, has a good app for reminders of appts etc. This is the best PT experience of 3 that I've had in recent years. It will definitely be my go-to for PT if needed in the futureread more

I am very pleased with the center. The staff, including Sean, Eric, and Rebecca are some of the most welcoming and knowledgeable therapists I've had. They invest in your recovery and are always prepared. They have tons of clients, but every time I walk in I feel as if I'm the only one. It's an... uplifting and comfortable atmosphere, and they do a great job of keeping it clean and safe as well.read more

Exceptional experience at Professional PT! Sean Sullivan is the best PT I have ever worked with. He meets you where you are in your recovery and helps you make noticeable progress with each session. He is dedicated to each patient and really cares about their experience and outcome. I have noticed... that other PTs in the practice have the same attitude and dedication as Sean. This was my second surgery and the recovery from this one compared to the first one was 100% better all thanks to Sean!read more

Ben Gelfand has expert knowledge and deep experience. His holistic help with my hips has been invaluable. Professional PT makes it easy to schedule, and their facilities are clean, with enough room to keep socially distanced from others. Staff are friendly. I highly recommend!
