Jay M.
The best staff and patient care a person could ask for. Farzad and the great people at Star Pro got me on my feet in no time after a really bad calf tear. Great techniques and positive attitudes. I can’t recommend them enough.
Malaak J.
I highly recommend going to StarPro Midtown for physical therapy. I had a very positive experience receiving treatment for my torn achilles tendon. It was a very welcoming environment. When I came to Jonathan back in March, I was in a boot and was in so much pain. Walking was a struggle and it took... a toll on my confidence. Jonathan was very nice and created a very personalized approach to my treatment given that I was determined not to do surgery. Throughout my treatment he took the time to answer any questions that I had about my injury and understand my circumstamces. He is very great to work with and he always made sure to express to me the progress that I was making. Jonathan, and everyone at StarPro, was very encouraging, and worked on strengthening and challenging me. This was something I really appreciated and built up my self confidence. In addition to Jonathan, I also worked with Farzad a few times, and he also had a very similar, kind approach as Jonathan, and there was also Val who used to provide a lot of great support along the way. Sabrina also was amazing at scheduling my appointments for me. I really enjoyed coming in for my sessions at StarPro and had a lot of fun. I went from my achilles being in pain and being barely able to walk to now being able to walk far more comfortably to a point that I now have transitioned to fully independent physical therapy program. I am far stronger than I was almost a year ago.I'm very thankful for the treatment that I received, and again, highly recommend that anyone with physical therapy needs come to StarPro Midtown.read more

Claire T.
The staff is great. They work together as a team. Very efficient.
Chris Q.
I worked with Alvin, Kelly, and Jonathan (as well as Rahim) and they were all fantastic. They were great about making sure my rehab routine for a SLAP tear in my labrum was constantly changing, adding new exercises each week to gradually improve the strength of my rotator cuff. They also were very... deliberate with their table massages to loosen up the muscles in my shoulder and lat. After four months of rehab, I am completely pain free, even while doing a couple of movements that were always a bit uncomfortable for me throughout most of the four months. I would highly recommend each of these physical therapists, as well as the practice as a whole.read more

In High School, I struggled to determine a career path that I was enthusiastic about. However, having gone through Physical Therapy several times for injuries of my own, I decided to accept an internship with a local outpatient clinic.

Throughout undergraduate, my doctorate, and while working professionally, I have loved being able to expand my knowledge of treatment, and continue to improve my craft. In a continuous pursuit of growth, I even decided to complete an Orthopedic Residency and became a Orthopedic Certified Specialist. Despite being proud of the accolades I have achieved; I continue to seek new ways to improve my abilities as a Physical Therapist.

Bio

After completing my undergraduate studies, I did not know what career path I wanted to pursue. However, I ultimately found my way into physical therapy by shadowing PTs in a hospital setting and working as an aide in an outpatient orthopedic clinic. Being in the clinic every day gave me a real look at the recovery process and led me to pursue my degree in the field. I’ve always found it incredibly rewarding to help people work through the challenges of an injury or ailment. My goal is to work right alongside my patients to bridge the gap between where they are and their prior level of function. There is truly nothing better than seeing someone get their confidence back and return to the activities they love most.
