Kevin is an outstanding physical therapist. From the very first visit, he has been kind, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my recovery. He takes the time to explain every exercise, listens to my concerns, and always encourages me to keep making progress.What I appreciate most is... that he treats his patients with compassion and respect. He never rushes appointments and always makes sure I understand what we’re working on and why. His positive attitude and expertise have made a difference in my healing.I highly recommend Kevin, Angie, and Ally to anyone looking for a physical therapist who truly cares about their patients and is dedicated to helping them regain strength, mobility, and confidence.

What a great team! The professional staff here are all so talented and dedicated. They know their stuff for sure! I’m already gaining flexibility in my injured knee (a long standing issue) after only a handful of visits so far. Kevin is amazing! But the other therapists are also all so experienced... and talented. They work beautifully together as a team. And they are also very encouraging and kind as an added bonus! The place has a great vibe, warm and welcoming.read more
Denise B.
My experience at Professional Physical Therapy has been nothing but amazing! The staff is kind , compassionate, and knowledgeable. I came in with a slight tear in my shoulder in pain and inability to function. Through their expertise and care I can say I have very little pain and can function... easily in my day to day activities. I have had the pleasure of having Steven, Kevin and Angie and support staff attend to me and all have been excellent. The facility is calm and inviting. It is always a pleasure to arrive with hearty hellos and lively conversations! I would recommend going to Professional without reservation!read more

I have been coming to the center for the last two years on and off and the care, consideration and competency is way above par. I particularly like Kevin who goes out of his way to make sure everything is perfect for me. I can't say enough great things about this facility Sincerely, Peter Dodge
Selina N.
Aleko, Kevin, and Steven in Norwalk are, without question, the best physical therapists I’ve ever experienced. Their incredible knowledge, endless patience, and genuinely great sense of humor made all the difference in my total knee replacement recovery. Because of them, I progressed faster than I... ever expected.They create a relaxed, welcoming, and truly supportive environment where every patient feels cared for and encouraged. You never feel rushed—only motivated and confident. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.read more
Mark S.
Highly recommend. The entire team led by Aleko and Kevin are outstanding to work with. The atmosphere and culture is extremely friendly and professional. I was coming off both spinal surgery and drop foot. The team has been working hard to get me back on the golf course. After about 4 months, my... back is almost 100%. My drop foot has a ways to go before it’s 100% but they have done an excellent job of working me hard and managing my expectations.read more

Superb experience! I’ve had many P/T stints over the years, and by far this has been the best: very friendly and comfortable atmosphere, highest quality care with thoroughly knowledgeable practitioners, and considerate care based on my needs and limitations.

I have used Kevin through 2:hip surgeries now & he is fantastic. I am showing remarkable improvement, I do my exercises at home & am very happy. It is also just a plain nice place to be.
Steve S.
I am so grateful for the exceptional physical therapy services I received after my total knee replacement. From the moment I began my sessions, my PT Kasandra Guthrie was highly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs. She took the time to explain each exercise and its purpose,... ensuring I understood how it would help with my recovery. The personalized care and support I received made all the difference—my progress was steady, and I regained strength and mobility faster than I expected. The team was always encouraging and motivated me to push my limits in a safe and effective way. Thanks to Kasandra's expertise, I feel confident in my recovery and am now able to enjoy daily activities pain-free! I highly recommend Professional Physical Therapy !read more

I have been to Professional Physical Therapy and find them to be knowledgeable, caring, and extremely professional. I would definitely recommend them.
Michael M.
Kevin and Aleko have been very easy to work with and explain everything we are doing. Nice environment. I would absolutely recommend them.
Redd E.
These people are fantastic. They have already helped me, and I just started! They are gentle and compassionate with the patients, friendly and kind. That's exactly what I was hoping for. The attention you get is great, too.☆☆☆☆☆ Five stars, all around!
Jason D.
Kevin and Aleko helped me immensely. They provided excellent care in the clinic and a variety of exercises to find what was right for me. They also made 7 AM PT sessions fun.
William D.
I’ve never received care as attentive and thoughtful for injuries in my life. I have seen real progress and the diagnosis and routine have been the most effective I’ve received and I’ve been through endless routines of anti-inflammatory meds and PT in the past, this is the best help I’ve received... for my ailments in my life. Also extremely friendly and accommodating and went above and beyond consistently. Thank you for great support!read more
Kostas P.
I've been dealing with severe lower back pain and sciatica. After a single visit with Dr Aleko my mobility increased and the pain although not gone has been diminishing rapidly. I'm going to continue treatment and lean on this team to get back to full health.They've got a great facility with the... ability to treat patients using a variety of methods. In one visit I was treated with a heating pad and electric stimulation. This made the pain manageable so that I could perform stretches and exercises provided by Dr. Aleko and his team. After that, they treated me with dry needling which is similar to acupuncture. I'm no Dr. but the staff explained to me that unlike acupuncture dry needling is done at the source of the pain to reduce inflammation rather than at pressure points.The biggest draw for me is the cleanliness and the atmosphere. Dr. Aleko and his team made sure all the surfaces I came in contact with were cleaned and prepped between patients. Physical therapy can be a challenge physically when your pain is severe. The team atmosphere amongst the staff and patients helps keep your mind positive so you can work through whatever treatment they recommend.I can't thank you guys enough for helping me through an injury that has kept me out of work and hindered my focus.I recommend anyone suffering from chronic or acute pain pays this place a visit. Give them a shot and stop living with pain.read more
Kevin M.
Kevin and the whole staff there are totally committed to helping each and every individual client to get back on their feet. They accomplish this in a relaxed, yet professional environment. Upbeat, motivating, and always positive. Highly recommend!
John K.
Kevin in the Norwalk site was absolutely fantastic. I just had a total knee replacement and Kevin helped me work harder to move my knee than I could on my own and pushed me for increased flexibility and strength without overdoing it or causing pain I could not tolerate. I strongly recommend him!
Julia S.
I had a great experience with Professional Physical Therapy in Norwalk! I did dry needling for a few months throughout the summer which significantly helped my athletic performance. The staff is kind, fun to be around, and they create a welcoming environment for all patients.
Rosemarie B.
The staff is knowledgeable and professional. I feel better after each visit and the timeline they predicted for my recovery was spot on. I have been to many different physical therapy places while living in NY and by far this facility is superior.
Santiago M.
Norwalk PT went above and beyond to get me back running/playing soccer at a quicker pace than expected. They were flexible with my scheduling and I picked them out driving from New York, for their expertise. Both Aleko & Cyn-thia were great in getting me in and out promptly every session, as well... as coordinating my rehab outside of the clinic. Highly recommend! they cut down my recovery time about 3 weeks and I was able to make my alumni game with no issues!read more

The staff at Professional Physical Therapy are amazing. On my first visit after hip replacement surgery, I could not even do a lift with the injured leg. By the time I completed my treatment, I could get it as high as the uninjured leg. They were very knowledgeable and explained the reasoning... throughout the process which was extremely helpful for my recovery. They spent a lot of time with me during the hour treatment. It was a great experience for me and they were instrumental in my recovery. Thanks to all of the staff. Your help is much appreciated.read more
