This is a great group to work with regarding physical therapy. Carrie is very welcoming and caring, and nothing gets past Adam. Adam was my therapist and he watches to see that you're doing the exercises to the best of your ability, which definitely pays off in the long run. You'll notice... improvement with consistency. And as you improve, the exercises change, so you're not just doing the same thing over and over and over...with no change in sight. No cheating or laziness is allowed. They helped me recover from a broken ankle. My surgeon was very impressed with the healing. I highly recommend this specific location to anyone living and/or working in the Nutley/Belleville/Kearny area. Also, the additional staff is very nice and makes you feel welcome as you rebuild and recover. 45 Franklin Avenue, Nutley. Check them out. Very well worth it!read morerichard C.
Once again, I was pleased with the care I received from the moment I walked in the door until I had finished this session. My Physical Therapist, Dustin was very professional and showed me exactly how to perform each exercise as well as correcting any invalid moves I made during said exercises. His... assistant on this day was a young guy by the name of Diogo and he was very good at what he did as well. Of course, Carrie at the front desk was a pleasant addition to this seamless team. I would highly recommend this particular office for complete Physical Therapy needs. Richread moreAimy R.
Dustin and his colleagues run a friendly, professional, and detail oriented physical therapy office. I came there after an ACL injury to complete PT before and after my surgery. Dustin, as the clinical director, completed my initial evaluation. He is thorough and spends one on one time with me... during all my sessions. I receive feedback throughout all my exercises and feel individually cared for even if others are in session around me. His colleagues Charlaine and Christina who help during exercises are also knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. Carrie is a charismatic and kind receptionist. Dustin runs an evidenced based physical therapy practice that is fun and enjoyable to go to. He pushes you in the right places to further your recovery and I saw results during my pre-hab before ACL surgery and look forward to continue the work post surgery. I highly recommend them.read moreChrysa P.

VERY positive experience! I started with a lot of shoulder pain. The program Adam designed reduced the pain significantly and increased shoulder mobility. He always challenged me to do more than I thought I could. Flexible appointment times. The staff is stellar! Many thanks to Adam, Dustin,... Rowy, Charlene and Carrie. SO nice to not be in constant pain! I highly recommend them.read moreScott M.
Adam is one of the best physical therapists I’ve ever worked with. He took the time to explain each exercise I did in great detail and to tell me why we were doing each exercise.

My experience was excellent !read moreChelsea F.
My favorite physical therapy location I've tried! Adam, especially, is the BEST! He has a lot of great exercise ideas and things that I hadn't tried at previous PT's, and it has helped with my lower back pain tremendously. There's no cheating or getting away with anything with him, and he really... helps you understand the why of the exercises and how it'll help your pain. Carrie at the front desk is awesome and very accommodating! Lastly, I appreciate how hands on everyone is. I've been to other PT places before and it felt like they were so overbooked I couldn't get hands on experience, but I've not had that experience here. 10/10 recommend!read moreKaren D.
Excellent physical therapists. Professional, very knowledgeable, and personable. I injured my arm/shoulder and the orthopedist was concerned about how much mobility I would regain. At my last appointment he was extremely pleased with my progress. Thank you very much to Adam (and Dustin too),... assistant Charlene, and Carrie at front desk. If you need physical therapy, this is your place.read moreSarah H.

The entire staff at the Nutley location are the best. I went twice a week, and with the exercises and guidance, my strength (with less pain) returned with no issues. Thank you, Dustin, Charlene, Kerry, and Tom, for all your assistance and helpYou are indeed valuable. Katherine L.
I highly recommend Dustin at Professional PT! He is skilled, realistic, compassionate and effective. I unfortunately broke my ankle at 35 weeks pregnant, and he was able to do home visits to help me get back on my feet before the baby came. Each session he carefully helped push me a little further... to build my mobility and confidence, and gave me exercises to do on my own. The whole staff at Professional PT was wonderful as well.read moreBrandon Balingit (Bloodshot W.
I cannot thank everyone at Professional Physical Therapy enough. I’ve been to other PT offices in the past ; and this was, by far, the best experience I’ve had. Everyone was so friendly/funny, and it was like a small family there. I’ve been in offices where people barely even talk to you.... Literally! But, here, everyone is laughing, sharing stories, and just having a good time. More importantly, the work that was done on my shoulder was amazing. The variety and quality of exercises really broke ground for my recovery. I’ve been dealing with my shoulder issue for a long time now. And it’s very frustrating when you feel like you’re not getting better. It wasn’t until I started going here, that I really started seeing my progress, and ultimately, recovery. Huge thank you to Roman! He truly turned my life around. The therapists (Roman and Dustin), the assistants….everyone was so good and on top of everything. Well-oiled machine over here! And don’t let me forget Carrie at the front desk. She is very good at what she does. She is hilarious and seriously one of the coolest people around! I hope I won’t need to see all of you again lol.. but if I ever suffer another injury, I know where I’m going! Thank you guys!!!!read moreIsabella D.
This is a great physical therapy office, the staff is awesome, very friendly and helpful. They really help you learn what you need to heal and maintain that.

Couldn’t recommend Dustin and the rest of his team more highly!read moreStephen C.
I cannot begin to express how excellent everyone is at Professional Physcial Therapy. I have had the pleasure of being a patient of Dustin twice, once after an elbow surgery, and the second after foot and ankle surgery.

Everyone at the office wants the best for the patients and is willing to work with anyone’s schedule to get you in. I cannot recommend Dustin and everyone at Professional Physical Therapy enough. 10/10 recommend.read moreErick V.
The quality of care provided at Professional PT is unmatched.

I have been going to the Nutley clinic located on Franklin Ave for four months now. I had surgery done on my L knee ACL and meniscus and go to Professional Physical Therapy for rehabilitation. I work mostly with Dr. Elizabeth Sanatar who is fantastic. After working with her and observing the floor... I am impressed with her impeccable bedside manner. She is well educated and takes time to break down the recovery process answering all questions and always wants what is best for her clients. I always look forward going in there. The clinic is clean, well-organized, and most importantly LGBTQ friendly. I have never had an issue when my partner accompanies me to treatment. We are treated with respect and dignity which has sometimes been an issue for my partner and I at other practices. Her staff also carries the same qualities and values. They are kind, caring, considerate and greet you with a friendly demeanor. This clinic is also flexible and will work with your schedule, it does not matter if you go during the day or at night, they are a solid team. I cannot thank them enough.read moreSheena S.
I was prescribed PT by my doctor and took a chance on Professional Physical Therapy based on options that my insurance accepted and I could not be happier with my results! Dr. Sanatar, Joe, Al, Tom and all the other members of staff at this location were really friendly and professional as well as... knowledgeable. I had therapy for lower back/sciatic issues and at my first appointment I had extreme difficulty moving and walking. Dr. Liz listened to all of my concerns and gave me a very thorough evaluation and talked me through the course of treatment I would receive. It has now been a little over 3 months and I have seen a huge improvement in my mobility and suffer very little pain if any at all. As my sessions progressed, so did the exercises/stretches I was given and on days where maybe I was feeling a little stiff or sore we would adapt my program and then revisit during my next appointment. I have completed my course of therapy now and with the exercises I have learned plus the out-patient exercise program I have been provided I really feel like I have been set up for success. I know that if I ever have any issues I can always go back even without a prescription. During this time of limited social interaction, I have seen the staff here more than my friends and family and I will definitely miss their positive attitudes and friendly conversation! I would 100% recommend this location in Nutley (next to the bakery and carwash).read moreCngash (.
