I was a patient with PPT of Princeton for couple of months. Dean Linkroum is awesome. He was so knowledgeable, and attentive to my recovery. Follow up and exercises are easy to follow.The whole clinic is super friendly — would highly recommend! Stephanie J.
Went for a shoulder injury and Dean was a delight to work with. Very convenient hours and easy to schedule; Dean and the aides are friendly and professional, and the therapy and exercises produced great results. I don't wish to ever need PT again but would happily come back here if necessary. Michele Aldin K.
I was referred to PPT by an orthopedic surgeon and I am so thankful. Dean and his team are awesome. He was so knowledgeable, and attentive to my recovery. Follow up and exercises are easy to follow. I highly recommend this Princeton Office. Stephanie W.
I was treated for issues relating to TMJ and my neck. Jake Powell was my therapist and created a great plan for my treatment. I feel great!He is warm, knowledgeable and responsive. He is patient and really listens to what is going on.I highly recommend him. Alex P.
Dean Linkroum has been working wonders on me since 2020. From my hamstring to my lower back to my knee, he has provided thoughtful and effective therapy and exercises to help me heal so that I can get back to my favorite activities: hiking, biking and racquet sports. Professional PT lives up to its... name. It is a pleasant and clean space, the employees take pride in working there, and everything runs smoothly and on time. I highly recommend both Dean and Professional PT.read moreHolly W.
I had some serious back issues when I arrived at Dean's office. He very patiently and carefully put me on a stretch and exercise regime that has helped be get back to 100%. He was thorough, knowledgeable and professional. I give him high marks! Thank you, Dean! Bobby B.
I have been a patient with PPT of Princeton since 2021 and Dean Linkroum has been a blessing, I refuse to see anyone else. He is gifted in his knowledge and ability, their has not been a question that he could not answer or a technique that he couldn’t teach me so that i am able to understand... and repeat it at home. He is patient and willing to help you in anyway but also honest enough to let you know whether he thinks you should continue treatments but he leaves the choice up to you. That’s a Pro. My back is feeling better and stronger thanks to Dean and if i ever need any therapy ever again I am running to Princeton and Dean and I recommend him to anyone that is in need of physical therapy you won’t be disappointed. They are a top notch organization from receptionist to therapists, kind and respectful. So if you are ever in need of physical therapy do yourself a favor and give them a try, you won’t regret it.read moreSubhadeep M.
I had been struggling with severe pain in my neck, shoulders, and down my arm, and it was impacting my daily life. When I started seeing Krina at Professional Physical Therapy in Princeton, she quickly diagnosed the issue and developed a treatment plan tailored to my needs. Over the course of three... months, she worked with me through a combination of gentle exercises and light massage, gradually increasing the intensity of exercises as my injury healed. Krina’s expertise and personalized care made all the difference. My pain level, which started at a 9/10, is now completely gone. I can't thank Krina enough for her dedication and skill. I highly recommend Krina and Professional Physical Therapy for anyone in need of rehab or pain relief!read moreAida Q.
I’ve been to several PT places throughout the years but I’ve only committed to this team. Rarely do you find providers that are as skilled and emotionally intelligent as this team in Princeton. I’ve been working intensely with Karina who has managed to relieve me from years of chronic pain by... employing a variety of techniques. Karina is highly skilled, warm and meets you where you’re at.read moreAutria A.
I could not recommend professional physical therapy enough. The staff were very kind and welcoming every time I was there! I worked with Dr. Krina Patel and she did an amazing job making me feel comfortable with all the exercise's and explaining the purpose behind all of them. Reagan M.
Last winter/spring Dean Linkroum helped me recover from pain and weakness related to a herniated disc in my neck. Leading up to and following disc replacement surgery, Dean worked carefully with me to teach me exercises, stretches and postural corrections to help reduce my pain and help build back... strength and mobility to the point that I was able to successfully backpack (pain-free!) through Switzerland just 3 months after surgery! Dean is a gifted problem-solver and exceptionally talented physical therapist with a perfect blend of empathy and humor to help when you need it most. I feel very fortunate to have been treated by Dean and his colleagues at Professional Physical Therapy and would highly recommend this practice!read moresonja B.

Professional Physical Therapy has helped me through more than one injury. The therapists are well educated, knowledgeable, and empathetic. The staff members are attentive and kind. I have been to both the Princeton and Hamilton locations and have had positive experiences at both. I credit Nicole... for my recovers from a severe concussion and whiplash. I convinced my sister, who has had bad PT experiences, to try Professional PT in Long Beach, NY, for a neck injury. She has improved dramatically and now has an idea of what PT at its best can be. I am now working with Dean and Krina for a lumbar spine and foot/ankle injury. I am confident that I am in good hands.read moreAnnie T.
I had the best experience here for a back injury I have been dealing with. I primarily saw Jake, and I cannot recommend him enough! He really takes his time with each of his patients and genuinely cares about their progress. I saw an improvement in my symptoms within a month and am so grateful for... his help and support. The rest of the staff is also so friendly and I feel confident that I can always reach out to them if needed!read moreBrian P.
Dean did a super great job rehabbing my shoulder very quickly. He helped me regain a lot of strength and build a plan going forward based on the weaknesses he found. The whole clinic is super friendly — would recommend! Anushri D.
The folks at Professional Physical Therapy are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I came in with a running injury and Jake, my PT, was able to get me back into running in a few months! The entire staff is very friendly and professional. Highly recommend! Sergio F.
Dean Linkroum is a fantastic therapist: he is super knowledgeable, and explains what is going on with my condition.

Lastly, I love the parking garage, because who likes Princeton street parking. No one.Now I have to tell you an about one of the best Physical Therapist, Jake! He’s... so knowledgeable and always has an answer for every question I ask (and I ask a lot). He has amazing Bedside manner, 10/10. Very kind, well spoken and so helpful.

The 5 out of 5 stars checks out and I will recommend anyone that needs PT to this location.This is your sign to just Book that appointment!!! Do it!!read moreClaire R.

After shoulder surgery, I spent about 5 months with Dean and his team at the Princeton location of Professional Physical Therapy.

Throughout the whole process, they were... consistently kind, cheerful, knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend them.read moreMatthew M
I was referred to Professional PT because of a slipped disc in my lower back. My therapist Krina Patel was so down to earth, friendly, and kind. Her treatment plan immediately made me feel more comfortable. During my sessions I never felt rushed. Krina was incredibly patient with me, listened to... all my concerns and was happy to answer any question at any time. I was very impressed by her knowledge and ability to explain things simply. She remained attentive and engaged throughout each session so she knew exactly when to increase my exercises. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. I'm actually stronger than I was before my injury!read moreEmma S.
The team at Professional Physical Therapy in Princeton was fantastic. Krina Patel in particular was just great. I went in with a long standing wrist injury that I had little hope would improve and was pleasantly surprised to make a full recovery! I attribute this success fully to Krina's expertise... and guidance. They are (indeed!) very professional, thoughtful and competent. I would enthusiastically recommend this practice (and specifically Krina) to anyone in need of physical therapy.read moreColton L
I found all the staff at professional physical therapy in Princeton to be empathetic and knowledgable as I went through the physical therapy process. I especially appreciate the work of my physical therapist, Krina Patel who I saw during my visits and who helped me greatly Margaret S.
I want to commend Professional Physical Therapy, Princeton (and Krina Patel in particular) for their care, professionalism, compassion, and hard work. I am a veteran of physical therapy with decades of knee problems, and Krina was among the very best in assessing the situation and coming up with... creative therapies to challenge me and remedy the problem. Despite her pushing me, I looked forward to our sessions. The facility was well cared for and their Covid protocols carefully followed. Appointments were easy to schedule or change if needed. I highly recommend Krina and Professional PT.read moreKrzysztof K.
It was my first time at a physical therapy place and I would definitely recommend this one to anyone. The staff is extremely caring and professional. They take time to talk to you, to figure out exactly what is bothering you and to guide you seamlessly through the whole process. The therapy helped... with my foot and I would definitely choose this place again if I have any other issues. Highly recommend!read moreTed S.
just finished treatment for back and knee pain— krina was my primary therapist and i did a session or two with dean when she was on vacation. i would highly recommend both, and physical PT in general— everyone I talked to there was friendly and helpful.i’ve done PT 3 or 4 times previously for... other injuries and this was by far the best experience i’ve had.read moreJohn W.
Professional PT is great. Simran is a really kind and helpful physical therapist yet also knew just how much to push me so that I kept growing in my recovery from a shoulder injury. And Ruby at the front desk and everyone else is so nice. It’s an open office, so other patients/physical therapists... can see you struggling through exercises sometimes, but that also adds to a collegial/collaborative atmosphere.read moreVictoria L.
My mom had a great experience at the Professional PT in Princeton. The office is very clean and spacious. My mom’s therapist was Krina Patel who is very kind and caring. After the first visit my mom felt better. Krina is very knowledgeable, she patiently explained how to perform every exercise... correctly. After about two weeks doing stretching exercises along with massage, my mom’s headaches stopped. Thank you so much, Krina!read moreSean T.
I saw Dean for about ~6 weeks at Professional PT to work on a torn bicep. They definitely know what they are doing there. I stuck to my exercises and stretches, visited the recommended number of times a week, and I was healed up in the projected time.The staff is very friendly, and the covid... protocol is great! Everyone wears masks, all equipment is constantly being wiped down with disinfectant, and the PT’s make sure to wash hands in between working on different patients.I hope I don’t injure myself again, but if I do, I will be coming back to professional PT!read moreSuzannah T.
