I went to Professional PT for about four months after ACL reconstruction and meniscus surgery, after being dissatisfied with therapy elsewhere. I mainly worked with Matthew but also saw Sophia and Ariella. All of the staff was unfailingly helpful, informative, kind, patient, and encouraging during... a difficult time. They have created a peaceful, therapeutic atmosphere at the office, and I always looked forward to my appointments. And my knee functioning has improved tremendously and continues to!read moreMaureen B.
All levels of staff very helpful especially Zach and Myra. PT staff knowledgeable and caring. Matt is wonderful. I can't explain it well but he is very connected mentally to what his hands are doing. David Nop L.
I couldn’t say enough great things about Matt (head PT) and Sophia (associate PT) at this location! They provide detailed and digestible information, focused attention and treatment that has given me real progress in my shoulder injury.Most importantly, it seems that injury begets injury and the... shoulder is a complicated network of parts. As my issues evolve, Matt and Sophia adjust care to address the issue at hand - and leave me w at-home exercises to stay consistent.I’m confident this team will get me back to 110% and I’m sure you will also get the help you need!read moreMark K.

I have been treated for several muscular skeletalissues. Each treatment plan resolved theseproblems very satisfactorily. The therapists areknowledgeable and empathetic. This is,in my estimation, the perfect combinationfor healing. Jennifer B.
Ariella provided excellent care and worked with me to overcome the obstacles of returning to a physically demanding job. The rest of the team was also incredibly helpful and made coming to PT a warm and friendly experience — even with all of the growing pains. Strongly recommend! Karen G.
The genuine care I received and the communication between my pain management doctor and Matthew worked really well Tony S.
Informative, thorough, attentive and professional. Therapists are constantly evaluating and adjusting your therapy based on your feedback. I’ve been to several other PT before and believe many just go through the motions to collect insurance payments. From the front desk to the facility,... cleanliness and professionalism of the therapists, I wouldn’t choose any other PT.read moreDavid Z.
