Donna M.
Pleasant helpful support staff Nancy. Therapist Adam, good communicator works hard with me. Encouraging and knowledgeable. Helps me stay positive with my progress. Pleasant to work with.
Connie B.
My first experience and I worked with Zach. He is outstanding. Very professional and had lots of patience with me. I feel 100% better.
Monique T.
After struggling to make progress with a previous therapist following my thumb surgery, finding Adam Freitag was a game-changer. He is thorough, attentive, and genuinely invested in his patients' recovery. The progress I've made under his care has been remarkable. I can't recommend him highly... enough!read more
Natasha B.
After a severe injury to my ring finger where I severed a nerve, tendon, and artery, I underwent surgery and spent a month in a cast. When the cast came off, I had lost almost all function in my left hand and could barely move my fingers. Working with Adam completely changed my recovery. In just... one month, I went from being unable to bend my fingers to making a full fist again. His expertise, knowledge, and personalized approach made all the difference. Adam is an exceptional occupational therapist and made every step of the way so much easier! I am incredibly grateful for his care and guidance. I truly believe my progress would not have been nearly as fast or successful without him. I highly recommend Adam to anyone in need of occupational therapy.read more
Robert M.
Found all staff friendly and helpful including administration as well as therapists. Facility was undergoing a physical update during the period of my rehab but that did not have any negative impact on my treatments. I feel secure with my treatments and the continuing followup post discharge
Maureen F.
I highly recommend Iron Physical Therapy in West Caldwell, NJ, Dr. Stoddard is outstanding; she is both knowledgeable and supportive. She was able to help me accomplish all the goals set by my surgeon. The therapy assistants and front desk staff are also to be commended.
Carole S.
Very positive experience with the physical therapy treatment and all the therapists at Professional Physical Therapy in West Caldwell. Excellent and caring, from the receptionists to the therapists. Barbara is top notch as is Laura, Anthony and Reena. Always attentive to my symptoms and supporting... my progress. I worked with Barbara through a thoracic injury, and again with Barbara, Anthony, Laura and Reena for lower back and glutes. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.read more
John P.
Barbara Burns was outstanding during the time she worked with me. I was recovering from knee replacement surgery, which I had in early June.I worked with her 2-3 times a week for 3 months and made a tremendous amount of progress as a result of the work Barbara did with me.I would highly recommend... her. She is an excellent physical therapist.read more
Lynda R.
I have visited professional PT numerous times and the office has also been more than helpful scheduling my appointments. I was being treated for a hip injury which had not been successfully resolved at a different physical therapy site. The quality of care I received from the therapists at... professional physical therapy was not only knowledgeable of my overall well being but also on point for my specific condition. I am now pain free and doing above and beyond my normal activities for my age ( 70+)A huge thank you for the entire staffread more
Safia H.
Just wanted to thank the staff at professional physical therapy especially Reena for helping me get back on track. The receptionist Nancy was always pleasant, very helpful with working around my husband's schedule because I couldn't drive myself. Reena was patient, she listened to all of my issues... and she worked her magic to put me on my path to healing. If you need help with vestibular therapy Reena is the therapist for you. Thank you.read more
Ivette V.
The entire staff is very nice and so helpful with everything. I am doing much better and I owe all to them and the care they gave me throughout the past few months! I had the pleasure of being treated for my therapy by Reena who was amazing. I also had the pleasure of being seen by Barb, Laura and... Steve who were all wonderful as well. Nanacy and Susan were so helpful and kind when dealing with approvals from Workers Comp as well as scheduling Thank you to all of you for making the exper!enve woth while, for the laughs and for the support!read more
Brittany B.
My doctor recommended Professional PT and I see why she did. Both women I interacted with at the desk were beyond friendly and scheduling was easy. I can tell all the staff is well liked but I personally worked with Reena and she is AMAZING. You feel like you’re working with a friend who genuinely... cares about your progress. Besides paying a high copay to go, I might actually miss going there once I’m done with treatment because the vibes are amazing!read more
Robyn and Richard B.
I get the best care at Professional PT in West Caldwell. There are a group of professional physical therapists that are outstanding in the care of my surgically repaired shoulder. Highly recommend this business.

I've had 2 excellent treatments at PPT over the last two years. They are professional, pleasant and low how to help patients meet their goals. I highly recommend PPT.
Dianne J T
I started going to the West Caldwell Professional Physical Therapy on Passaic Avenue about a week and a half ago and when I went there it was a lot smaller than I went to a different facility years ago however, I really like that because your care is very personalized and I love Barbara. She really... cares about how I feel, I also want to tell a little story about something that I saw there.This facility occasionally hires special needs children who are just out of school and need a job and when I was there on Monday, the guy who works there and has special needs addressed one of the therapist and he said -hey, you know why I am in such a good mood today! Because I was excited to come in to work, I wasn’t afraid to do this job because you guys are so nice to me.He said, I really love you guys!Well, that tore right at my heart I was so impressed. I looked at the therapist and I said, wow that’s a real testament to how you guys treat people, I love that & you should be really proud. That was so sweet, I must tell you I love going to this place and I really feel like they really care. Even the receptionist is very sweet.Thank you Barbara for all the attention you give me when I’m there and thanks to Gilbert at the Professional Physical Therapy corporate offices for hooking me up with this office thanks Gilbert you’re the best.read more
celal K.
All staff are friendly, everyone is doing their job in the best way possible. I am very satisfied. I recommend it to anyone who needs physical therapy. Thank you very much for helping me heal my broken shoulder.
Daniel G.
I’m already having success strengthening my right knee from a meniscus repair with the help of Pro PT, only three sessions in. I could save money and time by doing the exercises at home, but I don’t have all of the equipment that they do, or expertise and minimal motivation. So this re-introduces a... schedule for me and gets me out of the house. Who wants to go out during gloomy winter when you have chili con carne and Netflix and the latest shipwreck novel at home? Barbara is the director and she is excellent; patient, kind and listens to you. The other staff are very helpful. It’s not a huge facility and even though there are college pennants hanging up everywhere for decoration, they have plenty of work tables and equipment. I don’t like the pennants because it reminds me how I wasted my education and ended up in a physical labor job which is why I need surgery and PT every decade or so. But at least I am in a strong Union that looks out for its members. Overall I would recommend Pro PT for your recovery. Pros: ample parking lot, a cold water fountain, personal and attentive care that isn’t rushed. Polite front desk. Cons: interior is a little dated, college pennants everywhere.read more
Matt S.
My experience has been outstanding. From the moment I walked in I was treated like Family. Everyone is knowledgeable and willing to assist. I have been to others in my life time but going to Pro PT has been the most Positive experience. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Barb she’s awesomeness.
Nick W.
Very pleased with what we were able to accomplish. Barbara was excellent and really knew her stuff. So happy I went.
Marie J.
I only been with them for a week but I can tell the competence and the knowledge of the staff is phenomenal.Barbara never tired to answer my question and Nancy make it easy for me when it comes to make the schedule.I feel I am in the good hands towards recovery for my TKR
amanda W.
Parth was amazing! He was very helpful in my healing journey. Set up a treatment plan and worked on my ergonomics to help insure my back will be stronger. Everyone in the caldwell office is great so nice and accommodating. Thanks you for everything!!!
Aaron L.
I came to Professional PT for a shoulder injury and they were nothing short of fantastic. The staff was welcoming, friendly and very knowledgeable. Over the month or so that I was under their care, I progressed without issue and definitely left better than when I came in. Barbara was my PT and she... took great care of my shoulder, was extremely knowledgeable and very personable. They try very hard make the best of tough situations. I would absolutely come back if necessary, and would recommend them to anyone.read more
Gerald C (.
After having spinal surgery my doctor recommended physical therapy. Professional PT in West Caldwell was just what I needed to get back into shape and recover from the surgery! Nancy was great helping with scheduling and authorizations from my insurance. Barb was my physical therapist and she... was outstanding. She was always checked on how I was doing and adjusted my physical therapy accordingly as I progressed over the weeks of PT. I highly recommend Professional PT in West Caldwell if the need arises!read more
Theresa M.
I had fallen in my house and I pulled my back so badly, I could barely walk. My dr suggested I go to PT. It was super easy to get appointments, the office staff always called back and within minutes! They were super nice.After 2 visits, I was feeling 100% better. My PT person was Anthony Papa,... who performed what I call a miracle. He’s the go to man to fix you.He was extremely professional and always took the time to answer my questions!!! I am in such a better place now! I wouldn’t go anywhere else!read more
Benjamin M.
Highly recommend! The full staff is great, worth the drive from a few towns away to get my son the best help.
Peter T.
Anthony at Professional Physical Therapy is THE BEST! He couples knowledge to experience in a way that alleviates patient suffering. Anthony helped me with a long-standing neck issue that only continued to worsen. After a few weeks with Anthony, I started to see noticeable improvement. I went from... having stabbing shots of pain several times a day to a drastic reduction in the frequency, duration, and intensity of such attacks. He is caring, knowledgeable, and persistent in his efforts to address his patient's problem. He is easy to talk to and AMAZING at what he does. I recommend Anthony and his team at PPT enthusiastically!read more
Matthew R.
I’ve been a patient there multiple times over the years and have the highest confidence in them to diagnose and treat me. Also they always seem to be able to work with my schedule which really helps. I highly recommend them.
Frank D.
Very courteous and helpful administrative staff. knowledgeable and well trained PTs, who are willing to go above and beyond to satisfy your needs for recovery. Caring, sensitive and understanding people who will expedite your recovery. Thanks for all your continued help with my recovery.
Janice M.
They are the BEST! Over the years, I've been under the care of both Barbara and Dave and I can't say enough about how terrific they are. And as another reviewer stated - the office staff, Nancy & Susan are equally terrific. I highly recommend this office - you will not go wrong!
Carly P.
I cannot stress how kind and helpful the staff here is. When i first started here i went in using a walker. After 14 visits of physical therapy i am feeling so much better and was able to completely get rid of my walker. I feel amazing and am able to walk on my own with the occasional use of a... cane. I would really like to thank everyone at Professional Physical Therapy for the help that they gave me. I am able to walk on my own and feeling so much better all thanks to this wonderful staff.From Tony Petronaciread more

Dave is the best. Understood where I was and listened to where I wanted to get to. I hope to never need PT again but if I do, you can be sure I’ll be calling Dave.
Sue P.

Bio

Chris has been a practicing Physical Therapist since 2018 and enjoys working with a broad variety of patients. He gained an initial interest in the field as a patient after sustaining an overuse injury in high school as Chris was a very active soccer player. His PT at the time did three main things: explained his condition, educated Chris on the reasons for the specific exercise prescriptions, and provided Chris with a plan to allow him to manage his condition and prevent reinjury. These are three of the main pillars that Chris strives to utilize to get the best results out of his patients no matter the condition or diagnosis.

Chris completed his undergraduate education at Manhattan College where he studied Exercise Science with a Pre-PT concentration; throughout that time he was a 4 year member of their NCAA Men's D1 Soccer Program as a goalkeeper, receiving numerous academic honors in addition to being named to the MAAC All-Rookie Team. Postgraduate, Chris obtained his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Rutgers School of Health Professions and gained experience and further interest in Orthopedic and Sports Medicine throughout his studies. Following graduation Chris began working for Professional PT and enrolled in the ProPT-NYIT Orthopedic Residency Program for further PT specialization and career advancement.

Chris feels that patient education is just as important for a patient's outcome as the treatment being provided. He utilizes a broad range of manual therapy techniques and exercise prescription tailored to his patients' individual needs and goals.

Outside of PT, Chris enjoys watching soccer games whenever possible, cooking for his family, and going for hikes with his wife, friends, and dog Solo.
