“Excellent! Love that the Clinic has a full gym attached. Rich and Ali helped me reach my goal of getting back out on the trails after total knee replacement. I was hiking in the Hansville Greenway 3 months post surgery!” – Melissa W.
“My first visit was great. We are going to work on underlying conditions causing pain. I am hopeful that my therapist wants to help me and is very experienced. I would recommend to anyone seeking physical therapy to be seen and treated here. Front desk staff is friendly and helpful also. Casual environment and they take Medicare.” – Anna M.
