“My daughter saw Eric after a sever dance injury to her ankle. He was awesome with her and really helped her recover well so that she can dance again, which is something incredibly important to her. Highly recommend him and Kitsap Physical Therapy!!” – Michele C.
“Just finished up my sessions with Kitsap Physical Therapy and am very pleased with the services. All the people I interfaced with from schedulers to therapists were very professional, helpful and personable. The facility is clean and equipment up to date. Very happy with my Physical Therapist, ( Eric). Eric explained exercises thoroughly plus the rationale of why and how they would be beneficial. I now have enough information to continue on my own. I highly recommend this facility.” – Linda E.
“First of all having a South Kitsap office located in Port Orchard greatly helped me schedule all my needed therapy sessions. From the start you are greeted as you walk in and are promptly assisted with any questions or concerns. Scheduling is kept simple with future visit planning in place. Care and attention to my safety and comfort was the first and primary topic of each session.
The KPT team are well trained and work together to make sure that you get the most out of each visit. All concerns are addressed on the spot and the team works together to make sure that you have the correct and accurate information regarding your questions and symptoms. I will be requesting KPT and Sports Clinic the next time I need care and rehab.” – Chester D.
