What Our Clients Say
My World Was Put Back In Place. When I initially started coming to Professional Physical Therapy, I had vertigo and things were a mess. Sometimes I was dizzy regardless of what I did, sometimes it was totally random. The room would spin, the ground would move, walking was hard, nausea was constant – not fun. Dr. Patt worked with me and my world was put back in balance. No dizzy spells, no problems standing and getting up from bed. They were totally amazing and great. Thank you! Now I’m doing 20 miles on the bike again! I have had the best PT Trainers ever. I started out with a lot of pain and now I’m doing 20 miles on the bike again. My ankle was very stiff and painful. Now, I’m doing better with all the help from the staff keeping me on task each time. I came to my sessions without a doubt that I had the best team ever for Physical Therapy.
