I have been a patient of Mykaela's for a few months, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! I have a rare genetic condition called COL4A1 that causes muscle stiffness, and I honestly thought I wouldn't get better. From my very first appointment, Mykaela gave me hope and reassurance. She is kind, positive, knowledgeable, and truly has a heart of gold. She even took the time to research my condition so she could better understand how to help me. Since starting physical therapy, I have noticed less stiffness in my calves, I'm not falling anymore due to balance issues and my legs don't get as tired. I feel like I have so much more energy throughout the day! I am now receiving PT for my neck, and once again, I'm amazed by Mykaela's knowledge of the body. She is professional, gentle, and genuinely cares about her patients. I also love this company! Everyone is so kind, the team works wonderfully together, and the environment is calm and welcoming. I especially appreciate how easy it is to schedule appointments and have them automatically added to my phone calendar. I'm so grateful to have Mykaela as my physical therapist! read more

I started PT in Vista for my shoulder but quit when I felt I wasn't making any progress. After moving to PB I found Blake and ASIS and decided to try again. After 6 months working with Blake I am back to swimming at full strength- something I never thought would be possible. I'm signed up for open water races in La Jolla and Coronado this year, and I owe all my success to Blake and the team at ASIS. If you're not seeing great results with your PT exercises, perhaps you should try a different set of professionals. ASIS in PB gets my highest rating. read more

I have been working with Dave and the team at ASIS for the past 5 months after hurting my ankle. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done for me! Dave's knowledge and expertise, always friendly demeanor, and the welcoming and fun atmosphere every time I walk in makes going to physical therapy fun! I could not be happier with my results and my choice of clinic and physical therapist. Thank you to Dave, Jess, Justin, Emilia, Levi, and Anna for supporting me during my recovery process, you guys are the best!! read more

I have been going to Asia for about a year with a torn ACL. Dave helped get me through every stage of recovery from immediately after surgery all the way through playing sports again. The entire staff is great and everyone was very knowledgeable and helpful with demonstrating the the various exercises. couldn't recommend Asia enough! read more

Excellent experience . Everyone was great from doctors of physios to assistants to front desk . They helped me get my knee with 4 surgeries and more back to functioning again . Great physios !! read more

This place really helped me figure out some serious muscle imbalances and instability issues. I came here first for my shoulder and then again for shoulder and knee/foot pain. They do hands on adjustments as well as training with resistance bands, TRX straps, yoga balls, and kettle bells/weights. I have been feeling well enough to not need to come back since I've been working with a trainer at my gym to really strengthen my back and arms and core but if I ever need to come back here I know I will be in great hands. This is the best place I've been for PT and hi highly recommend as all of the staff are wonderful! read more

Dave Karg and the entire staff are great! I actually enjoy going to PT! -------------------------

Really happy with how my therapy sessions have gone at ASIS. I was primarily with Blake and he is very experienced and just overall a good guy. He understood quickly what was going on with my back and shoulder and got me on a treatment plan. I would recommend them to anyone looking for professional physical therapy. Location is hard to beat as well. read more

Injured my shoulder in October , rotator cuff, started PT in November barely could move my arm, by January I was 99.9 %. Dave Karg was my primary PT, plus the staff all were caring and helpful in my road to recovery. read more

PB's Greatest Hidden Gem: The Asis physical therapy is by far the greatest hidden gem in PB. My life was over when I suffered a 50% MCL tear from surfing. Any least that's what I thought, until I met Dave Karg at Asis. There were a few weeks at the beginning of my PT where I thought my knee would never recover to its full potential. All Dave asked of me was a little patience. Sure enough, after following his work-out plan in the office and the take home works-outs, I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. Not only was my knee recovering, my postures and body mechanics were improving to prevent future injuries. Before I knew it, Dave was prescribing me some of the most creative exercises and workouts, which he definitely thought of himself and didn't find on TikTok, to not only heal my knee but build it back even stronger than before. Dave and assistants such as AJ and Gisselle would, on multiple occasions, stay late to make sure that I had finished my workouts. AJ and Giselle both did an excellent job of paying attention to detail while overseeing my workouts to make sure that I was executing properly, answering all of my questions, and taking the time to ask Dave for clarification if necessary. I also observed AJ and Gisselle showing the same attention to other patients when they weren't working with me. Additionally, Asís PT is the perfect place to get updates and share opinions about all of the football games from the week; just ask Dave Karg about his fantasy football league! And if you don't care about football, Dave will always lend you his ear when you need someone to just listen, and offer deep nuggets of wisdom when you need advice. That being said, Dave only gets paid for physical therapy, so I try not to take advantage of his willing ear. Sure, you could find a different office. But if you want a quality recovery program that works, from people who really care and want you to get better... if you want camaraderie and connection, and to stretch oversized rubber-bands until your glutes burn in ways you didn't know was possible , and your abs to scream during obscure core workouts: "who am I really doing this for?" Look no further than Dave Karg, DPT, and the employees like AJ and Gisselle at Asis physical therapy in Pacific Beach. And while I may have left a number of my PT appointments drenched in sweat, hammies burning, don't be discouraged if this doesn't sound like it's for you. Dave curates his program for each patient, finding the right balance of exercise and effort for you. Dave is an excellent listener; he takes his patients feedback seriously, and will incorporate your needs and insight into your recovery. As saddened as I may be to be completing my recovery program at Pacific Beach Asis with Dave, AJ, Gisselle, and the many other employees, I am so honored to have had this experience. I believe Shakespeare wrote: "better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all." Let me then say, "better to have done physical therapy at Asis with Dave, than to have never injured my knee at all." P.S. If you're still on the fence about where to get PT and with who, I'm afraid no one can help you. read more

I've attended ASIS PT's PB Location since Nov. 2021 to treat ACL issues in my right knee. Before coming to ASIS, my recovery was atypical due to various circumstances and complications, but this seemed to be no issue for Dr. Jake Fellow and the rest of the ASIS PT staff. I was immediately impressed with their hands on approach and personalized attention. Jake is an amazing physical therapist and is very committed to his patients. He addresses every question and concern and would even go out of his way to accommodate my schedule for appointments. I knew exactly how to do my home exercises and my treatment plan was constantly adapted to meet my needs. I felt results almost immediately. Within 6 months, I was back to running and volleyball- activities I had not done in over 2 years! I couldn't be happier with my progress. I am so grateful to Jake and the aides for helping me reach my goals. They are professional, knowledgeable, and so friendly and kind. I'd recommend them without hesitation for any physical therapy need. Thank you Jake & ASIS! read more

I had been dealing with shoulder pain for years. Jake taught me how to strengthen the area and relieve the pain. He also worked on my shoulder every session to elevate any tightness. The exercises were explained carefully during my session and I could access them at home using a printout or a video on their website. Easy to schedule appointments and whole staff was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. read more

I'm more than happy to write this review for the Asis in PB and my PT, Sam Sorce, after making a full recovery and feeling really confident about it. I tore my right Achilles' tendon during a basketball game and knew this injury would take a while to recover from. I'm active and wanted to get back to normal quickly. Sam listened to me carefully and tailored the program to fit what worked best for me. I've been to other PTs in San Diego but Asis was the most personable and provided the best care. They're genuinely friendly and you're not just another face! I couldn't have asked for a better experience getting my strength back than with Sam and the aides Nate, Christian, and Lindsay. I'm back to running and being active again, and even forget that I was injured some days :). They work with all types of injuries and ages, definitely check them out!! read more

ASIS Physical Therapy - Pacific Beach - Simple and effective treatment - Physical Therapy Near Me - San Diego, California

I went to Asis PT pacific beach based on yelp reviews for a torn labrum in my shoulder. I very much wanted to avoid needing surgery. I went to Dave Karg. He is excellent. He has tremendous expertise and is very nice and personable. At the end of 3 months I am 95 percent better and will not need surgery so I am thrilled. Everyone at the Pacific Beach location is extremely nice and friendly and I also worked with AJ and Laynie ( the PT aides) and they are both great as well! I would highly recommend going to all of them. read more

These folks were awesome. I had a knee problem that prevented me from running / exercising, which impacted my quality of life. Dave was able to diagnose my knee problem and provide strength to training to not just resolve it but also make it feel better than before my knee issue began. I can't recommend these folks enough, esp at the PB location! read more

I can't say enough about the outstanding care I received at Asis Physical Therapy from Dr. Sage Flynn. I was under her care from August to October 2023 for treatment of shoulder and chest injuries resulting from a bicycle fall. I found her to be extremely knowledgable, skilled, observant, and a close listener to her patients. She quickly diagnosed my injuries and developed and executed a treatment plan under which I rapidly improved. In my experience, few doctors (regardless of their specialty) exhibited the level of knowledge and care that she does. I will recommend her to anyone that requires physical therapy and should I ever require it again, she is the first person I will contact. read more

The service I received from Jake Fellow is excellent. Dr. Fellow and the staff are friendly and ensure that I am properly informed about my injury and its progress. Dr. Fellow did a great job and explained everything to me in a very clean manner. I would highly recommend him. Leandro read more

I cannot recommend ASIS, Jake Fellow, and the entire team more strongly. I started therapy on the heels of a complicated quad tendon repair that left me with very limited flexion and quad strength. Jake had experience with an even more severe version of the injury (bilateral, in that case), and he put that experience to brilliant use in designing a successful program for me. Within the first three weeks, I gained over 20 degrees of flexion, visible quad definition and stability, and benefited from a focused program aimed at getting me back to my sports. Every session starts with a status check and measurements, and there is zero time wasted. The rest of the team is awesome, too -- personable, great at explaining the proper technique for the exercises, and extremely motivating. As a result of the partnership with ASIS, I feel like I've gotten back on track after a difficult initial post-operation period, and I'm thrilled with the progress. Very, very highly recommended. read more

I did physical therapy at ASIS for three months, and I cannot recommend them enough! Katelyn, my amazing PT, was attentive, kind and empathetic from my initial consultation to my final appointment. Not only was she extremely knowledgable when it came to the treatment of my ongoing ankle laxity, but she also was able to squeeze me into her packed schedule short notice and responded right away to my emails breaking down my treatment plan and explaining my MRI results. I cannot thank her enough!!! All the Physical Therapy aides were also fantastic--I worked the most with Caroline--at what they do, and exercises were gradually progressed in difficulty each week, which helped me gain strength and confidence in my ankle again. Thank you so much to the staff at ASIS PT! read more

I was referred to ASIS by my knee doctor after sustaining a knee injury. I did PT before and after my meniscus surgery (I had previous ACL & meniscus surgery on the same knee 10 years prior). Here are I am, a few months later, back to doing the physical activities that I love - running, hiking, and biking. I feel strong and secure which is such a blessing. I couldn't have done it without Jake and his team! Jake, Lindsay and Nate were incredibly patient, encouraging, and helpful, providing excellent advice, setting me up with a great at home program as well as in person care. Can't recommend them enough! read more

Phenomenal!! I showed to ASIS in Pacific Beach after suffering a torn hamstring and was desperate for guidance on the long road to recovery. ASIS set up my first appointment with Jake and he made sure to take the time to gather all the information he could about the accident, my current injury and any previous body ailments that I've had in the past. It was extremely reassuring to be around such a strong team of educated and competent physical therapists who genuinely care about each and every one of their patients. Fast forward one month, I'm way ahead of schedule in the healing process and nearing a full recovery. I went in with the mindset of wanting to get back to feeling 100% as soon as possible and I worked with several different employees who all joined in effort to make that happen. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks ASIS! read more

Long overdue, but my PT was Sam in PB. I also had the pleasure of working with PT Aides Tori and Ali and a couple of times with Christian. Sam first off was excellent, she truly cared about my progress and did as much as she could with different treatments, exercises, and activities. She was professional, friendly, and a pleasure to work with. She helped me in not only understanding what she was doing but also the theory and actual workings of why she was doing what she was doing. The aides were also excellent as well with making sure I could do the exercises and helping me to make sure I got the most out of my treatments. I'd highly recommend Sam and her team for PT. read more

Asis personal are more interested in paperwork than patients. I got little improvement in my back from my visits.

I am so very thankful for the treatment my entire family has received at ASIS. Dr Pansky and the staff at ASIS has cared for our sports related injuries and post-surgical care. The quality of care and results have been outstanding. Thanks for keeping my family running and doing the things we love. read more

I feel obligated to share my experience working with Asis and staff. I was referred to them by a Dr. I knew. I tore my rotator cuff back last June. I was suggested to give PT a try to potentially avoid surgery. Surgeons suggested I get the surgery but I wanted to exhaust my options before going under the knife. They(Dave and Kevin) REALLY helped me strengthen the area and I was essentially functioning as if there was no injury after working with them over the course of 4 months. It was overall a completely positive experience... Well, I re-injured it so I immediately made an appointment with Dr. Kevin Pansky, who I had been working with prior to re-injuring it, to see if he'd suggest what I already knew... Is surgery the only option? Kevin is, from my perspective, as good as it gets. He's just been great to work with. He's a true professional and master of his craft. He just knows his stuff and I am/have been completely confident and trusting in his skills. He recommended a surgeon(Dr. Tal David) and I took his suggestion and got it done. Long story short I had a very successful surgery and only 3 weeks after surgery, I was out of my sling and headed back to Asis to rehab this shoulder back to strength. It's been great to get back to them after a successful surgery. I just feel they deserve the props because I've worked with several PT's here and they've ALL been amazing(Dave who I also feel has and is helping me get back to normal strength). Even the front desk staff and back office are ALL so sweet and very responsive. These guys deserve the recognition because they(Dr. Kevin Pansky) runs a solid organization from top to bottom. I strongly suggest anyone in need of a competent and trustworthy place, Asis, hands down. Thanks guys... read more

It was so lucky that I was referred to Jake Fellow at ASIS Physical Therapy Pacific Beach. In the past, I've had physical therapy several times at other places, but ASIS was completely different. Jake is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, and he brought great and generous insight and inspiration to my 12-week course of treatment. Together with his exercise assistant (Lindsay), they led me to total recovery from an adductor injury that my doctor said would take a very, very long time to heal. All it took was 12 weeks! Upon my "graduation" from ASIS, Jake and Lindsay provided me with a complete line-up of maintenance work to help prevent re-injury. At age 70, my long-term health depends on my being very active -- I swim 3,000 yards and walk 2 miles each day. Colleagues. who haven't seen me in a while are amazed at how good I look and how gracefully I move. Long life is great if the quality of life is great. I will always be grateful to Jake and Lindsay for making life even greater! read more

Jason was my therapist and he is great. Knowledgeable and patient. Helped me tremendously. read more

Wow, Sam and her colleagues are amazing. I have never liked PT but I actually enjoy going to Asia!

I found ASIS PT 14 months ago and have since been using them consistently to resolve numerous injuries, some that I've lived with for ages, as well as new injuries I've developed while playing tennis. Sam Sorce at the Garnet Ave location is a fantastic Dr. of PT who couples what is obviously excellent training and deep understanding of anatomy with an uncanny talent for narrowing in on the cause of a problem and focused resolution. I'm over 60 and very active, including 15 hrs/week of tennis. She has treated me for tennis elbow, golf elbow, knee, hip, back and calf issues. I'm now going to her to rehab after rotator cuff surgery that I had at Scripps. My pcp and my orthopedist have given her outstanding accolades for what she has accomplished with me. I like that she gets me back on the court as soon as possible, but no sooner. The sessions begin with a half hour of treatment from Sam, followed by another half hour of stretching and strengthening exercises with her excellent support team of assistants, which she keeps careful control of as she educates them on variations in techniques that she customizes to my particular body nuances and injuries. The successes I have had at ASIS seem almost like magic to me because of the extent to which they have relieved my pains over the past year. 5 star all the way! read more

These folks are the best!!! I highly recommend them. They are professional, nice and so thorough. My husband went to Kevin for his shoulder and was extremely pleased. So I decided to try them when I hurt my shoulder. I was treated by Jake. If I could give them six stars I would! read more

I got a hip replacement in March. My surgeon, Dr. Ball recommended Asis for my physical therapy, and I was fortunate enough to get Dr. Jason Molina as a therapist. I am very active and set lofty goals for myself. Well, I have actually surpassed those goals. Dr. Molina and the rest of the staff (especially Cassidy) have guided me along the path to full recovery. As a matter of fact, I'm better than I was before. Thank you for you wonderful work. jk read more

Thanks to Jake Fellow, DPT, and his team at ASIS PB, I am back to my favorite activity of mountain hiking after having had a serious traumatic injury and orthopedic surgery to one of my legs. Jake developed a terrific plan to enable complete recovery, and with his twice weekly treatments and the PT exercises with assistants Nate and Lindsay, I had amazing results over 6 months. The specialized, personalized care in this vibrant environment of health, delivered with friendliness and expertise, has made all the difference. Highly recommended! read more

Asis is helping me avoid surgery for a torn rotator cuff. After going to many physical therapists, I found Asis - referred by an orthopedic surgeon and a nurse practitioner. The team, Jason as physical therapist, Sam, and the wonderful assistants are so encouraging, and work well together. Sessions include 1/2 hour hands-on with the physical therapist, 1/2 hour with an assistant for exercises, and 1/2 hour for specialty treatments, including laser, electrostim and more. I had no idea anything like this was possible before Asis. Try them - you'll be glad! Elizabeth Hamilton read more

Dr. Jason Molina is truly a magic man! I came to ASIS due to issues of pain in my neck and lower back. After the first week, my pain was substantially much more tolerable. Along with his aides, everyone has worked with me in such a way that is completely professional and ethical with great knowledge of what I need and require to get better. Truly, I feel extremely fortunate to have been referred to Asis. I recommend anyone who is having any pain and wants to get better to give them a try, you will not be disappointed. The fact that I've been able to progress without any pain medications speaks volumes in itself. Thanks Jason, Haley, Neil, Beth, and KJ!!! Keep up the excellent work! read more

Buckle in. This is going to be a long one. It's just too difficult to summarize how Jason has changed my life. I had been dealing with chronic lower and mid back pain for almost 15 years. Over time, the pain began spreading to my hips and my neck. My pain continued to increase while my ability to participate in activities I truly enjoyed, was on a fast decline. Hiking, sports, weightlifting and running were all things that I had to stop doing. It had gotten to the point that I had given up on the idea of doing them again. I tried multiple chiropractors, PT's, massage therapists, acupuncturists and doctors over the past decade with only temporary pain relief at best. I would feel better for a day or two as long as I didn't do anything, but it would always return. It was very disheartening to know that I couldn't go with my friends and family on a hike, play tennis or even go for a run. It had gotten so bad that simply walking for any extended period of time proved to be difficult. Then I decided to try out ASIS. It was the best decision of my life. I'll be honest. At first, I wasn't hopeful. But I couldn't have been more wrong. When I first met Jason, I gave him an extremely long description of my history. He listened intently, allowing me to unburden myself of years of frustration. Once I finished, we got to work. On day one, Jason was able to alleviate a significant amount of pain. The difference is that with the techniques he used and the guidance he gave me for in home exercise, it wasn't just short-lived pain relief. In only a few short months, Jason has been able to eliminate 80% of the pain I was experiencing. To this day, it is still hard for me to believe. I know it is still a work in progress but my quality of life has increased exponentially, allowing me to finally do the things I love once again. Things that I had written off. I'm back in the gym on a daily basis. I can hike and play sports again. But most importantly, and for what I am most grateful for, is that I can bend down and pick up my 14 month old son and carry him around without being in pain. Jason is a true professional. He is understanding, patient, knowledgeable and dedicated. The amount of gratitude I have for him and his commitment to me is immeasurable. He has truly changed my life. And for that, I'm forever grateful. If I had to summarize all of this in one sentence...GIVE THE MAN A RAISE!! :) read more

I came to Asis in Pacific Beach for two separate gym-related injuries in the past year and had great results from working with Dr. Jake Fellow. Jake was able to identify the cause of the injuries and also recommend effective exercises to prevent future injuries, all while helping me to stay active throughout the process. I would absolutely recommend Jake and the Asis team for any physical therapy needs, particularly sport or exercise-related injuries. read more

Very, very impressed with ASIS physical therapy. I was referred to them with severe IT band tendinitis. I could honestly barely walk let alone bend my knee. Within three sessions I had improved almost 90% and was back to doing most activities I enjoyed. Jason and Beth are the consummate professionals and speak to the quality of all the employees. They are extremely intelligent and have an excellent bedside manner. Scheduling is flexible and the scheduling staff is quite friendly and helpful. Billing/co-pay/insurance is easy and efficient. I highly recommend ASIS PT. read more

After severely dislocating my kneecap while sparring in Jiu Jitsu, my Sports Medicine Doctor referred me to Asis Physical Therapy. At that time I moved (not walked because you can't really call it that) with a severe limp and was experiencing complete kneecap dislocations several times per week due to muscle spasms, swelling, etc. In my first session with Jason Molina, he explained the intricacies of my current condition in terms that I could understand. Furthermore, he laid out a plan of care that was both detailed and thorough. I could immediately tell that he "knew his stuff". After the very first session my gait had improved significantly while the swelling my knee had been reduced. Several weeks later I was walking without a limp. Before I knew it I was jumping, squatting and moving much more athletically. Thanks to Jason's help, I am now able to hike, go up and down stairs and look forward to returning to Jiu Jitsu in the very near future. Above all else, my quality of life has improved significantly. Last but not least, Jason's "bedside manner" is second to none. In addition to being very informative, Jason is an exceptional listener which results in him making informed decisions while providing the best care possible for his patients. I highly recommend Jason Molina at Asis to anyone in need of physical therapy. read more

Huge disappointment! First visit was fine. 2nd visit I couldn't get with the original therapist but it was OK. Third visit I was supposed to be with the original person, however, a student greeted me, told me that the therapist would join us, he never did !I canceled all my remaining appointments! Very unprofessional! read more
