    I am not on social media so again YELP to the rescue. I saw Dr Nicali for the 1st time yesterday…read moreand I will definitely be going back. I received an Xray, Heat massage, Radiation treatment,a massage AND an adjustment. I was in soo much pain, I could not move my are at all and now I have limited mobility but its a 100% difference from where I was. Dr Nicali explained EVERYTHING to me before and during the processes (and I had a LOT of questions). The treatment is very affordable and his hands (the skies opened and I heard the Angels sing) LOL, I am recommending him to everyone I know. The girls in the office are also very nice and very gentle, check him out for yourselves you will NOT be disappointed :)

    I came here a few times a few months ago and wanted an appointment today. Here are the RIDICULOUS…read moreFEES I'd incur f I made an appointment today: -another "initial evaluation" which would cost more than the session - when it's for the same problem I had during my last visit just a few months ago - $30 to CHECK insurance for the new year, apparently it's this fee every year -another fee to "expedite" checking my insurance because I wanted an appointment in less than 24 hours -I'd pay out of pocket for an appointment in less than 24 hours because they wouldn't be able to check my insurance in time Also note one of their doctors (not Dr. Carrie Huang) has a notice to not hire or work with interns. Something shady happened here which left a bad taste in my mouth already a few months ago but since I was seeing Dr. Carrie I didn't care.

    Yes, I highly recommend this practice…read more Risser Orthopedic Group has been absolutely outstanding, and Dr. Mostafi is truly an exceptional hand surgeon. He has helped my father tremendously and continues to care for him with the highest level of expertise and compassion, even after multiple finger amputations due to his underlying medical conditions. Dr. Mostafi is incredibly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and clearly knows exactly what he's doing. His bedside manner is beyond amazing--patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. He takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, which brings comfort and reassurance during very difficult circumstances. We are beyond grateful for his continued care and dedication. I highly recommend Dr. Mostafi and the team at Risser Orthopedic Group without hesitation.

    Today checking into surgery was on point did not have to wait…read morestaff was very professional and helpful especially nurse Stephanie her bedside manner was a Aplus! not to mention meeting Dr Hernandez he looked young but that fooled me he knows what he is doing ;) thank you Dr for not allowing me to wake up from anesthesia sick. and then there's Dr. Mustafi this doctor is magnificent. He did trigger finger on me today and already this evening i'm able to making a fist and not enduring too much pain. I believe the job has been done well thank you staff for being professional kind and taking care of me, I will be back !

    Issue: low back pain, probably related to running. They did 2 assessments, which seemed aimed…read moregetting me to return. They gave me 2 exercises, 4 stretches. For weeks, asked for more exercises. Every time, no, said I needed to come back. I went to another provider, they correctly diagnosed my issue: anterior pelvic tilt. Something on EPT checklist/assessment form, that they completely missed. And, new provider gave me a complete exercise program (10-12 exercises). I don't think EPT was able to deliver for performance, and they were not flexible with my time/needs. Although I'm sure they are fine for most, for me, most importantly, they missed a seemingly obvious assessment/diagnosis.

    I was reluctant to try PT again after a poor experience with a past provider at another practice…read morebut I'm so glad I did! I struggle with intermittent pain which is challenging to communicate to a doctor when it's not actively flared up, but Aimee is empathetic and kind and really listened and believed me when I was describing my pain while not actively in pain. She gave me homework and things were going well, but my real 10/10 experience came when a flare up coincided with my appointment date. I arrived in tears because my neck and hips hurt so badly. Through massage and stretching and being gentle with me, I left the appointment feeling significantly better than when I came in and was able to go about my day without crying in pain. She has since taught me some great exercises for when I'm in an active flare up to reduce pain and we're working on building strength. I notice a big difference in my workouts from small adjustments she's given me. Also, the whole staff is warm and helpful. I know having to pay out of pocket can be a challenge and I was certainly skeptical to not get insurance coverage for PT, but I just can't recommend Elevated enough.

    I came to HealthFit because I was dealing with chronic hip and knee pain. I'm at a pivotal age…read morewhere I needed to either fix the problem or prepare for invasive medical intervention down the road. Cheri came highly recommended and it was clear from our first session that she really takes the time to figure out and understand what my body was doing and why I was experience the pain that I was feeling. She took the time to evaluate how my whole body was moving and identified several body mechanic and movement issues that were contributing to the problem. We started off with basic exercises that set the stage for more complex ones as I progressed. HealthFit has systems in place to make sure that when you're at home doing your exercises, you have video references with detailed explanations on how to do each exercise properly. After each week, little by little, things started to change. And then there came that moment when everything clicked and started to change! I've noticed a huge improvement not only in pain reduction, but also in my overall stability, balance, and strength. Cheri has given me the tools to break my body's bad habits. I highly recommend working with Cheri to anyone dealing with chronic pain, movement issues, or sports-related injuries. Cheri is thoughtful, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about helping her patients improve long term.

This is my go to place whenever I need physical therapy. The personalized service and extended one-on-one time are absolutely worth it if you care about your joints, muscles, and long-term recovery. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the wonderful front office staff, Feliza and Britt. They make you feel right at home, and I always enjoy chatting with them and hearing what's going on in their young lives. And now for my knowledgeable, kind PT, Dr. Daphne Tan. She has treated me for several injuries, including my shoulder, elbow, and lower back. She has also treated me post-surgically, and I always leave our sessions feeling better than when I came in. She is motivating, attentive, and really takes the time to correct my form during exercises so I'm doing everything properly. I am not sharing my time with 2 other patients. I'm very glad I found HealthFit. It is well worth it compared to a larger corporate/hospital based PT clinic where your therapist may spend more time documenting than actually monitoring your movement and progress. HealthFit provides the kind of personalized care that makes a real difference.

    I went to see Dr Ben Yu for various pains in my body. He was very knowledgable and patient…read more Sometimes he would have me do exercises which didn't seem to relate to my problems, but they actually relieved the pain. Some of the exercises were not intuitive to me, he would try different ways to explain to me. He would take the time to answer my questions of how things work. The demonstration videos that were attached in he home exercises also helped a lot. He genuinely cared about his patients' well being. I really enjoyed working w/ him. Even though at the end my hip was shown in the x-ray to have advanced arthritis and cannot avoid surgery, other areas of my body have really improved due to his care. I highly recommend Ben and his team.

    How do you know if your body is silently breaking down if you never get a proper diagnosis? Through…read moreDr. Benjamin Yu, I was able to see exactly where my weak points were--and more importantly, the 'why' behind them. It was a classic case of: 'I didn't know I needed therapy until I got therapy.' ​I booked an evaluation not because of an injury, but as preventive maintenance for my physical well-being. It's the same logic I use for my car: you don't wait for the engine to fail before you take it in for service. A standard annual physical checks your internal chemistry, but it doesn't check the health of your skeletal architecture. If you want to live a long life without a wheelchair or chronic pain, this is the missing piece. It's just science. ​Dr. Benjamin listens with extreme patience. After just watching me walk, he could tell me exactly what I needed to work on. He didn't just explain the root cause of my back pain (the classic millennial struggle); he explained the chain reaction behind it using simple analogies and actionable steps. He treats the cause, not just the effect. ​Since the exercises are all bodyweight-based, I can do them anywhere--at home or while traveling. Before this, I didn't realize my back was aching simply because it was compensating for my hamstrings. I've moved away from the linear mindset of 'stretch what hurts' to a deeper focus on strengthening the right muscles for longevity and performance. It's about unlearning a lifetime of bad habits and replacing them with proper form. ​This has completely changed how I approach my training. I've stopped relying on 'primal intuition'--doing whatever it takes to finish a movement--and started using the muscle groups that were born to do that work. Instead of burning out my strongest muscles, I'm finally using the whole system. ​Be who you were designed to be. I don't know why this isn't a routine checkup for everyone yet, but I am sure it will be once we start to value our bodies as much as our technology.

    I just returned from my orthopedic appointment, and I had a wonderful experience. Firstly, I was…read moregreeted by Joanna, who did my intake paperwork. I was on crutches, so she brought everything over to me, and she asked me to flag her down to pick everything up so I didn't have to struggle with my crutches. I have many medical appointments this last month, and she was the first one who made this very considerate and thoughtful offer. Abram and Alexis helped me with my X-rays. They were both very patient and kind. They made sure to help and support me. They were friendly throughout the process even when I stepped on a button that accidentally moved the bed. They were both very kind. Abigail checked me out. She was very patient in finding appointments that would work for me both as a follow up with Dr. Gipsman and for a first appointment for a second specialist in their office. She was smiling, friendly, professional, and kind. I met with Dr. Aaron M Gipsman to go over the results of the tests for my knee. He had excellent bedside manner. He answered all of mine and my husband's questions. He explained everything to our understanding and satisfaction. He explained everything he was doing during the exam and explained any findings afterward while consistently checking in with me to make sure I was fine. I was so pleased with this visit and team, that I came straight home to write this review. If you need an orthopedic surgeon for your knee, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Gipsman and his team.

And as I recover I would say that my surgeries were a success and becoming a success, all thanks to The attention at the Clinic, and the hospital, the time they took to answer my questions and to make sure that I understood everything that was being said and proposed, and their great efforts and professionalism.
