Working with LPI, and Dr. Gary in particular, was a fantastic experience. I cannot speak highly…read moreenough of the care and treatment I received. The experience was worth every non-insurance covered dollar, and more!
I injured my back as a college athlete, but did not receive an official diagnosis until a few years later. Most of the time, the injury wasn't an issue. But when it flared-up it affected every minute of my day. My back pain and tightness, at its worst, made it difficult to sit down, sit, stand up, and stand. There were times where I could not sit down at restaurants and could not stand through a church service. After the worst flare-up of the injury, which occurred while I was traveling across the country, I pursued a diagnosis from a doctor so I could seek physical therapy.
I started PT with a clinic that was covered by my insurance. At the same time, I saw an advertisement for LPI on Instagram. They were promoting a heavily discounted consultation, so I scheduled an appointment. I was impressed with my experience, but was concerned with the price difference between the clinic I was working with and LPI. I decided to proceed with the clinic covered by my insurance and LPI simultaneously, so I could compare the two. After a few weeks, I was convinced that the treatment from LPI would be far better than the treatment I was receiving with the other clinic, and I believed the pricing was appropriate. I ended my treatment plan with the other clinic and fully committed to working with Dr. Gary.
I was surprised when Dr. Gary began my treatment plan by working on my feet and ankles, where he identified limitations connected to what was going on with my back. He then wanted to work on my legs and hips. The time spent working on my feet, ankles, legs, and hips led to significant progress for my back, before we began specific work on my back, which we did eventually address. along with my core. All the progress I described was achieved over the course of a couple of months and one or two appointments a month.
Working with Dr. Gary was an investment in my health and my body and it is one of the best health choices I have ever made. I am months removed from treatment and everything we worked on has stuck and continues to benefit me. I am now more aware of how I move and how to move my body, and I move differently than ever before. I recently helped my parents with a move to a new house, and then myself moved to a new home a few months later. Moving is a great opportunity to hurt your back, but I was completely fine during both moves and I credit this to my work with Dr. Gary.
I am grateful for LPI and Dr. Gary and offer my highest recommendations of them to anyone considering Physical Therapy!
