I have experience with 4 different doctors at the Advanced Orthopedic Center in Punta Gorda and in…read morePort Charlotte as well as their physical therapists over the past decade. What I appreciate most about their practice is that they prescribe physical therapy if they think it may avoid surgery. I was suspicious of orthopedists previously (they are surgeons) and reluctant to go for help. I have been successfully treated twice previously for shoulder and foot injuries and am starting therapy now for a foot and ankle injury. I am optimistic that it will be successful too since they have excellent physical therapists. They also helped our son avoid neck surgery. I have heard only favorable comments from patients in post-surgical therapy. I do not hesitate to recommend the doctors and physical therapists at this practice. The practice is very busy as is true for all the better medical sources in our area. The influx of retirees, seasonal people and vacationers who flood our local infrastructure are often impatient with their demands and unrealistic expectations. Their numbers and demands often stress the doctors and support staff, and disappoint patients with the difficulty to get appointments or the necessity of imprecise appointments as they try to accommodate all patients.

I left three messages for Jenifer in the financial department with zero return calls. In the end my surgery was canceled without my knowledge the night before the surgery date due to nonpayment, I was unaware that I could not provide payment at time of intake. I had to return to my personal doctor for a new referral. Long story short I am still walking around with a broken hand three weeks later. The pain is unreal but the Advanced Orthopedic center could not care less.

Recently I had a recurrence of chronic shoulder pain, that originated decades ago due to…read moreimpingement syndrome. Over the past year I had gotten lax about regularly doing stretches and exercises, so the pain returned and was being stubborn despite stretching/exercising. So I needed to fine-tune my exercise routine. I reached out to Fitness Quest via their website to set up a consultation, but never got a response. I called the phone number for the Punta Gorda clinic and was informed that I'd first need to have my physician fax them a prescription for PT. I did so, and informed Fitness Quest (again via their website). Again no response, so I called the Punta Gorda clinic and asked if they'd received my fax. It turns out they did, but since I wasn't in their system they had discarded it. Fortunately it was still in their trash can, so they retrieved it and got me into their system and set up an appointment. The next day I had a very informative and productive consultation with Jason. I'd give them 5 stars if not for the initial communication difficulties, which might reflect some kind of disconnect between the "central office" and the various local clinics.

When I fist came into see Jason after my knee replacement, my motion was less than 90 degree's…read more After 7 visits I had 120 degree's, and was discharged. I find Jason and his staff friendly, knowledgeable and I really liked their approach combining stretching and strengthen exercises to get the range of motion back in my knee. At no point in my treatment did I ever feel it was too aggressive, which I cannot say about other PT organizations. I was extremely happy with Fitness Quest, and would highly recommend them to anyone.
