Anthony Young, DPT, has been extremely helpful in treating and managing my left shoulder os acromiale over the past two years. His care has made a real difference in my overall treatment, symptom management, and daily function. He is very personable, knowledgeable, and always takes the time to come up with unique exercises tailored to my specific needs and progress. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a physical therapist who is both skilled and genuinely invested in his patients' recovery. read more

I can't rave enough about DPT Calvin Thai. I came in with complete numbness in three fingers which was majorly impacting me as a hair stylist. Calvin took the time to hear how the issue had progressed and was very easy to communicate with. He clearly explained his diagnosis and his recommended course of treatment. Not only was he easy to work with but he managed to help me correct the issue in far fewer visits than I expected. I would recommend Calvin to absolutely anyone! read more

I am a runner and enjoy HIIT workouts at Shred415, came here due to a knee injury and within 8 sessions I was feeling back to myself and able to apply pressure to my knee. Anthony is very professional, thorough and well educated in PT. He takes the time to complete an assessment and knows your injury well enough to accurately treat. I have been to some other PT places and it's a quick rundown on yes/no questions that could have been googled. At Core Physical, you are treated with care. My sessions consisted of 30 minutes of stretching and then 30 minutes of exercises that are tailored to your treatment. Anthony also does a great job of following up and sending you off with the right information to continue healing once the sessions are over. I would gladly be back (but hopefully I don't need to lol) for any additional treatment needed. read more

I recently completed physical therapy with Dr. Anthony Young at Core's West Loop location and I could not be happier with my results. For several months I endured stubborn shoulder issues and was losing hope that I would get better. My shoulder issues were impacting my daily life in many ways--I was unable to sleep on it, could not participate in workouts involving weight overhead, could not do push-ups, and even something so minor as holding my work bag for long periods became difficult. I was especially upset at the impact on my workouts as I am really into Olympic weightlifting and my shoulder was limiting my progress. Prior to finding Anthony, I was treated by another physical therapist and a chiropractor for months and did not see any change in my condition. But to my surprise,after only 3 weeks of consistently working with Anthony and the Core team, my shoulder drastically improved and I was well enough to be released and return to my normal activities. Anthony was a college athlete and I believe this was especially helpful as he truly understood a lot of the issues I was running into with my lifting regimen, whereas my prior PT, who was not an athlete, did not seem to understand. I also appreciated that Anthony not only attentively worked on me at Core's studio, but also provided me with the education and tools to continue to address my troublesome shoulder at home. In addition to the stellar care that I received from Anthony, I also loved the convenience of being able to schedule my appointments online. Anthony has a flexible schedule that was convenient for me as a busy professional and I was always able to be seen. Another added plus is that this location is very convenient public transportation-wise, and I had no issue taking the el to the West Loop location during lunch or right after work. Thanks so much Anthony and Core Physical Therapy! I am so happy to be back to "beasting" my overhead lifts and once again sleeping on my favorite shoulder! :) read more

Anna at Core physical therapy is amazing!! She is sooo knowledgeable and makes you feel very comfortable and really is amazing at her line of work. She specializes in pelvic floor therapy but also has helped me with upper back issues and other problems that have arisen. In just the few initial visits with her I have learned so many valuable stretches and strengthening exercises that I really feel that everyone can benefit from seeing a physical therapist. She is personable and very encouraging! This is my first PT experience and I would highly recommend CPT and Anna. I also love her after appt email that has visual images of the exercises we did and a summary of our session together. She is very thorough and fantastic! read more

I have been to many PT practices and I can honestly say that Anthony is the best of the best. He is thorough, patient, and genuinely cares about his patients. Scheduling online was a breeze and there is a ton of flexibility. I appreciated that Anthony spent the full 30 minutes with me before I moved to the gym area to work through my exercises. I also liked the online portal which included videos of the exercises I was assigned. I can't recommend Anthony enough - strongly encourage you to check this spot out! read more

I had ACL reconstruction knee surgery with a hamstring graft. I had almost 30 appts at this location over the course of 4 months and worked primarily with Nick but sometimes with Anthony. Both are highly knowledgeable, educated, and provide excellent service for rehab. The massaging machine was great to loosen up those tight muscles on every visit. The program and progression of exercises was fantastic and didn't allow me to get stuck at any point during rehab. I feel very confident in my ability to continue my rehab program on my own as they have provided the necessary guidance to get back to playing basketball and 100% recovery. Thanks for all that you did for my knee. read more

I am slow to leave negative reviews but after seeing how much was charged for the service I received I feel compelled. I went in with severe tightness in my right glute muscle and it was clear that the person I dealt with had no idea how to correctly diagnose the root cause and instead went about trying to loosen the glute which I had explained repeatedly had proven a temporary fix that I had been trying myself for the past few weeks with no success. He then worked on it for a while with the Theragun and we were done. I went to my normal massage therapist when I went home on holidays and within 5 mins he had diagnosed the core issue and I have not looked back since. $350 for the service I received here. Laughable. For the record, I had been to Kristen in the Core Lincoln Park location before moving and my service was excellent. Unfortunately she is no longer there. read more

I've been going to core PT for shoulder rehab for the past 6 months and have noticed such a difference. Staff, all of them but especially Nick, is knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend them to anyone in need to physical therapy. read more

Anthony Young is dedicated to his profession. The personalised time is taken to evaluate your injury, consult with the patient for their individual goals and then devise a treatment plan. What's ideal about this location is the attention given to each individual patient. One-on-one time is scheduled to meet and then work. read more

This was my first time in PT. I injured my leg and I was in bad shape. Anthony is exceptional. He is incredibly knowledgeable and even had the patience to answer all of my questions. As I hobbled around on crutches over the holidays and people asked about my PT experience, they looked at me funny when I said, "I love PT!" Anyone who has had a physically limiting injury knows that PT is not easy! Anthony really made a difference. A huge plus is online scheduling. Staff made themselves available to make sure I had the proper treatment over the holidays so I could get back to normal as soon as possible. Again, this is my first time in PT but I think I returned to physical activity faster because of the personalized treatment I received at Core PT in the West Loop. read more

Anthony & the team at Core did an incredible job helping me recover from a lower back injury. Thorough and attentive to exactly what you're trying to achieve, Anthony makes sure that you are progressing through therapy while making sure you're staying within your limits and not overdoing things. He knows his stuff and is extremely professional. I worked with Core for 4 weeks and made amazing progress. Highly recommended! read more

Had a great experience with David Vlaich at Core PT. West Loop location was easy to get to / park at. Great facility. David was very responsive, friendly, and worked hard with me in and out of the facility to get my wrist rehabbed over several weeks. Strong recommend. read more

Anthony is such a great therapist! I highly recommend this office to get you back healed! The personal one on one attention from their staff really makes a difference! read more

I saw David for physical therapy at Core's West Loop location after trying (and failing) to find an explanation with multiple doctors for a mysterious post-COVID limp. David is a fantastic PT - he is knowledgeable and patient, and checks in constantly to make sure nothing is causing pain. His initial evaluation was super thorough, and I felt confident in his recommendations throughout. Trying to relearn to walk was fairly embarrassing, but David has a great sense of humor and is very kind, so I didn't feel too embarrassed tripping over myself. Unfortunately, I only had a few weeks of visits with him due to an upcoming move, but he volunteered to check in in a few weeks to see if things are improving, and to help find a PT in my new location if I still need help. Also, Core's West Loop space is nicely outfitted and very clean. Would definitely recommend Core/David if you're looking for a PT! read more

I have a very positive experience at Core Physical Therapy! I chose the practice due to its location; it was close to work and therefore easier for me to make consistent appointments. Anthony is very warm and personable, and his approach and feedback supported my healing. I would definitely recommend this practice! read more

Anthony is amazing! I went to Core PT because I was having knee issues. Anthony taught me the science behind the pain, and showed me stretches and exercises to alleviate the pain. He is very knowledgeable and patient. I left feeling like I had the right tools to continue keeping the pain at bay. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about Anthony and the team at Core Physical Therapy. Anthony is extremely knowledgable, attentive, and truly cares about his patients. He develops personalized rehabilitation programs that are tailored to the individual and the injury. Anthony has helped me recover from a shoulder reconstruction and subsequently a hip injury. I would recommend Anthony and the Core Physical Therapy team to anyone looking for PT services. read more

I saw Anthony for my shoulder and hamstring,and he is extremely knowledgeable and kind. I saw improvements quickly and remember the first night I got a full nights sleep and was pain-free. I highly recommend Anthony for just about injury. He is patient, and his schedule is flexible if you work full time. His assist, Lexi, is great as well. I really enjoyed my time there, and would highly recommend them! read more

I've played competitive sports all my life from football to track, soccer, baseball, basketball, and lacrosse. Now a bit older, having my first torn muscle come from a rec kickball league was fairly embarrassing and far more painful than I imagined. Anthony is one of the best PT's I've ever worked with and his staff is unparalleled. They are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and truly care about you as a person. After working with Anthony and Mercedes for 5 months I would highly recommend them to anyone with minor or major injuries. read more

I had a wonderful experience here. Jason understands how hard labor is on the female body and is amazing at getting you to feel better and get back on your feet! He always worked around my schedule and understood how hard it is to get away with a new baby. read more

Earlier in the Fall, I was looking for a Physical Therapist in the West Loop area. So many great places to chose from, but the moment I chatted with Core Physical Therapy, I knew this was the spot for me! The initial person who I spoke to over the phone on services, rates, etc. was willing to work with my individual situation and preferences for care. I really appreciate the understanding and flexibility with my schedule, number of sessions, and payment methods. Thank goodness I chose Core Physical Therapy! I was paired up with Nick Katsiris, a wonderful physical therapist, and I couldn't been have happier with my care and services. He worked one-on-one with me over many weeks to rehabilitate a fitness-related shoulder injury. He was patient and kind and very knowledgeable. I truly felt like I was in good hands with my care. I also loved the location - the atmosphere was warm, friendly, and conducive to healing! I highly recommend Core Physical Therapy! In a sea of physical therapists, they are a beacon of light in the West Loop! read more

Had come in for a calf strain due to playing soccer. I met with Anthony for the pre-screening they offer for free and with what I told him and what he assessed, we were able to start PT the following week. Anthony was not available at the time for my PT, so I was paired with Nick! Nick was awesome at listening to what was hurting, and giving direction on what I can or cannot do. He helped me through the 4-5 weeks of rehabbing the calf until I was fit enough to go back and play again. Nothing put positive experiences with Nick and the rest of the staff at core! read more

I saw Jason for multiple problems--primarily foot and back. He determined that all my pain issues were likely coming from a defect in my lumbar spine which was causing weakness and overtaxing of the functioning muscles. His analysis made sense. His manipulations and exercises helped get me functioning (dancing & walking) again after months of inactivity and reduced my pain. (By the way, he does dry needling.) He has wonderful qualities that helped me progress: he is sympathetic, analytical, flexible, and makes a good, low-key cheerleader. At times, he had to explain to me over and over why I was in pain and what I needed to do; but he never seemed impatient. He knows what information you need to motivate you. I was also able to schedule appointments easily to fit my schedule. I would highly recommend Jason, who is the owner of the business as well as a therapist. He knows a lot, can think out of the box, is a genuinely caring person, and he's on your side. Outstanding physical therapist; someone you should know. read more

Jason and Sarah were outta sight! Both so professional, knowledgeable, experienced and caring in their approach to my rehabilitation. I always felt as if I was in good hands and my best interests and abilities were taken into consideration in their approach to my recovery. Both the Loop and West Loop locations were lovely, well equipped and convenient. I would without hesitation recommend their services (in fact I already have to my friends and family). I cannot sincerely sing their praises enough! :-) read more

Anthony Young was incredible to work with. He analyzed my ankle injury and really helped get me back on my feet. He's patient, easy to get along with and extremely knowledgeable in treatment. He also sends detailed follow-up on what to do when you aren't in the office and is readily available for any follow-up or appointment changes. As a side note, the online system to book appointments is very user-friendly. I would highly recommend seeing Anthony if you have any PT need. read more

Anthony was absolutely great to work with. There was a very personalized approach to my sprained neck that he evaluated and helped get me to pain free within a few months. He was thoughtful and creative in his treatment and it was great knowing I'd be working with him and not an array of other therapists each week. The scheduling system is online/easy to use which allowed each appointment to work into my schedule. Lastly, he took a personalized approach to my insurance needs too. Highly recommend Anthony for anyone thinking about treatment - and would go back if I ever had another issue (hopefully not!). read more

I went yesterday, per the great reviews on Yelp. It did live up to the high expectations I had. The facility is clean and beautiful. Anthony was amazing. He's very professional, patient, and thorough. I was very impressed with my PT and I am planning on carrying out the rest of my sessions at Core. I appreciate the videos available so that I do my exercises correctly at home as well. I also REALLY appreciate the fact that Anthony was honest. My script said PT 3xs a week, but he said 2xs would be sufficient. As a mother of two young boys, this was a relief!! He could've taken advantage and he didn't. I highly recommend Core PT and Anthony:) read more

If you are looking for specialized, hands-on, customized PT then look no further. Anthony excels at creating a program specific to patients. I highly recommend this versus big-box clinics. read more

I've had a great experience with my treatment so far. I am about half way through, and I have no complaints. Jason works with my schedule and you can make appointments online. He goes above and beyond any doctor I have worked with, by providing personalized treatment, in-depth research on the issue you're having, and by taking his time to explain what is going on. I've had an ankle issue for over a year and I am finally starting to see some improvement thanks to him. It is very refreshing, since I have gotten the run around with three other doctors. It's because Jason gets to know his patients, that he can effectively treat them. read more

Anthony is thorough, professional and very helpful. I went to see him after being seen over a 1.5 month period at another practice. I was not getting the help that I needed, and my knee was not recovering. I could tell right away that Anthony's care was different. He was very holistic in treating my knee, working on my alignment and strength. I will highly recommend Anthony to anyone who needs PT in the area! read more

There aren't enough good things to say about this place! Anthony and Lexi were both fantastic to work with. I went to Core PT West Loop from Sep 2018 to Jan 2019 and attribute my full recovery from severe plantar fasciitis/achilles tendinitis to the therapy they provided. Having been to PT in the past, Anthony stands out as one of the best. His approach is extremely patient, thorough, and professional. He's extremely knowledgable and is quick to suggest alternative options when things aren't progressing. I had never tried dry needling before visiting Core PT West Loop, but Anthony introduced it to me gradually which put my nerves at ease. I found it to be extremely therapeutic and believe it had a great impact on accelerating my recovery. Schedules always ran on time, and Anthony always spent a full 30 minutes with me before I shifted to exercises with Lexi, who was also very friendly & professional. In addition, the online scheduling tool is easy to use and offers a variety of appointments from early morning to evening all days of the week. Highly recommended!!! read more

I've had to go through physical therapy in the past; this is the first time it's been personalized with the appropriate level of treatment, keeping my issues top of mind. The amount of time spend with Jason for each session is just right. I've had a great experience so far! read more

I have had three sessions with Jason for an issue in my spine/neck that I have been suffering with for almost a year, and I am already seeing progress. He is a sincere, caring, expert medical professional, and I am very glad that I discovered him. I have had experience with physical therapy previously and have never encountered a therapist as thorough with his evaluation and explanations as Jason. read more

If you are looking for physical therapy or a consultation on an injury Core Physical Therapy is the place you should go. I have been in therapy since January and it has been extremely helpful with my lower back and elbow pains. I had been living with back pain for 3 years and decided to do something about it. My wife visited this practice and raved about how I need to go there. She was right. The level of support and expertise I had with my condition immediately relieved me of any skepticism about physical therapy. Doc Jason truly cares about your recovery and will tailor each session and "home work" so that you will find relief fast and educate you on how to prevent injury or in my case work to cure it and strengthen my core. I have been going once a week and following the prescribed work out pattern. I was able to run an 8K last week without concern and have been pain free with my back for over a month. A nice feature with the clinic is that there are other injury professionals in the building so if Chiropractic care, rolfing, massage therapy, and acupuncture is something you need or was recommended some of the best people in the city all collaborate on your case for the best combine care you can receive. The staff is concerned about your well being and not the number of sessions you will need to "get better". If you are interested in getting back to life without pain or getting back into exercise after years away, this is the place you need to start with! They have locations around the city and have extremely flexible working hours to fit your schedule. Parking is super easy to find and you wont find a nicer reception staff waiting to greet you at the door and get your ready for your appointment. read more
