Dr. Wu is exactly what my mother and I needed! He is incredibly thorough, detailed, and meticulous…read morewith his work. He makes the to explain medical terms and anatomical functions of your conditions and best available procedures to correct the conditions. Furthermore, he is comfortable with going into greater details about how the procedure/ procedures will improve the medical conditions. I was so surprised that after decades of my mother having spinal surgeries and epidurals by traditional orthopedic surgeons, she was left is severe debilitating pain. Her only recourse was pain medication, which left her tired, sleepy, and hopeless every day. She had a L5/S1 fusion and c4/c5 herniated disk surgery, and recently was diagnosed with spondyliothis/ degenerative spine condition. To make matters worse, the L5/S1 fusion has compacted the above vertebrae and worn down the cushion in L4 to the point of bone on bone. We had been searching for a remedy for years, and we're only offered cortisone, epidurals, and ultimately fusion surgery (again), by doctor after doctor. Until.... We met Dr. Wu. In 15 minutes he explained an outpatient procedure that we had never heard of, that for the first time - actually made sense! So we gave it a try. In 15 minutes, Dr. Wu completed his recommended procedure on my mother. In 2 days, she was walking without a walking stick/ cane, not needing wheelchair assistance, not debilitated by severe pain, nor completely dependent on medications like nerve modulators, or opioid pain killers, or muscle relaxants to maintain her daily activities. A week later, I am truly amazed that his work has reduced her pain by more than 60% and now she is walking and smiling and laughing again. She has improved drastically, and now I am blessed to enjoy holding her hand while walking together - something we have not done since I was much younger. I missed so many years of this special experience with her. Thank you so much, Dr. Wu; for giving us new memories to rekindle. PS. Thank you for diagnosing and treating my bursitis. I can bend my knee again and walk without a painful limp. I had no idea the problem could be fixed so quickly and feel so much better! Sincerely, Yamina

I've worked with two of their physical therapists as well as several of the assistants, and everyone has been wonderful. They're incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely easy to talk to. You can tell that the people who work there truly enjoy what they do and enjoy working together, which creates such a positive and comfortable environment. I also really appreciate how kind and friendly the front desk team is. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed and treated with care and respect.

Thankfully, I was able to see Isaac just a few days after the injury, and my visit gave me so much comfort and reassurance. I had also started experiencing neck and shoulder pain, which Isaac quickly recognized was most likely from the way I had been using my crutches. He corrected my technique, showed me the proper way to use them, and immediately helped relieve some of the discomfort. That alone was incredibly helpful! Isaac was very thoughtful, professional, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain what was going on and gave me specific exercises to do at home so I can be proactive in my recovery. I'm hopeful that with the right care and exercises, I'll be able to get back to running, yoga, and my fitness classes soon! I'm planning to see him again in a week to make sure I'm healing properly, and I'm so grateful to have found someone I feel confident trusting with my recovery. I would definitely recommend Isaac to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and caring sports physical therapist!

We had our initial evaluation with Dr. Isaac today, and we were impressed with how thorough and attentive he was throughout the evaluation.

He also corrected her form to ensure she is getting the most benefit from her strength training program. We appreciate the time and expertise he provided and are looking forward to working with him to help close the strength deficit and, most importantly, get our daughter safely and confidently back on the pitch!

From the very beginning, the care I've received has been thoughtful, attentive, and encouraging. Erin, my physical therapist, has been instrumental in my recovery. She focuses on strengthening my core and legs while carefully observing and listening during each session. Thanks to her attention to detail, I've learned that my knee positioning and the way I've been favoring it contributed to stiffness and limited rotation in my hip. She consistently provides targeted exercises to correct these issues and build strength, and I truly feel the progress. I can actually stand straight now. Able and Cami also make a big difference in the overall experience. They always greet us with smiles and laughter, which makes each visit enjoyable and helps the time pass quickly. Able, in particular, is very helpful with guiding proper posture and ensuring correct technique during exercises. I'm grateful for the entire team's support and dedication--it's made a meaningful impact on my recovery journey.

I don't know what full recovery looks like a couple of months from now in terms of my strength and athletic capacity compared to before, but it's 100% guaranteed to be far better than the massive limitations I would've had to live with for the rest of my life had Dr Nuccion not been able to pull off the surgery despite the delay.

Kept telling me that these are all new products and all sales are final. She also mentioned twice that she did not want her braces to stink after I tried them on. WTH! That in itself is really insulting to say to customers. I am wearing new sandals and I just took a shower before I got there. I needed the brace to I just purchased the one that fit. The store does bill insurance for products and services but, she told me flat out that I would have to pay for the brace and bill my insurance if I wanted to be reimbursed.

But they insisted I got two and sent letters to my home and the collection agency continued to send letters, so I sent them money, and now, they have my brace (which I never used) and have my money (for the brace I never received).
