I had a fantastic experience with Drysdale Physical Therapy over the 14-15 appointments I had over an almost five month span. I had a lower back injury/disc issue with immense pain that was so bad it actually resulted in my going to the hospital, and culminating with a referral to Drysdale Physical Therapy. I am so glad I did. Dr. Drysdale is a personable, kind man who really cares about his patients and sincerely wants to get to know them and help get them back on track and pain free. You can see his sincerity and rapport with his patients in how they greet him when they walk in for their appointments (and I noticed some repeat patients like myself on multiple occasions). There's a feeling of genuineness and sincerity in his interactions with his patients and his staff; they all seem to genuinely enjoy working together and with their patients. His staff is very friendly, and I love how they are an energetic and motivated team--especially at 7:00 am! His team of PTs, massage therapists, and assistants were so helpful in getting me back to a "0" pain level and being able to walk, exercise, lift objects, work, etc as I did before I was injured. You won't regret going to Drysdale PT. A couple of things to note: First, you won't see Dr. Drysdale at every single appointment because of the number of patients and staff he has to supervise, which is completely reasonable. I have met some people who are kind of entitled and only ever want to be seen by the guy whose name is on the building, which in my opinion is an unreasonable expectation for a patient to have. However, this was never a problem because his other therapists are amazing! Also, Dr. Drysdale will see you during intermittent progress checks that you have after a certain number of appointments. So you'll never feel "neglected." Second, Dr. Drysdale warned me at the first appt that there would be an initial period where the pain would likely increase after treatment started, and then slowly get better. This was true for me. So if you don't see improvement immediately, I really recommend you trust the process and not get frustrated or think it isn't working. I had very tangible positive results after about a month, started to feel better and reduced my appointments, then had a recurrence of pain, and went back for another two months and am now pain free. Thank you Dr. Drysdale, and all of your staff for your help! I would trust you and your staff with taking care of me and my family without hesitation! read more

Drysdale PT offers the best physical therapy in Fresno. And I don't say this without experience. I have worked with various physical therapy clinics because I previously worked as a sales rep for a DME company. Elisha and Hannah at the front are welcoming and dedicated! Their PTAs, especially Miriam, make you feel understood and well cared for. They consider what will best improve their patient's lives not only short-term, but long-term. Even their massage therapist, Nessi, provides personalized care. Their aides are also always alert and attentive, assisting with exercises or setting up modalities. PT George and PT Lee have loads of experience and prioritize their patients. They can evaluate your symptoms and provide education to help you improve. Everyone here is so welcoming even when it is busy. Even though I have never been referred to the PT, the providers and staff have adjusted to me. I will forever recommend anyone in need of chiropractic or rehabilitation care there! Thank you, Drysdale PT, for partnering with me, and I know if I ever do have issues, I will be well taken care of here! read more

After my orthopedic doctor took x-rays and diagnosed my back pain, he referred me to Drysdale Physical Therapy. I'm so glad he did! During my first visit, Dr. Drysdale did a comprehensive evaluation. It was immediately clear that he is extremely knowledgeable and competent. He found the underlying cause of my pain, then prescribed a treatment program that would address the cause - not just treat the symptoms. I looked forward to each visit. The atmosphere is upbeat and positive, and like Dr. Drysdale, each assistant who helped me was friendly, professional and highly skilled. Through a combination of physical adjustments, massage, specially tailored exercises, ice and electrical stimulation, in four sessions, and my pain was gone. Besides Dr. Drysdale, I want to give a special thanks to Miriam, who gave me exercises to do at home that have been surprisingly effective. Thanks also to Hannah at the front desk who went over and above to help get the necessary paperwork from my referring doctor. I will definitely go back to Drysdale PT for any future needs. Highly recommended!! read more

The place is a cash cow. They load up on patients and you will see an actual therapist for about 5 minutes. Then there are a gaggle of therapy aids who have very little effect that wander from patient to patient. You will spend a fair amount of time waiting. The therapy aids did not ensure physical training was being done correctly. When using Electric Muscle Stimulation, the aid put it on the wrong part of my body twice. To add insult to this, there is a heavy jock-bro environment. I cancelled after my second visit. The therapists themselves are good and the diagnosis was spot on. They are just maximizing profit at the cost of treatment. read more

I wish that we were given the opportunity to give more than 5 star reviews as I would definitely give a higher star rating to Drysdale Physical Therapy. I have been going to them for approximately 3 months now for problems with my right leg and now my left leg. I am so impressed with the entire staff there from the front desk receptionist to the back therapy room employees. Especially Miriam one of the therapists. She has pushed me to where I thought I could never go. Before going to Drysdale PT I could not even walk 1/4 of a mile without extreme pain in my lower back. I can now walk a mile plus with no pain whatsoever. I can truly say that I will never go to any other therapist but Drysdale. I continually praise the staff there to my family and friends and they can see the difference in me also. Given them a call today, you won't be sorry. read more

The treatment at Drysdale is top notch and Miriam does an amazing job, along with all of the aids.

I wanted to take the time to compliment Dr. Drysdale and his entire staff for their professionalism, and the individualized treatment plans. The care I received was both beneficial to the recovery of my injury and the sessions themselves were enjoyable. I was treated more like a friend than a patient. It was the best experience I've had at a physical therapy facility. From the girls at the front desk and everyone else that is involved with your care made me look forward to my appointments. I'd never go anywhere else!!! read more

Everyone is competent, personable, and caring. They were able to get me walking unassisted following nerve damage in my back and legs. Highly recommended! read more

I don't know why it's taken me so long to write this review. It's not because it isn't deserved. Drysdale Physical Therapy is the place you want to go to heal, get better and be your best self. This is my second experience with them and I couldn't be happier with my recovery. I never thought I'd be the same after cervical fusion, but my range of motion is better than I ever thought it would be. Thank you Lee! When you walk in you're greeted by friendly faces and the treatment area is the same. You're always made to feel comfortable and looked after by people who know what they're doing. The treatment tables are carefully cleaned after each patient and the entire facility is always immaculate. My only complaint would be about the 2 dead bushes outside the back windows! I'd recommend Drysdale PT to anyone. read more

Thanks to Dr Drysdale and his staff. A special thanks to Miriam who helped me with my back pain. All of the staff is friendly and gives great attention to the issues that you may have. Highly recommended! read more

Absolutely!!! Hands down the best staff. Friendly, Prompt, and they treat everyone like they've known you forever. Ontop of that the care is top notch. They explain everything and make sure you aren't sitting with down time. They take great care of all their clients. Highly recommend.!! read more

I see Dr. Lee for my knees and shoulders, and he's one of the best doctors and physical therapists I've ever met. Not only is he highly skilled, but he's also a genuinely kind and compassionate person. He truly listens to his patients and is always there to offer support. The overall atmosphere at the clinic is amazing--everyone on staff is friendly, welcoming, and treats you with respect. I feel incredibly fortunate and grateful to receive care from such a dedicated and caring team. read more

The Therapists and their staff are all high quality. Their training is over the top. They care about your personal needs for therapy and address all your issues in a professional and caring method. They have helped me personally change my daily pain levels from 9&10 levels to as low as 2 & 3. I couldn't recommend a better therapy group! read more

My well-renowned back surgeon recommended George and Drysdale Physical Therapy to me after I went on my own and tried another local therapy office. Thank goodness! I get personal care and you can tell it is quality because the place is usually full and busy. And Miriam will massage and work your muscles with such healing hands. I finally have found the best place for me. read more

When my Dr. 1st sent me to Drysdale Physical Therapy, I felt hesitant to go because it wasn't close to where I live but I quickly felt very comfortable there. They are all so kind and comforting and knowledgeable. I highly recommend trying them, if you ever need therapy. read more

I was referred for diagnosis of a twitch that had developed in my left buttock, a suspected sacroiliac problem that might require surgery. Dr. Drysdale listened carefully and then checked me out mechanically. He noted that my right foot was slightly turned out. He sorted through my tangle of hip and butt muscles and gristle, manipulating each bit into its proper position. Then Dr. Drysdale stretched me out on a table and, holding my left leg tight to his shoulder, gave it a sharp tug. That fixed a misalignment of about 60 years' duration. I could only say "Wow!" The realignment was locked into place by follow-up therapy, five more visits. Even during a pandemic, Drysdale PT is a nice place to visit. Staff are unfailingly pleasant and professional. read more

I'm so glad that my doctor recommended Drysdale Physical Therapy. They are kind, informative and a wonderful bunch of people who, actually, care for me. I've been to several PT clinics and this one is above and beyond helpful to my recovery. My therapist is Tyler, who is amazing, not to say all the others aren't great, because they all are. I will recommend this clinic to anyone who needs Pt. read more

The doctor, therapists and aids are Drysdale PT are some of the kindest, sweetest people I've ever been to for physical therapy. They take their time to get to know you and your injury and do a great job making sure you get better. They're very hands on and friendly and help you through every step of you physical therapy journey. I highly recommend them to anyone who us looking for a healing touch. read more

George, Lee, Tyler and everyone working there wants to help you work through the pain and get well. They care and go out of their way to help you improve. I have been going to Drysdale physical therapy for 17 years and have never been disappointed in the care that I have received. Thank you all for your help. Mike Dean read more

I have not been a a fan of physical therapy in the past as it hasn't helped. My mind is changed. I have been to Drysdale Physical Therapy for 2 different problems and George did some magic and made them go away. Thanks to George and his staff. They are great and I highly recommend Drysdale Physical Therapy. After several years, I had another issue with my lower back. I went back to George for PT and I'm happy to say my back has no pain. They are great at what they do. I hope that I won't need to go back, but if pain returns, I'll be back. Thanks George. read more

I've been having pain in my neck, shoulders and now forearm for a long time. Went to a chiropractor for several months and no relief. A friend of mine told me I needed to see Dr Drysdale for Physical Therapy. I figured I had nothing to lose and the pain was getting worse. Within minutes Dr Drysdale knew what was causing my pain! I honestly cried when I left the office because finally someone figured it out and he explained in detail why I was suffering. I've been going twice a week for a few weeks and am feeling better! Dr. Drysdale's team is phenomenal! The environment is warm and friendly (even when I'm not) you can tell it's a good place to work and the team loves what they do! read more

I have been to Drysdale two separate times for two different areas of my back. The first time around I was saved from needing a back brace for my scoliosis, Dr. Drysdale gave me exercises I've been using for years. The second time around reminded me why I loved being at their office so much. Everyone is so kind, they check in quickly if they see you're not being worked on and they have given me the tools I need to move forward in reducing a curve on my upper spine. I'm very sad to go but I recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you Tyler, George, Carlos, Immanuel, McKay, Andrew, Priscilla, Mrs. Chaudhary and everyone else for making each visit to the office a comfortable and welcoming. read more

Two years ago, after surgery on my left shoulder, i checked with friends and medical professionals where they recommend I should go for physical therapy. They all recommended Dr. Drysdale. I had a great experience and an excellent recovery with full range of motion without pain, restored. Four weeks ago, I had the same surgery on my right shoulder. Of course, I went back to Dr. Drysdale. And, this recovery is also going well. Dr. Drysdale's practice is a professional, non-i stitutional, warm environment where the staff and he have their patients well being foremost in their practice. It's clear they all keep up to date on their training and new developments in the field of physical therapy. I highly recommend Drysdale Physical Therapy. read more

Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. I have brought multiple family members here and they received the best care. My brother is extremely special needs and everyone was very kind and helpful. They spent extra time listening to his complications and working with his ability level. There's a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere in the office. Highly recommended. read more

I have been with Drysdale for several different issues over the years. George (Dr. Drysdale) is a true genius at diagnosing and getting you healed with the exact right modalities. And my husband has worked with Lee as well and has had excellent results and good direction from him. There is also a first-class support staff offering hands-on healing and treatment as well as guiding you through exercises to strengthen you and get you back into your life. I have had diverse issues but have never had anything they can't address and it's always done with an upbeat attitude, humor, and complete compassion coupled with their outstanding skills. I send my friends here and feel it is the premier physical therapy facility in the valley. I've been to others and some have been helpful but nothing at this level. I hope to never have to go anywhere else. Go with confidence and during Covid they have the best protocols in place, air filters going constantly, everyone is masked and socially distanced including clients, and they are committed to keeping everyone healthy. This is THE place to be. read more

Dr. Drysdale is amazing, I have been suffering from TMJ for years with no relief, over the last month I finally have relief I have never felt before and am so thankful!!! between him and Mr. Lee I have never been happier and pain free. Nessi and Luke are the bomb when it comes to massager, the only thing I wish is that the massages were longer hahaha. I highly recommend this place, they have taken care of not only me but my mother and father as well. Thanks again guys!!! read more

I do would not recommend Drysdale Physical Therapy to an athlete or anyone else that wants a high-performance clinic. My experience at Drysdale PhysicalTherapy was sub-par; I actually walked out of the clinic during a session because of lack of attention from the PT. My rating is based on: 1) Lack of attention from Physical Therapist; 2) Lack of knowledge of physical therapist; 3) Lack of knowledge of staff. In my former life as an 8 year minor leaguer, I had 5 surgeries and recovered with some of the best therapists in the world; so I know good care when I see it. I also went to a clinic before Drysdale (in orange county) and a clinic after Drysdale (in San Jose) so I have first-hand experience with other clinics for this same ACL recovery. 1) The clinic was often over-crowded with patients. While there may have been enough space for the patients, there were not enough therapists. A typical 1 hour therapy session resulted in 5-10 minutes of hands-on time with the therapist. I'm not sure if insurance companies have a minimum time PTs need to spend with a patient, in order to bill, but I'd be surprised if it was less than 10 minutes for an hour long appointment. 2) Physical therapist had masters degree (not doctorate). He did not have much experience in post-ACL surgery therapy. While he hadn't led many patients through this type of recovery, he did seem to know the basics. The PT did NOT do manual therapy/massage of the injured leg (which is standard practice for this type of recovery). 3) The PT Aides were terribly inexperienced. The PT aides performed the massage of my knee, but had NO IDEA WHAT THEY WERE DOING. They frequently massaged the wrong way, didn't have good pressure control and did not have an idea why/what they were doing. Additionally, they were not instructed on how to use the ultra-sound machine. Ultra sound doesn't even have any researched-based results for post-acl recovery. While most of my experience was bad, there were some good things: The staff was friendly Some of the clientele seemed very happy, although most of these people did not appear to have much experience with PT or athletics (or maybe they just didn't know what good PT clinics offer, so they didn't have anything to compare). read more

After a disastrous experience with a physical therapist in the town where I am currently living, I chose to spend a month in Fresno just to return to George and his amazing staff to help me out with my weird hip issues. He really helped me fix up my back in 2003 and I'm happy to say that in 2010, Drysdale Physical Therapy is still up to the same high standard of quality. The staff here is personable, attentive, and eager to answer your questions. You do not get stuffed in a room with a magazine and a shocker machine to wonder if your therapist is going to really come back from Starbucks. Instead, patients warm up on a bicycle, then see an assistant for ultrasound and whatever the little electrical machine is called, then massage therapy, and finally there is time with the physical therapist himself. And best of all, they give you effective and numerous exercises to do at home to help yourself. They actually want to get their patients well, not drag out treatment until the next Harry Potter film comes out. Both therapists really take time with their patients and try to get to the root of the problem. I really needed help in a short amount of time and didn't want to pussyfoot around finding someone new, and they have helped me. read more

After a few weeks of continued shoulder pain associated with working out, I decided to seek professional help. Of course I turned to Yelp and was extremely fortunate to find Drysdale PT. The entire experience is top notch, from the front desk to the back room. There is no question that everyone is passionate and caring for their clients. I have been working with Robby for the past two weeks. He takes the time to do a full assessment and diagnose what exactly the problem may be, mixes in some humor and recommends a course of action to correct your issue. I'm convinced that if he wasn't a physical therapist he would be a comedian. I'm looking forward to getting better but will actually miss coming here! read more

The entire staff at Drysdale Physical Therapy is not only professional but also extremely friendly. I came here following an auto accident; I had both neck and back pain as well as terrible headaches. After the first session with Robby, I could tell a marked difference in the intensity of my headaches. By the third session, my headaches were virtually nonexistent. Robby and the physical therapy assistants asked questions each visit to track progress and make sure the affected areas were being treated effectively. I was also given exercises to do at home to aid in the recovery process. My first physical therapy experience, I wasn't sure what to expect and went in a little nervous. However, the warm welcome of the staff and their patience explaining to me the PT process along with the great results - no more headaches and uninhibited neck and back movement - I'm truly grateful for Drysdale and am now definitely a believer in physical therapy. read more

Great physical therapy. They are truly a team and everyone works to make sure you get the best results. I've been there for three weeks and see incredible results. The team makes you feel comfortable and gives you just enough push to get to the finish line. read more

Just finished my final session with Lee. Gonna miss him and his professional abilities to provide the necessary work to heal my pains and to educate me about what's going on with my SI Joint and IT Band. Did I mention that I'm gonna miss him? Actually, the entire team is very professional and so friendly, it felt like a family visit every time I was there. Gonna miss you guys! :) read more

I can honestly say George is a God send. He has helped me so much with my back pain. The entire facility has always been clean. The staff is just amazing. From the moment you walk in you feel at home. I highly recommend Drysdale to those suffering from pain. You wont regret it:) read more

I have been extremely impressed with Drysdale Physical Therapy. Lee was my therapist for several months. I found him to be knowledgeable, caring and supportive. He explained thoroughly what options I had with my treatment plan. After 3 1/2 months of therapy, I am experiencing less pain and feel much stronger. All of the staff are caring and supportive - a great environment all the way around. read more

First visit here. Felt very comfortable and welcome. Lee, my therapist was awesome. He pulled my leg which adjusted my hip. Can't believe how much relief that was after just my initial visit. I really like it here cause they take their time with you and show you how to use the machines and out patient care. The rest of the staff is great too. I highly recommend this place to anyone in need of physical therapy. read more

I have never felt better in my life. Came in for business to business appointment, and ended up getting a quick session to check out my body, come to find out, the reason for my back and shoulder and neck pain was from being out of alignment, a few quick seconds for each part of my body and I feel like a million bucks. That's to George, and his fantastic staff for making me not only feel better. But also feel special and important. Thanks guys. Great visit, and I will be sending my wife next lol read more

I really enjoy how George explains things in terms that we understand. My wife and I are always amazed at how well he understands our pain and makes us feel better. Excellent staff!!! read more

I am highly recommending Dysdale Physical Therapy to anyone looking or needing it. George and his staff are the best! They are professional, full of knowledge and the best part....they make you feel like family. A very relaxed atmosphere and you just want to keep going back. They nursed me back to health and I am healthier than ever thanks to all the wonderful staff. No more pain...I am just sad not to see everyone. I will come back to visit to say Hi! read more

I've been fighting lower back issues for a couple of years. Have tried chiropractor, another PT in Fresno, massage and muscle activation...all with slow and limited recovery. Decided to try Drysdale based on reviews and so glad I did. I had a huge improvement in mobility after just 1 appt w/Lee and after only a few sessions (plus stretches & exercises I do at home) I am back on the bike and training for a century! The facility is clean, all the staff is friendly and I can't say enough good things about Lee. read more

Everyone here is amazing. They will fix the aches, pains and injuries. You will leave feeling like a million bucks!
