I first became Rob's patient when I was 7 years old because I have (was born with) Cerebral Palsy--a neuromuscular challenge impacting the way I walk. Rob was relentless in his efforts to improve my mobility--which he did drastically. He also guided my extensive rehabilitation following two CP-related surgeries. Now in my mid-thirties, I live a full, independent life--much credit and gratitude for that goes to Rob. I fell this past weekend and hurt my shoulder. I knew I needed Rob's help. He scheduled me a next-day appointment for deep tissue laser treatment--something I had not done previously. As always, he and Gretchen enthusiastically welcomed me into the office and were genuinely concerned about my injury. Rob thoroughly explained the laser treatment before we began and ensured I was comfortable throughout the treatment itself. I know it will expedite my healing process. Given all my experience with physical therapy throughout my life, I can say with certainty Rob and Gretchen are the best. They continually distinguish themselves with their commitment to learning/utilizing new treatment methodologies and seeking the most effective treatments for patients. What I love most about them, though, is the authentic compassion and care they demonstrate for all patients. It is an extraordinary experience knowing their jobs are so much more than "jobs" to them. I have referred countless people to them over the years and will continue to do so! If you need PT, schedule an appointment today! I promise you will be glad you did! read more

7 years ago, I first met Rob when my back pain was so bad that I had become extremely limited in all activities. Thru about 6 months he worked with my back, taught me what its problems were, exercises and movements to strengthen it and loosen up the rigidities that were near crippling. This year, close to my 80th birthday, my shoulder froze up with arthritis. After getting a shot that did help a little, I sought out Rob again for his help. He and his assistant Gretchen worked with me for 3 months until I had regained full mobility and again had much more knowledge of what to do to keep it the best I can. My back had flared up again, tho not so bad as before. Rob again adjusted exercises and treatments to include its needs. Thank you to Rob - for your deep caring, great expertise, kind teaching, knowledge and use of up-to-date techniques. I definitely recommend Joint Effort - but, fair warning, it is 'Joint Effort'. You will work - with Rob and Gretchen working right along with you. read more
