They don't use assistants or aides, although I have had good experience with some of these. The therapist works with one client at a time unlike some places where they juggle multiple people simultaneously. This means your therapist is always watching what you are doing rather than sending you off to do some exercises on your own. I went for recovery following a hip replacement. My therapist was Brittany Sullivan and she is superb. She always knew exactly where I was at in my recovery. She would ask what particular things I wanted to improve and added new exercises with increasing difficulty as I progressed. This was my first experience with them and I will definitely be going back anytime I need PT.

I have had an amazing experience with physiotherapist Joe Rigby. Joe is actively treating the…read morepatient for the 30 minutes of the session. Furthermore, he often attends to courses during the weekends to further improve his practice. This tells a lot on his mentality: providing the best care for his patients. In my case, sessions included mostly spotting areas of muscle tightness, active release and gastron. After the session (and not during, unlike most other PTs), I would then perform stretching and strengthening following what he had taught to me. I also very much appreciate his willingness to answer any question I would ask. I tend to ask many questions, typically of the form "What is the impact of X on medical condition Y, and why". For each question, he would carefully reflect on the human physiology and provide a very scientific answer (I'm familiar with medical research).

This woman has x-ray fingers, phenomenal expertise and a heart of gold. The week of the coronavirus shutdown, as I was beginning physical therapy with Carolyn for relatively minor lower back issues, I had an accident and severely injured my shoulder. Unable to get an MRI or a medical diagnosis because of the shutdown of all "elective" procedures, I turned to Carolyn for help. She accurately diagnosed the problem as a torn rotator cuff with involvement and possible tearing of my bicep. While her practice essentially shut down for months, Carolyn took advantage of her essential service status to guide me through a 6-month course of physical therapy to keep my shoulder from freezing up and becoming inoperable. It was very difficult to maintain the motivation to continue daily, somewhat painful 90-minute PT sessions every morning for 6 months, especially since the goal was not to get better but merely to keep from getting worse. But Carolyn kept me going, disinfecting the office specially for me and maintaining safe protocols in order to continue seeing me weekly and sometimes twice a week -- encouraging me, challenging me, caring about me and for me. When I finally saw a surgeon, he said that it was only because of the on-going physical therapy that I was even a candidate for surgery so long after the injury. I had the surgery almost 6 months to the day after the accident and Carolyn is now guiding me through what will be a lengthy recovery. I have all the faith in the world that she will get me through it and I encourage anyone in need of physical therapy to call her. You won't do better anywhere.X-ray fingers
