In January 2025, I visited Dr. Kenneth Goranson, an orthopedic surgeon, for worsening pain in my…read moreleft shoulder. He recommended a course of steroid injections. I received three injections over several months, but unfortunately, I did not experience any relief. After one of the injections, I noticed a visible indentation and some skin discoloration at the injection site. When I mentioned this at my next appointment, Dr. Goranson told me that this can sometimes happen if the medication enters the muscle and causes atrophy, and that it usually improves over time. He then suggested another injection, but I chose not to proceed. Since my symptoms continued, I sought a second opinion. The next doctor confirmed that the issue was related to the injection and diagnosed it as fat necrosis, which she explained is not reversible. As a result, before even attempting surgery, Dr. Goranson caused me significant and permanent physical and emotional harm.

Science driven. Explains everything! Kind to boot. Uber professional. And surgically talented. Think I respect him as a Dr.? You bet.

Dr. Vid gets you back to doing what you love - but you've got to do the work too…read more After a significant fall that left me with limited mobility and daily pain, I knew I needed more than just quick fixes. I wanted a provider who would help me understand the biomechanical root cause of my issues, not just treat symptoms. Dr. Vid Jindal absolutely delivered on that front. What sets Dr. Vid apart is his multi-modal, evidence-based approach. During my initial visit, he performed comprehensive movement assessments that revealed patterns I never knew existed. As someone who works in tech, I appreciated how he explained exactly what each test indicated and how different movement dysfunctions were contributing to my pain. His extensive certifications beyond his DC degree (ART, Graston Technique, SFMA assessments, and more) were immediately apparent in how thoroughly he evaluated my condition. Here's what you need to know going in: Dr. Vid will be completely upfront that lasting results require your active participation. This isn't a "come in twice a week forever" situation - it's a corrective/functional care program where the real work happens between visits. I'll be honest, initially I wasn't thrilled about adding exercises to my daily routine. But Dr. Vid serves as both coach and advocate, helping you understand exactly why each movement matters for your long-term health. The results speak for themselves. Even with me admittedly not completing my "homework" 100% of the time at first, I noticed significant improvements in my upper body mobility and reduced extremity pain within just a few sessions. As I became more consistent with the at-home exercises, our progress accelerated dramatically. What impressed me most is Dr. Vid's commitment to education. Every session includes both hands-on treatment for soft tissue dysfunctions and spine/extremity adjustments, plus time spent helping you understand how to prevent re-injury and maintain your progress independently. Unlike providers who just want to cycle you through, he's genuinely invested in getting you to that "state of ready" where you can live actively and pain-free. If you're someone who wants to take an active role in your recovery and values understanding the "why" behind your treatment, you'll thrive here. Even if that's not your natural inclination, Dr. Vid's realistic approach to setting expectations and his genuine passion for patient education make the investment worthwhile. Bottom line: a few months of focused work with Dr. Vid has given me tools and knowledge about my body that I'll use for life. Highly recommend if you're ready to put in the effort for lasting results.

The greatest passion of my life is Argentine tango, and it's safe to say that without Dr. Vid, I…read morewould not be dancing anymore. Thanks to him, I went from debilitating foot pain to dancing freely for hours in four-inch heels. To me, it's nothing short of miraculous. I came to Dr. Vid after running out of options. After a decade of dancing, I developed foot pain that no podiatrist, shoe, cream, or orthotic could fix. When I first contacted him, my expectations were admittedly low. The pain had been intense, and here I was, entrusting myself to someone who was neither a dancer nor a specialist in life on very high heels. How much I underestimated him! From the very first session, I realized I was in expert hands -- with someone who wouldn't just look at my foot, but assess my entire body, identifying root causes I'd never considered. What followed were focused, hands-on sessions to address the problem areas, followed by active physical therapy. He taught me exactly where and how to build strength to protect my body from future injury. I began to understand that if I want to stay pain-free -- especially under high-stress demands -- I need to take an active role in caring for and strengthening my body. And Dr. Vid showed me precisely how to do that. Dr. Vid won't give you a magic pill, an invasive surgery, or an overnight fix -- because he knows those only mask the issue and can even make it worse over time. He won't have you come in for quick sessions only to keep returning with the same problem. What he will do is zoom in on your body, identify the root cause, treat you holistically, and equip you with an arsenal of tools that will leave you feeling stronger and healthier than you have in years. His expertise is astonishing, his knowledge vast, his encouragement unwavering, and his positivity contagious. Finding Dr. Vid changed everything. What he gave me wasn't just relief - it was the strength and knowledge to keep doing what I love for years to come.

I am 80 years old, and this past summer, while walking down the stairs, I heard a sudden "pop" in my lower right leg near my heel. It was immediately clear that something had torn. My orthopedist placed me in a walking boot and, once it was removed, prescribed physical therapy. Having previously received treatment at Breakthrough on three occasions, I returned with complete confidence in their care. My physical therapist, Elizabeth Segovia, had also worked with me following a full knee replacement. At that time, I experienced significant difficulty walking longer distances, and my altered gait was beginning to compromise my hip. Her prior treatment was highly successful, and I was pleased to work with her again. Following a thorough evaluation of my recent injury, Elizabeth developed a structured rehabilitation plan beginning with four targeted stretching exercises. She provided both printed instructions and online resources to ensure I could perform the exercises correctly at home. During each session, she carefully observed my technique, offered constructive feedback, and demonstrated proper form. We met twice weekly, and she consistently evaluated my progress, thoughtfully adding new exercises as my strength and balance improved. Over time, my program expanded to include eighteen different exercises addressing strength, flexibility, balance, and overall stability. Elizabeth is exceptionally knowledgeable. She clearly explained which muscles each exercise targeted and the specific goals of every phase of treatment. Her explanations gave me confidence in the process and a deeper understanding of my recovery. In addition to her expertise, she is personable, patient, and encouraging--qualities that made each session both productive and reassuring. The Breakthrough facility itself is bright, clean, and well organized, offering a large gym area as well as private treatment rooms. Each therapy session lasts forty minutes--longer than sessions at some other facilities--and includes an additional ten minutes of icing and/or electrical stimulation, providing a comprehensive fifty-minute appointment. As a result of Elizabeth's expertise and dedication, I have regained strength, balance, and mobility. I am now able to walk long distances, play pickleball, snow ski, and cycle. I am truly grateful for the outstanding care I received and would highly recommend Elizabeth Segovia and Breakthrough Physical Therapy to anyone in need of rehabilitation services.

In my husband's case, the revision surgery was for the worst possible reason, which is infection. Revision surgery is challenging for the surgeon and the patient, but Dr. Mittal took the case when we were referred to him and has been caring and careful every step of the way. Dr. Mittal is knowledgeable regarding recent research and protocols, but also humble enough to consult and collaborate with other specialists, when needed. The physician assistants and office staff in Dr. Mittal's office have been responsive and helpful. We have felt in good hands with everyone we have encountered in our office visits as well as the post-surgical hospital stay. Dr. Mittal works long hours and his dedication to his patients shows. Sometimes his commitment to listening, answering questions, and hands-on care means that Dr. Mittal is running late for appointments, but we never feel rushed when it is our turn. He is worth the wait. Someone once told me that surgeons like their patients unconscious, meaning they lack interpersonal skills. Dr. Mittal was skilled when my husband was unconscious during surgery, but he has also been reassuring, calm, and clear during office visits. An easy five-star recommendation.
