I've seen Dr. Salah for a workout injury, and my teenage son has seen him as a student-athlete…read more Some time ago, I injured my shoulder during a workout. It was the worst pain I'd ever felt. Every day activities, including sleeping, were a bit traumatic. I saw three doctors before I saw Dr. Salah, and not one of them was able to diagnose or treat my pain adequately. I later realized that none of them spent the time to understand the issue. Dr. Salah took the time (which is not encouraged nowadays) to analyze my actual issue and provide a course of action that included medication and physical therapy. He absolutely changed my quality of life, and I'm incredibly fortunate to have come in contact with him. Fast-forward: My teenage son is now a basketball/track athlete. Growing bodies and the like are rife for injuries in high school sports. The first person I thought of when my son was injured was Dr. Salah, and this was the absolute best decision. He took the time to get to the bottom of our concerns and created an action plan for recovery. I now have zero worries about my son's ability to stay healthy because he has an advocate in Dr. Salah.

After years of poor experiences with other doctors, Dr. Salah truly changed my perception of patient care. He took the time to thoroughly examine my hand and explain the mechanical issues in a way I could understand. What stood out was his combination of expertise and genuine empathy. He was straightforward about the diagnosis, clear about treatment options, and took time to answer all my questions about potential outcomes. He understood my concerns about surgery and helped me weigh the pros and cons without pushing me in any particular direction. Thank you, Dr. Salah.

I came to this place after months of patella tendonitis (my knee). I understood my injury well and communicated that. During my appointment, the guy evaluated me and focused less on what I had to say, and more on his incorrect assessment of my mobility. He mistakenly misdiagnosed poor hip mobility (my hip mobility is fine, I made him re-check it and he agreed on the misdiagnosis). I told him I had limited ankle mobility which caused overcompensation in my knee during squat patterns. As a champion bodybuilder, I really do know my body inside and out. It shouldn't have taken him thirty minutes to discover what what sentence communicates. ‼Beyond that, when he administered exercises, due to his lack of listening of knowledge of the injury, the excercise he had me perform flared my injury up for the following 2 weeks, requiring me to take NSAIDs daily. When I graciously thanked him for showing me how to hurt myself, my thank you wasn't followed with any "your welcome" but just a blank stare . I said thank you again to make sure it wasn't the twilight zone, but it was in fact, a real life horror. ‼ After we concluded our failure of a session, making no personal connection and learning nothing, I paid $100 or so dollars. The young lady at the front asked me if I wanted to schedule ahead. She explained the sessions would be similar to today, ‼except the full hour I pay for would only be 30 minutes to guidance, followed by self-led excercise‼ Isn't that what I go to the gym for anyways? ... Anyways, she asked to schedule ahead and I obviously declined. I did not want to return. Then, I receive a text message that my appointments are set at the same time the next week. And if I don't cancel within 24 hours of the appointment I'd be charged. So I keep the appointment for a few days, hoping my symptoms improve, hoping that it was momentary pain for long term recovery. But no. Of course not. I call the office to cancel the appointments (the ones I asked them not to schedule in the first place) and here's how that went Lady: ..... Me: (waiting for her to say hello, this is so and so office) Lady: ..... Me: ...hello? Lady: how can I help you Me: hi my name is ______ and I'd like to cancel my appointments. Lady: you have 2 appointments scheduled, which would you like to cancel? Me: both of them please Lady: *hangs up on my angerly* Of course, no "thank you for visiting our office" no "I hope you schedule with us soon" not even a "goodbye" or "have a nice day" This place is nice if your insurance pays for it and if you have genuinely no issues in your body. If you are someone with a real injury, if you are someone who wants to be treated with the same respect you give, with dignity, if you are an athlete, and if you are serious about healing, save your money and your time and stop reading reviews. Go somewhere else. Genuinely wish someone had told me this, which is why I'm writing this. My other reviews are positive. It upsets me to have to do this.

I would highly recommend…read more I came to physical therapy following extensive back surgery involving disc and vertebrae replacement, along with stabilization from L2 to S1. 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.

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.
