My experience with Dr. Eric Stuffmann was stellar. He ran down my case verbally with me instantly…read moreand I was immediately pleased. I expected to get the blank look. He went over my x-rays and MRI with me and gave me an unhurried and thorough exam. He dictated notes into a Alexa-like device and then answered my 58 questions in great detail often referring back to the x-ray or MRI. I was there for a second opinion and didn't feel he was looking for "more work" from me nor did I feel he was agreeing with the first opinion out of rote. He was the pinnacle of professionalism and obviously extremely skilled. If you read his bio for his education and training, it's impressive and tailor made for my specific injury. All in all, this was the most positive experience I've had with a physician in decades. I reserve the right to come back and edit this review if I get charged for anything that I'm not expecting but short of that, I can't recommend Dr. Stuffmann highly enough. If there was an option for more than 5 stars, I'd easily do that.

Coming to PT here was a really great decision. I am a few days away from running my first marathon…read moreand I really wouldn't be here without Dr. Elise. A few months ago I decided to try and train for a trail marathon even though I wasn't running very much at the time. I am one of those people who always seems to get injured and so I really expected to wash out of training from some lingering issue, probably a plantar fasciitis flare up or something new. Sure enough a couple months into training I felt a twinge of the old pain in my feet but instead of quitting I decided to come in for a consult - and Dr. Elise was incredible. She helped me get on top of it, stay on top of it, and keep running. Anytime something new popped up (and a lot did!) we battled it right back down and I was able to complete a pretty grueling training block. I have learned so much about how to better support my body in athletic pursuits, and it's knowledge and insight that I'll be able to return to for the rest of my life. I feel confident and prepared not only for my race, but for a lifetime of running. Thanks Dr. Elise!

As an active adult who has undergone extensive physical therapy over the years, I was seeking a…read moreholistic approach that not only addressed my various injuries but also enhanced my strength and mobility. My previous experience with physical therapy was isolated treatments of specific body parts or muscle groups, with programs that did not produce lasting results. I was weary of another regimen of 8-10 weeks of resistance band exercises, which I could easily perform at home with no direction. About 6 months ago, Pro+Kinetix caught my attention on social media, and I decided to explore their programs. Their offerings aligned with my goals, and the combination of physical therapy and strength training piqued my interest. Working with Matteo, I've acquired the knowledge and skills to safely train with weights. We've developed a few comprehensive whole-body routines and iteratively refined exercises when necessary to accommodate lingering injuries and facilitate progress. I've greatly appreciated the flexibility to customize and refine my fitness objectives over time, while also creating personalized routines tailored to my body. Highly recommend!

He then customizes exercises to help with the healing process. He pushes me just hard enough to get beneficial results without adding to the existing pain. I am miraculously ready for my half marathon thanks to Chris! I made it a point to ask for Chris after my ankle was healed but then knee started acting up. Chris is and will be my go to Physical Therapist. I am also very used to checking in with an iPad sort of situation so I am not at the very least bothered by checking in with a friendly person on a computer screen. Receptionist lady is always busy making calls to help schedule patients so I completely understand the need. She also gladly checked me in one time when the computer screen was not working. At the main clinic, I had no issue getting appointments for MRI and with Dr Talarico and Dr Sagoo, all within 48 hours. My GP Dr Lawrence told me to throw his name around. I think he's joking, isn't he?

Overall extremely disappointing experience at Golden State Orthopedics Physical Therapy. From start…read moreto finish, the administrative side of this clinic was disorganized, inefficient, and frustrating. The front desk staff member, Shellie, was consistently rude and unprofessional in her communication. Simple questions were met with attitude, and there was little effort to be helpful or respectful. For a medical office, that lack of professionalism is unacceptable. On top of that, coordination between providers, referrals, and insurance was handled poorly, leaving me stuck in the middle repeatedly and causing unnecessary stress and delays in care. Rather than taking ownership of the issues, responsibility was pushed back onto me as the patient. I expected a much higher standard of care and communication. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this clinic to anyone looking for organized, patient focused care.

Because I had switched to a new…read morenon-Kaiser health insurance plan, I found that an extraordinary physical therapist I'd received excellent care from in the past was working at Emeryville Sports Therapy. I booked an appointment with Oliver Mok, a truly gifted physical therapist with a doctorate in PT. Oliver rescued me from a life of disability after 2 car accidents in 2003 that left me with an SI joint dysfunction and a piriformis muscle strain. I couldn't stand or sit for very long and was in agony most of the time. Without medication, I was able to recover to near full capacity because of Oliver's expertise and precision with treatment plans. He was equally thoughtful and gentle with my frozen shoulder so I was able to recover much more quickly than others with the same condition. Overall the Emeryville Sports Therapy staff was friendly and welcoming to me and my service dog. They were efficient and timely with appointments as well. I definitely recommend checking out Emeryvile Sports Therapy if you need PT.

They both gave me strengthening exercises to do at home. The third therapist I saw several times. She pushed her thumb or fingers very hard into my Quads and hamstrings. I complained about how really painful it was. She kept telling me the only way to get those muscles to relax was to apply strong pressure. My appointments were scheduled with her on a weekly basis for about six weeks. I went to the next two but I was beginning to recognize that I did not agree with her treatment. I continued to complain about how much it hurt but she barely reduced the pressure and kept telling me it was necessary. I decided to look up some reliable information which actually agreed with me that muscles react to pain with increased guarding and tension. I also remembered that my Qi Gong teacher often reminded us to go easy - that Qi flows toward relaxation not toward maximum effort. I canceled the rest of my appointments. This PT business does have good therapists and was well recommended to me. It is quite busy however and the first therapist I saw did not have any available other appointments until after my knee surgery was scheduled when I would no longer be able to drive and would be getting in home PT.
