Based on my experience here, I personally would not recommend this therapist to anyone who would like to be involved with their treatment plan. Over all, the owner/PT was pleasantly nice, but very set in his ways.
As a military wife having moved around a lot, I have undergone multiple therapy sessions due to a neck injury from a car accident several years ago. I chose this place for convienence, but also because the office staff are very friendly, polite, & professional.
During the assessment process, the PT asked several questions & wanted to know what approaches or techniques have other therapists used. We discussed a treatment plan. He shared with me what he would like to do & goals he'd like to achieve by using a frequency machine that I was not familiar with. I've had ultra sounds & electrical stimulation on my neck, but he indicated this was not the same. He did explain in thorough detail on how the machine works & that the frequencies would stimulate deep muscle tissue.
I kindly told him that I would not want to begin treatment with this machine until after I did further research, at which point the owner said to me, "I'm sorry I just can't work with you if you do not trust my judgement. I have been doing this for over 30 years, and I can tell, you know way too much and that's getting in the way of you seeing results. You need to go back down the road & find another therapist to work with."
I apologized by saying, "I'm very sorry if I offended you, but I would like to research this machine first & read reviews." I also work in healthcare and yes sometimes that does get in the way- but, not in this case. I know my body and I know what works for me and what doesn't. I also want to be absolutely sure that this will not have negative or long-term effects.
My motive certainly was not to undermine this man's intelligence, as he appears to be very informative, I only wanted to learn more about the frequency machine beforehand. I think most people in my shoes would want to do the same.
This therapist was obviously not a good fit for me, but that doesn't mean he may not be a good fit for someone else. That said, I do wish everyone at Procare PT all the very best! I'm sorry it didn't work out. read more
