I've never written a review before. I consult Yelp regularly before making choices to see what others have to say (thank you, Yelpers!), but I've never contributed my own opinion-until now. I felt so strongly about my success and 5 star recovery experience (total knee replacement) with ProFormance Therapy, that I had to speak up. 1) Time -ProFormance respects your time. ProFormance never changed or cancelled my appointment, and I was never kept waiting or made to feel rushed. The therapy is very personalized and my therapist was focused on me completely throughout each session. I didn't have to share my time with other patients. 2) Variety-My therapist (Steven) kept things fresh. It wasn't the same old routine each visit. Steven incorporated a variety of different challenges into my sessions. He was also very attentive to feedback about how I was feeling (strong and energetic, or tired and sore) and created a mix of exercises to accommodate my current energy and pain level each time. 3) Attitude and Atmosphere-The facility was always clean and organized, and the staff outstanding in their professionalism and attitude. Steven, Justin and Nick are genuine in their positive attitudes, good spirited joking and encouragement. No matter how hard I worked during a session, I always left smiling and feeling good about the experience. Thank you Steven, for helping me exceed my recovery expectations! read more

I live 5 minutes form one hospital based physical therapy department and 10 minutes from another hospital base physical therapy department. I received therapy at both over the past 3 years. None compared to the one on one professionalism I experienced at Proformance. There is no sharing of time with other patients which often occurs at the hospital based PT departments. For example, when it was time for post-therapy heat or ice, this was done after the full hour of therapy time was completed, not during the therapy time. I received pre-op and post op therapy after lower back fusion surgery. The drive is 20+ minutes away from my home and worth every mile of traffic! They are terrific. Do not go anywhere else. You will be wasting your time and money if you do. I worked with Steve Liska and he developed a personalized plan based upon my needs for recovery and long term maintenance. I count my good surgical outcome in part due to the excellent pre and post surgical care I received at Proformance. read more

I had the good luck of meeting Justin Silver at one of my many visits to my Orthopedics office. Right from the start, I knew Justin was different for he was able to offer advice and suggestions without undermining the authority of the physician standing in the same room. As a healthcare provider myself I have set the bar high for the quality of care a patient needs and should receive by their provider. Justin and his team at Proformance Therapy stand above the crowd. Professional, compassionate, continuity of care, individual attention and best of all a sense of humor as you work through your routine. I have had multiple obstacles to overcome in the past years and I now consider Justin and his team part of my family. Each member coming together to combine their level of expertise to make me whole and live stong. Highly recommend this physical therapy team. Can't say enough good about this facility and the crew that runs it! P. Varco-White read more

I know why the name is Proformance, they are Pros at what they do! The entire staff is so very knowledgable and really understand what is involved in your recovery. I'm 57 and just had a total left knee replacement with some previous surgery scar tissue factors to add to the mix and Justin and staff knew exactly what they were doing and how to best get me back to mobility so I can resume what it is I love to do, golf in the summer and paddle in the winter. This is a mid term review, so far after 10 visits I can say without reservation that they all know what they are doing. My fellow patients are there for sugical recoveries, accidents, strokes, you name it, and I can see their progress, as well as mine, when I'm there 3 days a week. And I have to say I have never used finer quality equipment as part of rehab before. FIrst rate facility in every regard. Check Proformance out before you make a final decision, you'll be glad you did. read more

ProFormance Physical Therapy ProFormance Physical Therapy has brought back my life! I own horses and make a living as an artist. After surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff and other shoulder damage, I worried about the ability to horseback ride again or paint murals, etcetera. My decision to select ProFormance in Skokie for physical therapy has paid off tremendously. Steven, my therapist is phenomenal. His expertise, individualized attention and openness to try various treatments has helped me gain mobility and strength following surgery that I didn't think was possible. The vibe in this place is something special - it's spotless, designed beautifully and offers views of the park across the street. Convenient parking and great location was a key attraction for me. The professionalism of the entire staff and authentic caring of ProFormance's Director of Sports Medicine, Justin makes this place a gem. read more

I had a total hip replacement in April. During my recovery I learned about ProFormance Physical Therapy from a physical therapist who visited my home for one month. When it was time for outpatient therapy there were many choices but I chose ProFormance based on the recommendation of my home health therapist. I had been in outpatient therapy several other times and had not always had great experiences so I wanted to make sure I was choosing a great place. I have been very successful in rehab because of the team of experts who are there -- excellent practitioners, knowledgeable, encouraging, fun to be around, who helped me get stronger, more confident, and more motivated to continue my rehab even after the first six weeks! I am grateful to them for the atmosphere they create that makes going there a pleasure and for the great results I have achieved! Many thanks to all of you, especially Steven. read more

Justin, Nick and Steve are miracle workers! After wasting 6 weeks at IBJI and making nearly no progress, Justin began by customising a treatment plan based on my main issues and each week checks in on progress to make adjustments. Their sincere interest in getting me back to 100% is evident with a continued desire to adjust needed therapies to target the problem, and recommending stretches, exercises, doctor consults, and more-- whatever is necessary to make progress. The facility is like visiting with your family and friends. They are fun, humorous and make you feel at home. Their system is not formulaic and never feels like you are being passed off to an assistant just watching you do exercises. Every minute is spent on making and assessing progress. How often can you say you look forward to going to physical therapy because you come out feeling better each time?! read more

This is my first ever review on yelp. After my experience with Justin,I felt compelled to write a review. At 76 years old and two new knees I'm not a stranger to rehabilitation therapy. This year I was experiencing pain /problems with both hips. Began therapy at a well known facility. Not impressed with my progress,I began my research. Thankfully I found Proformance Therapy. From the minute I stepped in the the door I was impressed with its serene/holistic environment. Furthermore,you have Justin's full attention and expertise from the beginning to the end of your therapy. I am now walking pain-free! I know the larger rehabilitation facilities will probably get you to your goals, but the personal /motivational care you receive from the team at Proformance Therapy is beyond comparison. They will be my go to therapists for any future needs. read more

I went to ProFormance for rehab after getting surgery on my torn ACL and meniscus, and I could not have made a better choice. I worked with Steven and Josh, who complimented each other very well in the way they approached the rehab, and made me feel as if they truly cared every step of the way. Throughout my rehab process, they helped me achieve goals that were set forth from Day 1. I felt very fortunate to have worked with both of them because they motivated me by pushing the right buttons. PT was fun, not a chore. Overall, Justin and his entire team do an exceptional job of making you feel at home and improving peoples lives. I highly recommend this place! Btw, everything was very clean! read more

Having been through PT many times in the past, I thought I knew what to expect...but Justin, Nick, and Steven are in a league of their own. Justin not only alleviated most of my pain, for the first time since I was injured 12 years ago I'm encouraged I don't have to "live with the pain" as I've been told over and over. PT was sometimes uncomfortable, to say the least, but Justin had me laughing so much I didn't notice! For me, it doesn't get any better than that. His instincts for what makes each patient comfortable are right on. I highly recommend ProFormance Therapy and I'm so grateful I found them! read more

Justin, Nick and Steven are simply the best in the business. They are excellent therapists and genuinely kind, caring human beings, always ready to encourage you when you're ready to give up, and just people who LOVE what they do. And what do they do? They help you get better and back to living your life--without pain-- and, sometimes in a better way than you were living it before--by teaching you to take it a step at a time! I am thrilled that they are working with Dr. Thomas Godbout, my chiropracter,and that they found their way into my life. I am eternally grateful to them. read more

These guys are great. My knee pain was treated by both Justin and Mary Beth, and has been dramatically improving. I have had knee pain for years, and have had clicking in my knee for 20 years. Justin honed in on the problem, and after a few months my pain is nearly gone. I no longer have "clicking" at all. This center is sports oriented, and has helped get me back to running without pain. Mary Beth's style of motivating and pushing, while being entertaining, really brings results. I have been to other PT's before, and Justin and Mary Beth are the best. read more

I did physical therapy at ProFormance for a shoulder problem and wanted to commend the staff there for their excellence. From making appointments to dealing with insurance to the therapy itself, the staff was outstanding in handling it all, addressing my concerns, and making sure everything went smoothly. I worked with Steven and Josh directly who were both outstanding, and the rest of the staff was always quite friendly and helpful. They make you feel like family, I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of physical therapy. read more

I've had several body ailments and seen many therapists. No one compares to Justin, Nick and Stephen. They are knowledgeable, patient, careful, skilled, kind and exceptional at what they do. They truly care about helping you feel better and bringing your body to a place where you can enjoy all the things you enjoy doing. I don't know what I would do without their help. It's the best part of my day. I'm grateful to have found them. They are simply the best!!! Thank you for being so amazing and truly caring about helping me feel better! read more

For five weeks, I had Steven for a physical therapist. I was rehabbing my pickleball elbow, shoulder and knee. I was totally impressed with his knowledge of what exercises would be best for me. When I first started moving all those muscles and joints, it was painful. After five weeks of doing exercises at the facility and home, I am experiencing very little pain. Not only did Steven excel at his job, but he is also a great listener and a nice person. I would highly recommend ProFormance and Steven if you need a physical therapist. read more

Never had been to physical therapy before. Needed to rehab rotator cuff injury. This place was a great experience--better than the gym! Steven was my therapist. Friendly, knowledgeable, encouraging. PLUS...Steven, Nick and Justin great conversationalists. Like participating in one of those radio sports-talk shows, but with intelligent people. After just 6 weeks, my shoulder is just about back to normal and I've learned how to work out properly at home. These people are the best! I'd recommend to anyone. read more

I love these guys! Not only do they care about your and your recovery, they help you learn about how you got where you are in the first place. I went in initially for bad knees. They helped me understand how to not just help my knees, but strengthen my hips and core so that I would not feel that way again. I've been back for my hip (pregnancy) and my husband has gone for his back. We are so fortunate to have them in our neighborhood as qualified and caring medical professionals. read more

Proformance is THE BEST PLACE for PT!!! My daughter has needed their services many times (due to her knee issues) over the past number of years. In addition to successful rehab they are sensitive and supportive of her emotionally (not easy with a teen). She has worked with probably all of the PT staff and they are great. In addition, Justin was absolutely wonderful in working with my 81 year old father. Words cannot express my gratitude for the care he received at Proformance. read more

ProFormance is the place to go for all of your physical therapy needs. Justin, Josh and the rest of the team are very knowledgable and always offer the most up to date treatments and care inside of a beautiful, spacious and clean facility. I drive from Elmhurst to come here because I know I will receive the personal attention and care needed to get better. I have been to several other physical therapy clinics and this is by far the best! I won't go anywhere else! read more
