Reviews

What Our Clients Say

Got me back to playing golf again. Outstanding staff

I was seen by the physical therapist in a timely manner but he had a student with him that he wanted to run my evaluation which I declined. I told him my parameters about students and my thoughts and he totally understood the situation and the student was excused from my evaluation. I thought the valuation was right on and understanding the situation and how to go forward.
