Kind Words From Our Clients

  • "I highly recommend Sam for physical therapy! When I initially reached out to Sam about my back pain he responded quickly and immediately set up an appointment. Sam worked with me until my back pain was resolved which I am extremely greatly for. He is professional, personable and very knowledgeable. If you are looking for a physical therapist look no further!"

    Christina S

  • "I cannot say enough good things about Sam. He helped me tremendously with back and hip pain. I have used different physical therapists in the past and did not have the same outcome nor the tools he has given me to continue using at home to keep any new pain away. I would recommend him for anyone in a heartbeat!"

    Julie C

  • "I recently took my 15 year old daughter to Sam for hip and knee pain. She can have some anxiety meeting new people but Sam made her feel comfortable and found exercises that worked for her. He’s great and really cares about his patients. Highly recommend."
