My son is nearly 2 weeks acl post op, he is also autistic, 2nd day of therapy
he did not want to bare weight on his leg, somehow Mason encouraged him
too and tried a different walker and before I knew it my son was walking
and he was encouraged and happy! I feel like it’s too early to leave
an honest review as he has several weeks of therapy left but after what
I saw today, I’m giving Mason an A++++. Everyone has been wonderful

realized that I do not walk all the way on my heel. I really like Tate

Today was the second time Amiee has been my Therapist. Each time she pushes
me to the max. She is extremely professional and courteous and seems to
know her job quite well. I recommend her as a Physical Therapist.

Very invested in her patients. We discussed our game plan, and I could
really feel she cared about my success. Can’t wait to knock out
this PT w her and get back to doing the things I love to do!🙌

Dr. Kuwitzky has a strong understanding of the way the body works and why
it hurts. She listens and then assesses to verify the challenge(s). She
is also very compassionate and explains the "why" if asked.
I've had a lot of physical therapy over the years and she is the best.

I have been going to Ortho Central Physical Therapy for 6+ wks after my
full knee replacement & i HIGHLY recommend OCPT. All are good therapist
but, i saw Daphne the most (she is Great), then i saw Amy & Corrine
a few times (they were good, too). Check this OCPT OUT, you won't be disappointed!! ...Jamey

This place is amazing!! David Haynes is so knowledgeable. I would definitely
recommend them. I was sad my time there was over. They helped me with
my pain and showed me how to work at home to strengthen my spine.

Jessica was awesome! She listened to my goals and helped me create an exercise
plan to achieve them! She helped break down each ankle movement so I could
be sure to get them right for when I do them at home.

Amiee was great. She made sure that I was getting the most out of exercises
(correct technique, to always using good form, and stretching the muscles
in a safe manner). She also took time to show me at home stretching exercises
that I can do. Greatly appreciate this. She showed great care and knowledge
for clients getting back to their normal lives. Thank you.

Shandra is very good at what she does. I already told her I wanted to hire
her to massage my wrist every day. I know I wouldn’t be able to
afford her.

Corrine was very good at the initial appointment. She has been very kind
and considerate during each session. I seemed to progress a little faster
than normal so I had to convince her to progress me a little quicker.
She is very cautious, which is probably good for most patients.

Everyone in my family has been to Jimmy, and we won’t go anywhere
else. Today was my very first visit. When I first arrived, I felt a little
out of place. I didn’t have a big orthopedic surgery, so I thought
maybe I was just wasting his time. When I went back, he listened to me,
and made me feel like I mattered, (no matter how big or small my surgery
was). He has a ton of experience, since he has been a physical therapist
for a long time. He definitely walks the walk. I highly recommend Ortho
Central! It is nice and clean, has a very comfortable waiting area. The
lady at the front desk (Susie) is super friendly and accommodating. My
husband is also in PT, and she was able to accommodate both of us at the
same time.

Jimmy uses an extensive library of strengthening exercises specifically
designed for the problem at hand! I’m always impressed at the diversity
and knowledge he has regrading my specific needs. He is always adding
new techniques to strengthen and heal targeted muscle groups and relieve
pain. He truly is top notch and I trust him every time to help me deal
with whatever ails this aging body!!

I had my shoulder done a little over a year ago. I’m moving my arm
in every direction. A friend didn’t get the PT like I did at Ortho,
she went somewhere else, she can still not move her arm even 50% like
I can. Her PT experience wasn’t nearly as detailed as mine was.
Highly recommend Ortho.

My impression is that she is very knowledgeable and the true expert in
her field. She also seems to love her job very much and genuinely does
her best to help patients go through rehab with the best possible results.
I am recovering from ACL reconstruction surgery and my experience with
physical therapy led by Shandra has been truly positive so far.

Daphne helped me so much with my knee! She did the stretching and bending
in a new way to me which was very helpful; and the massage she did felt
wonderfully and made the PT more pleasant and not as painful. I hope she
is available to work with me often!

I cannot speak highly enough of Shandra and the rehab services that she
and the entire staff at Ortho Central Physical Therapy provide. For the
second time around, I have been going to PT here and she has truly worked
miracles. The one-on-one is unique to each person and their recovery.
Shandra genuinely cares about each patient and takes the time to educate
you about your body and healing progress and limitations. The laughs provided
during exercise are a welcome distraction to mind and body. I’ve
met people of all ages here during recovery and we are all treated like
one big family. Nothing but an A+ and a wonderful experience!
