PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

“This is the 4th time here for therapy, 2x with Michelle, 1x with Alicia, and 1x with Lisa. Michelle is an OUTSTANDING PT who my wife has used as well. Though I no longer live in Norwood, I choose to come back here for Michelle, despite a PT office 1/4 of mile from my home in Millis. Your ENTIRE STAFF is excellent and extremely friendly. Michelle is simply OUTSTANDING!!”
Ned Sennott

“Just a line to let you know what a wonderful experience I’ve had on the two occasions I was sent to you by my physician. All of his high praise of your ability was reaffirmed, but what I appreciated just as much was the friendliness, care and warmth conveyed to me by the terrific staff that you have assembled, an exceptionally gifted group whose personalities are as therapeutic as their techniques.”

“When a patient is made to feel like a friend, he knows he’s in good hands, and that’s exactly how I felt each time I visited your facilities. I left not only feeling better, but having actually enjoyed the time I spent there.”

That doesn’t seem to happen much these days with health care becoming so impersonal and compartmentalized. As tuned in as you are to all of the advances in your profession, you’re also a throwback to a time when patients look comfort in the relationship they have with those to whom they entrusted their well-being.”

“I than you for that, and I wish you every success as you continue to build your practice.”
Joe Fitzgerald, Columnist

“Throughout my experience with this rehabilitation program, I’ve been impressed. My treatment was created based on my own specific needs and goals. I received individual attention focused specifically on my injury, my questions were answered, and I received encouragement as I recovered. I found my injury to progress tremendously in only a short time. Thanks to this treatment, I’ve been able to return to my sport more quickly and confidently than I could have ever imagined!”
Kristy Fuller

“I have been a patient at Physical Therapy & Sports Rehab in Norwood for awhile. My therapist has been very effective, accommodating, flexible and professional at all times. I had elbow surgery and after a poor experience at another physical therapy office (not one of your other offices).”

“I had back pain for about 25 years and after seeing your therapist, I have not had back pain for a year now. Your therapist taught me the exercises to help my back. I have been recommending your physical therapy office to others all the time.”
Alan Perlin

“I have been going to Physical Therapy & Sports Rehab for years for various problems and I have always found them to be very helpful. Not only did I find them to be friendly and knowledgeable on my problems, but I was also given exercises to do at home that helped correct each problem. This is the only group I would use for future problems.”
Sharon

“I have had a wonderful experience at Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab. My therapist, Jeff Goldman has improved my life with the care he has given me. The therapy has improved my ability to walk without a walker. He puts his whole heart & soul into his work. I am luck to have him.”
Dixie Donovan

“I would like to thank you very much for your attention and help in my therapy. Ever since I had surgery on my knee, I felt that I would never be able to run, play soccer, or do any of my daily activities. I was cautious of playing soccer, but since you have helped me, I feel better than ever. Now I will be able to play soccer, run, referee, and do all my other activities. You helped so much and I wish I could do something more than just say thank you. I will make sure I stop by to say hi and visit you. Thank you very much. I will never forget the wonderful staff at the Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab. I will miss you all very much.”
Lindsey Smith

“Michelle is a fantastic therapist. She helped me a great deal. She gave me confidence in myself and helped me through difficult times.”
Patricia Yancluk

“I am so pleased with the results of my physical therapy treatments for a shoulder rotator cuff impingement. I had the problem for several months before I finally went to a doctor and was referred for physical therapy. The results are like night and day. I have full range of motion again and total use of my shoulder. On top of that, the strengthening exercises I learned for my shoulder also strengthened my elbow (which had been suffering from tendonitis). I thought I was going to need surgery on by elbow, but not now! Jeff Goldman has worked wonders for me. Both my right shoulder and right elbow problems have been resolved.” Arlene Bachant“I came for treatment at Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab. for three injuries: Left Ankle, Right Hamstring, and Left Hamstring. I can honestly say that therapy has been 100% beneficial to me. The therapists here are very smart and gave me great advice to help my injuries heal fast. I really enjoyed coming here and never dreaded going to therapy, like many other friends I know. I have nothing but great things to say about these people. I received great treatment and fell awesome. Thank you for everything”
Joe Bickerstaffe

“I was referred to Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab. after two year of being treated for an automobile accident. Medications provided some relief but the pain always returned. I was very reluctant to try physically therapy. To my surprise and delight, this has been the best treatment ever. The range of motion in my neck has improved considerably and m my back pain is non-existent. My therapist was most helpful and supportive in my efforts to regain flexibility and mobility. The staff is very knowledgeable in their profession. They possess a great deal of professionalism in dealing with patients. This has been the most enlightening experience for me!” Edward Rocket“I was very happy with my physical therapy. I had my shoulder feel so much better. Jeff Goldman was very good in what he does and everyone is so nice.”
Barbra Schippier

“Michelle made our PT sessions feel more like being at a spa! Her neck massage is the best one I ever had. Take good care of those hands Michelle - - they’re a gift to your clients”
Debbie Zolla

“After my doctor told me I had Patella Femoral Syndrome, I came to Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab. I wasn’t exactly thrilled but I know I need to get my knee better for soccer and basketball. The led me through each exercise and made it clear as to what I had to do. What made it so good was that my therapist incorporated the exercises and drills into my daily lifestyle according to my activities. He help will allow me to participate in my activities, hopefully almost at 100%”
Christina Aldrich

“After starting physical therapy with Jeff, I began to feel the improvement in my back. I could see how much better my back was each week after doing my exercises and having Jeff work on stretching out my lower back muscles. The pain was about an 8 when I started, and now I’m pain free.”
