Success stories
Patient/Client Testimonials
Dan is the best! Not only does he make PT fun by throwing different exercises at me to keep me challenged, he prioritizes what is important to me, which is getting back to lifting with minimal pain. He is about getting you back to doing what you love safely, effectively, and quickly! At previous clinics, I would dread PT because I was doing the same boring exercises every visit, but with Dan I never walk in the door knowing what exercises he will give to me.
4 months after being discharged from another PT clinic, I was still experiencing pain and lack of mobility. Dan was able to immediately pinpoint significant weaknesses and instabilities even though another PT clinic thought I was good to go. Dan went out of his way to help me get treatment as soon as possible. After a successful trim Dan had me back rehabbing and training to be the strongest and most durable I can be. Highly recommend. He makes rehab fun and interesting.
After multiple injuries and many different PT’s, Dan is the man. He truly cares about each and every patient; one on one sessions, unique exercises, demonstrating the exercises himself, and incorporating his knowledge from his podcast episodes into his work. Dan’s enthusiasm and positivity has made physical therapy enjoyable, even when in pain. As a student athlete, PT with Dan keeps me as close to 100% as possible, confident, and back on the field.
Dan is awesome! He makes PT fun while getting me back to my activities with decreased pain. I had seen a few different physical therapists before him and Dan was the only one who was able to help reduce my pain.
Dan has been great in everything that he has done. The recovery aspect of the injury has been tough, but Dan has made it a whole lot easier. All of the questions I have asked he has had the answers for which has made me feel more relaxed about it all. He knows how to have fun and make you laugh, but he is amazing at what he does.
