Optimal Performance and Physical Therapies St. Petersburg

Fantastic experience: Dr. Angela is an extremely knowledgeable and caring therapist. She actively listens at all times to make sure that she can tailor the exercise program to your needs. Great with all levels of fitness, especially athletes!! There is also plenty of 1 on 1 time with the therapist.

Fantastic experience: Awesome group of physical therapists- especially Andrea! Great mix of learning new exercises/ stretches, as well as helpful knowledge of the source of pain. I feel like there's plenty of one on one time with the PT, which was not the case at the last place I tried. Have learned a lot over the past 2 months that I plan on implementing the coming years.

Fantastic experience: My Dad is 87 yrs old and he was given a script by Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville for specific rehab to get up when he falls. The care and knowledge has been excellent! He praises you all so much for making him to be stronger! 110% Thank you so much!

Negative experience: The therapist gave limited supervision, wasn't friendly, and never varied what activity, intensity, or reps I did in 20 sessions. It was a disappointing experience where I had little to no improvement and wasted time and money. My next physical therapy experience has been entirely different, and I have improved remarkably. If you are new to physical therapy and trying this practice because they partner with your insurance, please be mindful of my experience, If your experience is similar, try somewhere else. Our insurance companies don't care about us and partner with those who give them the best deal, not those who will provide us with the best care. This place is a perfect example of that.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Patrick Parker is fantastic. My son has been here for 6 months. The evaluation was extremely thorough. The therapy is tailored to my son's ACL injury and his sport, soccer. Dr. Parker is passionate and really cares. His soccer and sports rehab background make it a perfect fit. We were at a hospital outpatient PT facility for the first 5 months. They did an excellent job for the first phase of recovery. OPPT and Patrick were the perfect place start on sport specific PT. We are super excited to have found Dr. Parker. My son is very impressed and recovered great. He is playing soccer again!! Also the facility is perfect for my son's recovery: large open area to train, dumbbells, kettle bells, squat rack, leg press machine, treadmill, therapy tables.. I highly recommend OPPT and Dr. Parker.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience here! Lucas has worked with me to heal some hip pain that has been problematic for years. And when some new shoulder and neck pain popped up, he helped me work on that too. He’s thorough, patient, but also focused and driven on helping you get better! Big fan! Would come back here in a heartbeat if I need to again.

Fantastic experience: I did PT here with Brent Champagne and he is simply amazing at his job. I got over my knee injury and I am back to running better than ever! This office is small but everyone is so friendly. I can’t recommend this place enough to anyone trying to get back into it or even better their experience. Thanks Brent and OPPT!!

Fantastic experience: I suffered from Plantar fasciatis for a year and a half. I was referred to OPPT from my doctor and am so thankful I was. Patrick was nothing short of amazing. Thanks to him I am pain free! 10/10 recommend OPPT.

Fantastic experience: I honestly was very reluctant to have to go to PT, but Lucus actually made it worth going. Not only did I feel amazingly better after our sessions, he switched up the routine so it wasn't mundane. That's what really kept me motivated and wanting to come back to each appointment! The front desk staff is very polite and understanding as well! Thanks OPPT for getting me well.

Fantastic experience: from the time my neurologist sent me last April to today i have to say my back has improved. Andrea is superb. i am learning alot she is kind and patient. so so glad my doctor referred me there!

Fantastic experience: Started going here after I tore my ACL, I’ve been going for 5 months working with Patrick who’s been great. He is very knowledgeable and willing to adapt if something isn’t feeling right for you. Patrick, the front desk, and everyone that works there is very kind and welcoming.

Negative experience: Waste of time and money. Go somewhere else.

Negative experience: I've been to several therapists. The staff lacks experience, professionalism, and had difficulty handling my paperwork. The building is old and under construction. Not impressed. The PT I worked with was OK. Overall can't recommend.

Fantastic experience: I pulled my achilles running and was sent to PT to repair. A friend recommended Brent Champagne. I could not be happier with his approach, attention, knowledge or overall attitude. This is not a foo-foo place. This is a put in the work and you will heal place.

Fantastic experience: Elissa is outstanding!!

Fantastic experience: Very good .

Fantastic experience: Wow x10 My therapist, Alissa is AMAZING. She is very knowledgeable. She was focused on not only addressing the symptoms, but the underlying imbalances that were causing them. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Katherine is amazing. I had almost resigned myself to living with the discomfort of my shoulder impingement after 6 months of no improvement when I decided to try OPPT St Pete. She professionally evaluated me, did a better diagnosis and explanation than the orthopaedic surgeon I saw first (for 7 minutes), and set me up on an appropriate treatment plan. After just a few sessions I began seeing improvement, and by sticking to her recommended in-person visit schedule and at-home exercises, my problem was 95% improved within 3 months. I actually didn't want to stop going to my sessions because they were so good but she had the integrity to tell me I didn't need anymore. Clearly this PT group is not in it for the money. I had no problems with anything else, the front desk staff and other therapists that substituted when Katherine was out were all fine. The facility and equipment are both good. I referred my wife who is a surgeon to Katherine as well. Her arm problem was getting bad enough to limit her ability to do surgery and fortunately after just a few sessions with Katherine that problem was fully resolved! Thank you OPPT, I'll be back next time I need PT for anything else.

Negative experience: The office staff seemed to never get it right when it came to scheduling. I was told they have a third party sending the text messages with the incorrect appointment times. Very unprofessional to cancel all my future appointments due to a call in because of a brief medical condition. Too many patients per therapist. Not enough one on one with the patients.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. Emily is amazing. I started feeling better after the first session. The facility is very clean and professional. Everyone who works there is very friendly and welcoming. They make you feel at ease and help ease your pain. I especially appreciate that they follow COVID protocols.

Fantastic experience: Great location. The office staff are efficient, helpful, friendly and fun. Physical therapists know what they're doing! Emily Srnka helped me with pelvic floor therapy. I learned so much. Wish I had known years ago about this type of therapy. Elissa Deusner helps me with chronic pain issues related to arthritis and PMR. She has helped me increase my ability, stamina and strength. Truly both practitioners are godsends. They teach me how to improve my health and day to day quality of life with humor and grace and wisdom. They really know their stuff and I'm so grateful.

Fantastic experience: Katherine and Dan are two of the best physical therapist I have ever had the pleasure of working with. They truly care about their patients and it shows. Their knowledge is above and beyond your run of the mill therapist. Do yourself a favor and request them!

Fantastic experience: I truly cannot express how thankful I am for Dr. Dan and his staff. Before my car accident I was super active and for 8 months I had been feeling so weak and bogged down by injections. All that changed when I came here, not only did he work on my injury but also gave me the confidence and strength to work back into my pre-accident work out routine. It has been so hard to find genuinely great people but look no further this place is just truly amazing! Will recommend to everyone!!

Fantastic experience: I wasn't a patient here but enjoyed getting to know Dr Dan Peterson and the staff. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It's a new facility with all the amenities needed for physical therapy. I spoke with one of the patients who said that he was very happy with his progress and that he would highly recommend OPPT
