Prevent Physical Therapy, INC

Fantastic experience: Jim is an excellent PT and provides a top notch service. I have had knee issues all of my life and because of this I have unfortunately developed many compensation patterns. Jim provided a thorough examination and developed a personalized plan to address my issues. He explains movement limitations along with the movements needed to improve mobility and strength which empowers the patient to work independently. He even sent information to my personal trainer to get her on board with my treatment plan. It has been an amazing experience. I recommend Jim with the highest regards!

Fantastic experience: I have been regularly seeing Jim Hoese at his state of the art facility at Prevent Physical Therapy for over 15 months now.

His professional, detailed, expert and thoughtful approach to treatment is 1st class, he has helped me with increased mobility, pain management, personalized a custom homework plan filled with videos and information and an given me an overall better understanding of my injuries and how to treat them. I truly look forward to seeing him every session and every week.

Thanks again for all your help and support, I am sincerely grateful for all the personalized treatment, wisdom, and care you have shown me and can proudly say I couldn't have gotten back to a regular life, pain free without you! Forever Grateful!!!

Fantastic experience: I've had many successful rehab experiences with other PT, but they only were able to treat specific issues. However, as I am getting older, I found that I needed rehab from turning 60. And this is what Jim has provided. He's designed a program for me that addresses all the aches and pains that come along with not being 50 anymore. His diagnostic skills are amazing. He listens, assesses, reevaluates, and adjusts.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough about Jim's expertise and care. He really works with clients to help them feel better and feel empowered to manage their symptoms. He takes pride in helping each and every one of his clients to feel and perform at their best.

Fantastic experience: Jim at Prevent PT really helped me when I had nagging pain from BJJ. Definitely give him a shot!

Fantastic experience: James is a legit PT. He asked lots good questions . He did not assume or rush any diagnosis. Good listener and had good feedback. No hard sales at the end and made me feel very comfortable asking questions. He gave his blessing to continue to ask questions and reach out even after the appointment. I feel like James actually cares and gives a dam. Id recommend his business.

Fantastic experience: Jim is a rock star. In only a few weeks/twice a week he released my post surgery frozen ankle using manual therapy and direct, videotaped instructions(those tapes really helped afterwards, to get the exercises done at home). He understands anatomy and best strategies for recovery. You are there one on one, absolutely private and focused appointments. Thanks Jim for all your hard work.

Fantastic experience: James is a top notch professional of physical therapy. His knowledge is vast and he has taught me a lot about my injury and body mechanics. He also provides excellent soft tissue work. To add, he is a pleasant person which puts you at ease when you are dealing with injury and pain. I highly recommend working with him.

Fantastic experience: I had arthroscopic knee surgery and needed good PT. Most PT offices had no time for me and some did not even call back at all. Jim called back right away. Super nice guy. And I learned that he is a one man show. In the good way. A very well equipped PT studio with everything that you need and no receptionist. One person in the space at a time. It was great. Very professional. Jim was always ready for me on time and worked hard on my knee and overall therapy plan/ regime. Even with my truncated and difficult timing, we made huge progress and I feel better that months prior to my surgery. He communicates clearly, gives good online homework and clearly knew exactly what I needed and will need both anatomically and in terms of my time and future physical demands. I would recommend Jim to anyone. You would be lucky to have him.

Fantastic experience: Jim is a great Physical Therapist! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Jim Hoese at Prevent PT for almost a year. He helped me rehab a recurring knee injury and is currently helping rehab after total knee replacement surgery. His diagnostic and therapeutic skills are stellar. Not only does he provide strengthening programs and suggestions for home exercises, he provided expert manual manipulation of my knee to decrease scar tissue and increase range of movement. Perhaps a bonus is that Jim is motivational, kind and professional. Very attentive and available.

Fantastic experience: As a 76 year old with 2 knee replacements, I was feeling constant pains in my joints. Jim helped put me on a schedule that relieved my aches and pain, and gave me back strength. Thanks

Fantastic experience: Dr. Hoese was a lifesaver for me. I was coming out of an injury on top of shoulder surgery and I was in 11/10 pain. I struggled to find a PT that could offer personalized service. After seeing 3 PTs that offered 10 min of hands on and then put me on some generic ice machine or stim, I needed to find someone that was willing to devise a short. medium, and long-term plan and someone willing to take that journey with me. Dr. Hoese is that person. He is interested in not only treating symptoms, but treating the root cause of the issue. I find most PTs miss this point entirely. Dr. Hoese runs this business and is hands on the whole 60+ minutes. He regularly follows up in between visits and gives you milestones and exercises to hit before the next visit. I went from unable to function/sleep to seeing a recovery path in short order. I would recommend Dr. Hoese to anyone that takes recovery seriously and wants to get back to a pain free life. Thanks Dr. Hoese for all of your differentiated service. It's hard to find people that truly care. Thanks again for getting me back to life!

Fantastic experience: After suffering through lower back issues for over a year, I noticed my condition was only worsening. Eventually, I was referred to see Jim Hoese at Prevent PT by a friend from the gym. We discovered my injury was most likely a misdiagnosed herniated disc from an old injury. A reoccurring issue was “throwing my back out” once a month for about 4 or 5 months in a row. Because of these lower back problems, there were days I could barely walk, barely lift anything, struggled to put my shoes on, couldn’t bend over to use the sink while brushing my teeth, and couldn’t even bend over to pick up my 8 month old son. This made my work days and home life very challenging. All I could really do was lay down. Previously, I had seen 2 or 3 other physical therapists for the same problems. Their goals were essentially to get you good enough at the time of therapy to where they could turn you loose because you were good enough on that day. Seeing Jim for just about 2 months, my mobility and strength are the best they’ve been for over a year now. I noticed results just after the 3rd visit. I can walk without being in pain now, lift things from the ground, and pick my 10 month old son up from out of his crib now and not having to worry about blowing out my lower back again for the 6th time this year. From the initial diagnosis of what may be the problem, to the very detailed session plan leading to your recovery and prevention, Jim is very patient and communicable as to what the plan is for the day, the next session, and your end goals. With other PT specialists I’ve seen, you check in and basically they sit you on a machine or they give you a workout and they leave while you train. Jim actually watches you throughout each exercise to ensure you are moving properly and effectively, and not in such a way to re-injure yourself. Jim is super knowledgeable, thorough, encouraging, and has a more vast understanding of his field than any other PT specialist I’ve worked with. His goal is truly to get you to be better than you were before you started having issues- whatever they may be, and to prevent you from having any of those issues ever again. He’ll provide you with tools you can use past the point of therapy, and it is very apparent in his work that he is truly invested in your recovery and injury prevention. If you’re seeking a physical therapy doctor, look no further. Jim Hoese at Prevent PT is the one, and I cannot recommend him enough. Thanks to him, I can finally hold my son again :)

Fantastic experience: I started using Prevent PT after I injured my knee playing soccer in June 2021. I had sprained my MCL, tore both my meniscus, ruptured my ACL & broke my tibia. I was unable to drive for a while so it was so helpful that Jim was able to come to my house for my therapy appointments. Jim explained everything in detail about what had to take place before surgery as well as after surgery & what I should expect. He was instrumental in getting me ready for my ACL replacement surgery that I had in September 2021. Jim actually helped me figure out that I had blood clots in my leg post surgery & I am not sure if I would have figured out so quickly what was going on without his help. He was very patient & kind & helped me reach out to my surgeon to get an ultrasound scheduled the same day. Having blood clots slowed down my rehab but Jim was there the whole time checking in on me. He is very professional, knowledgeable, caring & compassionate. You can tell he enjoys his profession & is passionate about helping you get back to doing the things you enjoy. I also really like that Jim plays soccer because I think it helps him understand my desire to get back onto the soccer field. I am so grateful that I found Jim and I will recommend him to all of my family and friends.

Fantastic experience: I have worked in the field of physical therapy for 15 years and Jim is the best PT I have come across. Jim does a great job of finding dysfunction and treating it to relieve pain and optimize performance. I have seen Jim for multiple issues over the years and he has greatly helped me each time. I highly recommend Jim to anyone who is looking to heal from an injury, especially a chronic injury that has not healed with previous bouts of PT. Go see Jim, you will be happy with your results.

Fantastic experience: Ji is super knowledgeable, professional and personal. He is excellent at identifying dysfunctional movement patterns that lead to injury and decrease athletic performance. I came to him to improve my ability to perform at a high level surfing and the growth in just over a month is phenomenal. For anyone who wants to perform their best in whatever they like to do and feel good doing it, Jim is the PT to see!

Fantastic experience: Jim is great at what he does. From first contacting him, he was able to make time to see me almost immediately. During our first session he brought everything necessary to do a full workup from a PT perspective and let me know exactly what my problem was and what had to be done to address it. We had 2 additional sessions in which he guided me through the exercises I should be doing and together we devised a plan for my recovery. At this point Jim felt like his work was done and didn't try to waste my money on additional sessions. He gave me all the knowledge and an arsenal of exercises I'd need. In addition, he was also able to make me 2 sets of custom orthodics which he provided to me at cost. Overall great experience, don't hesitate to give him a call.

Fantastic experience: Prevent PT has been amazing for my two sons who play competitive soccer. Jim was able to not only address the issues they were having, one with their quad and the other with their hamstring, but he was able to set up a program for them to prevent future injuries. He addressed their whole body movement, not just their "problem area". We have seen a drastic improvement in a short time by following the program recommended by PreventPT. I cannot say enough good things about how great the program PreventPT offers is. I highly recommend it for all athletes. Jim has instilled confidence and encouragement to help my boys get ready to get back out on the soccer field, injury-free.
