Prior to coming to Sports and Ortho, I walked with a limp because of the Achilles tendonitis. I had swelling that reduced a lot, and I could walk and stretch much better after therapy. My limping has stopped.

Before coming to Sports and Ortho, I had limited mobility and range of motion in my shoulder. After my sessions, my range of motion was drastically increased and my mobility was back at where it was before my injury.

Only been here a few months, wasn’t expecting much as I hate meeting new people in this type of environment. However, I was surprisingly impressed. I came in with carpal tunnel syndrome, and shoulder issues, and i hardly feel the carpal tunnel in my wrists anymore.

I came in on my own with an Achilles issue, suspected tendonitis. Id been doing home self care and come to a point where nothing was improving. Lauren has helped bring me back to a point where I can walk with little to no discomfort, which is a huge improvement.

5/5 (50 Reviews)
Michael MacLean 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Their assistance with my shoulder has been truly exceptional. I was really worried that I would not get much better and now I am almost back to 100%. I know, with their help, I will be. Everyone there is so warm and friendly. Making what could be a difficult time, so much easier. I wholeheartedly recommend this place and extend a special thank you to Ben, Jess, and Marie.

Voula Kanavas Pope 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: It’s a love / hate with this place … I hate that my joints require PT but if I’m going to get PT, it better be here . I *look forward* to my “dates” with Marie ! I’d be remiss not to mention the great Ben and Jess too! I hope to graduate some time post surgery , but really do I …?!

Isa Vázquez 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I don't usually post reviews, but this one writes itself. Sports & Ortho is a fantastic woman-owned clinic with world's friendliest staff. Thanks to them, the recovery process (and exercises involved) were fun and I looked forward to each appointment. Marie, Ben and the rest of the team at this location got me back to playing at my full capacity after a sprained ankle and my flexibility is better than it has EVER been. They also support local sports teams, clubs and nonprofits organizations like the Windy City Rollers!

Nora Linden 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m so grateful for everyone at Sports and Ortho! I went in with tight muscles and not being able to walk well and am leaving with the tools and knowledge to keep me mobile and flexible for years to come! Specific thanks to Marie who always pushed me to get through the hard work and for Ben for listening and adjusting programs when I needed. I appreciate that the environment felt relaxed while being steadfastly dedicated to achieving results. Could not recommend this team more!

Nick Hopson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had the best experience at this place! Jessica, Ben, and Marie helped me overcome knee pain on my routine runs all the way to the finish line of a half marathon. They were also great people to just chat with every week during treatment. Can’t thank this team enough or recommend this place more for PT needs.

Emma scanlon 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend the Lincoln Park location. Maria, Ben and Peg were always professional, friendly and helpful. I always felt they were concerned with my treatment and progress. It’s was a pleasure working with Maria post my first experience. Her knowledge and experience has helped me immensely. Thank you Lincoln Park.

Mary Scott Simpson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was having trouble staying upright while walking my dog, who's much younger than I am, even in dog years, especially when we were "ambushed" by another dog, so I contacted Sports & Ortho, Lincoln Park, for help with maintaining my balance and steadiness when walking. I'm so glad I did! I met with each of the therapists a number of times over the past three months and each one made a special contribution to my progress. Marie, Debbie, and Jessica all have their own distinctive approach to therapy that supplements the methods they, of course, have in common. Each one was always upbeat and encouraging, professional and personable, which made my sessions a pleasure. After working with me individually, the therapists handed me over to Ben, technician par excellence, who gave me clear instructions and kind encouragement as I practiced what I was learning. Jocelyn handled any scheduling problems I encountered with aplomb. All-in-all, these folks are a wonderful team: caring, skillful, and fun-to-be-around. I really appreciate their good care for me. Now my dog doesn't have to worry [she's kinda neurotic] about me falling on my face during our walks, no matter how "vociferously" she greets a neighbor's dog.

Helen Tunkel 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Jessica Thyer was my physical therapist for the last 6 month ….this girl has absolutely magical hands and very engaging, strong, compassionate and sweet personality ! Her skills and knowledge have helped me to improve dramatically from my different injuries , and I’m eternally grateful to her !!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart !

Susan Dennison 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Debbie has been a lifesaver for me. I was in so much pain and after two sessions felt 100% better. Highly recommend.

Fenell Doremus 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Marie, who it turns out, is one of the few physical therapists in Chicago who can treat vertigo. She knows her stuff and was a pleasure to get treatment from.

David Tian 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Sport and Ortho to everyone. Marie, Ben, Jess, and Peggy healed me after a meniscus repair surgery. Their expertise and care brought me from not being able to walk while in pain, to rock climbing and lifting again. I would not be doing what I love doing if it weren’t for the superb efforts of the Sports and Ortho staff. The soft tissue work and guided workouts really helped with my discomfort while I regained strength in a reassuring manner. The results were truly life changing.

Isaac Simon 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Marie Peggy and Ben are genuinely a superteam. Besides the PT being helpful and relieving most pain, I always felt very welcomed by a personable staff. They always made me laugh even while I was stretched all the way out.

Lenora 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: The entire team (Marie, Ben, & Peggy) are amazing. I went there for an old knee injury but while I was there - Marie fixed the pain in my arm too. I had been in pain for several months and my doctors could not figure it out. Within minutes Marie figured out the pain in my arm was actually caused by my neck and showed me stretches that alleviated the pain. Both my leg and arm feel so much better today thanks to the team here. I can’t believe I put it off so long . I highly recommend PT with Marie and her team.

FreshLens Chicago 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have spent my life involved in physical activity as a coach and teacher so my expectations are high. I worked with Jessica and was impressed with her professionalism, knowledge and compassion. I started at sports and ortho after a serious back operation. Over the course of six months she patiently saw me through greatest physical challenge of my life. I highly recommend Jessica at the Diversey site of Sports and Ortho. One advantage of Sports and Ortho over a number of other PT places I have gone to is that the therapist spends quite a bit of time with each patient.

Ashwin Pothukuchi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I entered with a lot of pain and left a new man. Jon, Jess, and Ben patiently helped me resolve my joint problems through a variety of strategies and exercises. They are very knowledgeable and open about how much you will pay from day 1.

Craig Kirsch 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Good place, good care, good people and reasonable rates. My PT Marie was great, and Ben was so helpful going over the exercises with me. They work hard and attentively to help you get back to full capacity. I highly recommend.

Maria W 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been attending PT with Jessica for 6 weeks now and I have seen tremendous improvements. I am so happy with the results. The entire team is great, however, I work primarily with Jessica and Ben and they are fantastic. They thoroughly explain what I am doing but also share the “why” and “how” the treatment will benefit me. I couldn’t be more pleased with the care and concern I am shown and am grateful for their help. I highly recommend their location. They are well trained, informed, and very nice and friendly people. Great vibe in the entire facility.

Ken Silber 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Jessica is a fantastic PT. She Listens to what you have to say, she listens to what doctors and other PTS have said, she takes measurements. And then makes data based treatment decisions. In my case, she had to do muscle loosening, mobilization, and exercise to solve my problem. She gives plenty of exercise… But is more than willing to adjust the way the needed muscles are Exercised so that it does not cause more pain in left or any other part of the body. And she videos the exercises with verbal instructions so that you can do them right at home The only problem I’ve had is that her boss keeps changing her schedule and it is sometimes difficult to get in to see her when you need to. Her boss needs to fix this. But I can clearly say that, having worked with her for more than six months To solve my problem, she was patient, perseverance, knowledgeable, skilled, and a wonderful person to work with

Mary S 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been to physical therapy at several other places over the years, and Sports and Ortho Lincoln Park is truly superior. The therapists really work to find the source of your pain and to develop a program to resolve it. I worked primarily with Cassidy and I can't say enough good things about her. She is both highly skilled and very kind and caring. My husband worked primarily with Jess and was similarly impressed. Highly recommend.

M _ 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I came in this late summer (2022) for help with what I believed was a right hip impingement (from weightlifting) that wouldn't go away after five months of trying to fix on my own. After spending two months with Cassidy, the impingement is gone!! Cassidy was professional, friendly, an attentive listener, and thorough in her approach. I felt welcomed and at ease from the moment I walked in and was welcomed every session by Ang (apologies if I misspelled) and Lejla. There was always a warm and happy atmosphere thanks to the whole team! I couldn't imagine a better physical therapy experience. It was critical that I continued Cassidy's advice to stretch and do the recommended exercises at home so I'm thankful that I was also able to learn about my injury and continue injury prevention at home once I left their office. Sport and Ortho, and this location specifically, is my go-to if I ever have another injury again!

Bill Jemison 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I could not be more pleased with the care I received at SportsOrtho at 1148 W Diversey. Jessica Beyer is, by far, the best physical therapist I have ever worked with. She is an excellent diagnostician, able to pin point exactly what the problem is, and then she is incredibly competent at being able to address the problem and bring healing. Jessica is very friendly and caring. She has a passion to help her patients get out of pain and back to their everyday activities. What a pleasure it has been to be under her care. The entire staff was also very helpful and friendly. I give them all an A+ !

Matt Mungai 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this location! With such fun and caring people it actually makes physical therapy enjoyable. This is my second stint at Sports and Ortho in Lincoln Park and I couldn’t be more thankful that I chose it again. Claire has helped me out so much, not only in getting me back to where I want to be physically, but she has such an extensive knowledge that I benefited equally as much by simply sitting there and soaking up information. Unfortunately my time there is not done, and with quite a long road ahead I am excited to get to work with such great people each and every week!

Shannon Cooley 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: After a LONG year of PT for shoulder surgeries, PT is the last place I wanted to spend my summer after tearing my ACL. However Sports and Ortho is really one of a kind! Being an athlete- I enjoy being challenged and hated going to PT every day and felt like I wasn’t making any progress at other previous clinics. I couldn’t have asked for a better PT than Cassidy who challenged me every day, got to know your tolerance level, and made sure I appreciated each and every little bit of progress- even on the frustrating days. Highly recommend her! When you are reminded of your progress from last week each session it definitely makes it so much easier to continue trying your best to complete your rehab regimen. She is knowledgeable in her skill set and is willing to try every different method that works toward your specific needs in order to support your progress. Her PTA Anje is great and makes it so easy to keep your session consistent and ask any questions. S&O is very individualized in their treatment and is not one of those places that gives you some exercises and shows you the door. Jess- their manager is willing to jump in and help in any way she can if you are trying to come up with other methods that might work for you. You’ll get the same PT every time and won’t be passed along PTs depending on the day like most places- which helps SO much when it comes to communication and tracking your progress. You won’t have to start over each time and really build on what you did last week. Being a smaller clinic, everyone knows your name, injury where you are at in your recovery, and is always willing to help without having to re-explain what you’re working on. Lejla at the front desk is always great and is there for any questions or concerns in billing or scheduling. I have been to many PT places over the years and I definitely wish I would’ve found S&O sooner in my recovery because each member of their staff really truly cares about not only getting you back on the field but making sure you know how to prevent injuries in the future. Thank you S&O team!

Ernestine Hopkins 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My doctor referred me to Sports Ortho in Lincoln Park for PT treatment of plantar fasciitis. My therapist (Cassidy) was great to work with and was able to reduced my pain on my first visit, and eliminate all pain by the last. The staff (Leila, Aunge) were very friendly and made the overall experience very pleasant. I am now pain free. I highly recommend this Sports Ortho center in Lincoln Park.

vickie Nemerow 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: It was rotator cuff problems that brought me to Sports Ortho. Just one step in the door and the entire staff welcomes you in. One minute later, you are warming up. Their dedication to keeping the equipment clean and sanitized, along with mandatory masks has put my mind at ease during these COVID times. Everyone works well together there, assisting you with your stretching and strengthening exercises. Cash and Jonathon both have unique knowledge to modify any exercise that is not quite right for you. A special note to my therapist Jessica, she’s warm and friendly yet serious about your therapy. She is a great multitasker, never losing track of me. I feel confident in her knowledge and training for which I am already showing progress. She has been very dedicated to my therapy, making sure that I continue doing my exercises at home and that I know the proper form to do them correctly. You couldn’t ask for more. Sports Ortho is getting me back on my feet safely. I feel very comfortable there and my time always flies by.

Eric McAlpine 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely excellent location. Amanda is knowledgeable and engaging and will leave you feeling supported and with the correct information in order to help your injury however you need to. I had a tear in the plantar fascia on my foot and it was a rough recovery in a boot and wraps for like 6 weeks, then spent 4 weeks at Sports and Ortho and felt ready and willing to hop back into playing soccer once a week, with some assistance from them to ease the transition. The do not discriminate here, do not judge, do not treat you any differently due to your personal views, feelings or identities. You will always be welcomed and free to speak about whatever you like with them safely. Great prices, and assistance with making sure your insurance coverage applies, and if not will recommend you elsewhere. Definitely give it a try. It's never too late to start healing, strengthening, and exercising. Cheers.

Fantastic experience: Cash and his team provided beyond exceptional care in rehabbing my left knee back to full mobility. In Aug 2020, I dislocated my left knee cap running, after which I not only endured physical pain and limitations to mobility, but also experienced a level of PTSD. Cash listened to my concerns with genuine interest and used my feedback to develop a tailored rehab plan. With his guidance, I've been able to confidently run, jump, and play sports again. I would 100% recommend Cash to anyone that is seeking attentive and quality care, it's worth it even if its out of network!

Diane Peterson 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Sports and Ortho for 2 months now for a sciatic nerve issue that caused pain, tingling, numbness and muscle weakness down my entire right leg and foot. Jess and Amanda have been super helpful in getting me back to a healthy state and I'm even starting to run again (albeit slowly). They both are very professional and knowledgeable and have consistently altered their approach as I progressed. They also have provided me with a lot of useful information and tools to continue my progress at home. I would highly recommend either of them if you need great quality and caring physical therapy. Also, a quick shout out for Carl and Jonathan for guiding me through the proper way to do stretching and exercises. They always provide encouraging support. And of course, Amber, for helping keep all our schedules aligned. Thank you Sports and Ortho!

Tracey Peters 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is my third round of therapy due to several injuries and follow up after each surgery. My experience has been fantastic and they make therapy actually "fun" with their interactive personalities. The care and compassion is genuine and they make sure needs are not just met in sessions, but carried over at home. I can not recommend the office enough and sing their praises with my physicians to keep referrals coming to their offices. The office promotes internships and the mentoring is so appreciated as every great practitioner needs a start like they provide. I miss them already!!!!

Anastasia 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I LOVE Sports and Ortho!! I have been going there for almost a year now, and have been so happy with every staff member there. My therapist is very skilled and attentive and personalizes my treatment every session to meet my goals and needs. I have made a lot of improvement thanks to them and will soon be graduating PT, with lots of strategies to take with me. I have been in and out of PT for a very long time, and this is definitely one of my favorite places! I have even referred friends who have had great experiences too.

mj Hannigan 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: The very professional staff at Sports & Ortho did an outstanding job of first, helping to evaluate my problem and second to aid me in recovery after total hip replacement. The Physical Therapists, Cash and Erica, are at the top of their game. They work collaboratively while creating a welcoming environment. Assisting them are the trainers Jonathon and Kevin who compliment the PT’s strategies. I’d also like readers to know that their Admin Amber makes sure all your health insurance requirements are attended to, as well as, insuring to remind patients of their schedules. In only 3 months I went from hip replacement surgery to fully functional gym rat. And I’m 60 years old! Great job team!!!!

Cassie Mendoza 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend after a long journey to find a quality physical therapist office. Only PT office I will use/recommend. You spend a decent amount of time on the table with your therapist along with lots of stretches and exercises. Erica and Cash are super talented and knowledgeable physical therapists. I’ve been working with Erica who has been helpful in my journey after shoulder surgery. Love the different techniques she uses like dry needling and cupping. The PT techs are also great and well-informed of exercises/stretches.

J Wood 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went to Sports and Ortho Physical Therapy with back pain and knee pain from a knee replacement. The therapists explained to me how everything was connected and helped me understand the importance (and effectiveness) of stretching and strengthening to alleviate the pain I was feeling. They made sure that I was doing the prescribed exercises correctly (not just going through the motions) and prepared a program of exercises for me to do at home to achieve maximum benefit. The therapists and assistants were always professional and answered my (many) questions patiently and thoroughly. They spent a great deal of time with me one-on-one and I never felt rushed. Sports and Ortho Physical Therapy has helped me feel better than I have in many years. My range of motion improved tremendously and I was able to completely straighten my “replaced” knee. I would highly recommend Dahlia and her team.

Danya Rosen 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Sports & Ortho PT. I went in for some persistent knee pain while training for a distance race, and left with not only pain resolution, but a much deeper understanding of the root causes of the pain, preventative and strengthening exercises, and great tips for training! I worked most closely with Cash (who is excellent), but everyone at the Lincoln Park location (Erica, Jonathon, and others) were all friendly, thorough, and knowledgeable. It was my first time in PT, and I didn't know what to expect, and I was impressed by how the vibe at Sports & Ortho PT felt both very professional and highly skilled, while also comfortable, friendly, and dynamic. I saw Cash initially via telehealth, but then felt comfortable going in person. Cash is outstanding - highly recommend! He is so knowledgeable about everything, was encouraging, and also explained things in a way that really made sense.

Sara Schroeder 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently visited Sports and Ortho Physical Therapy after a shoulder injury. I had an evaluation with Cash, who was incredibly professional and knowledgeable in his assessment as well as how he transitioned into treatment. My injury was a bit of a mystery, but I was impressed with the way he was able to test and narrow down what my problem was in a way no one else has ever been able to. His insight was great and now I am able to continue my life while making adjustments that are specific to my individual needs. He is very accommodating, understanding and a true student of his practice- I highly recommend him and his team.

Fantastic experience: As a result of a severe rotator cuff injury one year ago, difficult surgical repair and then rehab delayed by Covid-19, I was told that I was in for a long and tough recovery and was anxiously searching for a PT location nearby -- thankfully a neighbor provided the perfect recommendation / referral. The Sports + Ortho Lincoln Park / Lakeview amazing crew featuring PT Erica, PT techs Kevin and Jonathan and office director Amber under the tremendous leadership of PT and manager Cash have all been wonderful in their dedication and very caring commitment to my long recovery journey. From our day one meeting and evaluation, my awesome and very experienced PT Erica with a calm and caring manner lead me painstakingly through the first five difficult months of therapy and recovery. Working from month six on with both Cash and Erica has been easy with their seamless communication along with the techs helping to accelerate and advance my rehab progress. Incredibly skilled and attentive Cash, Erica and techs Kevin and Jonathan have always helped to alleviate anxiety and concerns I've had while patiently listening and guiding me every step of the way through my personalized plans of exercise and therapy. I feel so fortunate to have found this very special place and this very special and caring PT family and highest recommendation to anyone in need -- you'll be in great hands!

Taylor Keazirian 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough great things about Cash and the team at Sports and Ortho! Even after our initial meeting, they remembered all my injuries and everything we had gone over. I immediately felt welcomed and cared for. They create personalized treatment programs and individualized care - they really get to know you on a personal level. I looked forward to my weekly appointments, and each week I saw continued improvements! After “graduating” from the program several months ago, I am still pain and symptom free! They provided me with at home strengthening exercises that were incredibly helpful! I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone and everyone!!

Bethany Tomasian 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: The team at Sports and Ortho are truly amazing, the atmosphere here is extremely warm and welcoming. Every member of the staff is an expert, I always feel comfortable in their care. Erica, Kevin, Cash, Jambi, and Amber gave me a great experience from the moment I walked in. When I was first referred here by my physician I had a lot of trouble walking post-surgery and in only a month, I have been able to gain back almost all of my range of motion!

Rebecca Ruff 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: So happy my doctor recommended Cash Dewitt for my PT. I have lower back issues that have been preventing me from doing some activities. They were very comprehensive in tackling how to strengthen and support my lower back and bulging disks. After 3 or 4 sessions and doing the exercises everyday I finally felt confident to go back to the gym. I know I have to be mindful and if issues arise again I will be calling Cash to help set me straight. I highly recommend Sports & Ortho and Cash Dewitt. The place was clean and well set up for these times.

Oraine Neslon 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Sports & Ortho is a great establishment! I can’t say enough nice things about the awesome staff at the Diversey location. As soon as you walk in through the front door, you’re greeted with a calming energy by everyone on the floor. Cash (the PT I have been working with), is as good as they come. He’s always ready to answer any questions you may have about an ailment, and frequently takes extra time to make sure that you leave feeling better than you did when you walked in. His trainers Jonathon, and Kevin are also top notch. They both know how to approach different movement styles to accommodate any one patient’s needs. Like I said, there aren’t enough nice things I can say about this place. I plan on returning time and time again, at least for as long as I reside in the city of Chicago.

Samantha Saggese 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about the treatment I received at Sports & Ortho LP. I came to them for help with a hip injury from running and biking and was impressed by their multifaceted approach for overcoming sports injuries. I was not expecting to be offered alternative therapies such as dry needling, but it really made a significant difference in my recovery. The team gave me personalized care and have the kind of personalities that make you want to keep coming back. I highly recommend this PT office for sports injuries.

Max Rey 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Overall I had a great experience here. If I needed any more PT I would definitely come back and I would recommend this place to a friend. I had sprained my ankle and it feels much better now. I am able to run, take hard cuts, and kick. I worked with Cash, Kevin, and Jonathan. They were all friendly, helpful, and made this whole experience a pleasant one. They were also very accommodating and flexible for scheduling appointments. I have a small suggestion. After my first appointment I was not sure if physical therapy would actually be helpful or not as I had never done it. I thought time would be the main factor in the healing process. I only realized i was wrong on my second visit when Cash started digging into my calf and I realized that there were a lot of things that needed to be dealt with. I would suggest at least pointing this kind of things out in the first session to really show how beneficial the therapy will be as to not lose the wrongfully skeptical people like me. But once again, this process was a very positive experience. Thank you Cash, Kevin, Jonathan, and everybody at Sports and Ortho Lincoln Park.

Fantastic experience: By far the best Physical Therapy in Chicago! And I have been to many! I am a clinical Massage Therapist and have had PT in several of the high ranking larger facilities for the same issue and have never had my recurring problem resolved. EVER. 3 weeks with Dhalia and I have full recovery, no recurrence and am now a patient for life! I am never going anywhere else! Sports Ortho identify the root cause of the issue and address the whole body not just the area of pain which is essential for long term success and results. I was pleasantly surprised at how much Manual Therapy they do! The dry needling was expertly administered with fantastic results (And it's not as sore as everyone says) Don't hesitate to book an appointment here, you will never go anywhere else again!

Fantastic experience: I had such a wonderful experience here with Cash, Erica, and Jessica! They were all so great about asking about my goals when I first started and continually checking in each visit as to how they were being met. I always felt comfortable asking any questions I had and always felt like I could call in between appointments if I needed to. Between cupping and stretches, I was able to quickly reach my goals! I hope to stay healthy, but if I do need PT again, I'm glad I have a place I'm so excited to come back to!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience here with Cash, Erica, Jess, & the whole team. I've been to quite a few different physical therapists and Cash was by far the best I've had! Cash was not only invested in helping me recover from my injury but also my long term health and running. I left each appointment feeling like I was at least one step closer to recovery. As a runner, it is often hard to find a PT who understands competitive running and related injuries. I really appreciated that Cash understood running from a personal and professional point of view. Cash is always smiling and has such a great attitude. And the whole staff is knowledgeable and takes the time to explain what they are doing. Also, everyone is very friendly and took the time to get to know me. I will definitely come back for any future physical therapy needs and I would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had the best experience with Sports and Ortho!!!! Amber was amazing for help with billing and scheduling. They had times available for me both before and after work, which really helped get me the treatment I needed. I enjoyed getting to work with Jess, Cash, Jonathan and Kevin. They were very personable, and I enjoyed the time I got to spend with them each week. I even had a European trip planned during my treatment and Jess made sure to give me all the exercises and support I needed for my trip abroad. I would highly recommend this team.

Fantastic experience: I have used Cash, Kevin and the team on 2 occasions. The latest, following knee surgery was a fantastic experience. Cash, the therapist, is very hands on and personally involved in all aspects of recovery. He is smart and caring. The modalities used to get patients healthy are unique and personally catered to the injury, the age of the patient and their goals. In my case, it was to return to sport. The results have been amazing. Kevin and the staff are fantastic as well. Super knowledgeable and, believe it or not, a fun place to treat at if you have to!

Fantastic experience: The best physical therapy you can ask for! Everyone is so welcoming and every session is personal. Cash, Kevin, Erica, and Amber are professional, knowledgeable, and caring. Cash is a passionate physical therapist who worked diligently to lead me through the ACL healing process. My training was always hands on and tailored to give me the best results. The best part of coming to this clinic is that everyone always made it fun! I am back to all of my normal sports and activities thanks to the team. I would highly recommend Sports & Ortho to anyone needing PT.

Fantastic experience: Staff at this location is absolutely amazing. Cash and his support team are great at what they do. I came in with severe back pain and Cash tried various approaches until we found what worked and today I am pain free. I also saw them post torn meniscus surgery and again, they were able to address my needs, and I don’t have any problems with my knee anymore. Cash was always very responsive to my concerns and made sure that any therapy we did matched the level my body could handle while motivating me to work on my weaknesses. Staff is very caring and will call to check up on you. Kevin will make sure you make it to your appointment or will find a time that works for you. They are accommodating which is so important for someone with a busy schedule. They are great at communicating with the insurance as well. They make the therapy fun. If I ever need PT again, I’m definitely going back there. Bonus: if you drive to their location, they pay for your parking.

Fantastic experience: Working Cash and Kevin has been such a great experience. They are very professional and have really helped me come back close to 100%. After my surgery, I could barely walk and was extremely weak in my leg. They were optimistic about my recovery from day 1 which I believe helped me push myself. In nearly every session, I walk away very impressed with Cash's knowledge of joints and various techniques to minimize my pain. He has made my recovery so much better. If you are looking for PT, check this place out and I am certain you will be happy. Paying for street parking is a great bonus as well.
