Lake Washington Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: Jordan was my physical therapist for a dislocated shoulder recovery. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of the concerns I had (e.g. expected recovery time and limitations of range of movement for each step of recovery.) He went into the details as needed, such as elaborating on the muscular structure of the shoulder and how each exercise helps with the recovery. His expertise greatly helped in my understanding of the recovery process. In a matter of weeks, I recovered enough to get my regular range of motion. By the time I finished my physical therapy journey, my dislocated shoulder was stronger than my other shoulder. To this day, the shoulder workout routine is part of my regular exercise regiment for both of my shoulders. Thank you Jordan for all the help you provided. I highly recommend Lake Washington Physical Therapy.

Fantastic experience: When I started having some shoulder pain issues, my doctor referred me to Lake Washington Physical Therapy. I worked with Brandon and he was excellent figuring out in-session and at-home exercises to help my shoulder regain strength and recover, and in a way that matched well with my schedule and personal working preferences :) Thank you Brandon and Lake Washington Physical Therapy!

Fantastic experience: The concept of Return To Play therapy is great for me who between injury and pandemic work from home became very inactive. Heidi is a fantastic therapist, super knowledgeable, really pays attention is continually adapting my program as I make progress.

Fantastic experience: I have been visiting them for a couple of months now. It started with a PF Knee Injury. I worked with KERRI SMITH, who has a deep knowledge and understanding of the knee. After taking a few sessions with her, I was able to do normal daily activities and my knee was much better. I am also working on issues related to my back and she has given me exercises which strengthen and stretch the correct muscles.

Fantastic experience: I've seen Mandie for about a decade and she's always provided top-notch first-class observant and meticulously accurate treatment and exercises. In one instance she took away years of tingling and numbing problem of my right arm, I even bought arthritis cream from Costco thinking it's just old age (in my 40s) with one simple exercise. Beat out all the docs, chiropractor, misuse after years of mystery. She's always professional, cheerful, helpful, personable, and extremely insightful. The office staff is friendly, they'd call monthly just as another months' appointment slots open to ensure we get our appointments in. My son who swims competitively goes to Mandie too and he asked about a pair of shoes he saw at the office and we got them at way below the MSRP cost and the shoe inset right at the office. A few times when we had to cancel, we donated 4 cans of food per cancellation and the fee was waived. Overall it's a wonderful environment and we recommend it with the highest rating.

Fantastic experience: The therapists at LWPT that have worked on my post surgery foot and toes (Mandie and Kamy) have done a fantastic job. I have more pt before I reach my goal but I have every confidence that they’ll get me there. Besides gaining flexibility in my toes, they’re providing pt that helps with my extreme calf tightness and hip strength.

Fantastic experience: Lake WA PT is excellent! The staff are very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I can’t recommend them highly enough especially if you are recovering from an surgery/injury and are active. They will get you back to doing what you love.

Fantastic experience: Great exercises and movements. Mandie is very thorough in telling me what exercises to do and how to do them. They are very hard and my situation has improved a lot.

Fantastic experience: LWPT is easily one of the best PT clinics in the greater Seattle area. If you are a dedicated athlete or a weekend warrior type LWPT will help you maintain your health and get you back and active as quickly as possible. Ben and his experienced crew of PTs go beyond standard PT clinics. They assess weaknesses and provide excellent workout solutions to shore up those weaknesses. They are also approach PT with an athlete mindset, setting clear goals, milestones, and outcomes for each stage in treatment.

Fantastic experience: Top notch PT clinic! They really do things the right way. Mandie Majerus is one of the best PT's in the region for outdoor athletes, such as skiers, climbers, and trail runners.

Fantastic experience: I strongly recommend Taylor Graham as an excellent Physical Therapist who is highly capable, beyond competent, and able to drive excellent outcomes in working with her patients. Her strong background and experience shows through with the highly effective physical therapy strategies that she employs. I had a total knee replacement surgery in August, 2023 and went to Taylor for pre-op and post-op physical therapy. I attribute the ease of recovery from my procedure largely to Taylor's expertise in driving results. In addition, she has great social skills in interacting with people and is able to address their unique needs. Through Taylor's guidance, I have exceeded expectations in recovering from the knee replacement procedure. I highly recommend Taylor and Lake Washington PT if you are considering a procedure and need Physical Therapy. Denise Wells, This pertains to the Downtown Kirkland location for Lake Washington PT

Fantastic experience: Katie is an amazing physical therapist! Same with her intern Julia! They got me back up to great health after a knee surgery and back into powerlifting after I was hit by a car. Couldn’t have asked for a better company or PTs! They were very responsive to my questions, very kind, and very understanding throughout my visits.

Fantastic experience: I have had a lot of physical therapy in my life and always dreaded it. Katie Hutchins at LWPT changed my mind! Great facility, fantastic therapist. Highly recommend for approach and results.

Fantastic experience: My experience at LWPT has been great. The entire staff is responsive and professional. I was able to book an appointment with them easily and quickly. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: My physical therapist was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and positive about my potential outcome. I learned a ton about how to improve and maintain my neck and upper back muscles and joints, and live in so much less pain today. I will absolutely go back if I am in need of physical therapy again.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Kerri for any prenatal PT needs! She has been excellent in all areas! Educational, kind and you know that she is on your team as you prepare for birth.

Fantastic experience: LWPT Kirkland is the best! They’ve put me back together after three sports injuries so I could get back to my lifestyle and continue having fun.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Lake Washington Physical Therapy! I worked with Jordan to manage my knee pain and he was both an excellent physical therapist and very kind and professional. He showed lots of empathy while still being direct and honest on what I needed to do to help my knee recover. Once again, I had a great experience there and I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: We highly recommend Lake Washington Physical Therapy. When one of our team members, Chris, injured himself in a car accident, his physical therapist, Kami, got him back to work quickly. He praised the ease of getting appointments, good patient policies, and the physical therapist’s knowledge base that helped him recover and feel better. A separate incident had him seeing Devon, who was able to quickly evaluate his injury and get him back on track to being 100 percent. We value our relationship with quality health professionals that keep our team well and at our jobsites, so we can serve our clients. Owner Ben Wobker and Lake Washington Physical Therapy are top notch!

Fantastic experience: On a seemingly fine day, I managed to tear my ACL while playing badminton, just doing what I think I always do on the court... In 03/2023, I received an ACL reconstruction + microfracture on patella surgery on my left knee. Mandie M. from Lake Washington Physical Therapy became my physical therapist and I couldn't begin to tell you how great she is. Due to the added microfracture on the knee cap, my exercise has to be modified from the conventional ACL rehab. Mandie is knowledgeable and experienced, she also listens well. Staff is courteous, the location is great and parking is easy. I highly recommend this clinic.

Fantastic experience: Over the past year I worked with Jordan for tennis elbow and to my ankle that broke playing soccer. Jordan is very professional and right to the point. The plan that he provided to me helped me get back to my trainings fast. In fact I started running 2 months ago and ran 5miles yesterday for the first time in a year. Strongly recommend LWPT and Jordan!

Fantastic experience: Lake Washington Physical therapy has helped me work on the strength and function of my knee. Devin has helped me progress to a more intensive exercise program and I'm back to mountain biking on the weekends. I highly recommend LWPT!

Fantastic experience: I have been to Lake Washington Physical Therapy on Kirkland Ave, Kirkland for 3 different injuries, with 3 different Physical Therapists. Each time I was absolutely certain physical therapy was NOT going to help my issue. I was 100% wrong each time. The Physical Therapists at Lake Washington Physical Therapy are top notch practitioners in each of their specialties (I've had shoulder, knee and back issues) and I've been brought back to 100% functionality each time. I would highly recommend using Lake Washington Physical Therapy. Sincerely, Jay Connelly

Fantastic experience: Best PT clinic I have ever been to! I am a high school Cross Country/Track coach and I send all my high school athletes here. Knowledgeable sports-specific staff, kind and involved in the community.

Fantastic experience: The staff at Lake Washington Physical Therapy are so kind and I am so happy I chose this location for my PT. The front desk staff is always friendly & always has a smile on their face (even at 6am). I work with Devin who is attentive, knowledgeable, and very personable, which makes the experience every appointment wonderful. Highly recommend checking their downtown location out if you need it!

Fantastic experience: We love working with Lake WA PT. It was our first experience with a physical therapist and Heidi was beyond wonderful. My 13yo is all better and set up for success thanks to her and all of her help!!

Positive experience: Nice, friendly staff. Clean and organized facilities. Professional staff that listen to their patients. So much better service than ATI PT where they just give you exercises and don't want to do any hands-on treatment.

Fantastic experience: LWPT has an amazing staff! They are friendly and helpful towards patients. I feel that I am getting the help and support I need in making a full recovery from my injury. LWPT does a great job of providing support and guidance to their patients. In addition, the exercises they provide are useful and have made my recovery stronger moving forward.

Fantastic experience: Just completed about 4 months of PT work recovering from a rotator cuff injury. I have thoroughly enjoyed my visits. The staff are great to work with. Jordan in particular is very knowledgeable, love his positive energy and excellent bedside manner. He understands the journey and predicted exactly how we would progress. Can’t say enough good things, highly recommend! I would say will come again if it didn’t require another injury :)

Fantastic experience: Everyone I dealt with was so nice! They were able to get me in quickly when I had a sudden issue (within 10 days), and my physical therapist Kamy was so sweet and nice and was able to give me exercises I could do that worked around my other physical and psychological issues. There is also very convenient parking which makes it easy to go!

Fantastic experience: My experience with LWPT has been fantastic! My therapist Anne has been wonderful, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I'm a professional ballet dancer, so having a therapist with a background in dance has been amazing as she has the knowledge to tailor my exercises to meet the specific needs of a ballet dancer. Anne has not only helped me in my recovery from my injury, but also to create a plan to return to work an overall stronger dancer.

Fantastic experience: Lake Washington PT Kirkland is a 10-Star facility. I have been a patient there through multiple years of surgeries, seen several different therapists, and have found a consistent standard of excellence, not only in the therapy I have received, but in customer service- an expression that has almost become an oxymoron in this day of call centers and digital everything. At many facilities it is next to impossible to contact your medical practitioner and get a response. After listening to endless AI messages directing you to press one number after another, patients are routed through layers of people who do follow-up without really knowing you or your situation. At Lake WA PT, when you call you are connected immediately to a human being who is onsite, behind the desk. When you arrive for an appointment, instead of asking you to recite personal information in the lobby, they greet you by name. I have watched them give the same thoughtful and personal care to every patient who arrives. If you have need to email your therapist, the email goes to the therapist, not a call center of detached personnel. While I hope never to need PT again, there is no question where I would come. On every level this is a world class facility.

Fantastic experience: Great communication, all my questions answered, very polite, professional staff. Clean environment. I have only worked with Kerrie Smith and she is absolutely the BEST. Although I have heard everyone there is great. Kerrie takes the time to listen and she genuinely cares and wants me to be the best I can be. I absolutely love working with her and I’m enjoying my healing journey. Highly recommend. Best place ever!!!!!

Fantastic experience: While Physical Therapy is not something that is super fun, my experience with Megan and Jordan at LWPT has been wonderful. They are knowledgeable, kind, gentle (as can be ) and have made my foot and shoulder rehab as pleasant as possible. This is the only place I will come for PT.

Fantastic experience: I have received therapy twice at LWPT, once by Ben and once by Taylor Graham. I have used orthotics for grumpy feet for more than 40 years and no one has been able to craft an orthotic that my left foot liked, until I discovered Ben. Taylor provided therapy for painful tendinitis in my right knee. I was impressed by her knowledge and expertise. I saw steady improvement in my knee through the effective exercises she prescribed. When a stretch or exercise was difficult for me she was adept at modifying it to my situation. And she provided helpful advice for other physical problems not related to my knee. She is friendly and easy to talk to. I have no doubt that I will need physical therapy again and when I do I won’t hesitate to seek care at Lake Washington Physical Therapy.

Fantastic experience: I brought my 12yo son to Jordan for a baseball injury. Jordan was professional, caring and tough (in a good way). Jordan's diagnosis was thorough and the way he presented it to my son and myself was not only easy to understand, but comforting. My son had an injury that had not been helped by another PT and continued to not be able to play as he normally had during the baseball season. Jordan immediately made a corrected diagnosis and designed workouts to re-engage the shoulder muscles and essentially "turn them on" in the correct manner. Jordan went above and beyond to get him back to form and actually to try to improve my son's strength prior to injury. I cannot recommend him enough- especially for baseball players and specifically for throwing, in our case. Even though the drive was pretty far for our West Seattle roots- it was worth it and the boy never complained about having to go early mornings. When we "graduated" from treatment - my son said he's actually going to miss his therapy with Jordan and regarded him as an extra coach. Thanks Jordan and thanks LWPT for hiring such dedicated and capable staff. As for the facility- the front desk staff was very polite and helpful and the recovery area is clean, modern, spacious and has the ability for privacy. I cannot recommend this business and Jordan enough. Hopefully, we'll never have to utilize his services again, but if we do - we know we'll be in good hands. -Knathan Ryan

Fantastic experience: Both my son and I have done PT at Lake Washington PT and our experiences are equally awesome. Everyone, from front desk to providers, are friendly and knowledgeable. I have tried other PT organizations and LWPT is the best. I like their approach and philosophy. I also appreciate that it is a locally owned business. Great organization. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Lake Wash PT provides exceptional care. The Front Desk staff is welcoming and accommodating. My physical therapist, Katie, listens to my concerns and thoroughly explains proper form/technique. In addition, I feel like an active participant in my recovery since she collaborates with me to develop an individualized program. My only regret with this review is that I can’t give it more than 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Jordan is your guy for any shoulder injury. I went to him for a dislocated shoulder and saw drastic improvement within a month. He encourages questions and explains everything he does. He is straight forward and honest with his feedback so if you ask questions and do the home exercises, you will not only improve physically but gain an understanding for your injury and how to prevent it in the future.

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience at LWPT's Kirkland location. The staff was super friendly and accommodating! I was referred to LWPT for a shoulder injury and my PT (Jordan Bork) was awesome. Very knowledgeable and helpful through my entire recovery process. I can truly say I was excited to go in for appointments! I would 10/10 recommend going here if you are in need of physical therapy, and I am forever grateful for the care I received!

Fantastic experience: We saw Jordan for a baseball injury and he is great! The staff are friendly and easy to work with, and helped us get scheduled for all of the appointments we needed. They also answered all of my billing questions. We were happy to find a PT that specialises in throwing injuries in teens.

Fantastic experience: I spent several months doing PT at Houghton following knee replacement surgery. Everyone I came into contact with was so helpful, check-in, billing, scheduling etc. My therapist, Nick, was amazing. He took the time to listen to what I had to say about what was going on, and then tailored the sessions to address issues and concerns...not just following some specific checklist of exercises. As a result, in less than 5 months I have been able to do almost everything I want, including some fairly difficult hikes!

Fantastic experience: Jordan Bork is the therapist who brought life back to my lifeless right arm. I suffered tendon overuse (tendinitis) at the shoulder and elbow from mouse clicking away on computer for eons. Surgery was recommended by the surgeon. Alternatively, the surgeon suggested physical therapy at LWPT in Kirland where Jordan Bork is employed specializing in rehabbing shoulders. I found myself in the right place, at the right time with an expert, exactly what was needed. He told me my injuries were involved. However, he was very confident he could make me better, if I did my part. From my first session with Jordan to my last, he worked on me tirelessly. He was extremely intent on fixing me and he has done just that. You will not ever meet a nicer person; he is as nice as they come. He is an expert therapist. We are both glad we met him, me and my right arm.

Fantastic experience: Katie H is simply the BEST!! So easy going and patient when working with her patients! She is so knowledge and always puts her clients needs and recovery, including safety first. I feel so grateful to have her as my PT. The entire Kirkland staff is simply amazing, so kind, helpful and always accommodating. I’d recommend LWPT to anyone, and I’d especially recommend Katie ;) -Tauna C

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience working witht my therapists. They were able help me get my core strength back and identified the stability I needed to recover. Great, efficient, and clear instructions for work at home.

Fantastic experience: Post ACL reconstruction surgery patient. Coming out of this surgery was likely one of the most humbling experiences which forced me to accept that human bodies are fragile. I was scared and apprehensive to the point of refusing to remove my brace during my first PT appointment. Jordan was the most patient and tactful therapist who took time and tact to explain the recovery process, build trust and relate to my apprehension. Fast forward to today, where my recovery has been stellar and I look forward to every appointment and homework exercises. The experience with LWPT has been nothing but stellar, one step at the time and every step of the way. I just did my first (easy) hike 8 weeks post op and I can only thank Jordan and Manny for that. You guys ROCK!

Fantastic experience: I wouldn't want to receive care anywhere else. Mandie Majerus is the best! I have been working with her for the last 9 months to recover from ACL surgery. I am a passionate skier and Mandie developed my recovery program around that. She provided skiing specific exercises and got me back on skis faster than I expected. If you are a skier and need a physical therapist, ask for Mandie! The other staff members are also friendly and knowledgeable. I have been provided with excellent care.

Fantastic experience: Lake Washington PT is WONDERFUL! I went to the Kirkland location to see Jordan after having a relatively extensive shoulder surgery. Personally, my main attraction to him was his background with baseball athletes. I needed someone with experience with my particular wants and needs to return to competitive sports. I received one on one appointments, which I cannot stress how important that is with how most PT’s are being run these days. Jordan communicated not only professionally and clearly but, positively. He also listened to everything I had to say about my experiences during this process which we then discussed together and then used to tailor my recovery program to what I needed. I couldn’t be happier with my recovery journey. EVERYONE (including their very well behaved and adorable K9 companions) at LWPT Kirkland are incredible! They are an amazing group that welcomes you with a smile and are there for whatever you need. Much appreciated!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! Kerri is the best! She is professional and so easy to work with! With her help I fully recovered from my tennis elbow. She is so considerate, and proactively adjusted my treatment based on the progress. I have recommended LWPT to my friends.

Fantastic experience: LWPT is one of the best clinics in the area. I trust every amazing PT they have on their team at all their locations. For my own recovery from a rugged backcountry injury I have only been impressed getting to work with the lovely Kerri Smith at Kirkland - DT clinic. She is always attentive, caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable; customizing my visits to where I am at on my recovery and healing journey. So grateful to have LWPT in our backyard and their knowledge and expertise. The staff, students, and front desk are all wonderful too! Highest recc'ds.

Fantastic experience: I had a really great experience here with Jordan Bork. I had both hip and back issues and Jordan worked with me extensively to address. One of the things I really liked about him was how he was focused on the whole body and the interconnections between the different muscle groups. I have a science background so also appreciated how he explained the why and the what of the PT work and always took time to recap at the end - explaining the root cause and how the exercises would address the issue. I can't say enough good things about Jordan or Lake Washington PT! Very professional, great patient interaction, very knowledgeable. Wonderful people
