Bull City Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT and Mary are the best! They helped me get back to my sport both physically and mentally after injury, and were always friendly and supportive along the way.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Bull City PT and would definitely recommend them! Jacob helped me after a neck injury to both assist with healing and to give me the tools needed to strengthen weak areas. It has been almost 2 months since my final appointment and whenever I’ve had stiffness onset I’ve been able to use the stretches and exercises I learned to prevent escalation of symptoms. Furthermore, the office culture (I was at the Durham office) on the whole is very positive, making it enjoyable to go to the appointments. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of having Jacob as my physical therapist after partially tearing my ACL. He was a great help in my rehab process and after 3-4 months of twice a week sessions, I no longer feel pain in my knee. Jacob is also very friendly and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I had very painful tennis elbow - not from playing tennis but from carrying too many bags at once (weak grip I guess), and it got to the point that I couldn’t hold my pickleball racket. I had a session with Dr. Mary which included massage and dry needling. She sent me home with a treatment program (App assisted to show me how to do the exercises properly) and instructed me to stick with it. After a few weeks my grip is strong and pain-free and I’m back in action. Thanks BCPT and Dr. Mary! 5/5 stars, will use again.

Fantastic experience: So my encounter with Bull City Physical Therapy is a little unusual. They were actually at the local rock climbing gym offering quick 10-15 min advice and the quick tip they gave me saved me from developing carpal tunnel this past summer! Bull City Physical Therapy is amazing, hands down. I had a really wonderful brief interaction with one of their therapists, Jacob, and he gave me super simple but effective exercises. He broke it down and taught me how each of them worked and how it helps with the nerve that was causing me severe symptoms for my carpal tunnel. My issue was so bad my entire right arm was numbed the majority of the day at that point. Jacob told me that these weren't permanent and really assured me it'll subside when I was so worried. Within 2 months of consistently working on the exercises he gave, I went from having numbing every moment to nothing. I even forgot that this was an issue earlier this past summer! I want to give a huge shoutout to Bull City Physical Therapy, and especially to Jacob, for really making a huge difference for me, even through a brief "visit." I will definitely be back if I need anything. They're absolutely super friendly and will be there for anyone who needs help.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Bull City PT! I worked with Colten, the owner, for several months to rehab my back and I always felt better, physically, every time that I left the office. Colten gave me realistic stretches and exercises that I could do on my own and also worked with me to ensure that I had the right posture as I prepared to start lifting heavier weights again. The staff here are kind, patient, and thorough, and is a great place to get help for rehabbing after injuries.

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT has attentive staff, a comprehensive assessment process, and provides a commitment to individualized care plans. Jacob also focused on educating me about my recovery, which made a significant difference in my rehabilitation experience.

Fantastic experience: I would definitely recommend Mary Corcoran at Bull City Physical Therapy if you are an athlete recovering from surgery. She is very knowledgeable, personable and doesn't keep you coming to PT sessions any longer than you need! I had shoulder surgery in December and was back playing tennis in April! She focused on not only getting mobility back in my shoulder, but building strength in my back (to support my shoulder), as well. Without a doubt, I would recommend Mary and the team at Bull City Physical Therapy!

Fantastic experience: I've had consistently excellent experiences at Bull City Physical Therapy. They have been helping me recover from a significant wreck-related injury and surgery, and I've been very pleased with the amount of progress I've been able to make with their guidance. I've had the opportunity to work with several of the PTs there, they have all been great. I consistently recommend Bull City Physical Therapy when I meet someone who is looking for a PT or who is already working with a PT but is not happy with how things are going. Give them a try!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Jacob and Bull City Physical Therapy! I came to Jacob with lower back issues lingering from a recent back surgery. I couldn’t walk much of a distance, couldn’t sit even down for longer than 10 minutes at a time, overall very limited mobility. After his care all of my problems subsided! His expertise and method of teaching the exercises and stretches is excellent and easy to understand.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely had the best experience here! I worked with Mary for about 6 months, a few months pre-op and a few months post-op and I can’t believe I am already back to my old self. They are a very collaborative, caring team and work together to make sure every patient gets the absolute best care. They make sure you have the knowledge to keep up PT at home and even have an app where you can look at the exercises if you forget . I have a pretty rare hip condition and ended up having a very uncommon surgery (I think I was the first one they’ve ever had) but Mary worked hard to make sure she knew how to help me!!! I also wanted to mention how helpful they were with my deciding whether or not to get the surgery in the first place (huge surgery, I was really scared). The compassion and genuine care was evident. So much so, even though I moved over an hour away for the surgery, I made sure to only go back to Mary because of how amazing she is. I honestly looked forward to every single time and I am sad I am now back to normal bc I loved going so much this team was a huge part of my life for many months and I’ll never forget the kindness, expertise, and compassion I was shown here. Amazing team, I would recommend them to any and everyone!

Fantastic experience: Superb practice that works with you patiently and effectively, never giving the sense they are overselling sessions or taking shortcuts. I successfully rehabbed stress fractures in my knees and am now able to run at full capacity. I cannot recommend the Bull City team enough!

Fantastic experience: If I could choose 10 stars I would! I got a next day appt when I inquired about services! This I was my first time going to PT, Spencer was so kind and helpful- provided tons of anatomy info, was motivating and professional. I am on a great path to recovery now, and I’m a little sad to stop going to PT! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Bull City PT! The staff is friendly and welcoming. I worked with Mary to address pain in my neck and shoulders. She was personable, adjusted each session based on the pain I was feeling, and took the time to explain the purpose of each technique she used. She also has great show recommendations!! I would recommend Mary and Bull City PT to anyone in the area.

Fantastic experience: I had the absolute privilege of having Treazure as my PT, and it was magical. Not only did Treazure do an amazing job fixing a 12 year old should issue that I had, but she made the hour spent each week enjoyable, was friendly, kind, and enthusiastic about her job. Ya'll, go see Treazure. You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Spencer Cole is a fantastic, extremely knowledgeable Sports Med Physical Therapist. His manual therapy skills are superior which helped with my trap / shoulder pain. I highly recommend Dr. Cole if you are looking for a Physical Therapist in Durham.

Fantastic experience: Best referral I’ve ever gotten! I came in to get some PT for a back injury. Couldn’t ask for a better location and service. Special Thank you to Mary Corcoran. Gotta give Mary her flowers! Worked wonders on my back. Been pain free for months now. I feel better overall! Another important note, I feel prepared. something Mary took her time to teach and insure I felt comfortable being able to manage symptoms on my own outside of the office. Which I really appreciate! The entire office is great from top to bottom, from the time you enter till the time leave. You never feel like you’re going to a typical doctor office. You feel invited and motivated to get your body back on track!. Great customer service! Great professionalism, great people!

Fantastic experience: Went to Bull City for rehab after having my pelvis rebuilt following a bike accident. Dylan and the team got me back to walking, rebuilt my stamina, and rebuilt my strength. My doctors were shocked at how quickly I progressed, and my strength and stamina today are better than where they were pre-accident. The bull city team is fantastic, they are focused on helping you achieve your strength goals, their use of weights is ideal for anyone who is pursuing athletic goals, etc. Couldn’t recommend them more

Fantastic experience: This place has helped me so much I appreciate them

Fantastic experience: Great PT. Excellent care. Push you to improve. Wonderful atmosphere/vibe. Positive. Caring. Thorough. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Best PT in the Triangle! Came in 4 months ago for an overuse injury in my ankle after running my first half-marathon. Dr. Cole was personable, professional, and incredibly supportive. He made sure I understood exactly what we were doing and why. Everyone working at the front desk was an absolute pleasure too. Today I graduated and although I’m excited to get back to running pain-free I’m almost sad because I’ll miss this place! Can’t recommend it enough!

Fantastic experience: Bull City Physical Therapy gave me excellent service and my experience was great! The staff was welcoming and friendly... Timothy was pleasant and took the time to explain all the exercises.

Fantastic experience: I had the opportunity to work with both Colten and Spencer to help resolve a hip pain issue. Both were great to work with, had plenty of ideas to help figure out what was causing the problem and what I could try to cure it. Unfortunately, after about 5 months between the two of them, I'm still having the pain. HOWEVER, this is NOT a reflection on them. Sometimes PT just isn't going to cure some conditions. There are going to be cases (like mine) where no PT is going to fix the problem. After a few months of working with Colten in the beginning, I decided to go to an orthopedic doc who took x-rays and said I had hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis (but couldn't explain why I only had pain with very specific movements). I continued PT with Colten, then switched to Spencer (since he has special training in PT related to orthopedics). I think for my case, while PT WILL help strengthen the hip muscles, I may have to do something more aggressive, such as a shot deep in the hip. Right now, I'm still doing PT on my own and have started a very low dose of Meloxicam that the ortho doc prescribed. I'm hoping between this anti-inflammatory and continued PT that I'll get better, but only time will tell. I highly recommend both Colten and Spencer. They're very thorough in their approach and are always thinking about what else to try when one exercise (or set of exercises) doesn't seem to be working to fix the problem. Just keep in mind that there's a chance that PT alone won't fix some problems.

Fantastic experience: I tore my Achilles tendon weeks before I moved to Durham and was lucky to find Bull City Physical Therapy to assist with my recovery. They've provided excellent customer service for the past 6 months, from the front desk to the PT staff (special shoutout to Dr. Spencer Cole). I have consistently felt ahead of schedule in my recovery, in large part due to the quality of support at Bull City PT. If you live in the Triangle and are unfortunate enough to suffer an injury, these folks will have you covered.

Fantastic experience: I worked with Spencer for 4 months. I came in with 10/10 shoulder pain. He diagnosed the source of my pain and worked on building strength and flexibility. I just had my last appointment and I am pain free. I have a platform of exercises and knowledge now moving forward to prevent this from happening again. Spencer is warm, professional, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend working with him!

Fantastic experience: When I first came to Bull City, about a year ago, my therapist, Tim O'Connor, assessed my symptoms related to my diagnosis of classic spinal stenosis (pinched nerves in my lower back). He proceeded to structure a routine of stretching and exercises we would engage in twice a week, with a goal of strengthening my core muscles and improving my balance. When we started the program, Tim would tell me the purpose of each function and their goal. In addition, he provided an app for each to be completed at home. I've been rewarded with less pain, more stamina, and better balance, plus the reward of positive mental therapy each visit.

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT has been an incredible experience! I feel heard and everyone is so kind. I have made great progress on my chronic pain thanks to BCPT!

Fantastic experience: Hands down, the easiest 5 star review I’ve ever written. Best PT clinic ever. Colten is extremely thorough, compassionate, and detailed in his care throughout my injuries. He’s validated me throughout and made adjustments all while explaining and maintaining a high standard of care. Giselle is delightful and always is thoughtful in scheduling to accommodate my difficult schedule. It’s no surprise to see Bull City PT’s accolades stack up—everyone there is wonderful.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a fantastic physical therapist, check out Bull City PT! Spencer Cole is one of the nicest and most helpful PTs you will meet. He and the staff made my first PT experience easy and I am thankful for the confidence they gave me for using my knee/hips. Hands down the best of the triangle!

Fantastic experience: This is the best PT in Durham! They've been extremely hands on through multiple injuries I've had, are the most patient staff I've ever met, and are truly invested in your recovery and goals. Colten is a top notch provider and the location can't be beat right downtown with free easy parking. Can't recommend this team enough.

Fantastic experience: I play rugby and have a job that keeps me on my feet and somewhat active. I’ve broken things, overused muscles, weakened others, have musculoskeletal imbalances and whatnot. Colten had me feeling better during my first appointment. They’re thorough and assess you so they know where is the problem and why then he showed me movements and exercises to do to correct things and my back, hips, neck, and shoulders feel so released and like they’re working better than just 30 minutes ago. They give you work outs in an app so you can manage your own exercises at home. Definitely recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Very professional

Fantastic experience: Very pleasant and patient therapists. Help you understand your injuries and educate through the pain. Not intimidating enviornment.

Fantastic experience: Friendly, accommodating, supportive and very responsive staff. They were flexible on a payment issue I created as well. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I tore my ACL a year ago and was struggling to get back into high level sports before switching to Bull City PT. Working with Dillon got me back onto the field at full strength so much faster than I had anticipated.

Fantastic experience: I had the distinct pleasure of working with Tim over 6 months. Every time I came in, he clearly communicated what we were working on, what I needed to do, and was careful to ensure that I was pushing myself without enduring the bad kind of pain. Considering I pick up heavy objects as a hobby, I’m assuming I’ll probably injure myself again and I will hunt Tim down across the face of the earth to get me back in shape.

Fantastic experience: Professional, encouraging, and overall wonderful experience! My back and hips have healed naturally, and I have the skills I need to take care of them now! So thankful for an awesome PT experience! I will definitely be back if the need is there!

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but high praise for Bull City PT - especially Dr. Tim O'Connor and Stacy - together they guided me quickly back to full functionality, addressing both pain and strength. I would trust them to help any of my family and friends and would definitely return myself. In addition to their clinical help, the entire staff was friendly and fun - and helped with all the practical aspects, like figuring out my insurance coverage. Try them - you won't regret it!!!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing experience with Colten at Bull City PT. He did an excellent job of educating me about what was going on with my injury as well as what he was prescribing to address it. He took a really balanced approach to making sure I wasn’t putting myself at too much risk of injury while still helping me get back to my regular activity quickly. It was clear that his focus was on getting me healed up as quickly as possible and preparing me for the future when I’m no longer going to PT. Really can’t recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: I've been to this location twice in as many years, for different issues. They are super responsive and knowledgable, and they use an online platform that makes keeping track of your therapy exercises easy. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great place with friendly and helpful staff. A lot of their treatment areas are out in the open, which might not feel comfortable for a lot of people, but staff told me you can let them know when you make your appointment if you would prefer to see your PT in a private room (if doing exercises/talking about your body in a room full of strangers isn't your thing).

Fantastic experience: I suffered a significant shoulder separation around 10 years ago. During training, I aggravated the same shoulder enough to keep me from climbing completely. I spent a little over a month trying to recover on my own with little to no progress. I finally decided to try PT at Bull City. Within around 5 weeks of PT, Dylan had me back to climbing as hard as I was pre-injury with no pain. I will 100% be back to Bull City PT in the future if needed and will recommend them to everyone I climb with at TRC.

Fantastic experience: Colten at Bull City PT has been amazing! I worked with him over about 4 months to get back to running without pain. I have worked with PTs elsewhere in the past, and he by far has been the best at explaining everything, checking in about how I'm doing, leaving time to answer all my questions, and tailoring his plan to exactly where I'm at and what my goals are. He was very knowledgeable, reassuring, and easy to work with throughout the whole process. He was also super personable and made the sessions fun. I am so grateful to be back to running, and I can't recommend this place enough!!

Fantastic experience: Excellent PTs, friendly staff, clean space/equipment. I have had the pleasure of working mostly with Dr. Tim O'Connor, but have been impressed by all the staff at Bull City PT for their knowledge, kindness, and professionalism. With Dr. Tim specifically, I have always felt like my concerns were listened to and addressed—that an individualized treatment session was developed specifically for me and my current issues. As a result, I have made so much progress since my first session, and have nothing but gratitude for Dr. Tim's skill, patience, and efforts. If you're in the area, I can confidently recommend seeking care at Bull City PT!

Fantastic experience: I’m a woman of a certain age and I don’t heal quickly as I used to. Four months after spraining my ankle I was starting to get concerned that it would never heal. Thanks to Tim, my ankle is stronger than ever! Loved the empathy and professionalism of this group!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience working with Dylan for several months on lower back (and neck) pain. I had chronic pain in my lower back for 3 years and Dylan was able to pinpoint the problem and develop a plan to address it. My pain improved and I have not had a significant flare up since I started PT last year. I have since also recommended a friend to Bull city physical therapy and they are also very happy with their experience! I also appreciated that it was very easy to schedule my first appointment online and I did not need a referral.

Fantastic experience: My experience at Bull City PT was great. The staff was very nice and it was always a pleasant experience going in for a session. I highly recommend Bull City PT if you're looking for personable and professional care. I went in not knowing how well I would be able to recover but with the help of Dylan and Mary - I left feeling a lot better and with the knowledge needed to continue to take care of my body. Huge thanks to Mary for the bulk of my sessions and all the information you provided me. Without you, I am not sure where I would be at physically and mentally! Best of luck to you moving forward!

Fantastic experience: I went to Bull City PT back in July for knee pain I had experienced for 5+ years. They took me immediately and without any doctor referral. Within 5 months of consistently working with Mary and Tim, I am pain free and have learned many exercises to continue strengthening the targeted muscle groups we worked on in each session. Both therapists were friendly, professional, and cared deeply about my recovery. I highly recommend going here!

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT was wonderful in every way. The staff are extremely friendly+professional, and the space is well organized and clean. Tim was a great listener, making sure to tailor and adapt the program as needed to fit my lifestyle. Would highly recommend to anyone

Fantastic experience: We have been going to Tim for several weeks now and he has been very knowledgeable and encouraging! He is great at keeping the therapy fun, well paced, and positive! The whole office is very friendly and we are very thankful to have found them!

Fantastic experience: Colten and Dylan are excellent. Highly recommend Bull City PT.

Fantastic experience: Great staff. Was dealing with new headaches from chronic neck pain and they helped me progress to no longer dealing with any headaches.

Fantastic experience: Very helpful and convenient!

Fantastic experience: Truly remarkable experience. Dr. Tim O’Connor is extremely knowledgeable, skill and just an all-round likable PT. Great brand and team. Pretty sure they’re going to be big in our region. Oh, and my shoulder feels great!!

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Dylan was thoughtful, collaborative, and adapted to my pace. I left with greater strength and reduced pain, and a toolkit of stretches and exercises.

Fantastic experience: Tim was very helpful in fixing my back problems. I am now able to run and lift again! I highly recommend Tim and Bull City Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: The staff has catered to my unique injuries in a way I have not experienced. Due to my military background, I have endured many injuries and have recovered back to being able to enable special operations community.

Fantastic experience: Good results here. Was rehabbing from a fracture, and I got personal attention, good and workable advice, and a fun time with a friendly staff. I recommend.

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed working with Dr. Tim and Colten. I'm looking forward to coming back in the future whenever I need it! I'd like to thank the staff of Bull City PT for having patience throughout treatment working with me.

Fantastic experience: The team at Bull City are great to work with. Dylan is very considerate and makes the healing process a partnership, working with you to achieve your goals. Giselle is great at the front and always works with you to get appointments that fit with your schedule. Would definitely use their services again in the future!

Fantastic experience: Colten is amazing! I do not know of PT who is just as personable as he is knowledgeable about physical therapy. I was in chronic pain for 2 years and went to 2 PTs prior to Colten for the same issue. Colten encouraged and incorporated my feedback into every session. I followed his workouts and guidance and now I am pain free. Everything he said made sense. He listened and helped me go at my pace and I am forever grateful.

Fantastic experience: Over the years I have received physical therapy from several different sites and Bull City is truly one of the best. Tim, my physical therapist, is very competent and developed an individualized plan for my chronic shoulder and neck pain. My exercises were adjusted to meet my ability and goals. And all staff at Bull City PT are friendly and warm. I rarely give anything a 5 on a scale of 1-5 but Bull City PT is tops in my book!

Fantastic experience: GO HERE. I saw Colten for over 6 months for a nasty patellar tendinitis that would not respond to treatment from Duke or EmergeOrtho. In the beginning, I could not bend down into a simple squat and even sitting in low chairs gave me pain. Colten gave me a very detailed, and easy-to-perform physical therapy regimen, and I received dry-needling, cupping, and soft tissue massage at most of my visits. Colten and his team are friendly, professional, responsive, and extremely knowledgable. I received thorough explanations for all of my questions and learned so much about my body in the process. I went from fearing I'd never squat again to doing 225 for reps and sprinting for a minute at a time. Give them a shot, you won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: Tim and the team are wonderful at what they do! My injury has healed, and Tim gave me sustainable practices to keep up going forward too, as I have since moved out of NC. The office is also really welcoming and looks great after its recent renovation. Thanks, BCPT!

Fantastic experience: I can’t speak highly enough of this place. Getting over any injury is a physical and emotional process, and the team at Bull City PT understands that so well. From the scheduling (immediate and seamless) to the consultation visit (I felt heard and immediately supported) to my follow-up visits (all awesome), the team has flawlessly supported me in my recovery. Every detail of every interaction with them has been perfect. Plus, they took my insurance! I’m noticing quick improvements from my injury and I always leave feeling so happy and inspired. Thank you, Bull City Physical Therapy!

Fantastic experience: Had an injured bicep from weight lifting and elbow pain from work (mouse clicking!). Dealt with both for years and was only able to go to the gym for 4-8 weeks before pain would stop me. Finally, following other recommendations I made an appointment w/ Bull City and while the diagnosis of the elbow conflicted with what a doctor had previously told me I decided to just go with it and trust them. Turns out they had a much better understanding than previous medical professionals I'd seen. Through treatment and the exercises they gave me to do, which were different than doctors recommendations in the past, I actually saw steady improvement. There were setbacks here and there as I pushed myself in the gym but their physical therapists guided me on "good pain" vs "bad pain" and we adjusted as we went. Now through weeks of sessions with the team at Bull City PT I'm on month 10 of lifting and have put on 20+ pounds of mostly muscle. I didn't think this was possible without surgery. Highly recommend anyone in pain or being held back by an injury at least get a consultation - could change everything.

Fantastic experience: Dylan was excellent to work with. He did a great job at listening to what was causing me issues, looking at history and lifestyle as root causes, and making a plan for solutions. We worked on both short and long term solutions and he always checked in with me to make sure I was understanding, agreeing to, and ok with the advice he gave me. I came to Dylan needing assistance with recovery from a bad ankle break and issues with my lower back due to sitting a lot for work. I would definitely recommend Bull City Physical Therapy to anyone experiencing pain or discomfort and needing a good PT. My experience was all around a great experience- front desk was friendly and welcoming, Dylan was kind and extremely knowledgable, facilities are clean and easy to access, and communication was excellent. I have no negative feedback whatsoever!

Fantastic experience: Went to Bull City for achilles tendonitis after trying for several months to fix it myself. I should have gone in much sooner! Dylan was super helpful, he made easy to follow exercise plans, and identified some mobility issues that explained a lot of issues I had been having. What I appreciated the most was that he was realistic on what could and could not be fixed easily, and frequently cited what current research showed was most effective (while not promising miracle cures). Definitely recommend Bull City Physical Therapy!

Fantastic experience: Went to Bull City PT for a pulled hamstring injury. This occurred a few weeks before a race I was planning to run. Dylan was excellent on helping me understand the injury and how to rehab/build strength to be ready for the race and prevent injuries in the long-term. Overall I had a great experience and feel stronger/faster because of it!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Bull City PT and Colten - I’d suggest the practice to everyone. Colten’s thoughtfulness and extensive knowledge made me feel like I was in good hands throughout the process. We worked together to co-develop a comprehensive recovery plan to reach my end goals while taking into account my schedule. If I ever need PT again (with Colten’s help, hopefully I don’t), I’d go to Bull City PT without a second thought.

Fantastic experience: I had a lower back injury, and the pain didn’t get better. My doctor than told me about bull city physical therapy and it was great experience. The gentleman that help me with my pain was Dylan. He is a great instructor and really help me feel 10x better. I would highly recommend visiting them, they are great people who really care about making there patients feel better

Fantastic experience: I started going to Bull City PT back in May due to what I thought was a knee injury from working out. After meeting with Colton, I was glad to be hear it wasn’t an injury but excessive tightness in the quad an hip. After a couple months of treatment, dry needling and exercises, I feel as if I never had an issue and I’m back in the gym regularly. I highly recommend reaching out if your having any issues!

Fantastic experience: After struggling for 3 years to find a solution to continuous knee and shoulder pain from sports injuries, Dylan and Colten were the ones to help me finally solve it. The PTs here place an emphasis on giving you routines that are both effective and time efficient - no huge lists of exercises that I often struggled to stick with in the past. They also go to great lengths to make sure you understand why what you are doing is helping your specific problem, which greatly increased my motivation to work them on my own time. I worked with Dylan in particular after onboarding with Colten - Dylan really knows his stuff, especially in the realm of resistance training. We made frequent use of the in-clinic squat rack to get me back into shape, which I really appreciated for helping me transition back into gym workouts. One of the big issues I struggled with was understanding whether or not I was having pain that was ignorable, or making my injury worse - something I suspect many others with chronic pain go through. Having Dylan there to validate that my form was correct and that I wasn't overdoing anything was vital to me pushing through the injuries. Now, after only a few short months (very quick time frame if you've ever experienced a chronic injury) I am back to full capacity running, swimming, biking, rock climbing, and even games of basketball. Thanks Bull City PT!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Bull City PT with Colten! Dr. Colten and Bull City PT are amazing for many reasons such as being respectful, clear, and easy to work with, but are exceptionally amazing because they helped me cross my first marathon finish line while staying healthy. Colten is genuine and I think he truly wants to do right by his clients. If you are looking for a sign to go to PT, this is it! Go to PT and go here.

Fantastic experience: Colten worked with me to create an individual exercise program to achieve my running goals. His assessment was thorough and he explained the rationale for the treatments and exercises he provided. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their activity level.

Fantastic experience: Colten is fantastic. I had an overuse injury involving my knee and he had me up and running (literally) in just a few weeks. My path to recovery felt very collaborative and I always felt that my thoughts and concerns were being heard and sincerely addressed. I really can’t recommend this place enough.

Fantastic experience: Bull City Physical Therapy is the best Physical Therapy Clinic I have ever visited. Colten pays special attention to every detail and his plan of care is always patient centered. I had been suffering from knee pain for a year and Colten slowly and safely got me back to full strength. Go see Colten at Bull City Physical Therapy- you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: I came to Bull City Physical Therapy after seeking a second opinion with my physical therapy. I had gone to another clinic in town and had received the dismaying news that certain activities would no longer be available to me due to my ankle injury. As I am relatively young, I was horrified that this was the recommendation I was receiving so I looked for a new doctor to help me get back to 100%. I found Colten and Bull City through Google reviews and they all were overwhelmingly positive. I decided to give it a try and am so thankful that I did. Colten is an awesome physical therapist and it's clear he has deep knowledge of the discipline. He gives adaptable and targeted exercises to help get you better each time and has very flexible scheduling to allow for your continued progression. He makes physical therapy managable too because he builds excellent rappaport immediately to make you feel at ease while he's putting you through the paces. Before Bull City, I was content to just deal with any injuries with exercises from Mayo Clinic untili I was better, but now since I so believe in its work, I come to Bull City with any lingering injury over a week because I trust he'll be able to help me work through it. Thank you, Colten!

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT redeemed my faith in PT! As someone who has pain stemming from a PT injury, I was not interested in going back to physical therapy. But because of years of pain, my physician told me I had to. Thankfully, I found Bully City Physical Therapy. Colten has made sure I felt safe no matter what exercise he gives me. Not only have I made so much progress over the last couple months, Bull City PT makes sessions convenient and fun. I highly, highly recommend Colten and Bull City PT!

Fantastic experience: As a former athlete that played through injuries to stay on the field as much as possible I seemingly neglected to address minor injuries. As a result some of those minor injuries have caused me a lot of pain and discomfort later in my life as I've tried to remain physically active at an advanced level. One such injury was a recurring hamstring issue that I've dealt with for the last 10 years. I scheduled an appointment with Colten at Bull City Physical Therapy to see how to resolve the problem. After an initial assessment Colten devised a plan of action, advised a realistic timetable for recovery and prescribed the necessary treatment that would help me progress towards healing. Needless to say within several months of the initial assessment my hamstring is better than it has ever been within the last ten years and I'm fully confident participating in the physical fitness hobbies I'm a part of. In addition to the professional knowledge Colten possesses with regard to injury prevention and treatment, he's an extremely personable individual. The relatable conversation makes the sessions a joy to be a part of. I highly recommend! Regards, Calvin T. Williams Jr, M.A.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Bull City Physical Therapy. My hip symptoms were very cryptic and did not fit neatly into a standard diagnosis, but Dylan worked creatively to help identify two possible diagnoses and developed a plan of care that would help address my hip pain under either diagnosis. After a few months of treatment, I'm pain-free and able to return to normal physical activity.

Fantastic experience: The team at Bull City are great to work with. Dylan is very considerate and makes the healing process a partnership, working with you to achieve your goals. Giselle is great at the front and always works with you to get appointments that fit with your schedule. Would definitely use their services again in the future!

Fantastic experience: I came to Bull City PT with back pain from working from home for 2+ years, and Dylan was able to teach me a lot about what was happening and how to prevent further pain. I'm happy to report I'm no longer in pain and feel good abut keeping it that way! The staff is very friendly and professional, and I've been recommending this place to my friends/family.

Fantastic experience: I see Tim at Bull City Physical Therapy, and he is the absolute best! I'm training for a half marathon and was having lower back pain, but after working with Tim for the past month, I feel incredible. Not only is my pain gone, but I feel stronger and more stable while running. I highly recommend Tim and Bull City PT overall.

Fantastic experience: A+ all around! Everyone is incredibly friendly. Scheduling was easy and flexible. Dylan got my runner's knees back in good shape with tailored exercises that progressed as my knees improved. I went from having significant pain climbing stairs to running, biking, and exercising how I want to again! I saw Colton a few times too, who was also great! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Tim a few weeks now rehabbing my knee from tendentious. His care and treatment plan is personalized to my specific running goals and I truly feel listened to as a patient. He takes the time to explain to me why I need to make certain muscles stronger and how these will function to ultimately get me back out running! I especially love the implementation of massage tools (muscle scraper and gun!) and options to receive dry needling. The rest of the staff at Bull City has been very warm and friendly, even in passing. I highly recommend coming here if you are looking to promote and restore your physical health!! Go see Tim!

Fantastic experience: Colten is fantastic! He is so knowledgeable and often is able to pinpoint exactly what I’m experiencing. He takes the time to really listen to you and not just make assumptions about what could be going on. I appreciate his client based care.

Fantastic experience: Went there for chronicle neck and shoulder pains and has had tremendous improvement. Would definitely recommend Bull city for any of your PT needs! Colten is super knowledgeable and just really nice to work with.

Fantastic experience: Colten was amazing in helping me recover from a dislocated shoulder. He was always available for questions. I had a lot of muscle tightness from compensating muscles and he was a magician in loosening those muscles to aid in my recovery. Thanks so much, Colten. A+++

Fantastic experience: I am so happy I found Bull City Physical Therapy! Dr. Sullivan did such a fantastic job getting me back to the activities I love. My recovery process felt like a shared experience, which I found to be unique to this facility.

Fantastic experience: Colten was great to work with throughout my rehab process. Not only were our in person sessions very helpful, but Colten also checked in with me between sessions to see how my exercises/stretches were going and to make any modifications necessary based on my feedback.

Fantastic experience: Well let me just put it this way - when I started going to work with Colten I could not run. I am now back to running a few times a week - exactly what I wanted. He helped me address the pain I had in my knee, explained the root cause of the pain, and taught me exercises and stretches to both limit and address future pain. Nothing invasive and no recommendation of surgery - just seeing my limits, listening to me, and helping me figure it out. It's exactly what I wanted, and certainly what I needed. I will 100% return to Colten for whatever ailments I have. For background on me as I imagine it's helpful for these reviews: 33yrs, Male, 6'3", 200lb. Played sports competitively through college.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic care!! Dr. Sullivan made room for me the very next day when I called with some knee tightness that was inhibiting my daily training. He took his time with me and explained what was going on and together made plan of attack to get me back to 100%! He gave my exercises to take home and would even check on me via text throughout the week! Highly recommend BCPT and will continue to use them in the future!

Fantastic experience: Colten is the only PT I would recommend to anyone in the Triangle! I had terrible back pain when I came in to my first appointment - I felt so tired/defeated thinking I was going to have to live with the pain. Colten listened, validated, and treated me with the utmost kindness and respect. He equipped me with knowledge about what was going on with my body and how to treat it to now be PAIN FREE!!! If you’re looking for a PT, look no further.

Fantastic experience: I was battling with Tendinitis and found my way to Bull City Physical Therapy. Colton got me back to doing the things I love. He’s so knowledgeable about the muscles and their functions- I learned so much about using my body properly. He gave me 10 minutes a day of “homework” I did what he told me and after about 4-6 weeks I was back at my normal routine. Colton is a caring and enthusiastic therapist- don’t think twice about making your appointment! So happy with my results!!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Bull City Physical Therapy. Colten is extremely knowledgeable and patient. I received treatment for shoulder pain and after a few weeks of working with Colten, I was able to get back in the gym. If you’re looking for PT who is willing to work as hard as you are, then you need to go see Colten at Bull City PT.

Fantastic experience: Colten is a wonderful PT! My lower back was hurting me for 2 months, and within 2 weeks, I was feeling so much better. The office has a fully equipped gym for any exercise. Colten diagnoses and explains your injury and next steps very clearly. He texted me, even after my rehab was complete, to be sure I was progressing and feeling better. Colten is personable and truly invested in healing your injuries - he even dropped off exercise bands at my house! Very flexible with scheduling as well. He may have been more passionate about healing my back than I was... You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: What really drew me to Bull City Physical Therapy, apart from the across-the-board five star reviews, were Colten’s flexible hours! I never had to stress about getting my physical therapy needs that while also maintaining a full-time job. Colten was warm and friendly, but above all else excellent job. Our sessions included hands-on work with my trouble areas, as well as exercises to address muscle tightness. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get into or continue their physical therapy journey!

Fantastic experience: Bull City PT is absolutely the place to go for physical therapy in Durham. Colten is my favorite PT I've ever worked with (and there have been quite a few, smh). He's kind, thoughtful, knowledgable, and a blast to talk to. He took my activity level and goals in mind while treating me and put together a plan that made sure I got healthy and didn't have any setbacks. He has a great database of exercises to work through, and having a PT who can also do cupping and dry needling is a complete game changer. I couldn't recommend Colten and Bull City PT any more highly!

Fantastic experience: Colten and his practice are awesome and highly recommended. I went in several months ago b/c of long-lasting plantar fasciitis as well as a shoulder injury that seemed resistant to healing. Colten created a plan of action that included some massage and cupping as well as a slate of exercises for me to do at home. I'd thought I knew what would help the plantar fasciitis but his approach was new to me--and really worked. As did the shoulder exercises. I'm utterly grateful b/c I was so sick of being injured and limited. I would most definitely see him again; he's not only super knowledgeable but also extremely cheerful and kind. Seriously! A great experience, and not too expensive either.
