ProActive Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine: Carlsbad

Experiencia fantástica: Went to see Aimee for a nagging tennis elbow injury that was not healing after a year. My Ortho was considering PRP or surgery but suggested PT for 6 weeks first. Aimee is attentive, personable, and tailored her approach to my injury. 6-8 weeks later and I am pain free and avoided an intrusive procedure. Thank you Aimee and the Proactive team!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve enjoyed my experience at proactive! Everyone is so pleasant and helpful! It’s clean and well organized I thank each of you for making a difference in my performance !

Experiencia positiva: Occupational Therapist gets 5 stars but the physical therapists get 1 star especially Bill. He will explain the lein process to you at every appointment whether you want him to or not. Super hard to get appointments in a timely manner and they don't explain anything. It's great if you want self service therapy. Turnover with staff is very high.

Experiencia fantástica: I did a number to my lower back a few months ago, and Carol was a godsend. When I first saw Carol I was barely able to stand straight, let alone continue with my usual activities. Carol was patient and persistent and ultimately helped to get me back to doing what I loved pain free. Thank you, Carol!

Experiencia fantástica: Carol and Mitch are two exceptional physical therapist, they sure do care about their patients and their needs to attain their goals. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: The whole staff is super welcoming, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They listen, they care, they want you to get and feel better. While receiving PT, you are also with friends. They remember you upon your first return visit. I love working with Anton, Sergio, Josh, Taylor, Mitch, and all the rest of the staff. And better you will feel.

Experiencia fantástica: Great people to work with.. I have had great results in the physical therapy of my hip and lower back.. thank u

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience at Pro Active Physical Therapy. They are very professional and got me back to biking and running with out pain.

Experiencia fantástica: Jonathon is wonderful! So caring and personable, with a good sense of humor. His PT skills are exceptional and wants the best outcome for his patient.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone has been very kind and helpful here, and they are doing an excellent job in helping me regain full use of my right arm after a fractured elbow and partially torn tendon. In just 4.5 weeks I went from having perhaps 30-50% function in my arm to 85-90% and I still have a few visits left. I especially want to thank Carol and Enzo whom I have worked with the most, but everyone there is great!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. A great place to go to try and cure what ails you

Experiencia fantástica: A really lovely, friendly experience. Dr Johnathon is so very knowledgeable and patient. I’m feeling so positive about getting my shoulder strong again!

Experiencia fantástica: Five stars all around for ProActive Physical Therapy, but especially for Mr. Bill Kosic! My daughter recently sustained a soccer injury that had us worried about her ability to get back on the field. From the moment we walked into ProActive, we were met with professionalism, care, and an individualized approach that put our minds at ease. Mr. Kosic was exceptional. He took the time to thoroughly understand my daughter's injury, her goals, and any anxieties she had. He explained the rehabilitation process clearly and patiently, ensuring she felt empowered and involved in her recovery. His treatment sessions were not just about exercises; he truly connected with my daughter, making them motivating and enjoyable - a feat for a teenager undergoing rehab! Throughout the process, Mr. Kosic closely monitored her progress, adjusting the plan as needed and celebrating every milestone. His encouragement and expertise went beyond physical therapy; he instilled confidence and a positive mindset that aided her healing tremendously. Thanks to Mr. Kosic's dedication and the supportive environment at ProActive, my daughter's leg is stronger than ever, and she's back on the field scoring goals! We are incredibly grateful for the outstanding care we received and highly recommend ProActive Physical Therapy, especially if you're fortunate enough to be treated by the amazing Mr. Bill Kosic!

Experiencia fantástica: I recently completed a series of physical therapy sessions at ProActive Physical Therapy, specifically with Mr. Bill Kosik, and I am compelled to share my outstanding experience. From start to finish, Mr. Kosik demonstrated exceptional professionalism, empathy, and expertise. After suffering a significant leg injury, I was quite anxious about the rehabilitation process. However, Mr. Kosik's approach was not only therapeutic but also educational. He took the time to explain each exercise, ensuring I understood the purpose and the expected outcomes. His personalized care plan was tailored to my specific needs, and he consistently adjusted the program as I progressed. What stood out the most was Mr. Kosik's genuine commitment to my recovery. He provided constant encouragement and support, making each session something I looked forward to. His knowledge and skills are evident, but it's his ability to connect with patients on a personal level that truly sets him apart. Thanks to Mr. Kosik’s dedication, my recovery was quicker and more complete than I had anticipated. I am now back to my regular activities with a stronger and more resilient leg. I cannot recommend Mr. Kosik and the ProActive Physical Therapy team enough. If you are in need of physical therapy, this is the place to go, and Mr. Kosek is the therapist to see!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing professional team here! They don’t rush…they don’t bog you down with pages of scribbled work…they listen to how you are progressing and offer alternatives…they have a great space and open layout…they all work incredibly well together.

Experiencia fantástica: My shoulder and back pain improved a lot. Thanks Bill and Anthon.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for take care of me

Experiencia fantástica: I’m very happy with my treatment and sessions with Sapna. She is gentle but firm and very knowledgeable with my issue. I trust her care, she’s awesome!

Experiencia positiva: Loved my therapists but they have pretty shady business practices. They held onto 180.00 for two years. I called and called over a 24 months period trying to get it straightened out and get refunded, only to find out I no longer have a balance. There was no correspondence, no true explanation other than “ it’s unfortunate” nobody communicated with you. Such shady business practices and I have no recourse after 2 years. Lame.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend. Aimee is an awesome hand therapist who relieved my hand problems and gave me exercises. She has a fantastic personality and is very professional - if I could give her 10 stars- I would.

Experiencia fantástica: ProActive took such great care of my daughter and I. We were in a crazy car accident and in such a rough place when we walked in. Today was our last day of PT & let me tell you - I’m a different person walking out of here than I walked in!! Felt so cared for the entire time!! Best staff ever!! Dr. Bill, Anton, Chris, Hanson, Angelica, and so many more. This is literally the best place to ever go for PT!!

Experiencia fantástica: ProActive PT in Carlsbad was a fantastic experience. I had bilateral knee replacements in November and with the help of Bill, Anton and Carol, I’ve made it back to playing pickleball 4-5 days a week. The entire staff is professional and caring. They listen to your needs and push you to obtain your goals. I would highly recommend to everyone needing PT.

Experiencia fantástica: LOVE PROACTIVE IN CARLSBAD CA! Highly capable, knowledgeable, & caring staff that help me heal quickly.

Experiencia fantástica: This is my third series of treatments with ProActive Physical Therapy, the others having taken place in late 2020 and late 2022. Bill Kosik heads a team of competent, caring and professional individuals, each of whom works to assure productive and enjoyable sessions for their patients, with a little humor thrown in for good measure. I cannot laud their praises enough! Perhaps someday I'll write a song about how great they are... In the meantime, I give ProActive Physical Therapy my highest recommendation. There is simply no reason to seek treatment of this nature anywhere else!

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly, helpful. I'm progressing and confident in what the therapist are doing. I work with Bill and Anton. The PT assistance team is great and helpful as well.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve gone to ProActive PT in Carlsbad for two separate issues and they have always given the best of care. The staff are caring and attentive and they’ve helped me so much. I especially like going during less busy hours when I feel like I can even take a quick nap during Stim and icing while I relax!

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely loved Pro Active Physical Therapy! Ella has already helped my knee get stronger.

Experiencia fantástica: Great Aquatic therapy and excellent staff.

Experiencia fantástica: It’s always a pleasure to be surrounded by polite & motivated people.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome staff, very professional. Very intelligent and helpful! Erin's the BEST!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I love the way they teach you, patient good people so friendly and very nice and sweet.

Experiencia fantástica: My left shoulder was "shredded" to quote the surgeon and I did not realize how long it would take to just to get back to doing normal everyday things let alone back to my normal workout routine. I had a torn labrum, 3 partial tears in rotator cuff muscles (one needed to be repaired surgically) tendonitis and "fluid" on the shoulder. Three weeks or so after my surgery I was written a Rx for PT and I choose ProActive Physical Therapy since they were very close to where I live. I was assigned Anton as my Physical Therapist. Anton is a true professional with an unwavering focus on my rehabilitation and overall physical health. We started with the basics and as my shoulder improved he made many adjustments to my regimen including the exercises that I was assigned to do at home. I put in a lot of effort in rehabbing at home and kept an open dialogue with Anton with what I was doing. I tend to overdo it sometimes and backed off based on Anton's guidance. I am glad he was a little firm with me about a few things that I should not have been doing. He took time to explain to me movements to avoid and why along the exercises to focus on and why they helped my shoulder. He listened (and remembered) many things that I have told him over the last 7 months since I started and kept me focused and challenged. I credit my recovery to his work, overall concern, knowledge and recommendations. In a few days I have what may be my last PT visit and my shoulder is the strongest that it has been years. Weight and rep counts are higher than they were 4-5 years ago just as my shoulder first started to show signs of deterioration. I still have a little more to do to get back to 95-99% but I am close. My shoulder has not felt this good in several years. I will continue doing many of the exercises Anton prescribed at home for the next several months because they are definitely helping my shoulder. Thanks to Anton for keeping me in line with his guidance, on track with the assigned home exercises and calm with his patience. Speaking of patience, you cannot find anyone more patient (and kind) than Aleksandr at the front desk. He was very helpful in setting appointments and looking out for my best interests. I was always greeted with a smile and felt like he (and Anton) genuinely cared about my rehabiliation. Early on I was a little grumpy to say the least. I am sure my attitude was not the best especially with a very painful shoulder but it did not phase him at all. He is a very understanding of patient's situations. We need more people like Aleksandr in the world. I highly recommend ProActive Physical Therapy in Carlsbad.

Experiencia fantástica: Patient focussed team of excellent care givers led by Bill who motivates and inspires his team to give their best. Responsive front desk, knowledgeable trainers, they all go the extra mile to make sure you are on your way to healing.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to ProActive sports in Carlsbad for physical therapy after rotator cuff surgery. The staff, from the receptionists to the physical therapists and the exercise technicians we're all fantastic! They always make sure that you are getting the proper treatments. They share information about your progress with each other so that no matter which therapist you see they know what your needs are. This was actually the second time I've been to ProActive the first time was for a different issue. My experience the first time was so good I asked my orthopedic surgeon for a referral to ProActive for my rotator cuff therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: Great therapists work with you to get you back to doing the things you love.

Experiencia fantástica: Great therapists! They worked with me and on me until my stubborn neck injury was rehabilitated.

Experiencia fantástica: ProActive has been a gift for my physical therapy needs and recovery from a rotator cuff repair. This was actually the second ProActive I’ve attended (Carmel Valley) and the second time I’ve gone in for my shoulder (both sides rotator repairs). I can’t speak highly enough about this location and all of the people who make you feel comfortable from the start. Recovery from any type of surgery is a long road, and I was lucky enough to have Anton, Aleks, and the rest of the staff take care of me. I hope I never have to recover from another surgery again, but if I have to cross that bridge, ProActive is my only choice.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a total knee replacement and my first couple of visits, I cried from frustration. But, Heather was so great and made me feel so much better. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Everyone is so nice and helpful! Heather and Anton are awesome and all the assistants are great, Reed,Nick, Alex… (sorry if I misspelled the names or miss anyone) thank you all for your help! :) I hope I don’t need to see you guys again :p but if I do, I will definitely go back :)

Experiencia fantástica: Great people, affordable, truly customized experience. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Knowledge and intuitiveness is key and on top of that Bill has a very pleasant and warm personality! The workout space is clean and comfortable. My husband and I highly recommend it!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at ProActive is kind and knowledgable.The exercises I learned here have improved my life. Thanks so much for all your help!

Experiencia fantástica: Pro Active therapy is great. It is not my first experience in PT, so I feel comfortable providing a review. Richard demonstrates good diagnostic and therapeutic skills. The entire staff is professional and responsive. I like the scheduling process and courteous administrative support. You won't be disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is so friendly and efficient. I would totally recommend Aton. He has magic hands. He knows exactly where and how to massage to relax the right muscles. He also recommends exercises that works on the right areas of pain. Juliana was great in instructing exercise routines. They are a great team!

Experiencia fantástica: ProcActive Physical Theraphy and Sports Medicinal has been top choice for my aches and pain treatment. About 2 weeks ago, I called the Carlsbad office to make appointment to have my shoulder treatment. While I have limited availability and I couldn’t stand the pain any longer, I was glad that they were quick in getting me in. Heather did an assessment test and the treatment gave me tremendous relief in my shoulder pain. With only two treatments, I noticed the increased strength and range of motion to my left shoulder. The entire staffs are courteous, friendly and professional. I recommend ProActive PT without reservations.

Experiencia positiva: UPDATE: I did talk with Proactive today and received a call from one of the owners who told me they will write this off. I had called months ago and thought this was resolved. When we bring our daughter here and are paying the insurance co-pay they tell us to pay, we expect Proactive is a safe place to get Physical Therapy at, so when we get a bill for $650 from Proactive Physical Therapy ...

Experiencia negativa: Have long pondered writing this, but need it off my mind. They started out all "happy folk" that can heal the world, but their pushing my leg beyond what it was up to on the day before Thanksgiving, well it put me in agony all the holiday. Then not a one, even the head Therapist could give the least of an acceptance acknowledgement. Even my Dr said, best you heal without them as you will as a physically active person. My Acupuncturist, Dodie Hemingway, wonderful healer, said "especially for a Type A" stress fractures need rest to heal, then work. She was right, ProActive were WRONG, and did not help in my situation. So, I warn, IMHO they are mostly young and though full of good intentions, not always responsible of having genuine realistic concern despite the perky attitudes.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is friendly and do a great job explaining your injury and the reasons behind each exercise. Highly recommend this office for any physical therapy needs.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter broke a bone in her wrist and we saw Erin to help her rehab her injury. Erin was fantastic! She was so great with my daughter. Really took her time to answer any questions we had, help explain the exercises and made sure my daughter would be ok doing them on her own. Thank you Erin, and thank you Proactive! You guys are the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Kudos to the thorough care provided by knowledgeable, kind and professional Physical therapists & staff at ProActive Physical Therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: Carlsbad location has the best staff I’ve ever encountered. I’ve had PT with other companies, but Proactive is The Best! Kaitlyn by far is The Best Physical Therapist I’ve ever had. Very knowledgeable, professional, listens very conscientiously to my feedback and adjusts therapy accordingly. Kaitlyn has such a positive uplifting personality that it helped me be more optimistic and hopeful of a full recovery. As I had nearly all of my 26 treatments with her, she knew my condition very well and was very personable. She gives you the kind of attention, as if nobody else is in the room.....full attention. Thank you Kaitlyn and all of the Carlsbad staff for helping me recover so much.

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to Proactive PT in Carlsbad a few times over the years and have been pleased every time! Most recently I was treated by Luke and he helped my back pain immensely. He took the time to listen to my specific needs and address them individually. Further, every time I came in for PT, he asked how I was doing and we focused on what was troubling me at that visit, not just my initial issue. I highly recommend Proactive, and would definitely see Luke if and when I have to go back in. Thanks Luke!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome customer service ! By all at proactive. Appointments were easily made . I would recommend them to anyone that needs physical therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I do love the staff. They are such a great team & it shows in their attitudes.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent care and respectfull staff

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent physical therapy! Rehabbed a full knee replacement in two months and got my life back. Luke and the rest of the staff are so professional, friendly and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Professional administrative staff. Knowledgeable PTA & PT.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Proactive Physical Therapy for 1 1/2 years. I was injured in a head on collision with a wrong way driver which I endured 29 broken bones and my whole left side of my body is rebuilt. The staff at the Carlsbad facility is the best I have ever worked with in any of my therapy treatments I have had. Carol, Bill, Alberto, Mike, Meagan, Stacy, Alyssa. Thank you all for making our experience a great one and you guys all treat us like family. I especially like the Aquatic therapy it has brought me a long way from being in a wheelchair to walking with a walker and sometimes a cane. I am looking forward to many more treatments with the Carlsbad facility and would recommend everyone to go there for your therapy needs. Aloha, Butch Medeiros

Experiencia fantástica: ProActive Physical Therapy is the best place to go for physical therapy. I play soccer at California State University San Marcos and ProActive helped me recover three times so that I could get back to playing the sport I love. All of there staff is awesome. They personalize your recovery plan and set individual goals with you. Without ProActive I would have not recovered as well from my ACL surgery, another knee surgery, and an ankle injury. They are the reason I get to fulfill my dream of playing college soccer. Thanks ProActive!!

Experiencia fantástica: After twenty years of osteoarthritis and two joint replacements, Physical Therapy is a constant part of my life. So after my third joint replacement I was not expecting anything different. Proactiv in Carlsbad really changed my belief system. Bill, Carol, Stacy, Mike, Alyssa and others on staff were professional, positive and prepared to enable me to get back on my feet again. Throughout the 12 weeks they kept me motivated and smiling, working through all issues with patience. The best therapy experience for me EVER.

Experiencia negativa: I have been in Physical Therapy for a number of years after a botched up Fusion where my nerves are caught inside overgrown bone and narrowing of spinal canal. After going to Gaspar (great group) for the past 2 years, I wanted to try another therapist...Bill was my therapist; worked on me for 4-months; he had no idea what to do and made my pain/discomfort even worse. It seems like the only focus is to fill out the survey. I since then started with another company and after only 2 visits feel a lot better and I am able to walk better. The PT aid were great. Appointments were hard to get as they only schedule a month at a time and even on the last week of the current month, can't make appointment for the following month.

Experiencia fantástica: A big thank you to Donovan, Carol, Mike and the entire team at ProActive! They did an excellent job in helping me overcome a knee injury I had sustained playing soccer. They were instrumental In helping me strengthen some key areas to help me get back on the pitch! Also, the facility was clean and well organized.

Experiencia fantástica: Alberto & Carol were my hands on therapists. Both did an excellent job of gently working sore areas & strengthening weak areas. The facility is clean & well lighted with adequate parking. The exercise therapists are enthusiastic & efficient. My orthopedist used this group for his ailments & recommended them to me. This was the 2nd time in 5 years for me to need phys. ther. I went back to ProActive because I knew they would do a good job.

Experiencia fantástica: Great team of professional staff; very kind, informative, compassionate. Proactive Physical Therapy is a healing place in every area. Thank you Carol, Donovan, Bill, Alberto and all others for your professionalism, kindness and constant support. Amazing group of professionals and healers.

Experiencia fantástica: The entire team at Proactive was helpful, informed, supportive, and caring. I spent numerous weeks working with Donovan - his incredible knowledge and support helped me fully recover from a back injury. All employees knew me personally and collectively worked together to help me recover. There are not many facilities as great as Proactive, the physical therapists really make the program a great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: I spent several weeks in PT at ProActive Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine. My experience here was great! Laura and the team of staff members really care about your healing process. Thank You Team ProActive

Experiencia negativa: The care I received very good care from Carol in my treatment. The problem is your back office. Asked for my records once each week for three weeks and could not get them. I had to drive to your office to get my records by demanding them and not leaving until I got them. Therefore, the administrative function fails in customer service.

Experiencia fantástica: Immaculate interior, friendly staff & plenty of parking

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you to the whole team at Proactive in Carlsbad! I can't express my gratitude enough. Since day one, they continued to impress me with their professional manner, thorough assessment, thoughtful instructions, and kindness. I always felt my voice was heard when setting goals for my progress, and they encouraged me to reach out anytime with questions or concerns. I would like to take this opportunity to highlight the two therapists I saw throughout my rehab process, Alberto and Carol. These guys are incredible. I really appreciate how much thought they put into treating my knee and creating each therapy session and home exercise program. A special thanks to the exercise specialists Robbie, Roxanne, Mike, and Crystal. It was fun working with the whole team. Thanks guys!
