Very pleased with Lisa’s approach to PT. She has a sharp eye in observing not only correctness of exercise routines but also collateral deficiencies ( due to bodily compensations) and makes adjustments. I appreciate her attention to detail and enthusiasm.

Lisa is a very personable and competent Physical Therapist who will be helping me with my recent injury and who has helped me in the past as well. She's focused on thorough healing without pushing too hard, and the fact that she's been at SO for many years is testament to her qualifications and dedication to her profession.

Lisa has been very helpful during the rehab of my shoulder. She has a way of making physical therapy enjoyable to be at even though it is hard work. She created a therapy program that helped me recover back to what I was able to do before my injury.Request an Appointment
