Testimonials
To The Entire Staff,
Thank you so much for helping me get back on both feet so fast.
You were all very professional, knowledgeable and helpful throughout my long rehab. I certainly know where I'm going for rehab should I have another bad day of skiing.
Hopefully, that won't be too soon.....Have a great summer!
Sincerely,
Mike Dansbury
Bonjourno!
This is but a small token of my great appreciation for everything you all have done to assist with my therapy over two knee operations.
I always looked forward to my appointment for therapy because of the very welcoming manner with which I was treated.
Best wishes to you all!
Sincerely,
Lou
I just wanted to thank you for getting me in so quickly and helping me with my back ache. I really appreciate your help and expertise to help me to understand how to keep my back healthy. Thank you again for all your assistance.

I just wanted to say thank-you for helping me get back on my feet. If it wasn't for your "shimmey shakes" and those stretches, I probably would have ended up back in the hospital for a very painful procedure. I can't speak highly enough for your staff. What a wonderful, skilled, professional group of people you have working for you. You're very fortunate! You'll probably still see me using the pool from time to time - that really feels so good and it's relaxing. Thank you again for your time and expertise in getting my knee back in shape!

I have been a patient in your South Glens Falls Office since May. At my first visit, I remember thinking it was all a little too relaxed. I very quickly realized it was the right amount of relaxed - it was comfortable. I have bursitis in my right hip and thanks to Chris my pain is minimal.
I never doubted that Chris knew what he was talking about nor that he was committed to helping me heal and reduce my pain - his gentle manner reflects and instills confidence. He is responsive and honest in assessment and answering questions. He listens carefully and is extremely knowledgeable - he doesn't ever seem frustrated or hurried and I always saw him at the end of his day.
The receptionist Karen skillfully handles many situations by phone and in person and her manner is quite efficient, yet very friendly. If Chris and Karen are a reflection of you, your business, your commitment and philosophy, then you should be proud of what you have accomplished and extremely pleased with your choice of staff. Thank You!

Just a note to thank you for the services provided. I have had 24 sessions of therapy to my knee. I believe that I have been assisted by all of your therapists at one time or another. All are friendly, competent, and concerned about my welfare. Most of my appointments have been with Paul, who explains different aspects of my treatment as well as different exercises that will improve my condition. In my opinion, he is an excellent therapist and I would recommend him, as well as the others in your office highly. I realize that I have extensive arthritis in my knee and will never be able to do things that I used to do, however, I have seen much improvement since my treatments. Thank you.

Recently I completed 2 months of Physical Therapy under the care of Jason at your South Glens Falls facility. After 2 previous PT experiences, I went with some hesitations and pessimism. However, I wish you to know I could not be more pleased with both the process and the results. Jason is a true professional yet warm. He patiently explained each procedure and exercise, answered a mirade of quesions yet was never condescending. From Jason, I learned more about my spinal condition than I have from all the MD's and "specialists" I've seen in the past 10 years. He also equipped me with many valuable skills I now use on my own.
Jasons knowledge and natural leadership abilities command respect, while his intuitiveness and ever good nature compel one to easily like him and thus follow the recovery plan with cooperation and good humor. I am also impressed with his ability to stay calm and focused under pressure and able to make each patient feel they are important. Your receptionist/Aide named Karen has a special ease with people and provides a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Jason and Karen are both unique to my experience and I wish only success to them and to your business, and recommend both highly.

I want to thank you all so much for the patience and kindness that was extended to me during my physical therapy appointments. You all have so much energy and enthusiasm in helping people reach their goals. The office is so organized, and you all work so great together. It was a pleasure to come to your office! You will come very highly recommended by me to all my friends and family. I am so satisfied with the dkills I was taught to control my "long existing back problems." Thank you all for everything that you did for me. I give you all a "AAA" rating!
Kathryn R. (November 2001)
Sending you this note to thank you for the excellent care given to me during my physical therapy. I have struggled with back problems for years but this has been the most painful and longest lasting problem I've been through. It was so helpful to have been given continuous exercises to do when the pain increased so that I didn't have to wait until another appointment to feel relief. I'm so happy to have learned the ongoing exercises to keep my back healthy and pain-free. So many times I have been given medication to take care of the pain, but not the information to help correct the problem. Now, I feel more secure about being able to help eliminate the pain myself before it gets out of control. Thank you for your positive attitude and helpful information. I made it through the packing and moving with virtually no pain!

I would like to thank you and your staff for the services I received at your facility in December and January for an injury to my right leg. I was impressed with your facility, professionalism and the quality of care given to me as a patient. I am certain that my healing was a result of the therapy I received. It definitely enhanced circulation, reduced lameness, and increased flexibility at a faster rate. A special thanks to Kerri Shpur who handled most of my visits. She was truely tuned into my condition from visit to visit, and offered a progressive plan that worked really well. Thank you, Kerri. I only wish that I could continue strength training with you longer. Denise, you have a great facility there. Thanks for all that you have done for me, and it was great seeing you again!
Joanne C. (February 2004)
Thank you so much for the time you spent with me and your genuine concern during our sessions together. I am happy to report that I'm almost back to my old self after gradually setting back to a minimal teaching schedule incorporating your suggestions. I was so impressed with the professionalism at your facility and particularly with your compassion and knowledge. Let's hope our paths cross again - hopefully under happier circumstances!

I thought my tennis elbow would never heal! I tried various medications and totally avoided using my right arm, but could not get rid of the pain until I began physical therapy at Orthopedic & Spine Physical Therapy. After a few visits, I can finally open doors and shake hands without wincing. What a relief!
The entire experience at Ortho & Spine has been great; the staff, the whirlpool treatments, the massages. I would highly recommend Orthopedic & Spine Physical Therapy to anyone who wants to be rid of their aches and pains once and for all!

To all my physical therapists:
Jason: Thanks for listening to all my problems and making me feel better both physically and mentally!
Lindsay: Thanks for going the extra mile and figuring out exercises that would work for me and not hurt my back more!
Patti: Thanks for always giving me a happy greeting and all the helpful heating packs and ice packs!
Kristen S. (August 2007)
To all at Ortho & Spine PT,
I want to thank all of you for helping me over the past two months. I would not have done so well without your dedication. Patti was always a Joy and a friendly face. She was always very encouraging. Jason, Chris and Paul were "Task Masters" but very helpful. My progress is due to all of you. Jason seemed to enjoy it more! Thanks so much and please enjoy the fruit basket. My thanks to all including those I have not mentioned.

Dear Denise and PT Team:
I miss you all; you are the most professional, terrific team I've ever had on my side. Thank you for your help and understanding. Your skills made my pain so much less and I almost enjoyed needing your sevices. Keep up the great work.

To Denise and the entire Orthopedic & Spine P.T. Team:
From my first phone call to Donna to set up appointments in early June and through each therapy session before and after my shoulder surgery, each of you has contributed to my recovery through your smiles, warm words of encouragement and support and humor, always humor. Everything about your holistic approach to healing makes a difference, and you can be very proud, as individuals and as team members, for the reputation you project within our community and the surrounding area.
Thank you for being you, and I wish you and your families a very special Christmas and Happy New Year!
Only the warmest "Thank You" will do for people as nice and as special as you!
