I came to Performance Physical Therapy to rehab a surgically reconstructed ACL that I tore while skiing. My first appointment after surgery I was unable to complete the exercises set forth in the standard post ACL rehab plan. Without hesitation, Meghan quickly reworked my plan and got my knee moving using a different approach. Through out my entire physical therapy course she proved to be extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and determined to get me back to my pre surgery range of motion. She knew when to push me through the pain to strengthen my knee but also knew the difference when something wasn’t quite right and referred me back to my surgeon. Meghan reworked my therapy regimen at every visit to ensure it was appropriate for how I was progressing. Even when I wouldn’t tell her, she knew exactly which exercises were getting too easy and which were a little too difficult. After I completed my therapy course, my surgeon was extremely impressed with my mobility and range of motion. I scored in the 96th percentile for post ACL repair mobility. All of the staff I encountered at PPT was amazing. They all knew my name and made it a point to ask me how I was doing that day, even if they were not working with me. They took me in and treated me like family, which makes all the difference when you are experiencing the pain of rehabbing an injury. They truly were able to take a life altering injury and rehab me to a place where I am stronger now than I was before my injury. I would highly recommend PPT to anyone who needs therapy!

When my doctor prescribed physical therapy for my knees, I knew that I wanted someplace close to home so that getting to numerous appointments would be more convenient. I was fortunate to find Performance Physical Therapy. My experience there was so much better than I could have anticipated. From my first appointment I knew that I had come to the right place. I was immediately impressed with Sean, my therapist, who listened carefully to my history and created goals that worked for me. I especially appreciated the fact that he would always explain how and why each exercise worked, which really motivated me to work even harder. The assistants at PPT were so attentive and supportive too; getting through each session was much easier with their encouragement. Everyone there is professional and compassionate; they were sincerely interested in my progress, and seemed to care about me as a person. My physician was extremely pleased with my improvement, and I feel like I have gotten my life back. I have “graduated” from PT, but with my home program of stretches and exercises, I am able to do the daily activities that used to cause me discomfort. I have regained my mobility and self-sufficiency, and I have Sean and Performance Physical Therapy to thank for that!

Ten weeks after double knee replacement surgery I was walking four miles with no knee pain. My surgeon was very impressed with my progress and he attributed it largely to good physical therapy. I visited Performance Physical Therapy before and after surgery. It was immediately obvious that at Performance Physical Therapy the focus is on the patient. I had the opportunity to work with many staff members. Everyone from receptionist, to therapy assistants, to physical therapists, was courteous, knowledgeable and truly concerned about my progress. I credit not only the personalized rehabilitation program, but equally the constant support and concern of the staff for my recovery. Another example of concern for the patient at Performance Physical Therapy is their private evaluation and therapy rooms. During every visit I was guided through a targeted exercise routine in the common gym area, but I also had a private session with a physical therapist for individual treatment, as well as an opportunity to review my progress and therapy plan away from other patients. I was very impressed with both the professional treatment and patient focus at Performance Physical Therapy.

I have had pain in my left hip and leg for two years that is caused by degenerative disc disease in my back. When my PCP first prescribed PT, I went to a different provider that resulted in no improvement. I have since been having injections to relieve my pain. My specialist recommended that I go to John Bradley at Performance Physical Therapy. John had me doing exercises totally different from what I was told previously. I have noticed a continuous improvement in the level of pain. I was impressed by John not only showing me what to do, but more importantly explaining why this particular exercise was going to help me. Furthermore, John created a home program for me so that I can continue to improve. As others have mentioned the staff makes you feel welcome and the facility is neat and clean. I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Performance Physical Therapy in Hockessin.

After surgery late last year I went to Performance for PT and was absolutely thrilled by the care I received. The outcome was the most positive I could have expected. The entire staff is very knowledgable, and provided a most caring, friendly atmosphere which made the recovery process not only productive but fun as well. Kim in particular had me on a program which, I believe, made all the difference. From reception to billing and everyone in between the overall experience more than exceeded my expectation to the point I looked forward to my sessions. And, it worked in deed, as I have resumed all my normal activities with no issues. I do not believe that would have been possible without Performance Physical Therapy & Fitness. They are the consummate professionals and I highly recommend PPT & F for any physical therapy needs.

I have known Steve and John for almost 25 years. They both are extremely professional and caring. It did not matter what I was there for, whether it was my knee, foot, shoulder, back or neck, their staff worked hard to get me back to "normal". If that is such a thing for me! I am currently being seen by Heena for therapy on my shoulder following rotator cuff surgery. Heena is very knowledgeable, thoughtful, pleasant and enjoyable to work with and talk too. She has a great sense of understanding her patients and how they are responding to their individual treatments. From the front desk staff, Physical Therapist, to the Therapy Assistants there is always a professional, caring and concerned attitude for all of their clients. Highly recommended - 5 stars.

Steve & his team at Performance Physical Therapy were such a dream to work with. I was recommended to Steve by clients of mine & could not be happier with my experience & results. The surgeon who performed my ACL reconstruction was very impressed with my speedy progress & credited it to my physical therapy treatment stating that the surgery was only a tiny portion-- how the rest of my recovery was dependent on physical therapy. I truly felt like a close friend or family member at Performance because their care & diligence went beyond that of a business. When you are under Steves wing, he will do everything in his power to ensure you are as close to 100% as possible. I never thought physical therapy could be such a fun & enjoyable experience!

I went to Performance PT after a injury to my rotator cuff from softball. The first day I was worked up very thoroughly and talked about my plan to get the strength back up in my shoulder. After every session I was given a cool down period with ice that helped my shoulder. Also I always felt in the loop. It was my PT plan and the therapist really worked with me on what would be best for me and my shoulder. After some time I was able to be back playing softball and doing everyday activities without pain and the strength in my shoulder was finally were it should be! Very pleased and thankful for all the friendly staff and their efforts!
