I recently went to an orthopedic doctor due to pain in my knees. He recommended that I go to a physical therapist to strengthen the muscles around the joint. I actually tried to talk him out of it. He really wanted me to do the therapy so that the joint could be evaluated with an experienced therapist. I decided to go to East Athens PT because it is convenient and I had heard good things about the practice. Donna, the receptionist, scheduled my appointment right away. Stephanie actually did the evaluation and I started 6 weeks of therapy. After about 4 weeks, I fell and injured the other knee. I thought that I would have to return to the orthopedic doctor but Donna talked me into coming there and letting Stephanie evaluate the injury. I could not even bend the knee when I went in to see her. By the time I left she had the joint moving little by little. I actually ended up going to see them 7 weeks due to the injury. Both knees are much better. While I have been going I was also helped by Michael and Dylan. All the people in the office are very kind and professional.

I had a big backpacking trip planned and hurt my neck, tossing my kids in the pool about two months before leaving. Completely debilitating pain - as in lie on the floor and not move. After going to Athens Ortho, I ended up at East Athens PT for therapy. Jim Mike diagnosed me, and discovered the diagnosis I had received from Athens Ortho was incorrect. He came up with a plan, and I visited twice a week for a month. Chris was my PT, and I also worked with Brittany, Carey and several others. They were very professional throughout, while also making it fun and relaxed. I actually looked forward to going. After a month, the pain was gone, and I was given some exercises to do on my own to help continue the healing process. I would not have been able to go on the backpacking trip without their help. Highly recommended.

I have had the need for Physical therapy services on three occasions and have gone to East Athens PT each time. I have found the entire staff to be very helpful and professional and always willing to work with my scheduling preferences. I have worked with three different Physical Therapists and all 3 were kind and caring and I felt they took an interest in me as a person not just an interest in my knee or shoulder or whatever. The techs have always been helpful and kind as well. I really appreciate that the therapists have all been gentle and did not go by the "no pain, no gain" mantra! Of course I hope I dont need PT again but if I do I will certainly choose East Athens. I will also recommend them to friends and family, should the need arise.

East Athens Physical Therapy is an exceptional physical therapy facility and resource. They combined structured and gentle therapy for my physical problems that eliminated my neck pain completely. After weeks of severe pain that stretched from my neck down my back and arm all the way to my elbow, where I was in tears by the end of each day, their progressive exercises and therapy worked to relieve all of the pain associated with my neck compression. All of the staff members are kind, gentle and knowledgeable therapists who follow procedures and explain thoroughly how to do each exercise properly to achieve a full recovery. I highly recommend East Athens Physical Therapy without any hesitations.

Jim Mike and his crew are wonderful! They were responsible for my therapy on my back as well as my Achilles tendinitis and bone spur. I chose to go to Jim Mike because he is certified in the McKenzie spinal techniques which often can save people from having back surgery. Each person there, from the office staff to the PTs and PTAs were kind and helpful and taught me how to do much of the therapy at home. I would enthusiastically recommend East Athens Physical Therapy Clinic for the highest level of care available in Athens and the surrounding area.

My experience was awesome! I never anticipate having a great experience or even looking forward to physical therapy, but JimMike and his staff are knowledge, friendly, and make the experience enjoyable. I would absolutely encourage anyone who requires physical therapy to check out East Athens Physical Therapy. You will not regret it and youll get a free T-shirt at the completion of your program! How can you go wrong! Thanks East Athens Physical Therapy - JimMike, Russell, Rachel, and Katie!

In June I had a total hip replacement. I went to East Athens Physical Therapy in Madison Georgia for my therapy. From the start the staff was very knowledgeable about what my specific needs were to recoup from surgery. Every visit I made was a pleasant experience from signing in at the front desk to doing the physical therapy itself. The staff paid attention to what I was doing and kept the flow going. I would definitely recommend East Athens Physical Therapy to anyone needing therapy.

My time at East Athens Physical Therapy (Madison) was well spent in getting my hand back to where i can function day to day at my job. The therapist Jim Mike and Hannah were right on with the type of therapy i needed for my hand. When i was here everyone from the front office to the back was friendly and willing to help, it was fun yet everyone was serious about getting me back to full function. This was my second time attending therapy here and i will definitely be back if need be.

EAPT is absolutely fantastic. I never once felt pressure to do anything that made me uncomfortable which is sometimes very common in a physical therapy setting. The therapists are accommodating, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable! Most importantly, my results have been great. I began with severe neck and shoulder pain from bulging discs and have improved by leaps and bounds. I recommend East Athens PT to anyone who needs physical therapy. Dr. Stephanie Woodall kicks butt!!

If you have to do therapy I highly recommend East Athens Physical Therapy. They are a smaller facility so that you dont get lost in the crowd like at other places in town. You get great one on one care, they have a pleasant attitude and I did not meet one person I did not like, they are all great. The care I got was phenomenal. Since I had already missed work time due to surgery they made it easy to schedule late day appointments so I didnt have to miss more work.

The only place that was able to correctly diagnose and treat my hip and back pain. After many visits to the orthopedic and chiropractor with no results I finally tried East Athens Physical Therapy. They paid close attention to everything I was saying and were able to put together a very effective routine for me to heal. After just 3 weeks I felt way better than I had in 4 months. I would highly recommend this office. They listen and truly care about their patients.

Everyone warned me that recovering from rotator cuff surgery would be difficult and involved. Chris and the staff at the Athens office were concerned about my rehabilitation and pain management. With their help, I know my recovery was with less pain and as fast as I could have hoped for. Everyone in the office was helpful and always concerned about my progress, and Chris tells the best jokes! I could not be more please or satisfied with my recovery and care.
