I cannot say enough superlatives about Dr. Ko and Synergy Physical Therapy. I was referred to another physical therapy practice by my orthopedist prior to complete knee replacement surgery, and it was managed like a production line with too many patients for too few physical therapists. I was reminded of Dr. Ko who I had used for my knees two years prior for a trip to Alaska and enjoyed the experience, and was able to hike the tundra in Denali. The staff that Dr. Ko has selected at Synergy create a positive environment from the moment I called for an appointment to being greeted for each appointment with friendly smiles that made me feel like I belonged in the practice. They are efficient, and tailored a regime to fit my needs. Mr. Kong, the massage therapist, has a unique gift of making you feel relaxed and addressing you individually. Mr. Kong also takes a personal interest in your care. Dr. Ko has developed a team who work toward each patient reaching the limits of the exercise, but they are patient and work to reach the level the patient can achieve. Dr. Ko, himself, took a personal interest in helping me through discouraging days, and took the time to answer all of my questions including what I could expect of the knee replacement. Thanks to Dr. Ko and his staff I am able to ride my bike with my husband, something four months ago, I did not think I would be able to do. My Thanks to Dr. Ko and his entire staff. I will need to have my other knee done in the future, and I will be returning to Dr. Ko and Synergy for their superior care. Thank you Synergy!

I had surgery on my back years ago and was told about 8 years ago to go to physical therapy. I figured I could just do the exercises on my own andddd that landed me right to Dr. Kos office. Dr. Kos knowledge is unmatched! It is clear that whoever works for him or with him should count it a privilege. It also helps that the place is extremely clean, staff are very knowledgable, and if there was ever a wait, it was less than 5 min. 98% of the time I would have to come dressed because even if I got there about 5 minutes early, they would be ready for me. What was amazing was that they treat you like family from the first day--they ALL remember your name by the second visit (even staff that I hadnt met...was so strange haha, but amazing because I am terrible with names) and they have your paperwork ready for you BEFORE you walk through the door, which made for a very smooth process. One thing I loved about the place was that you can tell its a teaching facility--from the staff to the patient...whether you are a new employee or new patient, by the time you leave, you will know the names of the exercises (or at least yours), be able to do it on your own, and even show someone else if needed lol! I went to PT at a time where I never would let anyone touch or massage my lower back, to now having built my back muscles and feeling more comfortable and not worrying about back spasms and signs of sciatica. I dont care where I move, if I ever have another PT issue, Dr. Ko is who I am seeing!

Probably the best experience Ive ever had with any type of Physical Therapy, Chiropractic or rehabilitation. Dr. Ko runs an exceptional practice in a very clean and well maintained office. I have been to many physical therapists who run you through the routine while juggling to many other patients at the same time. Dr. Ko and the staff at Synergy value your time and respectfully spend the time you need to understand the mechanics of your body. They are extremely knowledgeable about the specific ailments you have and offer suggestions on how to help the pain. Dr. Ko listens to your needs, addresses questions you have about your progress and spends one on one time working with the patients individually. The massage therapist, Lynn is absolutley amazing. I like the practices approach to healing and really appreciate the time allotted with Lynn as part of the treatment to promote blood flow through therapeutic massage. Id have to say my time with the practice was life changing and I recommend them to anyone in need a top notch physical therapy program.

I started to have chronic migraines everyday, and my neurologist suggested this practice for physical therapy for my stiff neck. Ive been going there for about 2 months now, and have had a major turn around; My neck is more flexible and stronger, I have only had couple of migraines since, and no longer need migraine medication. They have great hours, the office is nice and clean, the staff is welcoming, and Dr. Ko listens to my concerns and thoroughly answers any questions I may have about my treatment. I am sure that without this physical therapy, I would have never been able to function during the days. The best part is that I know, with a little more treatment, I wont HAVE to go as often. I can go whenever, like maintenance on your car, to make sure that I dont start having my migraines and have to take medication; Because why would I want to take a medication when I can get even better results with physical therapy and relaxation at Synergy? I would suggest this place to anyone in need of physical therapy.

As a physically active 58 year-old, my body has required p.t. for a variety of maladies including my right shoulder, a tendon behind my left knee and my thumbs. This has brought me into contact with four different local therapy outfits in the last decade or so. They have all accomplished their objectives of making the offending body part operational again. Synergy (Dr. Ko et al) was my most recent p.t. involvement. The physical plant is the most commodious of the four Ive been to. New, clean and spacious. Dr. Ko and his staff (including Masseuse Mr. Kong) are very pleasant, very capable and dont waste a minute of ones visit. I guess it is hard to complain about any of the therapy outfits as they were all promptly successful but certainly if Synergy is convenient for you they are an excellent choice.

I just finished a 5 month physical therapy program with Synergy, and cannot say enough good about this office. From the first time I walked into the door, I was treated with great care and compassion. Before I began at Synergy Physical Therapy, I had never needed rehabilitation. Dr. Ko and his staff pushed me and motivated me through every step of the process, even when I feared the "what-ifs" or became frustrated. I felt as if my success were celebrated with me as I hit each progress marker. Their masseuse on staff, Mr Kong, is incredibly knowledgeable of the muscles and how the body works, and teaches you something each session; which is a great bonus! You will leave Synergy Physical Therapy feeling stronger, and smarter!

I had a torn meniscus and needed physical therapy after I had surgery. I can not say enough about the wonderful staff and doctors that are at synergy in Maple Lawn. They are not only caring, they guide you through the exercises from the start of your session through the end. They are always friendly, happy to see you, happy to work with you and actually make it fun to go to therapy. I went for 26 sessions which ended yesterday and I actually had mixed feelings about leaving these people behind. I feel like the personal service that they gave me made a world of difference to how well and fast I was able to heal. They want you to get and feel better. Thanks to all there for making me feel like a part of a "family".
