I didnt want to go to the doctor. I didnt want to go to PT. I wanted to run. More. Harder. Faster. Turns out you cant run very well on a fractured hip and psoas tendinopathy. My doc and colleagues had good things to say about Select Phys Therapy. I didnt care; I was busy pouting and hurting. Fine, Ill go to the appointment. My PT asked me a lot of questions and assessed the current situation, and sent me home with some exercise "homework". I was also ordered to rest. Rest?!? Fine, Ill follow directions. Matt certainly knew more about the human body than I did. Every week, I listened to Matt as he explained the mechanics of me in great detail. We did some strengthening exercises and slowly reintroduced some cardio. He answered my many questions and made sure I understood why we performed certain movements, and how I could incorproate those into my running program so I could be a better athlete. I learned about my anatomy, dynamic warmups, and how to workout without crossing the fine line of too much pain. He always made sure I was comfortable and balanced my care with his other patients. Over time, my hip healed. I stopped pouting. I started running again. After 12 weeks, I had to say goodbye to Select Physical Therapy and fly on my own. Incorporating the tools I learned from Matt, I completed a 40 minute walking/running 5k this week. My clicking IT band also finally fell silent for the first time in a year thanks to Matts strengthening exercises. Watch out, 50k! Im on my way. Slowly. Thanks also to Emily and Casey who work hard for the patients. Red River rocks!

Thank you Casey and Matt! I had ACL surgery 7 months ago. Over the past 6 months Ive been going to see Casey for my physical therapy. Throughout the time I was recovering, Casey gave me the personal attention and feedback I needed to help me strengthen my knee and get back to playing the sports I love. He tailored my therapy routines to match my style of exercise so that I could easily continue my exercises from home (I dont make a habit of going to the gym and Im not too familiar with proper form or techniques). Both Matt and Casey have a clear and simple way of explaining things so that I caught on quickly. When Casey had to take several weeks off to take care of his new son, Matt stepped in and picked up right where Casey left off. When Casey got back, he even helped me shop for a cost efficient knee brace (not something that was part of his job description. The knee brace was prescribed by my surgeon). Their friendly professional attitude made me feel almost like family and its how I wish all of my personal service interactions would go. Its also why I will recommend them to anyone I know who find themselves in the unfortunate position of needing a physical therapist. Thanks again guys!

I highly recommend Casey Hamilton and Matt Elizondo at Select Physical Therapy. I came to Casey after about 5-6 years of having chronic lower back issues. Over the past 6-8 months hes helped me eliminate virtually all of my pain, improve my range of motion, and generally feel better on a day-to-day basis. The recovery process was slow for me because of the length of time that my back has been in bad condition, but Casey was extremely diligent throughout the entire period. I felt confident in his ability to diagnose and treat my back issues, and hes very thorough in explaining/answering questions. I only worked with Matt a couple of times, but he was an excellent therapist as well.

Matt and Casey are phenomenal physical therapists. I came to Matt right out of surgery on my shoulder due to multiple dislocations, and he was able to bring me from virtually no mobility, to a full range of motion. He was very knowledgable in answering all my questions, and never put too much pressure on the recovery process. He was able to adequately facilitate the healing of my shoulder, and gave me the comfort of knowing I had an experienced individual watching out for me. Hopefully, I never have to see a physical therapist again, but if need be, I know I will return to Select Physical Therapy on Red River.

Excellent physical therapy delivered with an upbeat, positive attitude in a client-oriented environment. My wife and I were both referred to Select Physical Therapy for shoulder and neck issues; were being treated by Casey Hamilton. As well as displaying exceptional hands-on skill, Casey’s done a great job of explaining what we need to do and how we need to do it. Caseys knowledge as a Physical Therapist has had a direct impact on our ability, at 62 and 65, to feel fit and pain-free. We appreciate the quality customer service we receive from the whole team at Select Physical Therapys Red River facility.

I tore my ACL/ lateral meniscus and had surgery on December 3. I started physical therapy with Matt Elizonda in first week of January. Matt got me ready to run the Statesman Capital 10K in April which I completed successfully (<4mins off my time from personal record time). I also ran a 5K a month later (May) and set a personal record time of 24 mins. I could not have been able to accomplish these goals without Matt! Thanks to Matt, I feel more physically fit now than I was before I tore my ACL. Id highly recommend him for your physical therapy needs!

I started going to physical therapy here when I had my second ACL reconstructive surgery. The previous therapy center I went to was in Houston and this place is way better than my previous therapy center. Matt Elizondo doesnt just tell you what exercises to do but he tells you why they are important and where they fit in the entire rehabilitation process. I would recommend Matt to anyone I know who tears their ACL, and I know how important rehab is having gone through two separate tears. Easily 5 stars, 6 if I could.

I became a patient of Matts a few weeks ago when I was ready to admit that I needed help with my back, and that resting just wasnt enough. Matt educated me on what had occurred in my body over the last few months, and gave me the tools I needed to overcome my injury and get back to my normal workouts. He understood my needs, and was a very personable PT. I would highly recommend this place, whatever the injury may be! Thanks Matt!

I had hip replacement surgery. The care and service that I received was excellent. The staff was friendly and caring. James, my physical therapist, is highly knowledgeable and helped me learn how to walk again without a limp. At times, I became frustrated with my situation, but James encouraged me, worked with me and helped me overcome. I am grateful to James and everyone at Select Physical Therapy. ~K. Harrison

I highly recommend James Sanchez for anyone needing physical therapy/rehabilitation. I received excellent treatment and home exercise routine instruction with great attention to detail and follow-on. Physical therapy is never an easy process as one must push his/herself to make progress. However the overall environment at Select is comforting and pleasant which adds an intangible to the process.

Matt at Select Physical Therapy was great! He always took extra time to explain things to me and make sure I understood the exercises and the progress I was making on my recovery after my knee injury. Id highly recommend him and Select Physical Therapy in general for any injury recovery.
