I highly recommend Rogan Taylor at Fyzical. I went to him initially for one thing, but he ended up helping me recover from something I thought Id have to live with for the rest of my life. About ten years ago when I was in my mid-20s, I was diagnosed with Vertebrobasilar Insufficiency (VBI). Every time I turned my head past a certain point, it would cut off the blood flow to my brain. This caused vertigo, weakness and and loss of vision which would correct itself when I turned my head back into a neutral position. Over the years Ive been to several doctors, including two neurosurgeons. The solution, I was told, if I didnt want to have a risky surgery, was to stop turning my head. So thats what I did. I tried not to turn my head unless it was absolutely necessary. But as a young mother of four children, it wasnt easy. I was plagued with debilitating headaches and neck pain. I finally read online that physical therapy was helpful in reducing symptoms of VBI, so I went to a physical therapist that my father recommended up in South Jordan. That PT helped me stretch and strengthen my muscles, which eased my pain, but didt help the dizziness, etc, which I felt when turning my head, so eventually I gave up on it. Last summer I injured my shoulder in a mountain biking wreck, and after a couple of months of pain, I decided to see a physical therapist. Several people recommended Rogan Taylor, but I didnt want to go to him initially because he was an out-of-network provider on my insurance. I called anyway to see how much they would charge and as it turns out, they offer a discount for self paying patients, so it ended up being affordable. I went to Rogan looking for help with my shoulder. I was convinced that my VBI, headaches and neck pain were lifelong afflictions that I would just have to deal with. Not only did Rogan fix up my shoulder, but hes helped me with my neck and upper back, which were a mess, and now I hardly ever have symptoms of VBI. Apparently, years of not allowing my head to turn had locked up my vertebrae and caused inflammation that was blocking blood flow and exacerbating my VBI. Thanks to Rogan, I have full range of motion in my neck and now I know how important it is to keep it moving. I still get headaches occasionally, and when I feel one coming on, I go to Rogan and he gets my joints moving properly again and my headache subsides. Besides Rogan being awesome, the staff is helpful and accommodating and the techs are friendly.

About April of 2012, my hip started hurting. I put up with it until about Dec., when I started limping. I talked to Kimball Taylor and asked if he could help it. He thought he could, and that it was my sacro iliac. I went in once in December, 2012, and in 3 days I wasnt limping. I did the stretches he told me to do and it just got better and better. I did go back again in Jan. 2013. It just consistently got better, until today, I feel great. Then in September of 2013, I developed a pain in my back. It was by my shoulder blade. Over the next couple of months, my arm became very painful and my 4th and 5th fingers of my right hand went numb. Kimball again thought he could help. He told me it was a thoracic outlet nerve problem. I went 5 times before Christmas and the numbness and hurt gradually went away. Now, after a month and a 1/2, I feel totally better. It is great to play the piano without numb fingers. I feel like Kimball made a correct diagnosis in each instance. He was able to manipulate my problem areas and bring them back to health. I think that the stretches that he gave me we simple and so helpful. It is a pretty big thing for me to walk without pain, and to use my hand and arm without pain and numbness. I feel that Kimball and the office staff and the technicians were very efficient and kind. I will totally go back to them if I every need physical therapy again, which, of course, I hope that I dont.

Came in with foot and leg pain as I was a student and just moved to the area. Could not figure out why this was going on and neither could doctors. I even went to neurologist to try get a jist of why my lower extremities were so sore. Came to rogan and he was able to figure out what was wrong in minutes. I had sacro iliac joint issues. After a month of treatment I am 60% better and I feel a lot less pain. Rogan was a God sent to me in my time of need. He has a ton of experience and the best physical therapist I have ever seen and I am not from Utah, Im from Lisa Angeles and have had a lot of experience with physical therapists as I am going to school to become a health professional. Rogan explained my issues clearly and scientifically and told me step by step what I needed to do. I listened and its working. Dont know what I would do if I didnt find this place, Im lucky. Dont go to just anyone, go to someone with great insight , knowledge, and experience. You wont be sorry if you come here !!! Also shout out to the great techs who do ultrasound and massage. This is the icing on the cake!

My 82-yr-old father was experiencing a lot of back pain so we went to Fyzical and while there they asked about his hearing loss. When Dr. Rogan explained to my father the increase in dementia among those who are hard of hearing, my father went across the hall to the wonderful hearing and balance specialist in their clinic, Jay Turner. Jay was so patient with my father and explained all about hearing tests and the different hearing aids available. When my father saw how small the hearing aids were and how easy to fit and wear he had the 20 minute hearing test and now has hearing aids. His hearing aids are "top of the line" and the best in the industry, and the hearing test software used by Jay is the best available. My fathers response, "Why didnt I do this 20 yrs. ago? This is life-changing!" We are thrilled with the excellent treatment of both the physical therapists at Fyzical and the Doctor of Audiology, Jay, who works in their clinic. He accomplished something we had been trying to do for "20 years." Thanks to the whole team for making our experience life-changing.

I had thrown out my back and was having back pain for several months. I had gone to a chiropractor several times and he kept promising me that he could fix it. After about 12 times of going, my back was still not any better. I then decided to go to a Physical Therapist. A friend referred me to this clinic. Kimball Taylor was the doctor who was working with me. He was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful right from the start. The treatment I received was top notch. Very quickly, my back started to get better with less and less pain each time. It only took about 5-6 visits and I was finally pain-free. It turned out to be a problem with my SI Joint that the chiropractors had never diagnosed. I highly recommend their service and I will always go back to them without hesitation.
