I have been a patient at James River Physical Therapy for several ‘physical recoveries’ over the years. I return because I know the excellent quality of care that I will receive there. Dan List (therapist) has a calming, supportive personality combined with a vast knowledge of his field plus a variety of appropriate treatments for his patients. Dan is encouraging and challenging - but never becomes a ‘physical terrorist’ in his manner or recommendations. He has a subtle sense of humor that I appreciate which makes therapy sessions informative, instructive - and even enjoyable. In fact, the whole ‘team’ at JRPT is first-rate (Dan, Leslie, Debbie and Lee). I can recommend them without reservation.

About eight years ago I sustained a back injury while exercising at my local gym. It was so severe that I had problems walking before I had to stop every two to three steps after the pain shot down my legs. I was very limited in my movement for three weeks even though I was under medication (steroids) and Chiropractor visits. Finally, my Primary Doctor referred me to James River PT (Daniel List). This was the best decision made. He worked with me diligently, and after 8-10 sessions I was able to recover fully. Presently, Im seeing him for another injury and things are going great. I strongly recommend JRPT to anyone seeking physical care and speedy recovery.

Dan is the man! Last year I had two bunion repair surgeries - one for each foot - yikes! My surgeon didnt send me to physical therapy until a couple months after my first surgery. Dan listened to what my goals were and diligently helped me to achieve them. For the next surgery I knew that PT was essential and started seeing Dan six weeks after surgery. He had me back to my normal self in no time. If you have an injury of surgery, dont put off physical therapy and go to JRPT. Dan and his staff will take excellent care of you and you wont just be a number in a big facility. Thank you, Dan and JRPT!!

Eight years ago, I developed painful bursitis in my hip. My PCP highly recommended that I see Dan List at James River Physical Therapy, and its easy to see why. Dan is very personable and knowledgeable about physiology and physical ailments. After a brief assessment, he was able to treat the trigger points in my hip and my pain was lessened almost immediately. He recommended exercises for me to do at home, which involves the patient in the healing process. Dan is a great listener and advisor, and someone that I consider to be a friend, because he is genuinely concerned about his patients.

In late July I had knee replacement surgery performed by Dr. Swanson at Martha Jefferson Hospital in Charlottesville, VA. Dr. Swanson offers a different, relatively painless knee replacement surgery and thus a different protocol for Physical Therapy post surgery. Dan List at James River Physical Therapy followed the protocol perfectly and I soon was back to walking with ease. I praise Dr. Swanson for her remarkable surgery technique and Daniel List at James River Physical therapy for the very effective treatment Dan provided me. Thank you, Dan! .

Over a period of five years, Dan and his awesome staff have guided me through pre and post hip replacement surgeries. Under their guidance and support, I have learned to manage my pain through strengthening my muscles and using alternative treatments. These are skills that I will use forever! I sincerely appreciate your personal attention to the details of explaining, modeling and observing each exercise with me. For sure, I always leave feeling better than when I arrived! Many thanks!

Dan did a great job getting me back on track. Post Hip Replacement surgery in February 2017, he carefully guided me through a appropriate rehab program. Thus far have avoided the risk of trying to do too much too soon or the opposite not doing enough. I found Dan to be very qualified in dealing with all issues of post surgery rehab. Most beneficial to me was being able to discuss activities that I may be doing and making sure I was at the appropriate level for my condition at that time.

My doctor gave me a list of 50+ names for physical therapy. I randomly selected the closest to my home, Dan List at James River Physical Therapy. Best decision I ever made because Dan was so intuitive about my problem, got me started on exercise right away and to make a long story short I was CURED! LATER ON I GOT ANOTHER RX FOR THREAPY FROM MY Orthopedic Dr. and they gave me a list of therapists and I said keep it, I HAVE DAN LIST AND THAT IS ALL I NEED. Thanks Dan, Charley Webber

I have worked with Dan on several issues during my running days, most recently he managed my recovery from total hip replacement surgery. Dan is an excellent listener and observer. He listened to my comments about my activities and carefully observed movements before outlining next steps in therapy. His ability to explain and demonstrate exercises is excellent. This really helped me recover much faster than I anticipated and my surgeon was quite pleased with our results.

Our family enjoys visiting Dan at his office, except for the fact that were having a problem! Dan spends time with me and really tries to get to the bottom of the problem and understand the athletes needs. He has helped me and my daughter, who is a dancer, with various issues over time. He also tries to work us in as soon as possible, which we really appreciate. We so prefer going to Dan, rather than to the big ortho places.

I had left achilles tendon surgery when I went to JRPT. Dan and his staff made me feel welcome and said they would have me walking again soon. Dan gave me exercises that helped stretch the tendon at the office and that I could do at home, and with much encouragement. Dan also worked with my personal trainer on what exercises would help. Today was my last trip to JRPT and Ill miss Dan and Debbie and their help.

James River Physical Therapy has helped me recover from injuries sustained in multiple car and motorcycle wrecks. After therapy I came back stronger and wiser than before because they gave me the tools I need to stay healthy and continue an active lifestyle. If you are willing to follow instructions and put in the work you will recover with the help from James River Physical Therapy.

I worked with Dan to improve my tendonitis both before and after wrist surgery. He is very willing to answer questions and tried multiple strategies to promote healing. He also made sure to understand my performance goals, and did everything in his power to help me reach them. I would definitely recommend James River Physical Therapy and return for any future PT needs.

James River Physical Therapys location and hours were what initially drew me to Dan List as a physical therapist. He also got a big thumbs up from another physical therapist friend of mine. Dan helped me address persistent shoulder pain through a targeted plan of strengthening and range of motion exercises. I highly recommend his services to others.
