What Our Patients Are Saying
Karen M.
Thank you CJ! You helped me tremendously. After 2 1/2 months of PT I could't believe how strong my foot was becoming. I have a partial tear in my PTT and CJ helped me with my recovery. I would definitely recommend Prolete Physical Therapy. I give them 5 stars!
Katie S.
5 stars go to Prolete PT once again! I've been coming here for over a decade for all of my sports injuries and continue to be impressed by the high level of care and overall great vibe of this practice. CJ rehabbed my hip after surgery to repair a labral tear from a weightlifting injury and I couldn't have been happier with my road to recovery (and back to weightlifting, and soon to snowboarding!). He is super knowledgable, personable, and patient and I knew right from the start I was in good hands. The Prolete team is top notch and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of PT! Thank you all so much for such a positive experience!
Peter H.
Absolute great experience! I had 3 months of PT. For a right knee replacement and I was very happy with Prolete! Everyone I interacted with were professional and very knowledgeable! I am happy I went there and when I get my other knee replaced, I will be going back again!
Charlotte P.
I could not have gotten through my pregnancy without the help of Helena. I want to thank her for her kindness, empathy, knowledge, professionalism and overall dedication to the work that she does for women like myself. She completely prepared me for birth and I felt so much more at ease during my delivery knowing all the prep work that we did together leading up to the birth of my son. I would highly recommend her during any stage of pregnancy and into postpartum for help with strengthening the pelvic floor and whole body preparedness. Thank you Helena!
Carolyn B.
Prolete is by far the most professional Physical Therapy Center I have ever visited. Dr. Brian was well informed and both generous and patient as he explained the problem and his recommendation for a resolution. I left with a comprehensive plan of action steps I could take at home and a clear sense of direction for future visits. I feel confident that I will correct the plantar fasciitis with the help of Prolete. I would highly recommend Prolete to anyone who wants real science based attention.

Helena and Lindsay were exceptional, professional, and between the two of them got my new knee in great shape for the summer! I can’t thank them enough for their help in this journey.

this review is long overdue!! i did PT at prolete for about six months to manage extremely painful plantar fasciitis that was so bad it was throwing off my entire body. Prolete helped me sooo much in healing & rehabilitating my plantar fasciitis. Lindsay & CJ are amazing. as well as Wendy & Trudy Ann (sorry if I spelled that wrong!!) at the front desk. they truly care about their patients & it’s a really warm and welcoming space. highly recommend!!!
