Testimonials
“Taylor is an experienced physical therapist who has mastered the art of executing a professional and a personal approach to his therapy.” - J.G.
“Over the years, I have had other programs of PT. This is the first time that I feel I have had a permanent benefit.” - R.H.
“I had surgery on my left shoulder. Almost exactly 4 months after surgery, I was back on the golf course. Working with Taylor was a very positive experience.” - L.H.
"Having a knee that has sustained multiple injuries and surgeries, I have seen other physical therapists in the past, and none can be compared to Rob. I find his knowledge, expertise, and personal nature above the rest. In my opinion he is truly one of the BEST." - S.C.
"Our family has had a wonderful experience with Rob and Taylor at Taylor Physical Therapy. Rob helped me through my bout with Frozen Shoulder. Even during my first telephone call with him, I was impressed with how much he knew about my condition and how to help me. In the following weeks he showed a real concern and determination to help me regain the mobility I had lost in my arm.
My 12 year old son saw both Taylor and Rob for an injured heel. They knew exactly what to do to make him feel better quickly and he was motivated to follow the home exercise program they set up for him. In working with each of them I always felt that we were getting the best possible treatment available, not only because of their experience and expertise, but also because of their dedication to their patients. I recommend them to all of my friends and my doctors." - W.C.
I am glad to have the chance to pass on my thoughts about Taylor Physical Therapy. During the past two years, I have consulted two internists and then a physiatrist about pain in my lower back and leg. Each performed certain diagnostic tests, certain procedures in the case of the latter (spinal and then SI joint injections) and then had me see a physical therapist as part of my plan to strengthen muscles and reduce pain. Without a doubt, my sessions with Taylor at Taylor Physical Therapy were the most successful.
I have been impressed with several aspects of my treatment with Taylor:
- He maintains close communication with my doctor, through conversations as well as reading the papers that came with me…I feel that he is carrying out closely the needs that have been set out by the physician and is ready to change what he does with me as my condition evolves.
- He communicates with me as a patient in a very effective manner, both during the office visits, and with follow-up emails that convey images that fully describe exercises. Any questions I send to him by email are answered very quickly and clearly and in a friendly manner.
- He explains very clearly the purpose of each exercise or stretch that he teaches and wants me to carry out at home
- I understand much better after his sessions what I am doing and why and the importance of it. This is very motivating and I have found it much easier to follow the regimen I have been assigned
- My improvement in the amount of pain I have with various activities is noticeable. Taylor has given me strategies to employ when in situations that have been difficult before. They seem to work.
- Billing of my two insurance carriers is handled professionally and in a timely manner with no other necessary intervention on our part…not always the case.
- During each session, Taylor controls personally the exercises, stretching and massage of pain trigger points…one of the benefits of a smaller operation I believe is this continuity of service. In another of the offices where I was treated, in Palo Alto, I met with the therapist at the beginning and sometimes at the end of each session, but in between, I was passed among a series of assistants who were more or less familiar with my situation and needs, and with varying levels of training. Some of the exercises they proposed I do were not suitable and I had to state that I could not carry them out. This therapy was not as targeted and not as successful as that I have been undergoing at Taylor Physical Therapy.
- Taylor seems extremely knowledgeable and is able to convey to the lay person/patient at an understandable level what is going on with his/her body and how the therapy will proceed. This communication is so very important and has not been present at other physical therapy offices where I have been a patient.
- A last point I’d make is that Taylor’s totally professional but friendly manner is very reassuring and comfortable for patients.
