Melissa is so very kind and very knowledgeable and always trying to find the best way to help me
Very knowledgeable and effective physical therapist! After testing the strength in my limbs, she knew exactly what exercises would help me recover from stiffness & soreness after knee replacement surgeries!
She took time to explain things to me and demonstrated what I need to be doing.
Pleasant, knowledgeable and professional!

Great!!
