This is my first time using Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine in Essex. Everyone is super nice! The main reason I chose this group is because they work with you one on one. So many other places I have been to give you exercises to do on your own and then you don't see them. I felt like I was part of the herd. So I would highly recommend this group. At 77 years old and in therapy for a total knee replacement I knew this was the right place for me. You will be happy with this group if you ever need physical therapy. I would give them 10 stars if I could!!

I can't say enough about Craig, Mac, and crew. I incurred a severe strain of the MCL in my right knee. I was on crutches & in pain. After a few weeks they got me out of pain and almost back to normal. They are accommodating with scheduling, very knowledgeable, work together extremely well, and are always smiling.

The facility itself is very accessible, with plenty of parking. Check in is easy, with little waiting. The therapy area is large and open and kept very clean. Perhaps what’s most important is the quality and attentiveness of the experienced staff, who work well together as a cohesive and friendly team, and are positive and encouraging to their patients.

"Great, committed therapists. Thank you." I wrote the above review a long time ago, before I was fully able to determine the effects of my sessions. Time has gone by, and now I can say with happiness and gratitude that the issues that seemed completely insurmountable at the time are now almost a distant memory—I am barely aware of the painful knee issues that took me to PTSM in the beginning. I can only imagine the number of other happy patients that pass through their caring, professional hands, who have also improved their lives. A BIG thank you to Craig Katco and the ENTIRE staff that helped me see the path to recovery.

I came for Physical Therapy because of a knee problem. After consultation with Ann Hall PT, she said that it was not my knee, it was my hip. After many stretching exercises I no longer have knee pain at night. At her suggestion I will be making an appointment with a hip Doctor.

I used this facility to recuperate from two knee replacements 4 months apart. Jules is extremely professional and I felt that I could trust her knowledge and plan for my program. The atmosphere is busy but positive and accommodating. I would not hesitate to recommend physical therapy at this location.
