    I have been going to Terry for almost 3 years now. I am a college soccer player, and I came in with my first torn ACL about 3 months post op frustrated with the speed that my recovery was going. Once I began seeing Terry, I finally felt my knee getting stronger, and saw the light at the end of the tunnel. Terry gives a type of care that is different than any other physical therapists I have been to. His work is hands on when you are with him, and he gives videos and exercises to do on your own that truly work like magic. I was back from my first ACL in about 6 months, with no pain, and a strong knee that I would have never gotten without the tremendous work of Terry! I am so grateful for everything he has done, and continues to do for me!

    Terry is incredibly gifted and dedicated to his clients. My daughter tore her ACL (on her left knee) during her junior year of high school. Initially, she was referred to another PT center. She quickly grew frustrated with her recovery process. Being on track to play college soccer, the timing of the injury was awful. In speaking with a friend, she referred Terry to us and said "Over the years, I have seen many PTs and there is no one like Terry". After session one with Terry, my daughter was blown away. He not only spoke to her about a treatment plan to get her back on the field- he also took the time to explain the mechanics and how to prevent this from happening again. When we went to the doctor for a follow up, he was completely taken aback by her progress- In fact- he said he had never seen anything like it, and to keep doing what she was doing! I have since referred Terry to several people and everyone says the thing. He is the best- and we are so, so grateful!

    I highly recommend Terry for your physical therapy needs! I fractured my tibia and fibula in July. It required surgery and I had to spend 1 week in Albany Trauma hospital. As an NPC fitness/gymnastics competitor this was a shocking injury. I started seeing Terry. In the beginning I couldn’t even walk. I had to spend a lot of time rehabbing my leg. Terry is passionate about what he does, extremely knowledgeable, and always encouraging. He is amazing at what he does and he pushed me to keeping moving forward with my rehab. I am grateful to be working with Terry.

    I have been rehabbing an old Acl tear with Terry for a year now, and he has been a life saver. Prior to seeing him, I experienced 7 years of daily chronic pain from simple activities like walking up and down stairs and being seated for long periods of time. Despite the pain, I exercised regularly, which only exacerbated my issues, leading to inflammation post exercise and a meniscal tear as well. After years of ineffective treatment with other physical therapists, I pretty much gave up on my knee, until I met Terry. My orthopedist did not think that I had a new meniscal tear, but Terry was able to properly diagnose my condition, which was later confirmed through an MRI.I finally have increased mobility and strength, and exercise regularly with little to no knee pain. He is extremely knowledgeable about the mechanics of the body, and equips his patients with this same knowledge, providing them with a regimented at home routine to help speed up the recovery process. He is extremely dedicated to his craft, and does everything to ensure that his clients are successful in their recovery. Not to mention, he is very personable and encouraging, which makes the whole physical therapy process less daunting. I am beyond grateful to have him as my therapist, and I only wish that I had met him sooner!

    After my second child I was in need of a Pelvic Floor Therapist for chronic pain and limited range of motion. Terry has been incredible with assessing where my pelvic floor issues were and working on them. Within a week, doing the stretches and exercises he provided I was able to walk normal again and brought my pelvic pain down immensely. I wish I saw him sooner than 5 months post-partum but I'm so glad I have him as my PT now!

    After 8 years of suffering with extreme daily pain and sleepless nights due to intense nerve pain radiating down my neck and arms, after countless visits to neurologists, rheumatologists, and other doctors, after MRI’s, nerve blockers, and steroids, I FINALLY found relief from the methods employed by Terry after just 4 weeks of treatment. The Eldoa method and exercises/stretches that Terry taught me to do at home, on my own time, specifically targeted problem areas that I had been dealing with for years. I honestly thought this would be a life long problem for me but after just weeks of treatment I have found relief from the intense pain that has been plaguing my daily life, and preventing me from getting the nightly sleep I have so desperately needed. THANK YOU Terry for finally providing me with a solution and a cure to my chronic condition!

    I've been treating with Terry for 5 years. When I first came to Terry I had been experiencing debilitating back pain from avid golfing. Not only has Terry helped alleviate my pain thru pumping of the spine and neck, he has helped build a training program to get stronger and play better golf. Finally, he has also guided me in the practice of Eldoa to help give me the tools necessary to prevent injury in the future. He is without question the best PT I have ever treated with.

    I am a collegiate tennis player from the University of Louisville. I started working with Terry after I had surgery on my elbow about 2 years ago and have worked with him every since. He has helped me so much, from working through injuries to correcting imbalances in my body and making me strong again. He always makes sure I fully understand any strengthening/stretches/Eldoas he gives me and takes videos of the proper technique so I can have it with me when I go back to school. He is flexible and is always willing to work with me whenever I need it. I Don't know if I would be in one piece without him!!

    I have had 2 herniated disks in lower back for 20 years and unrelenting Sciatica in one leg for 18 months. I am a competitive golfer so rehabbing a back injury while golfing is not easy. In the 6 months prior to finding Terry I had 60 sessions of traction, 3 epidural injections and a Piriformis injection, and countless sessions of P/T and Chiropractic treatments. None brought any relief. After finding Terry and dedicating to the ELDOA stretches and revamping all training, I can happily say within 2 months I started to see relief and within 4 months the Sciatica was gone. If you aren't willing to put in the time to do work on what Terry teaches, it may not be for you. But if you are, I have been to numerous PTs and Dr's and nothing has helped my spine issue like Terrys treatments and the stretches he has taught me.UPDATE - 7/10/18My life is back. I played Bethpage Black 3 times this week after not being able to walk a round of golf for 2 years. If you don’t put in the time and learn what you need to do on your own, results will suffer. If you see Terry regularly, and do your work each day for a few minutes, even long term issues can be fixed. I am out of pain :)

    Terry is amazing! I came to him with a frozen shoulder and within a few weeks my pain had decreased and my range of motion is nearly fully returned. He is professional, knowledgeable and patient. He works with you and teaches you the stretches with photographic/video aids so that you can take them home with you. I am very pleased with my progress and highly recommend!
