  My daughter suffered an ACL tear in May of 2024, and we were so fortunate to have worked with Dr. Nick. Thanks to his incredible guidance, she was back to playing volleyball just six months post-surgery. She was also able to go through the recruiting process and now will be playing volleyball her next four years at college. We can honestly say that without Dr. Nick, she would not be where she is today. Dr. Nick is an incredibly knowledgeable physical therapist who truly understands the demands of high-level sports rehab. From day one, he designed a targeted, progressive program that pushed my daughter safely while rebuilding her strength and confidence.What sets Dr. Nick apart is his dedication. He never rushed through a session; instead, he took the time to listen to concerns, explain the "why" behind every exercise, and ensure her form was perfect to prevent future injuries. His patience and encouragement kept her motivated through the toughest days of recovery.If you are an athlete

  Dr. Nick is truly the best! We were so fortunate to come to him for my daughter's ACL rehab. He is incredibly thorough, very knowledgeable, extremely supportive to his athletes and an all-around great guy. He was amazing with my daughter and she actually really looked forward to going to him several times a week and they formed a great bond. He truly rebuilt her knee and allowed her to come back from an ACL tear junior year to being a first team all-state athlete her first season back senior year. He employs so many different methodologies and pushes the athletes when they need to be pushed and knows when to pull back and support in other ways. We credit so much of her strong recovery to the work that he did with her. Our family does not have enough good things to say about him both as a person and Dr. and you will not be disappointed if you are fortunate enough to work with him!

  Dr. Nick is an intuitive and masterful PT. He always listens carefully and responds quickly to questions or concerns. I've appreciated how thoughtful and attentive he is throughout the rehab process. He takes the time to explain what he's seeing, adjusts treatment when needed, and creates a calm, confident environment that makes you feel like you're in good hands. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate physical therapist.

  If you are an athlete or someone who's looking to fully get back to athletics and fitness this is the place for you! As an NCAA academic All American in track and field athlete with retirement looming around the corner, I could not have made it through my career without Nick's help. I first came to him as a senior in high school looking for someone who knew anything about how to treat my injury. A couple months prior to my first visit, I went through about five PT's who all told me the same thing -- stretch , heat, ice, foam-roll and I'll feel better. With every session I left with more pain and less confidence that I would compete again. However, that wasn't the case when I began working with Dr. Nick. We addressed movement quality, biomechanics, breath work, nervous system control, strength and robustness. Through 10 weeks of consistency and hard work I was finally able to leave a year's worth of pain and frustration behind me. Nick's knowledge and dedication to my rehab helped me re

  As someone who has been in nine PT clinics between being a patient, volunteer, and PT student, I have seen physical therapy done in lots of ways. When observing with Nick, I found that the individualization and attention to detail that he provides is exceptional. It is always clear in his communication, session structure, and in the rehab programs he designs that you are his priority, as if you are the only patient on his schedule. I spent 18 years as a gymnast, continuing my career throughout college in the NCAA. When it came time to needing PT during my college career and beyond, I did not hesitate to reach out to Nick after seeing firsthand the results patients achieved with him. He provided the high level care I needed and designed effective programs under the time constraints I had with being a college athlete (& later a grad student) only home for select periods at a time. As an athlete, I also appreciated the ever-changing exercise programs that were fun, challenging, and benefi

  It's rare to find a physical therapist who delivers such exceptional care and consistently outstanding results. Dr. Nick has been great to me and my family. I initially sought treatment for significant neck pain in the weeks leading up to my wedding, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the very first session, he took the time to thoroughly understand my condition, explain the root cause of the discomfort, and create a targeted, effective treatment plan. Not only did he relieve my pain, but he also gave me practical exercises and guidance that kept me feeling strong and confident on such an important day. What truly sets him apart is the consistent level of care and expertise he brings to every patient. I've also seen firsthand the incredible impact he had on my uncle's recovery after double knee meniscus surgeries. Thanks to his dedication and skill, he was able to regain mobility and ultimately walk pain-free again--something that felt uncertain at the start of his reco
