I highly recommend the Summit Physical Therapy team. I have seen Lisa for a painful neck spasm and she did an amazing job in helping me to recover. She is very thorough and knowledgable and the rest of the staff is so helpful and friendly. Everyone there is professional and welcoming. I won't hesitate to call them again if needed.

SUMMIT Physical Therapy is a very professional expert facility. Over the past years they have sucessfully had remedies and excercises for my knees and back. I just was with Mark for my knee and he helped the pain and gave me a plan to excercise at home. I am always very pleased with what they can do.

Paul was great! He not only cured my tennis elbow, but also gave me a bunch of exercises to prevent it from happening again. He educated me about the reasons why I was injured. His instructions were clear and easy to follow. He was encouraging and supportive but still pushed me. I highly recommend Summit PT.

I was dealing with a lingering/annoying pain in my neck so I made an appointment with Paul. He did a great job of finding the root of the problem and explaining it to me. I’m one who gets a little nervous when it comes to cracking the neck and back so he went about it in a way that was very comfortable for me. After unlocking some parts of my mid back I was already feeling a lot better. Highly recommend coming to see Paul!

I have used Summit Physical Therapy for various injuries and surgery’s I’ve had over the last 18 years and their service has been impeccable every time. The PT staff headed by Rob are extremely professional, empathetic, friendly, encouraging and most importantly excellent at what they do best, rehabilitate you.
In addition their administration staff are great at navigating through all the medical coverage issues that always arise with the insurance companies.

L highly recommend Paul Coviello at Summit Physical Therapy. Both my daughter and l have had very successful recoveries thanks to the Paul’s approach on educating and finding practical ways of building strength exercises into our daily routine. Paul is also very easy to connect with both for adults and kids.

I have had 2 great experiences with Summit PT. A few years ago Rob helped me rehab post ACL surgery and just recently Jessie helped me get over a hip injury. Jessie did a great assessment and tailored exercises to my injury. I am back running and playing tennis pain free. I highly recommend Summit PT (and Rob and Jessie are excellent!).

My son had a Nuss Procedure and needed PT with a specific protocol for several months. Paul worked with him and his recovery was excellent. Paul is professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He encouraged my son during the whole process making him work hard but with a positive attitude. The front desk is also great. They're helpful and courteous.

Summit PT is a great place. Everyone is friendly. And Paul truly has been life changing for me. I have tried other places and have done PT for last 2 years for my knee, with no results. After giving up hope that I will be able to resume my gym activities, which were completely stalled from the pain, I am back to my original fitness levels. Paul has helped me understand in a very easy manner how I should be taking care of my knees going forward without having to quit running or a particular workout. He has given me the confidence that I was lacking in achieving my health goals.

I recently had a hip resurfacing. As I am in my mid forties it was important for me to not only return to activities of daily living, but also regain the active lifestyle that I had been missing for a number of years.
Paul Coviello was my physical therapist, and I could not have been more pleased with the results. Paul employed innovative techniques to improve my strength and balance. As I became proficient in each activity, he would modify the movement to further strengthen the hip area. Paul is personable and caring, i looked forward to our sessions.
The quality and care you will receive from

Brett, my therapist, was great from day one. I tore my calf muscle in two places and wasn't quite sure what my path to recovery was going to be. I'm on week two of PT and I now see the light at the end of the tunnel.
My ortho had told me about my injury, but didn't explain it the way Brett has. I now know what I actually did to myself and what I need to do to get better.
He has been very patient with me. I didn't want to do PT and didn't care for any of he exercises I have to do at home. I'm a runner who wants to get back to running my 3 miles a day. But, as Brett
