WESTCOTT Physical Therapy

This review is long overdue :( I did PT at Westcott on and off almost three years between 2016-2019 to help with upper body issues and to recover from a bad car accident. My daughter attended PT sessions at this clinic as well for lower body and neck and shoulder issues. Trisha helped me to recover from my auto accident and subsequent reaggravation injury from a bad Uber ride and the owner Lance was wonderful about billing arrangements since I had to both pay through my health insurance company at the time and through my auto insurance companies medical payments coverage. I would so recommend

After 2 years of back pain, I went to my doctor and he recommended physical therapy. Westcott was one of two places he recommended. Was he ever right!
The staff is amazing, and my Physical Therapist Maggie was outstanding. She took time to understand exactly what was going on and then quickly isolated the cause of the pain. Then she gave me a series of stretches to improve it.
As I improved each week, the pain would often move to a new source and Maggie would explain why that was happening and then assign some incremental stretches which worked.
She also took the time to teach me good sitting

I have been coming to Westcott for several months after throwing out my back. It is a smaller business and has a mom-and-pop store vibe compared to bigger box physical therapy places I have been to with dedicated billing departments, etc. The front desk/billing/management are all fine, but the most extraordinary feature is one of the therapists I have been working with - Jillian. I am a medical professional myself and have worked personally and professionally with other physical therapists. Jillian has something that can't be taught- she has that "it factor" where I don&apos

14 year old daughter came here after ACL. Trisha made her feel very comfortable to the point where my daughter actually looked forward to going to therapy.
Trisha was VERY accommodating especially since we wanted to get in as many therapy sessions as possible and speed up the recovery.
Highly recommend Trisha

I came to Wescott because of a hamstring injury and was amazed at how quickly I improved with Trisha's treatment. All of the staff with whom I have interacted have been very friendly and accommodating.

My baby has been diagnosed with low muscle tone and therefore was unable to meet her gross motor milestone.
My pediatrician recommended this place and I am really happy with the services at westcott.

Chris (my baby's therapist) is very approachable , innovative and very meticulous in her approach. She makes it a point to discuss the activities done in the session and also gives a to do list to be done at home .

Within a span of 3 months my baby has made humongous amount of progress. She is trying to crawl , she stands on her own and is much more physically active .

A big thumbs up

I've been going to Westcott for a few months now to get work done on my hip and arm, and I'm in awe of Trisha.

She's delivered great results using creative approaches and is always ready with a new idea with something isn't working. She seems to have an endless supply of different techniques she can apply and an amazing knowledge of how the body works. In fact, It's entirely possible that I've learned more about how my muscles and joints function from chatting with her over the past few months than in my lifetime leading up to this.

Plus, she's always

Currently bringing my 8 month old son here for gross motor delay. Found the place just from calling all the offices in the area. This is the only one I found with Aetna Insurance!

It all worked out great because his PT is great and my son is thriving! She is friendly, my son never cried, and we learned a lot of ways to encourage him to catch up.

Very nice staff. Sara is so sweet and proficient. Clean and comfortable with a cool nice little area for children needing therapy. Lance was very professional in dealing with an insurance issue. I'll be back once my insurance covers it.

Have been seeing Lance Westcott for 4 months with over a dozen appointments to treat a herniated disc. Lance is a skilled and very personable PT who will take you through the exercises and make you feel comfortable and at ease. The recovery took time but I did see results and excellent improvement. Lance is flexible and very happy to tailor the 40 min sessions to your needs. Often we would go through exercises and he would teach me how to do the exercises at home, by taking photos/video with my phone for me to reference later. This is a great way to save on costs.

One key difference with

I have been going to Westcott PT twice a week for about 3 years. I have a very rare, degenerative neurological condition. I had been turned away from other physical therapy clinics in the past because I was told that there was nothing they could do, but Lance was willing to work with me to see how we could manage my condition to try and offset any further deterioration.

Unfortunately I had high hopes after reading the other reviews but was very disappointed w my experience. I was told the initial eval would be 40 min and $150. Although rather pricey, gave it a shot. The visit was 29 minutes with 5-7 min "eval" and 20 min massage. No real advice about home exercises or valuable input. All in all a wasted $150. Getting info was like pulling teeth from the therapist...def not what I expected. Tried a different place...so much happier!

After reviewing my previous post, I realized I was so focused on the awesomeness of this establishment that I didn't share my personal journey and challenge.

I fractured my shoulder last year from a bad fall in a grocery store. I was referred to Westcott Physical Therapy by Dr. Warren King (awesome surgeon, repaired my soccer daughter's ACL) for therapy in the hopes of avoiding surgery. Well, as of this writing we are approximately 5 months into therapy and I can confidently say my shoulder mobility has gone from non-existent to almost full range of motion. I cannot say enough great

I went to Westcott Physical Therapy for close to a year. Everyone is very friendly and down to earth and they make you feel very welcome. I was originally referred here for bursitis in the hip, but after working with me a couple of times, Abha felt there was more to my pain, as well as believing that my back was somehow also involved. She suggested an MRI. I ended up with 2 MRIs, one showing a labral tear in my hip, and the other showing 2 protruding discs in my lower back. I was very impressed with Abha's keen ability to detect these things and to point me onto the right path.

Due to her

I came to Westcott for physical therapy related to lower back pain after seeing a spine specialist at Stanford.

I received fantastic care from Abha over a lengthy period of time. While my back pain was not "cured", we made a great deal of progress by combining ultrasound, manual therapy, and building out a challenging program of core strengthening and stabilization exercises. Abha was excellent and constantly updating the exercises both during our sessions and my home program, to make sure they were challenging enough to promote continued improvement.

Additionally she did a wonderful

I have received excellent care at Westcott PT. The physical therapists are well trained and professional. Sarah is always on schedule and provides individualized attention throughout my entire treatment. She and Lance have a great report with their patients. The office staff made sure I was well aware of my out of pocket expenses, so there haven't been any billing surprises. I would highly recommend my friends and family to Westcott PT. I am a physical therapist myself and and will happily refer patients here.

I have a neurological disease. It happens that Westcott PT is one of the few out-patient PT providers with knowledge about how to deal with it. They are much more personal than the cold PT chains where you're with an unfamiliar therapist each time.

The staff is very friendly and flexible; they also seem accommodating regarding handling your billing for your medical insurance carrier. They've relocate to a newer setting on 2nd St near Main Street, still in the midst of downtown Los Altos formerly the location of the Los Altos Coffee Shop).

Yes, I am a customer (only) with no financial

I am Westcott Physical Therapy's biggest fan!!! Lance helped me to recover from a "world class" (my dr.'s words) ankle sprain. He used many different types of therapy to aid my recovery. He really listened to me and cared about how I was doing. He set realistic goals and worked with me to achieve them. I have since spoken about him so much a couple of my friends have gone to see him and have experienced the same level of care. Westcott Physical Therapy is by far the best!

Awesome staff, I felt comfortable and welcome each of my visits. Lance does a great job educating you about your body and helping you not only heal but prevent future injuries!
