If there's any way in which you're trying to recover or improve - more strength, more speed, faster recovery, more stamina, better functionality - really anything, Dr. Uchenna is going to be a perfect fit. I have heard her talk about the recovery regimen of a semi-professional badminton player with as much excitement as she uses to discuss the rising high-school sports stars she's training. She really, really cares about each and every client she takes on, and is always thinking up new and innovative ways to both help them, and push them. The level of quality and attention

Dr. Onyia is beyond 5 star! My son plays football & injured his hip & hamstring two years ago. We have been to numerous doctors, physical therapists & chiropractics prior to seeing Dr. Onyia. She told me she specialized in youth sports recovery & let me tell you she did not lie. She gave me a timeframe & she delivered! I wish we would’ve know about her sooner. After being in pain for years my son is finally fully recovered! Dr. Onyia is the truth!!!

Uchenna was truly amazing. After a full year of pain from a broken shoulder and unsuccessful visits to a cookie-cutter clinic she was able to relieve my muscle and joint restrictions with intense massage and customized physical therapy. She quickly evaluated my limitations and freed up the knotted areas for deep and prolonged relief. I’m so grateful to have found her. I feel like I have a new friend and really enjoyed our sessions on a personal level too. Who else can say the love PT lol. Thank you Uchenna!! You are a rock star!!

Dr Uchenna was fantastic. I had never been to physical therapy and was immediately at ease with her. She put together an effective treatment plan, combined easygoing warmth and professional service, and was very flexible with me when life got in the way of appointments. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a physical therapist.

I wish I could give 100 stars! Optimum Physical Therapy changed my life. From the start Dr Onyia was professional and helpful with communication. In my 7 months of treatment with her she was always very educated, friendly and goal focused. She is also very positive and involved with all progress. I would recommend her to anyone needing this service!

Dr. Uchenna Onyia is the best physical therapist ever. She took care of my mum in 2019 when she had her bilateral knee replacements. She was so caring and patient with my mum. My mum looked forward to her therapy sessions. My mum is back on her feet without the use a walker or cane.
I also had therapy sessions with her for plantar fasciitis. I am also pain free now. I highly recommend Dr. Onyia for your PT needs.

Dr. Onyia is the best! I went to her for lower back issues. Her assessment was very thorough and her treatment plan spot on. She listened and created a physical therapy plan that helped me become pain-free! She is the only physical therapist I have ever been to who has helped me get these kind of great results! I highly recommend Dr. Onyia!!!

I highly recommend Dr Uchenna. She is patient, gentle and professional. Before I saw her, I could barely move my arm but now I can use it fully. She has been a blessing! Thank you for all you do.
