This is a great place to get the physical therapy you need. They are all so nice and caring about your needs. I especially love that they send an email with a link for all of the exercises you are to do at home along with a video of exactly how to do the exercise. I found this very helpful. I would definitely recommend Alton Physical Therapy.

It is rare to encounter a place of business where everyone from receptionist to owner is enthusiastic about my care and have my best interest at heart. I am being treated for a total left knee replacement and my therapist is Jenny Gargac. She is so personable and knowledgeable and positive. I am sure she we get me to where I need to be! In my opinion Alton Physical Therapy is the place to go. I want to extend thanks to each and everyone of them there!

My physical therapy for a complete knee replacement is being done at Alton Physical Therapy. The success of the this replacement is due in great deal to my physical therapist, Barb Hayes. She has made the recovery so much easier and I am doing well with a few weeks to go. I have been to other physical therapist in the past at other facilities, and Barb is by far a standout in her field. She is kind, caring, knowledgable, and fun, but boy can she make a lady hurt!!! This is the only way to get better....."No pain, No gain". Thanks to Barb and the entire staff at APT. They are all fantastic people
