I am in need of a shoulder replacement but cannot have surgery. My doctor recommended physical therapy in order to help my range of motion as well as minimize the pain. I’ve been seeing Ernie Santoro regularly for 6 months now and he has made a huge difference in my quality of life.
He is incredibly knowledgeable as well as kind and patient. I could have chosen a physical therapy practice that is closer to home but he is worth the travel time. I would not go anywhere else. Ernie came highly recommended to me and I in turn, highly recommend him and his practice.

I consulted with Dr. Santoro about an issue I was having with my neck. He correctly diagnosed it (confirmed by xrays) which turned out to be caused by bad posture - me looking at my phone too much. I live out of state and could not receive care from him, but with his recommendation, he ensued I received fair and honest care from my local PT. I was impressed he diagnosed my issue and also knew what types of exercises would be recommended.

I would highly recommend Achieve Therapy, and specifically Chandler Eckert, DPT. I typically have always thought of physical therapy as something you go to after surgery or for a sports injury. However, I decided to try PT after having a low back pain that wouldn't go away. In just 4 weeks, I was able to work out without the pain. I am so thankful for the service offered at Achieve Therapy with their wholistic approach and one-on-one targeted therapy. Everyone was extremely nice and professional. As well, the facility was clean, well equipped and had locker rooms so you could change after work
