Our Reviews

Opinions That Matter The Most
  • “I would truly recommend to anyone”
    I have been going to Physical Therapy at the East Brunswick location for 6 weeks and I must say they are extremely helpful. Dr. Sarah is amazing as well as the staff. They treat you as if you are family, which makes the entire treatment pleasant. Ms. Josephine always works around your schedule, which is so convenient. I would truly recommend this location to anyone.

    Dr. George Eskander worked rehabilitation with me for 6 weeks. He is professional, has a wonderful bed-side manner and it was a great experience. I would recommend the services of ProFysio.

  • “Not only do you get Professional care, but the staff make you feel like family”
    I had total knee replacement.The care and attention I receive from physical therapists Anthony and assistant Christian was excellent. They pushed me to get to where I had to be in a very caring way. The staff was excellent starting with Lynn, Tess, Amanda and Phill. The facility is COVID compliant and very clean with all the latest equipment. My two son have been to Profysio in the past with sport injuries and they got them back on the basketball court and football field sooner than expected. As a retired Deputy Chief of the Fire Department I totally recommend Profysio

  • “Wonderful and Patient”
    If I could give 10000 stars, I would! I have been seen Dr. George and Dr. Jenni at ProFysio for the past six weeks or so. Dr. George and Jenni go out of their way to make sure that I am comfortable and have all of my questions answered. They are lovely to speak with at every appointment. I had a wonderful, and warm experience from start to finish. ProFysio is the place for those who wanted to be free of chronic pains and live a healthy life.
