Patient Testimonials

Siiri is fantastic

Siiri is a fantastic therapist and has helped me get going again many times over the years. She gets right to the root of the problem/pain and helps teach you how to work with her to resolve the issue.

Hip replacement surgery recovery

Lisa K at Focus PT has gotten me through hip replacement surgery recovery. I loved having her as my PT! She pushed me to get stronger, more mobile and balanced but never pushed me into pain. She’s got a ton of knowledge and a lovely personality.

I would recommend John Center to any athlete…

I’m a skier, whitewater kayaker, and gym rat. Issues with mid-back and hip tension stopped me from performing compound movements at the gym, like squats and deadlifts, for over six years.
After working with multiple physical therapists, John Center is the first one to successfully work with me to achieve a return to the movements I love doing at the gym. In addition, my back issues are much better managed and mitigated when I do the outdoor sports that I love. I can enjoy all my sports with more confidence now while pushing myself hard.
I would recommend John Center to any athlete who wants to do the things they love at a high level.

I LOVE Siiri

I LOVE Siiri – over 10 years with a curious and constantly developing PT has been, literally, life-changing for me. I am so grateful for 7 am appointment. I will be healthy into old age because of Siiri. I love the service and support provided by Focus and the personalized care Siiri provides. Extra bonus points for Dilly Dally coffee handy at 8 am after my morning appointments. Luxury!
