TESTIMONIALS

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. However Jennifer’s level of dedication is unsurpassed. The newest addition to the team, Georgiana is equally dedicated. They both worked miracles on me. During my treatment they went above and beyond their responsibilities by showing me ways to improve my posture (was going thereafter foot/toe surgery) and so much more. It has been refreshing and empowering to have them as physical therapists!

– a very satisfied patient

Many thanks to CORE FOCUS and Jennifer for getting me back on my feet after a break to the 5th metatarsal.

– Suzanne Hardy

My experience with CORE FOCUS PHYSICAL THERAPY was nothing short of excellent. Each member of the staff was courteous, respectful and wonderful to be around. At all times I was made to feel at ease and comfortable. My shoulder injury has healed very well and I am able to play softball this summer. I would recommend CORE FOCUS to anyone in need of therapy.

– Arthur C.

Professional workers, excellent environment, and…. I feel LIKE NEW!

This top-notch physical therapy staff respects patient’s concerns and tailors individual treatments with the understanding and awareness that heals the body and also restores the patient’s confidence in their bodies’ abilities.

– Jennifer F.

Their top-notch professional care includes the latest techniques. This allowed me to have a full recovery in a short period of time. Their staff is the friendliest I have seen around, with deep knowledge and understanding of their field.

– Martin Bameule

PT’s at CORE FOCUS know how to fix what hurts. Through a combination of electronics, massage and exercises I was able to feel relief from the very first visit. Style variation between PT’s is minimal but just as effective. I was extremely satisfied with the treatment and have recommended them to my colleagues.

– Kilmar Rivaski

Jen took charge of my recovery and wasted no time. With a firm will, strong hands and a no nonsense approach, in five visits, Jen had my arm moving more than it had in the previous three months. Five more visits and I was seriously on the road to recovery. With hard work and dedication, on my part as well as hers, I’m 100%! Jen and CORE FOCUS PT gave me a PRICELESS gift, the use of my left arm. Thank you CORE FOCUS.

– Hillary Josefsberg

I could not have run the marathon without you. I came in as one of the most inflexible people in the world, unable to run 15 miles and came out with flexibility good enough to run the marathon. Your advice on stretches, sneakers, and the foam were very helpful. You also managed to heal my ankle injury that I suffered playing basketball a month before the marathon.

– Daniel Galperin

I had pain walking and standing. Over the course of time, CORE FOCUS PT has been an integral part of my improvement in walking/standing with less pain. They are knowledgeable, treat clients with genuine care and are accommodating with scheduling. I highly recommend them.

You are not just a patient at CORE FOCUS PT; you are treated as a friend whose condition they personally care about.

– Simcha M. Druck

Going to CORE FOCUS PT for therapy after my knee surgery expedited my recovery while teaching me whole-body awareness, so the injury would not recur. I finally found skilled professionals whose care helped me return to my superdemanding and active life. It doesn’t get better than this! Thank you!!

– Debra Wiley-Hart, Performer & Voice & Acting teacher

What is even more impressive than Jennifer’s knowledge of the human body and rehabilitation techniques is the application of principles used to rectify one’s ailments. It is in Kinesiology where CORE FOCUS PT excels.

– Jared Longhitano

Jennifer is the most talented diagnostician and patient “active listener” I have encountered in my 3+ years of healing.
Jennifer is realistic and gives you genuine goals, challenging your body only when you are ready. Jennifer went directly to my pain and on ‘Day 1’ assumed nothing as she began working on my case from all sides-physical, social, emotional, intellectual.

– Melinda McNeill
