What Patients Have to Say


  • "I went to Dan with a nagging hip injury that sidelined my ultramarathon training. I tried other PTs in the area that couldn’t quite pinpoint the source of my problems. He quickly identified the issue and provided a range of personalized techniques to get me back on track."
    Seth B.
  • "Fantastic care from fantastic people! I would recommend Spencer Physical Therapy to anyone who is in need…Jeanette did a fantastic job at coordinating my appointments and working around my schedule."
    Angie E.
  • "I had significant arm pain from tennis elbow that had been ongoing for almost 2 years. I went to a number of doctors and such, but they only offered minimal help. After a month and a half I was done with treatment, pain gone, and have had full use of that arm since."
    Justin M.
