Dr. Angela Spruill is basically a miracle worker in my book! I suffered a broken sacrum in a very bad fall from a horse nearly 2 years ago. That means that for 2 years I've barely been able to walk without pain, but I've been sucking it up and dealing since I felt grateful just to not be paralyzed. I didn't really think a physical therapist could do much for me, since my previous PT experiences (for other injuries...I play a lot of sports) mainly involved weird exercises that didn't seem to help. Was I ever wrong! Seriously, I'm 6 weeks in to treatment with Dr. Angela, and I had my first pain-free days since 2012 last week. It felt incredible. There really aren't adequate words to describe how it feels to be given a huge chunk of your life back. Dr. Angela listens to all of my concerns and thoughts, and she's a good conversationalist too. Her assistants are all very professional and good at soft tissue work, and the front desk staff is pleasant and helpful. All in all, a great experience. If you're suffering from pain that you think is pretty much permanent, do yourself a favor and at least get an evaluation from Custom. You could be doing yourself the biggest favor of your life! read more

Denise is awesome. She approaches her practice practically and mindfully. Within a half dozen sessions, my pelvic health improved enormously and I had two written and practiced circuits that I could perform at home on alternating days. read more

Called to make an appointment. Ok, I was asked to contact my insurance to see if I needed a prescription. I explain to the individual on the phone that I was in excruciating pain. They said not to worry and to get the information needed for my insurance company. When I called back to explain that I didn't need a prescription and to schedule an appointment, I was told by a different individual that they require a prescription, and aren't scheduling appointments 30 days out. Thanks for nothing. My strong recommendation is do not waste your time here. Their therapists may be fantastic but their customer service is absolute garbage. read more

I love custom physical therapy it's the best in all of Newbury park Thousand Oaks and Westlake Dan is the man!! I wish they didn't stop taking my insurance I can't find a therapist that even comes close to him he has helped me so much with my issues miss them all read more

Awesome office and very knowledgeable staff. Only slight issue I had was making an appointment because they were booked so far in advance but there's a reason so many people want to see them. read more

Above average theropy center. Second time using this location in McCadenville. Friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere, very experienced staff. Had excellent outcome with bad accident,and several surgeries. Thanks to Katy and her staff at Custom Physical Theropy. read more

I've gotten 15 minutes of actual therapy time or less on pretty much every occasion by the owner herself (Angela) no less. To make matters worse, I've waited up to 35 minutes to see her. Most often it would be about 15-20 minutes. To wait that long for so little time with a therapist is disrespectful to the patient. Most of the time will be spent with an aide or on a heating pack. It feels like she books 3-4 patients an hour for herself. After having an aide cause me intense pain one day, I decided to ask the aides who trains them and they said that the senior aides (one of the ones who caused me pain by the way) train the newer aides. Are you kidding me?!? People with no credentials are training other people who have no idea what they're doing?!I highly recommend going elsewhere if you have any desire to heal. I'm kind of surprised by the glowing reviews. read more

I never got results here. The initial evaluation was mostly on a computer and it sucked in my opinion. The Woodland Hills location has terrific office staff but this location has gossipy hens that erroniously told me it would take 2 weeks to get in for my 1st appointment. When I arrived, the wait was long and I had to listen the office staff say bad things about their team members. It made me sick to my stomach. In this economy, so many people would bend over backwards to do these jobs well and with dignity. Too bad these gals are spoiling a good gig read more

Absolutely amazing. Everyone on the staff, from the person who takes your initial call to the aides and therapists, is thoughtful and considerate. They know their stuff! I see Dan for plantar fasciitis therapy and Kelly for pelvic floor therapy - both are incredible, kind, knowledgeable and trust worthy. I wasn't looking forward to PT... until I started going to Custom. Highly recommend. read more

Wifey, who has a connective tissue disease, continues her lucky streak with Custom Physical Therapy, in this case the fantastic DPT Bieta Kia. Her quality of life has improved immensely after seeing Dr Kia regularly. Wifey follows Dr Kia's instructions and they really work - everything from putting a small ball under her back, to getting fascia expertly manipulated by this amazing PT. Today, I dropped off wifey at the facility - she was complaining of serious sciatic pain - I picked her up an hour later and she was disco dancing down the parking lot! Disco dancing! Dr. Kia appears to have expertise in Ehlers-Danlos, which is a relief. HIghly, highly recommended! read more

I have never been to a physical therapist and had always gone to a chiropractor for pain and other issues. I will never go to a chiropractor again. My wife had gone to see Mike a couple of years ago and ranted and raved about what he did for her, so when my shoulder and neck were hurting I thought I would give it a try. I can only say that the results were nothing short of amazing. From the staff at the front desk to all of the assistants, everyone was polite, friendly, and helpful. They seem to actually care about you and your health and treat you the way you would expect from real professionals. Mike took me through a litany of procedures explaining in great detail the why and the how as he searched for the problem. His careful and thorough process started working almost instantly and I am eternally grateful to be able to shank golf balls all over the golf course again. Thanks again guys! read more

I have avoided P.T. since I had a terrible experience at a hand therapy group in T.O. many years ago (had to take vicodin to get through the visit). Seeing Angela Rubino gave me more mobility in my neck and I'm able to open my mouth without it cracking all the time. No vicodin necessary! Just going to my pain tolerance. Aides are very good with massage and cupping and other healing modalities. Patient and kind! Great "vibes" in the office. read more

See all

I have been going there for 3 and a half months. Anna the receptionist is beyond amazing and is extremely accommodating. Lisa the therapist has been very compassionate and understanding of my feelings and very helpful with navigating this physical therapy process. I wont go anywhere else now! To sum it up the staff is incredible and has made this a very pleasurable experience. read more

After three physical therapists, four chiropractors, two acupuncturists, and numerous massage therapists, I had pretty much resigned myself to living with back pain. My problems were chronic enough to interfere with my quality of life, but not "severe" enough for any of my doctors to take seriously. When I first went to Custom, I was expecting the same brushoff treatment, but they actually took me seriously. The physical therapists at Custom see physical therapy not just as a job, but a calling. Their treatment is comprehensive, thorough, and effective. They don't just throw a bunch of exercises at you like most PTs. Everyone on staff is friendly and helpful. After years of back problems, I finally feel great. Highly recommended read more

I don't give 5 stars very often, but Mike Burns deserves more than 5 stars! I have been dealing with extreme pain and musculo-skeletal imbalances for about a year now and started seeing him in October of 2011. Although the underlying problem took forever to diagnose, I couldn't have continued to function without his help. To say that he uses unorthodox methods is an understatement, but the relief I got from his treatment has been a life saver (or rather a quality of life saver). I was pretty much in tears when I saw him for the first time, and now I can get through the day without pain medication on most days. Everyone at the office is wonderful as well and very accommodating. Go Mike! read more

Everyone at CPT is amazing. They really take the time to explain to you what's going on with your body and take time to treat specific issues. They are organized and pay attention to detail. Dan and Holly were my two p.t.'s they both did an awesome job relieving the pain of my injury. read more

Angela and Lisa are life savers! I was having such horrible pregnancy related pelvic issues and literally could barely walk when I first saw Angela. Within a week I was doing so much better and after just a month I felt like myself. Could not recommend this place more - especially if your pregnant! read more

The world of pain management and solutions can be a frightening one. Moreover, there are physical therapy places that treat you like a number-not a person. Mike Burns and his team at Custom Physical Therapy are dedicated, concerned miracle-workers who are determined to get to the root of your pain challenges. Each and every one of the PT assistants are top class, reflecting Mike's vision to take care of the patients through open communication and constant feedback. The practice is run efficiently with a front desk team that will handle administration, calendar and insurance. Don't go on a road to nowhere when you are hurting. Go to your Doctor and ask for a reference to Physical Therapy--and tell your medical pratictioner that you heard that Custom Physical Therapy is someone they want to know. read more

I was referred to Dan at Custom Physical Therapy by many coaches and athletes at my gym. If you need help recovering from an injury, you must see Dan. He helped me recover from a stressed bicep tendon. I feel confident that I can go to Dan with any problem regarding my mechanics. He even helped me through a concussion as well as car accidents. Be warned: you will get homework. But your recovery will be much faster if you actually do it :) Everyone at Custom has been very professional and I've enjoyed working with the many interns and therapists. Also, get a massage by Tom! He is helpful in my recovery from my Crossfit workouts. read more

After having my second rotator cuff surgery, I decided to change a therapist. It was then I discovered a facility Custom Physical Therapy which was close to my home in Canoga Park. Honestly, I didn't have high hope per my past experience with several other PT facilities. I only prayed that I would get a good therapist. After a few sessions, I knew I found the best one, Monica Lesslie, who had training in Ithaca New York. Her soft tissue massage technique was amazing, her hand just gave perfect weight that led to perfect touch. She gave cupping therapy when needed. The exercises she gave were not too hard that gave me incentive to carry on. Whenever I complained ache and pain in other area, she would give me bonus treat. She is very knowledgeable in what she does. Most importantly was that she put her heart and mind in her patients. This review is past due. I am always thankful for knowing her. She deserves my trust. read more

I was referred to Dan at Custom Physical Therapy after a car accident. He put me back together, relieved my chronic pain and explained everything he was doing. Everyone from the front desk to the assistants were caring and concerned. Recommend highly! read more

I have been to Custom Physical Therapy a couple of times over the years for a couple different issues. The first issue I had was when my dentist left bone inside my gums when he removed my wisdom teeth. My jaw was so stiff and I could barely open my mouth much less eat. In my very first visit Mike was able to work on my jaw and it was immediately 80% better and after two visits my jaw no longer had any issues. My second visit was when I was having back pain that came along with my very physical job. I am a bartender and I knew the pain would probably be ongoing if I didn't find a way to treat it. Luckily Dan had a very hands on approach and discussed everything he was doing as he worked on me. He also taught me exercises that would help me strengthen my back and help with the pain. Now I do these exercises at home and very rarely have back pain anymore. He also made me aware of how my posture was when I was pouring drinks hovering over a well everyday. This made me more conscious of the things I was doing that was contributing to my back pain. I would definitely recommend Custom Physical Therapy to anyone in pain. Not only do they help you with your pain but they describe what they are doing and ways you can help your pain at home. Every member of the Custom Physical Therapy team was helpful and extremely thorough. They are a must if you are experiencing any pain. read more

The therapy may be pretty good, but they told me that if I paid a certain way with insurance it would only cost X amount so I paid that. Months later I get a cal wanted 2 times what X is. They lied to me and charged me so much more. I will never go here again. Not a very honest place to me. There are so many other good places out there like xcelerate physical therapy where they are very good, nice, and charge you only what they say they are going to. read more

Unfortunately, my initial review of Mike Burns and the Custom Physical Therapy staff was filtered so i will try again. I have had chronic pain in my neck, back & shoulder for 20 years. I was referred to Custom by my rheumatologist and I started going to Mike at Custom last November of 2012. For the first time in many years, I actually experienced "no pain" days. Their approach by working with the supporting fascia is radically different from my other PT and chiropractic experiences. This is the place to go when most all other pain management solutions have failed. read more

Words cannot express how wonderful Mike Burns and his entire staff are! I was in a bad car accident 20 years ago and have had back issues on and off over the years. Before I moved to Thousand Oaks (a few years ago), I went to Physical Therapists in Los Angeles and thought they were good...until I went to Mike. Mike is a miracle worker. His methods aren't always the traditional methods I received from other PTs. His methods work better! And he is very thorough in describing exactly what is going on with my back and hip. The support staff is top-notch, ethical and fun. Just a great group of folks, highly trained and caring. I cannot recommend them highly enough! read more

I am very grateful to have found Custom Physical Therapy. A friend and her husband had both gone to Mike Burns and Angela Spruill and recommended them highly so I thought I would give them a try. My body has been needing some TLC for a long time. I am really receiving great care and seeing some good results. I really like how they are not cookie cutter when it comes to your treatment . They really take the time to listen to what my specific needs are for that day and then explain what they are doing while they are treating me.They are always on time for my appointments and everyone is so nice from the front desk girls to the PT assistants and of course the Physical Therapists! I highly recommend them! read more

I've been to lots of physical therapists--from San Diego to Ventura--and Custom Physical Therapy is definitely the best. The therapists are completely committed to helping their patients get better and have the exceptional skills to make it happen. They work successfully with everyone from top athletes to stroke victims. This isn't the kind of place where they just send you off with an aide to do exercises, although that will probably be a part of treatment. The therapists spend a lot of time with their patients to figure out what imbalances, restrictions, or structural issues are underlying their problems and then do lots of hands-on work to address those issues. It can be a painful process, but the positive outcomes are well worth it. I've sent lots of people to Custom and everyone raves about the quality of care. If you want to get better, this is the place to go! read more

I did not have a problem with the therapy treatments but I do have an issue with their financial system. I had dual insurance whom they had a contract with. Primary paid their share. My secondary said that my primary paid more than their contract amount and that they were not responsible to pay and neither was I. CPT would not accept that and are now billing me over $300. They didn't even offer to make any type of adjustment. I will not return read more

I have been to a number of Physical Therapist since I have had 3 surgeries and found that they are the best and really care about getting you better. I want to thank them, especially, my therapist Lisa and also their entire staff that I am very grateful for their help and caring read more

I Just read the review from 3/14/2016 and I have to respond. I had been a patient of Custom post surgery on my back and had never experienced anything less than the utmost of professional and caring treatment! The front desk is always ready with a warm and friendly greeting and the staff from my therapist to the amazing aides made me feel like I was the only patient in the office ...As far as the paperwork ..yes that is to be expected in a Therapy Office...and yes as they say "sometimes things happen" beyond our control. I am sure it was just as upsetting to the staff as it was to the patient who did not get seen that day. So I suggest to the folks who wrote that review you better get a thicker skin and go live in a bubble ... read more

Very commercialized physical therapy. I wouldn't recommend as I was put with a PTA almost immediately. Then, every appointment thereafter, the PTA treated me and I didn't see the physical therapist again. The PTA injured my shoulder after pushing me too far and called me a tight ass when I asked what the tempo to the exercise was. read more

If you enjoy spending time with the physical therapist, then this is not the place for you. They are most concerned with profits and it shows. They do the bare minimum and then push you off to the assistant or one of the aides. read more
