After my orthopedic doctor took x-rays and diagnosed my back pain, he referred me to Drysdale Physical Therapy. I'm so glad he did! During my first visit, Dr. Drysdale did a comprehensive evaluation. It was immediately clear that he is extremely knowledgeable and competent. He found the underlying cause of my pain, then prescribed a treatment program that would address the cause - not just treat the symptoms. I looked forward to each visit. The atmosphere is upbeat and positive, and like Dr. Drysdale, each assistant who helped me was friendly, professional and highly skilled. Through a combination of physical adjustments, massage, specially tailored exercises, ice and electrical stimulation, in four sessions, and my pain was gone. Besides Dr. Drysdale, I want to give a special thanks to Miriam, who gave me exercises to do at home that have been surprisingly effective. Thanks also to Hannah at the front desk who went over and above to help get the necessary paperwork from my referring doctor. I will definitely go back to Drysdale PT for any future needs. Highly recommended!! read more

The place is a cash cow. They load up on patients and you will see an actual therapist for about 5 minutes. Then there are a gaggle of therapy aids who have very little effect that wander from patient to patient. You will spend a fair amount of time waiting. The therapy aids did not ensure physical training was being done correctly. When using Electric Muscle Stimulation, the aid put it on the wrong part of my body twice. To add insult to this, there is a heavy jock-bro environment. I cancelled after my second visit. The therapists themselves are good and the diagnosis was spot on. They are just maximizing profit at the cost of treatment. read more

I wish that we were given the opportunity to give more than 5 star reviews as I would definitely give a higher star rating to Drysdale Physical Therapy. I have been going to them for approximately 3 months now for problems with my right leg and now my left leg. I am so impressed with the entire staff there from the front desk receptionist to the back therapy room employees. Especially Miriam one of the therapists. She has pushed me to where I thought I could never go. Before going to Drysdale PT I could not even walk 1/4 of a mile without extreme pain in my lower back. I can now walk a mile plus with no pain whatsoever. I can truly say that I will never go to any other therapist but Drysdale. I continually praise the staff there to my family and friends and they can see the difference in me also. Given them a call today, you won't be sorry. read more

The treatment at Drysdale is top notch and Miriam does an amazing job, along with all of the aids.

Everyone is competent, personable, and caring. They were able to get me walking unassisted following nerve damage in my back and legs. Highly recommended! read more

I wanted to take the time to compliment Dr. Drysdale and his entire staff for their professionalism, and the individualized treatment plans. The care I received was both beneficial to the recovery of my injury and the sessions themselves were enjoyable. I was treated more like a friend than a patient. It was the best experience I've had at a physical therapy facility. From the girls at the front desk and everyone else that is involved with your care made me look forward to my appointments. I'd never go anywhere else!!! read more

Mirian was my therapy go to person I had two small tendon tears in my left foot. I always looked forward to coming in. She has a wealth of knowledge and was always helpful. She even went as far to teach me how to use KT tape. I use it now only when needed. Lee now has some excellent exercises for getting me back on the tennis courts. The entire staff definitely has the team spirit. read more

Thanks to Dr Drysdale and his staff. A special thanks to Miriam who helped me with my back pain. All of the staff is friendly and gives great attention to the issues that you may have. Highly recommended! read more

I don't know why it's taken me so long to write this review. It's not because it isn't deserved. Drysdale Physical Therapy is the place you want to go to heal, get better and be your best self. This is my second experience with them and I couldn't be happier with my recovery. I never thought I'd be the same after cervical fusion, but my range of motion is better than I ever thought it would be. Thank you Lee! When you walk in you're greeted by friendly faces and the treatment area is the same. You're always made to feel comfortable and looked after by people who know what they're doing. The treatment tables are carefully cleaned after each patient and the entire facility is always immaculate. My only complaint would be about the 2 dead bushes outside the back windows! I'd recommend Drysdale PT to anyone. read more

Absolutely!!! Hands down the best staff. Friendly, Prompt, and they treat everyone like they've known you forever. Ontop of that the care is top notch. They explain everything and make sure you aren't sitting with down time. They take great care of all their clients. Highly recommend.!! read more

My well-renowned back surgeon recommended George and Drysdale Physical Therapy to me after I went on my own and tried another local therapy office. Thank goodness! I get personal care and you can tell it is quality because the place is usually full and busy. And Miriam will massage and work your muscles with such healing hands. I finally have found the best place for me. read more

The Therapists and their staff are all high quality. Their training is over the top. They care about your personal needs for therapy and address all your issues in a professional and caring method. They have helped me personally change my daily pain levels from 9&10 levels to as low as 2 & 3. I couldn't recommend a better therapy group! read more

When my Dr. 1st sent me to Drysdale Physical Therapy, I felt hesitant to go because it wasn't close to where I live but I quickly felt very comfortable there. They are all so kind and comforting and knowledgeable. I highly recommend trying them, if you ever need therapy. read more

I'm so glad that my doctor recommended Drysdale Physical Therapy. They are kind, informative and a wonderful bunch of people who, actually, care for me. I've been to several PT clinics and this one is above and beyond helpful to my recovery. My therapist is Tyler, who is amazing, not to say all the others aren't great, because they all are. I will recommend this clinic to anyone who needs Pt. read more

The doctor, therapists and aids are Drysdale PT are some of the kindest, sweetest people I've ever been to for physical therapy. They take their time to get to know you and your injury and do a great job making sure you get better. They're very hands on and friendly and help you through every step of you physical therapy journey. I highly recommend them to anyone who us looking for a healing touch. read more

I was referred for diagnosis of a twitch that had developed in my left buttock, a suspected sacroiliac problem that might require surgery. Dr. Drysdale listened carefully and then checked me out mechanically. He noted that my right foot was slightly turned out. He sorted through my tangle of hip and butt muscles and gristle, manipulating each bit into its proper position. Then Dr. Drysdale stretched me out on a table and, holding my left leg tight to his shoulder, gave it a sharp tug. That fixed a misalignment of about 60 years' duration. I could only say "Wow!" The realignment was locked into place by follow-up therapy, five more visits. Even during a pandemic, Drysdale PT is a nice place to visit. Staff are unfailingly pleasant and professional. read more

George, Lee, Tyler and everyone working there wants to help you work through the pain and get well. They care and go out of their way to help you improve. I have been going to Drysdale physical therapy for 17 years and have never been disappointed in the care that I have received. Thank you all for your help. Mike Dean read more

I've been having pain in my neck, shoulders and now forearm for a long time. Went to a chiropractor for several months and no relief. A friend of mine told me I needed to see Dr Drysdale for Physical Therapy. I figured I had nothing to lose and the pain was getting worse. Within minutes Dr Drysdale knew what was causing my pain! I honestly cried when I left the office because finally someone figured it out and he explained in detail why I was suffering. I've been going twice a week for a few weeks and am feeling better! Dr. Drysdale's team is phenomenal! The environment is warm and friendly (even when I'm not) you can tell it's a good place to work and the team loves what they do! read more

I have been to Drysdale two separate times for two different areas of my back. The first time around I was saved from needing a back brace for my scoliosis, Dr. Drysdale gave me exercises I've been using for years. The second time around reminded me why I loved being at their office so much. Everyone is so kind, they check in quickly if they see you're not being worked on and they have given me the tools I need to move forward in reducing a curve on my upper spine. I'm very sad to go but I recommend them to everyone I know. Thank you Tyler, George, Carlos, Immanuel, McKay, Andrew, Priscilla, Mrs. Chaudhary and everyone else for making each visit to the office a comfortable and welcoming. read more

Two years ago, after surgery on my left shoulder, i checked with friends and medical professionals where they recommend I should go for physical therapy. They all recommended Dr. Drysdale. I had a great experience and an excellent recovery with full range of motion without pain, restored. Four weeks ago, I had the same surgery on my right shoulder. Of course, I went back to Dr. Drysdale. And, this recovery is also going well. Dr. Drysdale's practice is a professional, non-i stitutional, warm environment where the staff and he have their patients well being foremost in their practice. It's clear they all keep up to date on their training and new developments in the field of physical therapy. I highly recommend Drysdale Physical Therapy. read more

Dr. Drysdale is amazing, I have been suffering from TMJ for years with no relief, over the last month I finally have relief I have never felt before and am so thankful!!! between him and Mr. Lee I have never been happier and pain free. Nessi and Luke are the bomb when it comes to massager, the only thing I wish is that the massages were longer hahaha. I highly recommend this place, they have taken care of not only me but my mother and father as well. Thanks again guys!!! read more

Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. I have brought multiple family members here and they received the best care. My brother is extremely special needs and everyone was very kind and helpful. They spent extra time listening to his complications and working with his ability level. There's a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere in the office. Highly recommended. read more

I have been with Drysdale for several different issues over the years. George (Dr. Drysdale) is a true genius at diagnosing and getting you healed with the exact right modalities. And my husband has worked with Lee as well and has had excellent results and good direction from him. There is also a first-class support staff offering hands-on healing and treatment as well as guiding you through exercises to strengthen you and get you back into your life. I have had diverse issues but have never had anything they can't address and it's always done with an upbeat attitude, humor, and complete compassion coupled with their outstanding skills. I send my friends here and feel it is the premier physical therapy facility in the valley. I've been to others and some have been helpful but nothing at this level. I hope to never have to go anywhere else. Go with confidence and during Covid they have the best protocols in place, air filters going constantly, everyone is masked and socially distanced including clients, and they are committed to keeping everyone healthy. This is THE place to be. read more

Great physical therapy. They are truly a team and everyone works to make sure you get the best results. I've been there for three weeks and see incredible results. The team makes you feel comfortable and gives you just enough push to get to the finish line. read more

Just finished my final session with Lee. Gonna miss him and his professional abilities to provide the necessary work to heal my pains and to educate me about what's going on with my SI Joint and IT Band. Did I mention that I'm gonna miss him? Actually, the entire team is very professional and so friendly, it felt like a family visit every time I was there. Gonna miss you guys! :) read more

I can honestly say George is a God send. He has helped me so much with my back pain. The entire facility has always been clean. The staff is just amazing. From the moment you walk in you feel at home. I highly recommend Drysdale to those suffering from pain. You wont regret it:) read more

I do would not recommend Drysdale Physical Therapy to an athlete or anyone else that wants a high-performance clinic. My experience at Drysdale PhysicalTherapy was sub-par; I actually walked out of the clinic during a session because of lack of attention from the PT. My rating is based on: 1) Lack of attention from Physical Therapist; 2) Lack of knowledge of physical therapist; 3) Lack of knowledge of staff. In my former life as an 8 year minor leaguer, I had 5 surgeries and recovered with some of the best therapists in the world; so I know good care when I see it. I also went to a clinic before Drysdale (in orange county) and a clinic after Drysdale (in San Jose) so I have first-hand experience with other clinics for this same ACL recovery. 1) The clinic was often over-crowded with patients. While there may have been enough space for the patients, there were not enough therapists. A typical 1 hour therapy session resulted in 5-10 minutes of hands-on time with the therapist. I'm not sure if insurance companies have a minimum time PTs need to spend with a patient, in order to bill, but I'd be surprised if it was less than 10 minutes for an hour long appointment. 2) Physical therapist had masters degree (not doctorate). He did not have much experience in post-ACL surgery therapy. While he hadn't led many patients through this type of recovery, he did seem to know the basics. The PT did NOT do manual therapy/massage of the injured leg (which is standard practice for this type of recovery). 3) The PT Aides were terribly inexperienced. The PT aides performed the massage of my knee, but had NO IDEA WHAT THEY WERE DOING. They frequently massaged the wrong way, didn't have good pressure control and did not have an idea why/what they were doing. Additionally, they were not instructed on how to use the ultra-sound machine. Ultra sound doesn't even have any researched-based results for post-acl recovery. While most of my experience was bad, there were some good things: The staff was friendly Some of the clientele seemed very happy, although most of these people did not appear to have much experience with PT or athletics (or maybe they just didn't know what good PT clinics offer, so they didn't have anything to compare). read more

After a disastrous experience with a physical therapist in the town where I am currently living, I chose to spend a month in Fresno just to return to George and his amazing staff to help me out with my weird hip issues. He really helped me fix up my back in 2003 and I'm happy to say that in 2010, Drysdale Physical Therapy is still up to the same high standard of quality. The staff here is personable, attentive, and eager to answer your questions. You do not get stuffed in a room with a magazine and a shocker machine to wonder if your therapist is going to really come back from Starbucks. Instead, patients warm up on a bicycle, then see an assistant for ultrasound and whatever the little electrical machine is called, then massage therapy, and finally there is time with the physical therapist himself. And best of all, they give you effective and numerous exercises to do at home to help yourself. They actually want to get their patients well, not drag out treatment until the next Harry Potter film comes out. Both therapists really take time with their patients and try to get to the root of the problem. I really needed help in a short amount of time and didn't want to pussyfoot around finding someone new, and they have helped me. read more

I have been extremely impressed with Drysdale Physical Therapy. Lee was my therapist for several months. I found him to be knowledgeable, caring and supportive. He explained thoroughly what options I had with my treatment plan. After 3 1/2 months of therapy, I am experiencing less pain and feel much stronger. All of the staff are caring and supportive - a great environment all the way around. read more

After a few weeks of continued shoulder pain associated with working out, I decided to seek professional help. Of course I turned to Yelp and was extremely fortunate to find Drysdale PT. The entire experience is top notch, from the front desk to the back room. There is no question that everyone is passionate and caring for their clients. I have been working with Robby for the past two weeks. He takes the time to do a full assessment and diagnose what exactly the problem may be, mixes in some humor and recommends a course of action to correct your issue. I'm convinced that if he wasn't a physical therapist he would be a comedian. I'm looking forward to getting better but will actually miss coming here! read more

The entire staff at Drysdale Physical Therapy is not only professional but also extremely friendly. I came here following an auto accident; I had both neck and back pain as well as terrible headaches. After the first session with Robby, I could tell a marked difference in the intensity of my headaches. By the third session, my headaches were virtually nonexistent. Robby and the physical therapy assistants asked questions each visit to track progress and make sure the affected areas were being treated effectively. I was also given exercises to do at home to aid in the recovery process. My first physical therapy experience, I wasn't sure what to expect and went in a little nervous. However, the warm welcome of the staff and their patience explaining to me the PT process along with the great results - no more headaches and uninhibited neck and back movement - I'm truly grateful for Drysdale and am now definitely a believer in physical therapy. read more

I have never felt better in my life. Came in for business to business appointment, and ended up getting a quick session to check out my body, come to find out, the reason for my back and shoulder and neck pain was from being out of alignment, a few quick seconds for each part of my body and I feel like a million bucks. That's to George, and his fantastic staff for making me not only feel better. But also feel special and important. Thanks guys. Great visit, and I will be sending my wife next lol read more

First visit here. Felt very comfortable and welcome. Lee, my therapist was awesome. He pulled my leg which adjusted my hip. Can't believe how much relief that was after just my initial visit. I really like it here cause they take their time with you and show you how to use the machines and out patient care. The rest of the staff is great too. I highly recommend this place to anyone in need of physical therapy. read more

I really enjoy how George explains things in terms that we understand. My wife and I are always amazed at how well he understands our pain and makes us feel better. Excellent staff!!! read more

I am highly recommending Dysdale Physical Therapy to anyone looking or needing it. George and his staff are the best! They are professional, full of knowledge and the best part....they make you feel like family. A very relaxed atmosphere and you just want to keep going back. They nursed me back to health and I am healthier than ever thanks to all the wonderful staff. No more pain...I am just sad not to see everyone. I will come back to visit to say Hi! read more

I've been fighting lower back issues for a couple of years. Have tried chiropractor, another PT in Fresno, massage and muscle activation...all with slow and limited recovery. Decided to try Drysdale based on reviews and so glad I did. I had a huge improvement in mobility after just 1 appt w/Lee and after only a few sessions (plus stretches & exercises I do at home) I am back on the bike and training for a century! The facility is clean, all the staff is friendly and I can't say enough good things about Lee. read more

Everyone here is amazing. They will fix the aches, pains and injuries. You will leave feeling like a million bucks!

I've had neck pain for over 5-6 years now. Drysdale PT is the only PT in town I would trust to work on my neck. They are professional, personable, and hands down the best in town. I refer all my friends and family there. read more

I've gotta give these guys some love (even though it's taken me four years...) Back in 2008, I suffered a horrible bicycle wreck that left me with a complete AC separation Stage 3 - basically, I blew up my shoulder completely. No broken bones but I was left with less than 50% strength and mobility once it had "healed" thus ending my BMX and Mtn Biking hobby. How I found these guys is kind of a funny story... My Grandmother was going to them to help with a misplaced nerve in her hip and since she couldn't drive, I agreed to take her to her appointments twice a week. This was about three months after I had wrecked my shoulder and I was left with a huge misplaced clavicle (I still have it, but it's one helluva lot prettier than it used to be...). One day while I was waiting for my Grandma to finish her treatment, I got talking to George about my recent injury and he asked to see it. I showed him and after a brief assessment, he told me to check with my insurance to see if physical therapy was covered because he was sure that he could help me. He explained to me all about the muscle group associated with my particular shoulder injury and laid out a rehabilitation plan... before I had even agreed to let them treat me! He also told me a few exercises I should be doing and walked me through the proper way to perform them to get the most out of them. Basically, he gave me a free consult on the spot and let me know how eager he was to help me get back to 100%. I checked with my insurance and indeed I was covered for PT so the very next week, I signed up with Drysdale to get my shoulder fixed. The cool thing was that since my Grandma was already going twice a week, George scheduled me for the same time so that I wouldn't be making several trips each week. Even though he was my primary, I ended up with a team of three people all active in my rehabilitation and I began to notice a tremendous difference in strength and mobility after just a few weeks. Three months later, I was back to about 90% on my shoulder and my bump was looking a lot less "alien." Not just that, but I was able to get back on my bikes (something the attending in the ER told me I'd never be able to do) and four years later, I'm feeling strong. I still live with some residual, but not nearly as much as I would have if I hadn't found Drysdale. Whether you're an athlete, recovering from surgery or just need someone to help you after an injury, give these guys a call. read more

This was my first treatment session approved for twelve visits. Getting to know the staff at Drysdale physical therapy was a very pleasant experience. My therapist was Lee, all the exercises were explained to me at the level for me to understand. After each session I leave there with more mobility in my left Ankel than when I arrive.(no pain, no gain!) I totally recommend Lee and all the supporting staff to all my friends and family. read more
