But they ALL required physical therapy, and Gainesville Physical Therapy and Wellness really helped me recover each time.

They are knowledgeable. and clearly explain to the patient the intent of each exercise and how to do it properly. And they're among the most affordable in the greater Gainesville area.

Dr. Mark Chance is so amazing! He has helped our family for YEARS (almost 8!) with allergies and…read morealignment issues! My step daughter came in with SEVERE allergies to nickel, Vit D, pet dander and more. Her face used to look like the zombie child from Episode 1 of the Walking Dead. She has come leaps and bounds through those. Barely has breakouts anymore. Only from really from stress (which he can address too!) I had an allergy to chicken (mostly but poultry too) & I have to readdress it occasionally. My issue is digestive, not anaphylactic. But the results from his work are incredible. My husband recently hurt his lower back and Dr. Mark Chance addressed that as well! Such a great family of doctors that do great work! We are so appreciative!!!

Dr Kevin Vincent and team at this location are AWESOME. From the time you walk into the office all…read moreemployees are happy, nice and up beat and make you feel welcomed and not a bother. Smiling friendly faces thru out the office and staff. Dr Vincent is what ALL doctors should be - he listens and takes his time to get to know what is going on and talks to you as a patient to see where and how he can help you - Me and my daughter could never say enough awesome things about this doctor. My daughter is terrified of doctors and for 21 years has never felt comfortable speaking to a doctor to explain her issue that she is having - Dr Kevin Vincent she talks to and he was able to help her get moving in the right direction. This says ALOT for a doctor that can relate and work with a terrified patient that usually is having a panic attack by just walking in a doctors office. The comfort starts at the lobby and carries it way all the way thru to the Doctor. If we had more offices like this the world would be a better place. Dr Kevin Vincent and staff please keep up the GREAT work - your office atmosphere is more then amazing , it is great to see people that enjoy their job/career and are truly there to help. Outstanding!!!!!!

The Orthopedic Institute (and physical therapy center) in Alachua is a blessing to those of us in…read morethis city and surrounding areas. Rather than having to drive to their main location on Newberry Road in Gainesville, we have physicians as well as a complete physical therapy center right here in Alachua. My review today is about the physical therapy center. I have been to the Center for various things dating back to 2013. Chris, the physical therapist, meets with you during your first visit to do an intake assessment. He has a wonderful and caring personality and talks with you to learn more about your injury and your needs. He also discusses your goals to see where you want to be. After doing his assessment he develops a physical therapy plan for you and you typically start your treatment that day (at least I have). My treatment plan usually requires coming to the office twice a week. When you enter, you sign in and then one of the physical therapy assistants will get you started. I won't discuss specific treatment plans because everyone is different but I will say that the office is not overly crowded, you do get personalized attention, and it is a fun atmosphere. I enjoy talking with the staff as well as the other clients. So, if you are ever in need of physical therapy, I suggest you give the Alachua center of the orthopedic institute a try. They can get you on the track to good health and help you meet or exceed your goals.

Well that is not what I have experienced at Shands (UF health) at Magnolia Park. The therapists have been exceptional. nothing short of incredible actually. Amanda is a spinal injury specialist and is on top of her game. She does not miss a beat. Katie and Prtha are also tops. They are all continually researching the best therapy and new cutting edge therapies. I've worked in Health care for almost 18 years and I've never seen the level of professionalism and attention to detail like I've seen here. I can't say enough great things. Recommend highly.

Magnolia Park is also convenient to get to from anywhere on the Northwest side of town. At peak hours parking can be difficult. The waiting room can also completely fill up if your appointment is after lunch break.
