I can't speak highly enough about John Schmidt the sole proprietor of Trillium Physical Therapy. I…read morerecently had a total hip replacement after putting it off for several years. I experienced a set back in week 5-6 due to added issues from both lifelong scoliosis and past injuries which complicated my condition somewhat. Thanks to John's expertise I am quickly on my road to recovery and now beginning to enjoy the things that make my heart sing that I've been unable to do these past several years. Hiking is one of my all time favorite passions in life and I'm now starting to hit the trails once again. I've been to many P.Ts. over the years and John is by far one of the most excellent. John is a true gem...both as a very gifted P.T. and a wonderful human being.

I saw Christine once then a different massage person each time. this bothered me because you can't really get to know someone's body when you don't see them. That felt wrong to me. Kind of like a bodywork factory. my third visit the Massuse, while using her forearm ,a practice I that I think is wrongheaded as healing comes from the hands, dislocated my rib, the therapist felt awful and I did too. It has taken another truly wonderful body worker, an so far a week and a half for me to be able to move comfortably. the first night I couldn't even move. truely I would have let it go, knowing Christine was probably worried about a law suit, but not once did I anyone from the office call to see how I was doing. The lack of concern was astonishing to me. I wouldn't go back there if they paid me.

There was initially a bit of a mess with my insurance and them - Anthem said they were in-network,…read morethey said they were out-of-network - that took a bit to get resolved, but that was the only negative. I saw Mona Lisa Perez for a few weeks prior to my microdiscectomy surgery and for 8 weeks after I was healed enough to resume PT. She is so, so skilled in in her field. She noticed and addressed things not just related to my lower back and having just completed my time with her, I legitimately feel stronger and like I'm more in control of my muscles and body movements. She was also delightful to work with - very personable and I often found myself laughing during our sessions. Crossing my fingers that I'll never need to return to PT again, but if I do, I won't hesitate to see Mona Lisa again.

The problem is that I paid upfront for both sessions and then my insurance company paid them as well. And they kept all the money. I complained and they responded with some BS about in-network/out-of-network, it's the insurance company's fault. No, it's simple. I paid them and then they kept my reimbursement from the insurance company. It's 7 weeks since the last appointment. It's clear I'm not getting my money back. It was just $185, so there's no legal option really. I'm just concerned that another client might not notice before they're out of a lot more money. James M. replied that they told me they were not accepting my insurance. Not true. They took all my information and said they would file the claims and see if they were accepted. James M. claimed that they cut ties with the insurance company in Sept. (I still have the email), If so, why did they file the claims in Dec. and Jan.? The insurance company did not accidentally pay James M.'s business. They filed the claims and my insurance company paid them to James M.'s business. And they didn't mention that to me.

Darlene was my therapist and she was amazing. I learned proper stretching techniques and much more. On the 4th appointment watching and coaching me, Darlene asked me to lie down on my stomach. Quickly, she determined I had sciatica, L4/L5. Exercises were focused on the area and improvement was made. Since the pain would not disappear, an MRI was ordered and it was determined I had herniated discs, L4/L5. I was amazed Darlene was able to determine exactly what was wrong months before I had an MRI. If you need physical therapy, I strongly recommend Darlene at EPT McKinleyville. You will be impressed.
