    I would not waste your time/money with these clowns at Summit Orthopedics. I live in Blaine…read moreMinnesota. I went to Summit Orthopedics in Blaine, Vandais Heights and Plymouth offices. The long and short of it is that Kevin Lingren told me to go see Dr. Ed Santos. Dr Ed Santos told me to go see Dr. Saber. Dr Saber then sent me back to Ed Santos and Ed Santos sent me back to Kevin Lingren. I still have no resolution or understand what is wrong with me and it has been 6 months. I am very frustrated with Summit Orthopedics. Just to provide some background - the weekend of May 18, 2024 this started. By that Monday I struggled to walk up the stairs. The first week the pain was in my lower back. I was still able to function normally albeit slowly. Second week I started having trouble sitting. Third week I could not sit at all. It was so painful I had to lie on the floor all the time. The pain was very severe in my left hip and especially in my hip flexors. It felt like it was the entire left hip, front, back and side. First I saw a hip doctor Kevin Lingren on June 7 2024. He took X-rays, looked at them and said my hips are healthy and the problem was probably originating from my spine. No physical exam. He prescribed steroids for me. I made an appointment to see the surgeon Dr Ed Santos. I was impaired greatly and can barely make it through my day. I finally get to see his PA. I complained that the pain was so bad in my left hip flexors, two of them, one in my groin and the one leading to my quadricep. Hurt so bad I could not function. I had to ask for a physical exam. I still don't feel like I had a comprehensive exam, I thought I had more than one thing happening to me but no one addressed another potential issue, they just kept saying severe stenosis. An MRI and PT was prescribed. I could not get into see the PT because they were very busy so I started doing very gentle movements at home. I could not function normally. I could not go to the gym, grocery store or work. I could not function when I got out of bed. I couldn't even prepare something to eat or tie my shoes. I started doing PT movements at home. I watched hours of you tube videos every day to hopefully gain a little knowledge on what might be happening with me, I still had no idea and the doctors did not give me any information beyond stenosis and me having a 6th lumbar vertebrae (which the MRI never mentioned). Since they have the knowledge I would expect that one of these doctors would do a physical exam and could explain what was happening to me. oth hip Flexors were so painful I could not cough or take a deep breath. It hurt too bad to sit on the toilet so I used a female urinal. I couldn't bend over to feed my dogs. I had to lay down on the floor all day every day, either on my back or on my stomach. I ate on the floor. I worked from home laying on my back looking up at the monitors placed on the edge of my desk. EVERY DAY I would watch HOURS of you tube videos to find out how I could help myself and do gentle rehab on myself. My range of motion was poor. My left leg was weak, especially my knee and hip flexors. I fought every day to get it back. I couldn't do anything or go anywhere unless I did rehab. I couldn't take a shower or get ready without having to spend 20 or 30 minutes on the floor to reset my hips. I couldn't drive. I had to wait 6 weeks to go see the surgeon to go over the MRI results. I was in agony. Crying daily. I felt my life was over. I didn't know what was wrong with me. Finally I got to see Dr Santos and he barely spent 5 minutes with me. No physical examination whatsoever. I still was not getting any information. He didn't explain it to me or how/why it happened. Spending time with me to explain this would have helped me a lot. Instead he told me that I basically have stenosis on the left side of my L5/L6. He said he didn't think I would need surgery and he recommended me to go see MD, Dr Saber. I finally was able to see dr. Saber's PA. Although I know the diagnosis of stenosis was accurate, my symptoms are not consistent with stenosis, they are consistent with a soft tissue injury. I passed a lot of the tests they give me because I am physically fit but no one bothered to test my hip flexors even though that is what I have been complaining about the entire time. I failed my left knee jerk reaction. She gave me no physical examination. I was frustrated. I left crying. I was injured on May 20th 2024 and now it is November 10th 2024 I am doing much better but still suffer a little. I still can't really sit in an office chair so I have a sit/stand desk. At home I moved my recliner to my desk. I still have to take Advil and Tylenol but probably half of the day instead of the whole day. I am taking all my information and my MRIs to go see a real doctor at Twin Cities Spine Center. The reason I am better now is because of ME. I want these drs to hear this. They did not help me during a time when I needed it.

    I have to thank Pro Therapy for getting my knees stronger and in shape to go to Greece. Little did…read moreI know how much walking and climbing there would be with my old arthritic knees. I was scheduled to have knee replacement two years ago, but I have been able to put that off because of the attention and guidance that I received from Pro Therapy. I was introduced to new approaches for reliving pain in my knees, but the main goal was to strengthen them, with using the onsite exercise machines and through a variety of home exercises that I could do. Dr Brett held me accountable for my exercise routine. Dr Kevin took care of my body pain with needling, accupressure, muscle stimulation, cupping and general guidance with his extensive knowledge of how the muscles do and do not work within the body. I enjoyed feeling like I was their only patient for the day. They remembered our last conversation and we could discuss our favorite places to eat and recipes to try or interesting movies or TV shows. I truly felt like a valued member of their team or family. I will always choose Pro Therapy as my place for rehab.

    It's difficult to express the gratitude I have for the knowledgeable, kind, skilled Doctor of…read morePhysical Therapy I have seen! (Dr. Ben Schacht) This experience was astounding and beyond what my medical people expected as an outcome! I don't have enough superlatives to express my relief that there's no neurosurgeon in my future! When I have my knees replaced-I know where I'll rehab! Everything from intake to graduation was outstanding! Thank you PRO THERAPY! Alein Kemp

    This place is an absolute joke! NEVER EVER EVER GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!! The main receptionist that I…read morecalled informed me that there were only two clinics close to Roseville for me to go to: Blaine, and Golden Valley. I even stated that I worked in Woodbury and asked what was close by. She still said those were the closest. She seemed like an absolute air-head. And instead of double checking locations I took her word for it. Later finding out they DO have a location in Roseville and Oakdale that I could have attended. It is virtually impossible to even get ANYONE on the phone to answer. Good luck making an appointment. The first time I called I waited 37 minutes for a receptionist. The other times I left four messages and they did not return my calls. This place is almost impossible to even get parking spot in if there are soccer games there and it will take you an extra 15 minutes or more out of your time with the extra traffic. Leaving the location took me almost 20 minutes just to get onto 65. The location is horrible. So much traffic even in mid afternoon. Worse than downtown Minneapolis. This place is a joke. They don't care at all about their patients and have horrible customer service. It will take you a long time to make another appointment if you do it on the phone. I left a message cancelling my appointment. And the had the audacity to call me telling me I didn't show up. Well, it shows you they don't check their messages on a regular, maybe even daily basis. This place is trash. Save your time.

    My husband sustained multiple injuries in a work-related accident and has been working with several…read morestaff members at the Fairview location in Blaine (NOT at the soccer complex), and they have ALL been the absolute best! Everyone, from the receptionists, schedulers, chiropractor and the hand & physical therapists have ALL been top notch. They truly care about their clients and offer a lot of encouragement when you get discouraged. They won't let you give up on yourself and keep reminding you of where you were and how far you've come. You leave there feeling good about yourself and your accomplishments, which is priceless when you're down-in-the-dumps. I've scheduled appointments both over the phone and in-person and have NEVER had a problem getting my calls answered or the appointments scheduled in a timely manner. Likewise, parking has never been an issue either. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone that needs therapy, based on my husband's long history with them!
