So back in mid 2023, I broke my foot... Like the devastating kind of break. I had three fractures…read moreand a torn ligament that resulted in a major surgery that required four screws be placed in my foot to stabilize it and pin the ligament while it healed... End to end, I spent the better part of seven months in a boot. It was pretty awful. After surgery, my orthopedic surgeon recommended physical therapy... He said that it definitely could help me and I should give it a shot, even though I was skeptical. It's important to note that I was over 300 pounds when I had my final surgery and I was in a very weird place where I had to exercise if I wanted to lose weight, but my injury was so grievous that anything more than a slow walk was excruciating the next day. Enter Nate at Anchor Physical Therapy... I had my initial intake with him and while I did try another therapist, they weren't as good as a fit, so I adjusted my schedule to make sure I was available when Nate was available, and I started showing up for his first appointment every Friday morning. I've been working with Nate for over a year and while weight loss was definitely not part of our goal setting together, it was part of my personal journey, and he contributed to this greatly. He gave me homework, and I did it... Ensuring that I was moving my body, stretching, and doing the little things that he asked me to do in order to get better. This is an essential part of the journey, doing the homework. I won't bore you with all of the myriad of details of my recovery, but suffice just to say that in the last year I have lost 90 pounds, and I have graduated from a hobble to training for a 5K, after being told that it was likely I would never run again. With help from Anchor Physical Therapy, I have overcome the odds and in spite of injury, osteoarthritis, and schedule challenges, I've come out on top. As far as details go, I would also like to add that the front desk staff and management is phenomenal. They were always really great about dealing with my insurance, which is Tricare and that can be challenging at times. The referrals didn't always come through the right way, or there was a hiccup, but they always made sure it got taken care of, and they communicated every step of the way. Big thanks to the whole anchor team at this location and especially Nate.

Heating and icing as well were recommended, as with most injuries! But being able to come here and get some work done with the therapist, leaning new stretches and exercises to help warm up the muscles to stretch them more still helps me to this day!

We were referred here and the first session was an evaluation session so don't know how the actual PT will go. Reception area is small but the folks working there are very nice and helpful. We went into the evaluation room right on the time of our appointment which is important I think. Megan was the therapist and she was very pleasant and seemed knowledgeable. Tested my husband to see what would be needed, made suggestions of things he can do at home and evaluated what he was already doing. Since he's supposed to be seen twice a week for two months and they are very booked up the PT wasn't sure what to do about getting him in. The receptionist waved her magic wand and was able to schedule him starting next week through 8 weeks. Very important and very much appreciated. Will evaluate again after the actual therapy starts.

Hard to assess when you're not there and with another patient. This does not seem like standard practice and when I asked to get schedule on 1:1 was told it was not an option. The PT was very nice and knowledgeable but the business model does not seem adequate for patient care.

I have been impressed with her work ethic and attention to the front desk service she provides.

I have viewed the passion that Jane Line has for this facility and does a wonderful job for anyone coming through the door. In todays world customer service is becoming a thing of the past. There is proof in this facility that is definitely not the case. If the future holds more physical therapy for me, I would not go to any other place and do not hesitate to strongly recommend Elite to others.
