Dr. Allen, Dr. Michael and the entire Pegasus team provide the most incredible Physical Therapy experience experience that I have ever had. Their combination of heat and deep tissue massage has left me feeling like I have had a miracle . I have continued taking 700 mg of gabapentin at bedtime but no other pain medication not even Tylenol during the night or day. I have been seeing them twice a week for the past month. This is my first day of waking up pain-free. I am even walking around without my cane!Drove to get my hair done sitting here in disbelief. I can't wait till Monday when I get back to therapy again to see if this is a lasting effect. I will keep you posted.. read more

The quality of care is outstanding. The facility is clean. The staff is attentive and well trained. I highly recommend Pegasus as a place to go for physical therapy. There were not any problems billing the insurance company. read more

Alan and his team are the BEST! I have had three knee surgeries in the past year and I have gone there after each for recovery. Everyone there is so kind and professional, I can't imagine ever going elsewhere for PT. After my first surgery, I was in so much pain and was on crutches much longer than I expected and I started weening off crutches after my first visit. My most recent surgery was the most serious of the three and the Pegasus staff helped me immediately. It's been 3 months and I feel like I'm doing better than I ever expected. Can't recommend enough! read more

I was recommended to Pegasus by a neighbor. Acupressure for my ailing back !! Alan is the best ! Love his staff !

Alan and his team are phenomenal. This is the second major injury I have gone to him for and he is far superior to other PT's I have seen. For this recent injury, I saw two other PT's before I saw him. Neither of the other two truly understood my injury and some of their recommendations were counter productive. Alan spends a lot of personal time with you providing hands on manipulation. I'm early in my recovery for this injury, but will come back and write an update, hopefully when I am recovered. I highly recommend Alan and his team. read more

I've been receiving treatment at the Newport Beach location for a few months now. Alan and team are simply the best! They've helped me considerably and I'm so grateful. I have been to other physical therapy places in the past that do traditional type treatments, but Pegasus is different with their approach to wellness & healing. The staff is friendly, welcoming and always right on time. I appreciate all that they do and highly recommend them! read more

I've been coming to Pegasus PT for years. Alan and his team have literally saved me from surgery and have made it possible for me enjoy my day to day life. I know it's sounds dramatic, but it's true! I spent years at other other PTs, ART, Pain Managment, etc. - you name it I tried it. I was meeting with spine specialists because my neck and back pain were unbearable. 10 off them wanted to operate until one referred me to Pegasus before going under the knife. Best decision I ever made! read more

Alan dealt with the full issue trying to find the root cause not a quick band aid fix. I can't recommend him enough.

I am very grateful for the referral to Dr. Alan Cheng at Pegasus PT in Newport and the wonderful healing treatments I received! He and the office staff are amazing! Working from home during Covid quarantine, I was unable to sit long periods at my desk without pain. I tried o-t-c meds and acupuncture, but nothing helped...it was awful. Dr. Cheng's technique has worked wonders on my back! I'm still feeling the benefits months later and happy to be pain-free! read more

I have been an athlete all my life and have gone through physical therapy for two knee surgeries, and two shoulder replacements. But, being hit by a semi truck a year ago was the toughest recovery I have had. I can say without question that Pegasus is at the top of the Physical Therapy leader board. They have the best team and most hands on attentive staff that I have come across yet. I have been absolutely blessed to work with Jo and Alan and Michal and Celia. Jo is the best kept PT secret in California or the USA possibly. She won't be a student for long so I highly recommend getting to know this phenomenal team on your next physical therapy prescription or even just to help something that might be in pain. read more

I was referred to Pegasus by my doctor and turns out I have a tear in my arm muscle. Alan and his team are SO great! Super friendly. It's a quaint, comfortable environment. I have made great progress with my arm due to their skill and knowledge of how to treat me. Alan is so funny and likes to put his patients at ease. We have a lot of fun while I'm being treated, which is very helpful. If you need to do physical therapy, which I know can be painful and hard sometimes, I recommend Pegasus because they make it not seem so bad! Theresa G. read more

Pegasus is the ONLY physical therapy place to go in OC. Alan is a genius with his common sense approach & professional experience. He heals in half the time with awesome results. Just ask my knee, shoulder & elbow! He manages an excellent team, too. read more

Alan and his staff are wonderful. This has been my first experience with PT so I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm an athlete with hip and neck issues and my performance has improved greatly since coming to Pegasus. The team is very attentive and the treatment is targeted each time. I always feel at ease and "fixed" when I leave. Great job guys! read more

I had a TKR in December and for the first month after surgery Pegasus PT came to my house for rehab. I had a very positive experience with Kathrin the Physical Therapist. She was very helpful in motivating me in what exercises to do to get my leg back. She was always on time and kept a schedule that was around my schedule. It certainly set the foundation for my recover. I would certainly recommend Pegasus Physical therapy and of course Kathrin as your therapist! read more

Every time I break, Mike and his team fix me. Excellent hands on therapy.

I've been treated by PPT and team for several years with chronic neck pain and general tightness of shoulders & traps. The results have been beneficial with my job and every day life. From the beginning Dr. Alan has taken great interest and time to address my medical needs. The environment within both Newport and Laguna Hills location is pleasant and comfortable. The staff are very professional and make you feel that their focus is 100% on your wellbeing. Keep up the great work PPT..! read more

Dr. Cheng is at the top of his game! I've been a patient for a few years now, and whenever I need anything sports injury related, he is the only person I'll see. His care of his patients is amazing and is always following up with them to see how they are post care. He handled my post-ACL rehab, and had me walking alot faster than what the Dr had told me. I'm grateful for Dr Cheng And his staff. Extremely professional, courteous, and they're very up to date with the latest techniques and procedures. read more

Alan is the best. I've been to many chiropractors and physical therapists who barely even touch you. Alan and his staff are different. They truly care about you. They are hands on. Alan and his staff have worked with me after my pregnancy and my misaligned hips and bulging disc. I honestly trust Alan more than my three pain management doctors because he's the one who has actually felt my muscles, my knots, and all of my problem areas on a regular basis. He is the one who has worked to solve my aches and pains. I am very thankful for Alan. read more

I've been going to Pegasus on and off for several years, first for a broken foot and then now for a neck/back injury from a car accident. Alan and the staff are great. Their pt is a mix of massage, exercise, and acupressure. They also offer incredible therapeutic massage. read more

love how effective the PT treatment at Pegasus. Dr. Alan is humours to make the treatment experience a breeze.

Dr. Alan Cheng is amazing! I tore my ACL skiing and had ACL reconstruction surgery in June 2018. One month post-surgery my ACL doctor (Dr. Labovitch - incredible google him) wanted to know who my physical therapist was because my range of motion and stability exceeded his expectations. The Pegasus office environment is very comforting and the massage therapists are highly skilled. My sessions included knee/leg massages to warm up the muscles (favorite part), range of motion/stability/strength exercises, and finished with icing. Alan is kind of like a coach in the way that he supports you but pushes you to your full potential to make sure you recover within the timeframe you want. I never dreaded physical therapy because Alan and his staff always made it entertaining. I would definitely recommend Pegasus! I'm 8 months post-surgery and back playing sports! P.S. I forgot to mention that my roommate recommended Pegasus to me. Prior to my ACL tear, she broke her ankle and saw Dr. Michael Thorpe at Pegasus. She said she really liked Dr. Thorpe and the Pegasus approach because it's different than the typical physical therapist office. Pegasus uses AcuStretch (deep tissue massage) to alleviate pain in combination with exercises. You won't regret going to Pegasus, especially the massages! read more

Go see Alan! He's magic. I've been locked up for 6 months, not able to turn my head. One visit with him and I can almost look over my shoulder! Amazing. read more

A big thank you to Alan and his team. I've been under Alan's care for the last year. When I went to see him, I had been through Physical Therapy for a full year and wasn't seeing results. My neurologist recommended Alan and I went to see him. When I sat down with him, he instilled a great deal of confidence in the treatment plan and he was right. Within six weeks I had progressed in ways I had not with my previous PT. I was in a car accident that gave me a concussion and severe whiplash. The pain I had in my neck and head was unbearable at times, and I suffered from bouts of vertigo that kept me in bed for days. Alan's technique is different and he is very hands on. I'm eternally grateful to him for what he has done for me. Alan has a great team around him and it's easy to place all of your trust in his care. I recently returned for a "tune up" and realized it was due time to write a review. After two visits I'm back on my A game and feeling great. Recently my husband fell while snowboarding and it tweaked his neck. I sent him to Alan and he is very impressed with him as well, and is well on his way to recovery. Thank you Alan to you and your team for having great technique, integrity and care for your patients. We are grateful for you! read more

I went there three times in March and April 2018. The woman at the desk looked up my insurance information and told me my copay would be $15, since I rarely get physical therapy I took her at her word. On each visit I paid with a credit card, in May I got a bill for $180.00 which was the remainder of my deductible plus the copays. It turned out that that they didn't actually charge my card after researching it. They also didn't give me exercises to do at home as my doctor expected. I think they could have been much more professional in each case. I had stopped going because it was not helping at all. read more

This office does an amazing job customizing your physical condition. My injured arm was keeping me up at night with excruciating pain. The had me healed in 2 weeks. I wish I would have gone to them sooner. I feel like I have my life back. The office has a cool tiki vibe and they play fun music. The whole staff is positive, upbeat, empathetic and very knowledgeable. read more

I was referred to Pegasus PT by my orthopedic surgeon after bankart repair shoulder surgery. Everyone at this office is great. Getting my range of motion back was a team effort and not always easy but I made progress at every session. Alan was very confident that he could get my shoulder back to normal, I trusted him and his team and my shoulder is doing great. Initially, I could barely touch my face with my hand and now at 4 months I'm back to normal for everyday stuff. read more

Dr Chang very caring and knows exactly what to do to get you back on track. Was going twice a week and will resume again as soon as the virus thing calms down In the meantime doing all the stretches they showed me! His staff very knowledgeable and Martha at front desk very nice! read more

I am fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Alan Cheng last June by my podiatrist, primarily for torn peroneal tendons. As an active 62 year old with prior back and hip problems, I needed a good therapist to help me recover from more than two years of walking with an altered gait and subsequent flare-ups of my back and hip pain (and serious leg atrophy). It is now January, 2021 and I am for the first time in 2 1/2 years walking normal. I have been to multiple physical therapists and must say Dr. Cheng is the best therapist I have ever seen; truly gifted. The Pegasus group is multi-modality in their approach consisting of adjustments, deep tissue massage and progress guided exercise. This group is exactly what I needed to address what I feel was a complicated recovery. I doubt I would be where I am today had I not come to Pegasus. read more

I have been seeing Alan for years. He always take good care of my issues; pinched nerve, lower back pain , knots, headaches or just muscle aches. He never disappoints me , not even once. All the recommendations that he gave me how to sleep better and to avoid injuries from work, those help a lot. My English is not that good, I'm a fob (fresh of the boat) as I don't know beautiful words to describe his work on me for a pass few years. It is like a magic touch. I just want to say Thank You from my heart, Alan. You are such a life saver!!!! read more

Went to Pegasus Physical Therapy after knee surgery. The staff are amazing and super friendly. My therapist, was called Mike and he was excellent. I highly recommend this place. read more

Not Good, the Pegasus that I went to was in Laguna Hills I believe the PT is the same one mentioned in the previous reveiw. I believe their billing practices are not ethical or honest. i was quoted $65 to $90 per visit when i recieved the bill it was about 3 times as high as the range i was quoted. there were charges for work not done also. i called to alert them of this and recieved a new bill (lower mind you) but still charged for items not done and for more that the original quote. I will not go back and do not recommend them. read more

Not sure how much better they could be, but it's just been two visits and i'm fairly critical. This place knows what they are doing and gives decent advice and education. Definitely in the top 5-10% of places you could go to for PT. I have been to 8-9 for various issues and they are top 1 or 2. read more

I've been to Pegasus Physical Therapy a number of times for different problems, including shoulder, elbow, and wrists. Each time, Dr. Alan Cheng was spot on in diagnosing the problem and providing me with the appropriate treatment. Sometimes it required doing the appropriate exercises at home, other times, it required Dr. Cheng to be hands on, personally working with me until I got better. Throughout the process, Dr. Cheng explained the issue and treatment in detail, setting me at ease and helping me to understand what I needed to do to get better. I would highly recommend him and Pegasus Physical Therapy. read more

I love this place. I have suffered from headaches for a long time, my doctor referred me to Alan with my current neck issues leading to headaches. From the first time i went i felt a ton of relief. It is hard to make your first appointment, but that is because they are busy with current clients. Once you are in appointments are easy to get. For sure worth the wait. The staff is really nice too. I can tell Alan trains them intensively. Try this out and i can pretty much guarentee you will love it. read more

Dr. Alan was impressive on the first visit. I was encouraged that I would have some relief from back pain. . Each time I returned--and it was often...I had to insist that I see him and was successful one or two times but after that I was moved off to his assistants. I was told he was busy with other patients. On one visit, they booked an appointment for me with his partner in the other office. I had no idea that this was so until I got there. That was clearly a waste of time and money. The front office was inefficient and unfamiliar as it related to insurance matters and poor about returning phone calls. This is not an office I would recommend, I'm sorry to say. It's really a shame. I thought I could make progress. read more

I was referred here by my Dr after I began suffering muscle spasms in my lower back. The spasms had to do with a cycling related injury so the circumstances were unique. I went to the office on Superior in Newport and was treated by Alan. Alan was very straightforward and said that he uses Chinese acupressure and a combo of traditional PT techniques. You're not going to find a bunch of fancy equipment here but what I found instead was almost instant relief. Accupressure is working for me. After 3 visits I got the okay to hit the gym again and I'm hoping ill be back on my bike by the end of January. I don't know why the other reviews are so harsh but they are mis-categorized and are different offices. I highly recommend Pegasus, they will definitely treat you right. read more

Dr. Alan Cheng and his staff are amazing. I started going to Pegasus after my microdisectomy. I had a servere disc herniation. The advice and physical therapy treatments I received were an integral part of my recovery. Alan totally gets it since he's also a competitive athlete. Most doctors and physical therapists will just tell you to stop what you're doing. When you're a competitive dancer or athlete, stopping is not an option. I've very active in aerial fitness and dance. Alan researched and watched videos of aerial fitness in order to fully understand the mechanics of what I was doing. Alan has given me the best advice on how to become a better and stronger dancer and avoid reinjury. I trust Alan wholeheartedly. If you're an athlete or dancer with aches, pain, or injury, Pegasus is the place for you. read more

I have been with Pegasus for a few years now. Alan Cheng is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He is extremely flexible and always puts the client first. Alan's goal is to get you back to normal, he will not waste your time. I highly recommend Pegasus Physical Therapy. read more

An Excellent Physical Therapy office, the staff are friendly,caring and knowledgeable. I injured my elbow in July 2015 and the road to recovery was a long one, I was released to resume normal activity at the end of December 2015 what a great gift and feeling of well being to face the New Year. I persevered and followed all the advice and recommendations Michael asked of me and now my elbow is back to normal. Thank you so very much, I highly recommend going the physical therapy rout and especialyl the staff at Pegasus Physical Therapy in Newport read more

I have battled with chronic back pain for over 12 years and recently underwent an SI joint fusion followed by a lumbar laminectomy 18 months later. I began my journey with Dr. Alan Cheng and his crew at Pegasus Physical Therapy after my first surgery and then chose to work with him again after my second surgery. Having seen various physical therapists throughout the years prior to my surgeries, my experience with Dr. Cheng has led me to conclude that he is beyond a doubt my best experience. Dr. Cheng, or "Alan" as he prefers to be called, is smart, knowledgeable, and responds to questions with valuable information that can be used beyond his care. What I value most about Alan is that with each visit he asks questions, makes assessments, and modifies treatment as necessary as opposed to the standard routine of events that I've experienced with other physical therapists with no modifications. Alan has a great team and yet he always has an eye on what everyone is doing and provides input when necessary. He is a good listener, caring, and your biggest advocate when you experience a setback (which is often common with back surgery). Dr. Alan Cheng has provided me with stellar care. He has strengthened my back, hips, and pelvis, provided me with a program I can continue with at home, and rekindled my sense of optimism as I navigate my physical health in the years to come. read more
