REVIEWS OF Symbio Physiotherapy - Physical Therapy IN New York

Gayathri Sriram

I've going to Veronica Cherne for almost a year for multiple injuries and I can say she's the best. No matter how serious your injury is, just follow as she says and it's magic! She's always been kind, patient and she's thorough in what she does. She's very knowledgeable and keeps you well informed on your condition. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Dom Galeano

I came into Symbio with a bad shoulder from fighting. In the four months with Karan I gained back stability and full range of motion. He took his time, was patient, and helped me get back to doing what I love full time. Couldn't have asked for a better PT. His knowledge is vast and he makes you put the work in to get the results. Can't recommend a better person to help you get better.

Kelly Button

Prior to my first visit at Symbio Physiotherapy, I suffered from stiffness in my back & neck. I noticed marked improvement in my symptoms after just one visit. Now, after just less than two months of treatment, I feel & look like a new person! My stiffness is gone, my posture is better, and my head no longer tilts to the side! The dedication of Dr. Joshua Park is amazing. He's knowledgeable and he takes the time to explain to me where my problem areas are. Upon thorough evaluation he carefully selects effective manual techniques and corrective exercises. The improvements that I've seen to my body have been encouraging. I highly recommend Symbio Physiotherapy!

Cassi Mendez

Symbio has been so kind to me. Karan helped me get better from a sprained ankle injury; helping me improve my balance and strengthen my legs. He will really listen to what is hurting you and help make it feel better. He's a great person overall and will definitely make your physical therapy experience more enjoyable. All the other physical therapists that I met were also very sweet.

Michael Garcia

It is a great vibe in the office. Everyone is very nice and helpful. They have many good and experienced therapists. I have been with Karen Datta for about 6 months he has been very good and challenges me to get better.

Daniel Abowd

I've been working with Karan Datta for about three months, after my podiatrist suggested that a foot injury might be stemming from deeper flexibility and stability issues, and I am wrapping up my PT treatment soon. While I am certainly very happy and grateful that Karan has helped me fully heal my foot injury, while also making significant improvements in flexibility, balance, stability, and strength areas that I wasn't even aware were weaknesses before coming to Symbio, I am also legitimately sad to be finishing! It has been a joy to work with Karan. He is truly a caring guy, and a contentious listener. He works hard both to cater his treatment to your specific needs and goals, and to make sure your experience is as valuable, enjoyable, fun, and sustainable as possible. All of the staff at Symbio are extremely kind and pleasant to work with, and while I believe that Karan has equipped me with tools that will allow me to thrive without active PT treatment for the extended foreseeable future, I am comforted knowing that if I do someday develop a new injury or condition that needs treatment, Symbio and Karan will only be a phone call away.

Anne Karle-Zenith

I started seeing Josh Park on the recommendation of my acupuncturist after stalling in recovery from bilateral hip replacement surgery. Josh has helped me address the issues and grow stronger, to the point where I am feeling close to full recovery. Josh is incredibly smart and attentive and works really hard to figure out and solve my physical puzzles. He also explains things clearly so I understand what is going on and what I can do to continue working on the issues on my own. Plus he has great energy and I always leave my appointments in a great mood! I highly recommend Josh and Symbio.

Kelli Capka

Symbio Physiotherapy was fantastic in every way. Once I finally got prescribed physical therapy with approval from my insurance company, Symbio was able to get me in right away for a consultation with Karan Datta. They have a decent number of appointments outside normal office hours, including the coveted 7 AM time slot. The gym is super clean, and the individual appointment rooms are very nice, too. My first appointment consisted of an overall evaluation of what was happening with my body so we could plan the approach to fixing it. As we went through appointments, Karan was very attentive to any changes in the pain and how to proceed. Each appointment was a one-on-one session lasting 45 minutes. By the end of the PT, I felt better than ever, and I have an exercise plan to keep me pain-free going forward. Even though my knee was the primary reason for the physical therapy, my chronic back pain from an old injury subsided, which was a welcome bonus. Everyone at the office was a pleasure to work with, including the therapists, the front desk (shout-out to Evan for smiling at 7 am), and the billing department (thanks to Nick for clearing up some insurance questions for me). You will be doing yourself a disservice by going anywhere else.

Nadia K

My experience with Symbio has been excellent. Everything from scheduling appointments, to insurance matters, to my actual therapy appointments have been great. The front desk staff are always polite and welcoming, and the office is always clean and comfortable. I've been seeing Veronica for almost two months for a running-related injury, and she's been amazing -- very thoughtful, thorough, and genuinely listens to what I'm feeling to make sure that she can properly diagnose the issue prescribe exercises and solutions. It really feels like a collaborative process. I was really upset when I first developed my injury. Having an injury that disrupts your physical activity can be really hard, mentally, but having a physical therapist that is invested in you getting better and makes sure you are part of that process is very comforting. I highly recommend Symbio.

Greg Plumb

I have been going to Symbio and seeing Karan Datta for over a year now and in my opinion they are the best in the city. I am an endurance / Ironman athlete so I am constantly putting my body through a high degree of stress - Karan not only helps me get back to peak fitness when I am injured but helps me strengthen my body to prevent injury in the first place. Karan is an incredible PT - knowledgeable, intuitive, methodical, and empathetic. I cannot endorse him more highly, five stars!

Nahal Shakib

Working with Karan Datta has been amazing!! He is so patient and has given me so many strategies to help make sure that I'm making progress. He truly practices what I'd recognize as a whole body approach and any time my friends complain about their back too I recommend him right away! On top of it all, Karan is a super great person overall so look no further you've found your PT :)

Angelique Dalton

I went to see Karan Datta at Symbio after around 4 months of very bad back pain due to muscle strain from a bulging disc in my lower back. I was feeling very hopeless and had tried everything else with no relief (acupuncture, chiropractic, CBD, stretching etc). I went around 2-3 times a week for a couple of months and saw an immense difference. Karan literally gave me my life back. He gave me at home exercises that were reasonable and made a huge difference in my range of movement and pain levels. I am so so so happy to say that now I am pain free and comfortable doing all the activities i feared I would NEVER be able to do again. He was incredibly patient, approachable and fun to chat with during sessions. Everyone who works in the office is absolutely lovely as well. Highly recommend!

Nic D'Sposito

Symbio is easily the best PT facility in NY. I have a whole host of issues with my body that I basically just gave up on and began living with the pain as though it were normal, and after continual treatment by both Chad & Stavros I have noticed an immense change in my body and the way it feels and the way different bones and muscles interact with each other. I have significantly less pain on a daily basis, and now understand the symbiotic relationship that, for example, my neck has with my hips and my hips with my feet. Lisa at the front is an absolute dream to work with, and the entire staff as a whole is top-notch. It doesn't feel like PT when I'm at PT, and in the best possible way. I am in the NY professional medical world myself, and knowing every physician and practice in this city I can say with confidence that Symbio is among the best of the best.

Courtney Kelly

Josh is a great PT! I would highly recommend him. He is incredibly knowledgeable and has helped me immensely, and taught me ways on how I can continue to make my body better. I also laugh hysterically during our sessions because he is such a cool guy! Go see Josh! Go to Symbio!

Michaeli

This place is really wonderful. After bad motorcycle back injury. I was googling the BEST physical therapy I couldn’t find. And honestly I didn’t believe anyone could really help me with the pain I was experiencing. After 4/5 sessions I almost was brand new, I couldn’t believe it. Veronica and Karaan are both super intelligent and unique people that really helped me. The entire team there- from the receptionist to the manager are super nice, professional and just a pleasure to work with. Again thank you guys I really appreciated everything you did!!!! Veronica Karan Steven Maria You guys are the best.

Sukhpreet Singh

I had Stravos as my physical therapist. At first when I initially started the treatment I thought he was just torturing me so much that my attention was no longer on my lower back pain, which had been going on for a year. However, I soon realized everything he was doing was helping a lot. There is no wait time, you come in when you are scheduled. Everyone is very nice and are there to help you get better. After struggling with lower back pain for so long, Stravos was able to find the underlying cause that no other physical therapist or chiropractor could and has helped me decreased my back pain significantly. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Paul Gray

One word - amazing. I have been to different PT with decent results but went to Stavros thru a recommendation. It was truly eye-opening. In my first visit, he corrected a decade-old problem that frustrated other PTs! I was blown away. I'm also seeing an accelerated pace on other issues and really happy with the progress. Go here if you value your time and want to get moving quickly and correctly!

Andrew Puig

I had a great experience here with Karan Datta and the entire staff. After diagnosing my issue, Dr. Datta gave me a treatment plan to help restore some muscles in my hip and back. I was surprised by how quickly I felt relief under his treatment. I highly recommend! Thanks Dr. D.

David Keyes

I have seen two people at Symbio – Karan (most recently) and Jackie – and both of them were adamantly focused on identifying ways to prevent future injuries. They looked beyond what was ailing me and found the root cause, and then gave me exercises to address those imbalances. It's been almost a year since my last injury despite increased physical activity over the past 6 months. With the annual physicals they provide, I feel like I'm in an even better position to catch things before they become a problem. Everyone should visit Symbio, with or without an injury! Tell Karan I said hi.

Daniel Vasquez

I came to Symbio PT after a year of pain and several different doctors giving me prescriptions that did not work. When one doctor ordered that I go to physical therapy for my arm injury I blindly set myself up with an appointment for a different physical therapy office. When I was referred to Symbio PT shortly after that, I cancelled my original appointment and called right away. To start, the staff are all downright amazing. From Lisa's wonderful smile and attentiveness at the front desk, to Jackie's gentle encouragement, Mike's knowledge and firm but gentle guidance, and then there is Stavros. Stavros' knowledge, technique, and easygoing personable demeanor has not only helped manage my pain but has pushed me to better myself with every session I see him. Every staff member at Symbio PT is clearly an expert in their field, and tailors each session to the needs of the specific patient. The levels of knowledge, care, and clear love for what each member of the team does is as clear as day as soon as you walk in the door. I honestly don't think I have ever not seen anyone, staff or patients, at Symbio PT not smiling, every time I go for my sessions. Chad Woodard runs an amazing practice full of downright amazing people, and I highly recommend Symbio PT over anyone else in a heartbeat.

Aaron Davitt

I've had an amazing experience over the past few months at Symbio and working with Stan helped put me on the path to healing. I have been suffering from chronic back pain and I previously went to another PT clinic where I barely had any individualized attention and received a cookie-cutter approach that did not help with my recovery and pain management. When I switched to Symbio, the difference compared to the other PT place was staggering. At Symbio, I received individualized care where Stan would take his time to assess my condition and work the back and leg muscles to loosen them up to relieve the pain. He would also give me exercises that I can continue on my own to strengthen my core. We would set goals to be completed be the next visit. If you follow Stan's, or any of the Symbio PT's recovery plans, you will heal. Being able to move my back without pain was made possible by Symbio PT. Every visit was a pleasant experience, a clean facility in a good location.The staff are nice and responsive. I highly recommend this place if you need to recover from an injury.

Annie Ugurlayan

I suffered from left calf pain and plantar fasciitis. My podiatrist recommended Chad and his team at Symbio.The care I received was superlative - I worked mostly with Mike and he is not only extremely knowledgeable but caring too. Thanks to intensive PT, a new running form and strength training, I ran my first half-marathon in two years. I cannot thank Mike and Chad enough! You are the best and I would them and Symbio to anyone!

Brian Reitz

Felt very comfortable throughout my recovery process. Karan is incredibly personable and makes potentially painful sessions go by quickly. Hopefully I never have to but if I re-injure myself or ever require PT again, I'll definitely be back

I hurt my ankle really bad last September. I've been an athlete my whole life and was worried when I couldn't shake the daily pain from my ankle months after my injury. Karan, who ended up being my physical therapist, took one look at my ankle told me that even though my ankle looked to be healed, I was still experiencing pain because of the poor posture of my ankle. He gave me simple daily exercises to do at home before my sessions that helped me to utilize my surrounding muscles to alleviate the stress on my ankle. Needless to say, at the end of my 2 sessions a week for 3 months, I was jumping around, squatting more weight than I ever had, and feeling confident in my lateral movements while playing basketball. Symbio is much more than just a physical therapy clinic. As a client I was always greeted by Lisa's contagious laughter and Karan's corny humor. Every single one of their physical therapists are incredibly passionate about their work. They are constantly learning about new ways and techniques to treat patients, they volunteer their time into lots of different great causes, and most importantly they are genuinely interested in the well-being of their patients. I will 100% go back if have any other injuries.

Jacoby Pruitt

Symbio is a dancers saving grace! Chad has employed the best staff (I see Veronica and Stan) who have mastered not only how to pinpoint a problem but also diagnose and fix it all within the short time you’re on the their table. As a dancer who performs regularly and basically destroys my body I always leave feeling put back together and with the tools and knowledge I need to keep the problem solved and take on the world! Thanks so much Symbio ❤️!

Andrew Andrew

Symbio Physiotherapy, their staff and more specifically Michael Oaks is an excellent option for physical therapy. Michael is quite knowledgeable has done wonders to help me regain strength and flexibility in my arm after surgery for lateral epicondylitis, or as it's commonly known as tennis elbow. I highly recommend Symbio for your physical therapy needs.

Reese Soco

Mike at Symbio is an amazing physiotherapist - he's very knowledgeable, caring, and encouraging, and makes the exercises fun. He's worked with me in improving my running form and prevented injuries in the process. I also appreciate his mind-body approach. Overall I would highly recommend Mike and all the folks at Symbio - the facility is clean and accessible and everyone is a pleasure to work with!

Travis Hawkins

The one on one attention and support I get from the staff at Symbio is amazing. They don't simply treat injuries. They observe bodies in motion and treat the whole body to repair and prevent future issues. As a professional Triathlete I have worked with the staff at Symbio to recover from injuries, prevent future injuries and most importantly improve quality of movement to increase performance. As a Coach and personal trainer, I trust the staff at Symbio to work with all of my athletes.

Anna Thomas-Henry

As a professional aerialist and acrobat I know that maintaining my body, constantly re-educating it, pushing it and looking for education along the way are all mandatory tasks. After running through a slew of less-than satisfactory PTs in NYC I have been relieved to find that Veronica at Symbio is up to the task. She is full of knowledge that she shares liberally, constantly re-evaluates our work together and works easily with the demands of my full on life as an artist/athlete. Meeting and working with Veronica at Symbio has been a wonderful relief!

Jeremy T. Villas

I had the pleasure to being a client for Veronica and she was amazing. She was very experienced with what she was doing and examined me to the best of her ability to access my issues. The PT exercises were extremely helpful and healed me so quickly. I think Symbio PT is an amazing organization and would recommend this to many people.

Taylor Nischan

Veronica has been the most helpful with my shoulder injury. She is so incredibly knowledgeable and is helping me tackle my injury in every possible way. From posture correction, chiropractic adjustments, muscle release, and conditioning exercises, I am finally feeling relief and noticing a difference. I look forward to my weekly appointments.

Alan Slatas

I had shoulder surgery and Neil was my PT, I can't say enough about the professionalism of this group. During the course of my PT I had to see two other PT's in this group that fit into my schedule better. They all knew the background and took the time to make the best of my session. This office is much different than many of the other PT offices that cycle people through, You are with your PT the entire 45 minutes, no aids that do the exercises with you. They work the injured area, and help you deal with the painful recovery. Back to Neil, he pushed me at the same time made sure I did not push to much. He is extremely knowledgeable, and understand the anatomy of the body. He was open to some of the eastern medicine concepts and Yoga that I wanted to incorporate into my recovery. And the front desk is so easy to deal with, such a pleasant experience. Alan

Emily Moser

I've been going here to see Veronica Cherne for a few months now, and all I can say are good things. I originally came because of stiff shoulders, and have come in for a multitude of random injuries and pains since. I practice aerial arts and am constantly getting hurt, so it's great to find a PT I trust. I keep coming back because 1) Veronica is amazing, and it's deeply satisfying to tell someone about this pain in your arm/back/side and after a thorough inspection getting an EXACT answer about what's happening, 2) I've gotten amazing improvement on everything I've brought in, 3) the front desk staff is friendly and so so welcoming.

Guillermo Bravo

Comfortable and efficient clinic. I personally made unexpectedly fast progress than was expected after surgery thanks to Stavros, one of their PTs.

Ignacio Maza

Michael Oakes at Symbio is the best physical therapist I have ever met. He is caring, knowledgeable, helpful, and best of all - effective. I was in great pain due to plantar fasciitis earlier this year, and I am feeling much better. Michael cares about his patients and goes to great lengths to come up with a plan that will make you well again. I highly recommend Michael and Symbio Physiotherapy! "Best in class" in New York.

Stefanie Jubert

To whoever you are, in whatever pain you are suffering with in dealing with an injury or injuries, I hope for you the best of recovery and to get better soon. When sustaining a severely injured ankle I was fortunate to be referred to Symbio PT and be placed in the care of Mike Oakes who greatly helped me emotionally and physically as he was sincerely encouraging and genuinely passionate about giving his patients the best of physical therapy. It is such an honor and pleasure to be in his care. As a client your injury is treated with mindfulness and respectfulness towards you as an individual to best help you recover. Now when I am out and about on my recuperated ankle it truly feels like I’m walking on sunshine and have a new spring in my step. I couldn’t feel more blessed to have been treated at such an amazing physical therapy facility of gifted physical therapists. Thank you Dr. Oakes and to the rest of the Symbio PT team for caring so much to help your clients get better!

I never thought that I would look forward to going to physical therapy but Jacqueline M has made me a convert! Not only do I get relief from what ails me (mostly neck/shoulder issues), but she does it with such an infectious smile as well! Love her! Truth be told, everyone on the team makes you feel like a part of the family tho! Thanks everyone!!

Ryan Mallen

Nice, new, clean facility with very helpful staff. I worked with Josh Park as my PT for over two months and saw a significant increase in my mobility and strength concurrent with a reduction in pain (I suffer from chronic back pain). As opposed to many other PT places, Symbio uses one-on-one care, meaning it is just you and your PT working together for your 45-minute session. This is a far superior method to conventional group PT (I've done both), and allows for the PT to conduct manual therapy that is specific to your needs. Josh went above and beyond, creating a personalized workout plan for me to continue my strengthening after he was done treating me. Josh and I also consulted with some of the other staff regarding my condition; they all seemed very knowledgable and professional. In addition to being well trained, the staff are all active multi-faceted athletes, and seem to be very passionate about fitness and their respective endeavors. Highly recommend!

Giacomo Cresti

My neck is a mess. A couple of years ago, after 2 decades of competitive Judo and weight lifting, my neck started acting up (quite understandable). When the discomfort started having an impact in my day-to-day life, I decided to have it checked. Luckily, there was no structural damage, or any sign of osteoarthritis (yet). However, since the diagnosis was inconclusive, I was never given specific instructions on how to improve my condition. I was labeled with "muscle stiffness", and sent to PT for a few weeks. Although I was under the care of a couple of different PT studios, it didn't go well. I did get a lot of neck massages (which I thoroughly enjoyed, I must say), but not much more than basic static stretching, and very few instructions on what to do on my own. I'm a fitness professional and an educator, so I know the importance of doing my PT homework, and was surprised that I was never given any direction on how to help improve my condition on my own. I was treated with superficiality, and quite frankly had the impression that those PTs wanted to stretch my condition (and the copay) as long as they could. Needless to say, when I realized that I wasn't improving, I discontinued my relationship with them. The problem didn't go away, though, so my search for a better PT care continued. When I heard about the brand new Symbio Physiotherapy, I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did. Under the care of Chad Woodard, my discomfort immediately started to improve. His whole body/mind approach was perfect of me, and I always felt that I was followed 1-on-1, which is very rare in today's PT studios... where you get checked for a couple of minutes every now and then. To my purposes, his work was nothing short of spectacular. I was shown exercises that were very different than the few I was previously given. Because of my profession, I could tell that his expertise was on a different level than the PTs I tried before him. One thing I particularly appreciated about Chad is his educational background, and his commitment to show you the way to continue to improve on your own. Chad doesn't work to keep you dependent on his care, but rather wants to do everything he can for you to improve as soon as possible... and always with a refreshing sense of humor. Because of my occupation, I routinely need the care of a PT, and I have always struggled to find that professional that would fill that empty spot on my contact list. Now, with Chad, I finally have that checked.

KaizerBenji

I was having shoulder issues that was limiting my ability to lift weights and exercise. After seeing Dr. Joe Turcic several times he has helped resolve the issues and I will continue to see him to insure they don’t return or any other issues appear.

Clement Gomes

Amazing team of PT's! Friendly, caring, and with the aim to make your better!

Nancy Lee

All of the Symbio physiotherapists are an amazing and talented team of clinicians led by Dr. Chad Woodard, but Dr. Joshua Park is my therapist, and I find him to be particularly knowledgeable and skilled compared to the other PT's I've worked with (before Symbio). I've lived with chronic back pain for many years now and sought treatment through many avenues including surgery. I've seen many different types of practitioners in that time. I find that the Symbio team really knows what they're about, and I've experienced marked improvement during the course of my treatment. I can't say enough good things. Just go. They will help you.

Ryan McWilliams

I absolutely love the people at Symbio. You can tell that everyone there is concerned for your health. Karan is the first Physical Therapist that not only looked at and helped me with my neck both pre and post neck surgery. But took a whole body approach to my health and looked to address the issues with my body that could have lead to my injury, so that it won't happen again. I have a very physical job as both a Broadway Hairdresser and a Private Sommelier and have seen multiple Physical Therapist over the years, Symbio is the only place I will be going from now on.

Emma C

Scheduling and going to Symbio is made very easy; Veronica at Symbio has been extremely helpful in helping with my chronic bulging disc. The model of being one-on-one with a therapist for 45 minutes has made a huge difference in my recovery; this type of attention is not something that often happens at other p/t places in NYC. I highly recommend!

Paul Racine

Chad Woodard at Symbio Physiotherapy has been a personal trainer to me since mid-January 2016. I was a skinny, 68 year-old, gym-naïve man and under his guidance and watchful eye I have gained muscle, strength, and endurance that have greatly enhanced my recreational running and my health and fitness in general. Side benefit of engaging a physical therapist as a trainer: you get some PT attention when needed for your problem areas. Symbio PT just moved into a fabulous new space that includes a fully-outfitted gym. I've interacted with most of the staff at Symbio and they're all great. Highly recommended for both physiotherapy and strength training!

Deanna Schneider

I love Symbio! I started seeing Joe when I developed some hip discomfort while training for the marathon. He was awesome and caring and took a really thoughtful holistic approach to diagnosing my discomfort and developing a plan to get me better. In November not only did I complete the marathon, but I finished under my goal time and felt amazing afterwards!!! I couldn't have done any of that without Joe's help and expertise. I'm convinced he was the key to not only my awesome performance but also my amazingly easy recovery. If you're looking for an amazing group of PTs (and super awesome staff!) to partner with you to help you be your best and achieve your goals, Symbio can't be beat.

Christine Pellicano

I can't say enough about what an incredible place Symbio Physiotherapy is. I've been to PT for numerous issues over the years, but I have never been in a more professional, caring, and thoughtful environment. My therapist, Karan Data, considered all aspects of my condition, and helped me get to a place of true healing, something that was missing from every other PT experience I have had in the past. Scheduling appointments was easy and flexible, and the support staff was kind and communicative.

Jane Kim

I've been going to Symbio for treatment for my shoulder, and this is one of those few times when I'll say the pain was worth it. Chad and Michael took the time to de-mystify certain medical terminology for me -- terms that some doctors would use to give me the impression that if I don't get surgery, my arm would pop off my shoulder. It sounds silly, but have you ever played with legos? All jokes aside, they took the time to examine my pain thoroughly to really get to the root of my pain, which, to my surprise, wasn't just from my tear but from a lovely combination of my lazy and overprotective body trying to compensate for my injury! I guess I can't really stay mad at myself for too long. And being a non-hugger, I was initially nervous about all the physical contact physical therapy would require... do I work less hard at work before my appointment so I don't sweat as much (it was in the middle of summer), do I not bike and just try to walk in the shade on my way to symbio, should I bring a change of clothes, how long and how much and how far will they touch me, and finally, the silliest but realest question on my mind (real for me at least): is touching really necessary? That being said, and anxieties expressed, everyone was so professional, and they made me feel as if it was natural to have hands digging into my armpits to create pain in places I've never known an armpit could experience. If Sheryl Crow thought the first cut was the deepest, she's never undergone physical therapy for a bicepetal tendinitis. Or whatever my condition was called. And even though my entire arm, back, and shoulder blade felt numbed by the end of my first few experiences, I was surprised at how much more stable it felt, shakes and all! I appreciate everyone taking the time to thoroughly explain what's happening in my body and why I'm feeling pain the way I feel, and it's certainly refreshing when my previous experiences have been against medical jargon I can't understand, and only being led to assume that my pain came from one source and required only one treatment (surgery). I love that I now better understand (a teensy bit more) my body and am excited for all future patients who will also leave symbio feeling physically better, but also more enlightened about their body and their pain. They definitely strive not only to treat their patients, but to start a movement towards more self-awareness in all aspects of life. Cool stuff.

Gabbie de Lara

I always look forward to my sessions at Symbio! The team is super friendly and great company, and the space is always clean and tidy. The folks at the front desk are helpful in-person and by phone. This was my first PT experience and I went in with a running injury as a result of overtraining. I worked with Karan who guided me through the recovery process with great skill, attention, patience and kindness. He carefully assessed my symptoms each session and identified the root cause of my pain. From there, he built a well-rounded plan for strengthening, stability and prevention. After four months, he graduated me with an at-home program to continue the progress we made together. Karan was a real pleasure to work with - his positivity and sense of humor did not make it feel like work!

Nicholas Santo

I've been a patient of Symbio Physiotherapy for about five months now under the care their physiotherapist Stan, and I have to comment on the outstanding care I've received in this short time. From my first visit and, every appointment since I have been welcomed warmly by all the staff and therapists I have been receiving therapy for my neck and with my ongoing Sciatica of my lower back. Stan approached the situation with a full Evaluation of the current state of my neck and back. After our first appointment, Stan created a course of care for me. He comes to each session prepared and understanding of my needs with new techniques/treatments. Since starting my treatment at Symbio, the state of my neck and back have approved 3 times over. I can't thank them enough for their outstanding service. I would and have recommended Symbio Physiotherapy to anyone who is looking for top-notch care.

Ayla Weisz

I have had an incredible experience at Symbio! My therapist, Veronica, has accelerated my recovery from surgery tremendously. Her program considered my needs as a circus performer and cyr wheel artist and has me to training what I love. The front desk /admin staff has also been wonderful to work with, always helpful and friendly. I'm so grateful to Symbio for making top level treatment available to the arts community.

Leigh Sugar

The folks at Symbio are truly angels. I've been seeing Veronica and Stavros for several months for some unusual neurologic symptoms, and they've consistently gone above and beyond to come up with innovative approaches to helping me. I have seen numerous doctors and physical therapists, and many just shrug their shoulders and say "I don't know." Veronica and Stavros are generous, thoughtful, creative, deeply knowledgable, and humble. When they aren't sure what to do next, they are transparent and then seek the appropriate resources. I cannot recommend them enough.

very good practitioners. overall feel this place is top notch especially chad.

Eden White

My experience working with Symbio thus far has been fantastic. They were able to see me for a consultation the day after I called — something that never happens in New York! — and on a path to healing immediately. Veronica has been great. Her bedside manner is fantastic, she's incredibly thorough and knowledgable of her field, and in just a few sessions I'm already seeing incredible progress. Thank you, Symbio!

I have been a patient of Dr. Joe Turcic’s since last summer and it’s one of the best decisions I have ever made for my body and physical well-being. I came to Symbio with an overuse injury and hip alignment issues that had me suffering for multiple years prior. I had seen other PT’s and trainers and no one fully understood the issue or knew how to fix it. With Joe I felt immediately that I was in good hands. He listened intently and asked in-depth questions in order to identify the source and cause of my injury/pain. Joe developed a holistic, multi-faceted treatment plan which has helped me make huge strides in my recovery – continuing to gain more strength and mobility every day. His knowledge and intuitiveness is what truly sets his care apart. With Joe and the entire Symbio team, I feel like I continue to receive the support and education I need to keep improving. I would (and have) recommend Joe to anyone! Game-changer!

Chad and the team at SymbioPT are incredible. I've worked mostly with Chad who is very knowledgable, super talented, and has magical fingers and elbows that will heal any ache, pain, or muscular imbalance. Chad does a thorough evaluation of the cause of the problem and will recommend exercise to help correct it. The space is new, full of light, clean, and everyone is super friendly. Highly recommended.

Jonathan Franchell

I love Symbio! Veronica is the best.

Rebecca Margolick

I love Symbio PT. I have worked with Chad, Veronica and Jackie, and I know the rest of the team is fantastic as well through my colleagues that are clients at Symbio as well. As a professional dancer, they have helped me through my chronic injuries / pain and are attentive and honest I love that they take a look at the entire body as a whole, not just the affected area, to really see what's going on in your alignment or imbalances. They use a range of methods to address your needs and explain to you exactly what they're doing, so you really learn what's going on as well. I highly highly recommend going to Symbio! They are also all incredibly warm and friendly, and make me feel at ease in their care.

Rachel Atcheson

Incredibly hard working folks determined to fix up my body! Love them!

Wilson Arango

Excellent is the only word I can think of to describe my experience with Symbio Physiotherapy. Not only is the entire staff refreshingly friendly and efficient, but my therapist (Stavros) was also very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely be referring my patients as well as colleagues and friends to Symbio Physiotherapy.

Alan Twaddle

I saw Dr. Turcic about 6 months ago with pain and postural issues stemming from a desk job, biking, and olympic lifting; had problems with my hip, knee, and upper back. Not only am I now 90% fully recovered I have learned the invaluable thought processes behind their methods, making it much easier to self-treat and prevent further injuries. Now that the pain is gone Dr. Turcic and I are working on perfecting my form and correcting the strength and flexibility imbalances that have been building up for years. On another note: the front desk is the fastest I've ever dealt with and all of their staff is very charismatic. Nice and clean setup, too. I've been skeptical of all medical professionals, especially those in the field of PT, and I finally feel at ease knowing that SymBio knows what they're doing and they want to make sure you never have to come back for treatment again.

Karan is the best...2 shoulder injuries & he's pulling out the kinks...making a huge difference

Glenn Davis

Symbio Physiotherapy is a great PT organization. Upon the recommendation of a friend, I went to Symbio with a physical injury that had for way-too-long negatively impacted my everyday routine. After a number of sessions with and coaching from my physical therapist, Veronica, I am well on my way to fully rehabilitating that injury. Symbio's facility is top notch -- it is comfortable, clean and full of the equipment necessary for multiple types of physical therapy. The staff at Symbio is superlative. Veronica is simply amazing at what she does. The front desk handles scheduling and billing quickly and efficiently. Every staff member at Symbio is friendly, courteous and helpful. I highly recommend Symbio Physiotherapy to anyone who is in need of effective, reasonably priced PT in NYC from a very talented group of professional physical therapists.

Jeffrey Donato

Dr. Turcic did a great job of pinpointing the source of my shoulder pain. He gave me simple but effective exercises and within a month I felt better than I had in years. I would highly recommend this program, particularly Dr. Turcic, to anyone dealing with physical pain that is keeping them from working out like they used to or performing household tasks. They are seem to enjoy their jobs and really care for their patients.

Rich H

The most knowledgeable PT staff in NYC. chad is like the yoda of physical therapy while Mike is the obi-wan kenobi. Combined they are a unstoppable force that will keep you moving

Paul Munkholm

Best care I've gotten for a chronic neck condition. Stavros takes the time to really understand the problem and comes up different solutions. And he's very personable and easy to talk to.

Croft Vaughn

I came in for PT on my knee. The experience of the team is robust. Chad Woodward was able to provide a focused diagnosis and simple, progressive stretches and exercises to remediate the pain and retrain the muscle groups to fire correctly. I'm extremely pleased with my results. I highly recommend this group.

Yael Gordon

I came to this stellar clinic after breaking my foot and had a great experience! Dr. Karan Datta is punctual, personable, and proficient. I had pain relief and felt like I was moving better due to Karan's magic hands and clinical expertise.

Christina Vitt

Since I have a chronic injury, I've spent years going to PT across the city. Nothing worked for me until fate brought me to Symbio. From the moment that I met Jacqui, I knew that I had finally found a place that could help me. Jacqui has dramatically reduced my pain and has me doing activities that I never thought I'd do again. Thank you, Jacqui and Symbio, for giving me my life back!

Div Arora

I had an _amazing_ experience with Yuval. I saw dramatic improvements in my condition (pertaining to one of my knees) in under a month of working with him. My only regret is that I didn't get to work with him longer (I had to leave NYC), and that I didn't go to him sooner. I loved that Yuval took a very-insofar as it is possible for a non-professional to discern-scientific approach towards diagnosing and fixing my issues. More importantly, he would share his hypothesis at each step of the process, and helped me understand how each of the exercises or motions he was prescribing aided in the confirmation (& resolution) of said hypothesis. This was extremely different from PT I had been to in the past for the same issue, and helped me to apply the lessons in other aspects of daily living that we hadn't necessarily discussed. Furthermore, Yuval goes more than the extra mile in caring about ensuring the best outcome. I had to move after only a few weeks with him and go on an extended road-trip, and Yuval drew up a completely revamped home exercise programme that I could perform without requiring any specialized equipment. He also made sure that he was reachable over multiple means of communications in case I ever had any questions outside the sessions (or whilst on the road). Oh, and he (and the entire staff at Symbio) were extremely nice and caring throughout the entire process, that I've just imbibed it as the new normal, and not something worth mentioning. Bottom line-at the end of a week or two with Yuval, I was able to start going about life without experiencing the extreme discomfort I used to, or needing to optimize my life around minimizing walking/stairs/*.

Christy Kokami

Stavros Vouyiouklis is fantastic!!! I saw him for an sacral injury that happened 2 months prior. In one appointment, he got my body back into alignment and alleviated the nagging pain that I had while walking (not to mention when I was in my yoga poses). The myofascial releases can be painful but his bright and cheerful personality takes the edge off. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is very knowledgeable about his field of expertise. I left my appointment in such a great mood and my body felt great! I highly recommend seeing Stavros!

Tyler Holdren

I've had a great experience at SymbioPT. My therapist is extremely professional, prompt, and well-versed in their field and it's apparent in their quality of care. What I appreciate most about SymbioPT is that they are not formulaic in their approach to physical therapy. From my experience, they're very interested in addressing your specific needs and concerns during your office visit and are not tethered to any specific plan. Because of this, patients receive a high-quality, tailored therapy session focused on addressing their individual needs. In addition to office visits, I've received countless exercises to do own which has helped expedite my recovery. I would recommend it absolutely anyone looking for injury recovery.

Brian Theis The Infinite Feast

Karan Datta is the physical therapy MAESTRO of the universe! he has COMPLETELY fixed the OMG pain in my foot, fixed my golfer's elbow (excuse me?! i totes don't play golf) and now my bum knee. yes i have that many messed up bits. but with Karan in my life, i can afford to mess up a bunch more!

Fran Castaldo

I was diagnosed with Parkinson's, have spinal stenosis with bulging and herniated discs in my back. I was a mess to say the least. I wasn't able to walk alone, bathe, walk down the stairs or just function. Then I was introduced to Dr. Vouyiouklis. There isn't enough kind words to explain what this man has done for me. He gave me back my life. He's a miracle worker. His patience and dedication has allowed me the ability to walk on my own, to go up and down the stairs, to function like everyone else. He doesn't treat you as if you are broken or incapable of doing things. What he does do is encourage you and shows you that you are able to do things if you try. Yes, it's difficult, but in the end you feel great! Stavros now has me lifting weights, boxing and accomplishing things I once was afraid to do because of my disability. If you need a physical therapist call Stavros at Symbio. He's not only great at what he does, he's good eye candy.

Cori Ward

Symbio provides a personal, professional and comfortable atmosphere and I had a fantastic experience here. After attending a different clinic in the city and having a negative experience, I came to Symbio in desperate need of a professional who I felt comfortable working with. As I recovered from an ACL tear, I attended Symbio almost weekly for roughly 5 months and I enjoyed each visit and the friendly staff. My therapist, Chad, was incredibly respectful and always made sure any questions were answered and that I fully understood the recovery process we were working through. I am now back in action after my 5 months of sessions and my leg feels great thanks to Symbio! They truly care about their patients and I highly recommend them to anyone.

Kelly Maina

After getting sidelined by a running injury several years ago, a trusted coach and friend encouraged me to go see Chad. I have since followed him to Symbio, where he continues to provide an unparalleled level of knowledge, care and expertise. He helped me improve my running gait and together we even ceremoniously ditched my orthotics (which I'd been wearing for years and that were, in fact, doing me more harm than good). Most recently I went to him for a follow-up for some nagging hip pain (unrelated to running), and while he could have easily just treated the hip (which would have worked in the short term), he took the time to look beyond my hip and discovered that it was tension in a totally other part of my body (my JAW, of all places!) that was causing the hip discomfort. And once we treated the root cause (the jaw), the hip pain disappeared... literally... without him even touching my hip. It was nothing short of voodoo genius magic. Every time I walk out of an appointment with Chad, I not only feel better physically, but I also feel empowered because I've been given information I can use to take better care of myself. He is a practitioner who truly listens to what you're saying and what your body is telling him. I can't say enough good things about Chad and the folks at Symbio.

Heather Cleary

Mike Oakes is the best physiotherapist ever! He is incredibly knowledgeable and truly works with you to heal your body holistically. I’m so glad to have found Mike to help with the issues that I’ve been having. Additionally, he is a lovely person to speak with generally, so I find it’s just an overall great experience. As long as I live in NYC, I will be a client of his!

Rie

Symbio is absolutely amazing! I’ve been to a few PT facilities over the years but none that left such a positive impression. On my first visit I met Lisa who made me feel so welcome and was always so thorough in all my communications with her. I was assigned to Stavros who was a gem. It only took a few sessions before I was back to myself. I was aware of the benefits of manual techniques but knew most PT places don’t provide that service. At Symbio, the personal, hands on, patient centered approach there is top notch, providing you with 45 minutes of personal attention in helping you achieve your goals to better health. Both manual techniques coupled with strengthening exercises helped me achieve pain free mobility and I am most grateful to Stav for helping me get there so quickly. Stav was very friendly and personable and always gave me reason to laugh, which makes getting better so much more pleasant and endurable. Symbio has a very innovative approach to the health and well-being of the patient and I would highly recommend their facility without hesitation. Wishing you all the best!

Cin Chun

Josh is the best of all of the PTs I've ever worked with (and I have worked with a lot). I have chronic neck pain - worst on the left, which was further aggravated by breastfeeding. I have tension in the neck shoulder area; he uses the graston tool and manual therapy to help release those tensions that I wouldn't be able to release myself. I remember thinking, in my first session as he worked my leather hard and tense neck and shoulder muscles, "Wow, he is really strong!" Every session, I feel like I get a little bit better. The exercises he gives me really do help me manage my pain. Josh is so positive and friendly, I admire how deeply devoted he is to his patients.

Alex Wen

I've had an amazing experience here over the past year and working with Mike is truly awesome! Before finding Symbio PT, I only used physical therapy for any pain issues that came up periodically. As a musician and runner, I found myself transformed with their help through working out any occupational stress of playing/performing and optimizing so many areas of my running and working out. I love our sessions here because Mike is incredibly easy to talk to with your concerns and goals. At the beginning, I brought them plenty of neck, shoulder/back, and foot issues that were unpredictably intermittent. After alleviating practically all of it through physical therapy at the office and bringing home simple, quick, daily exercises, Mike has really helped me ‘graduate’ to optimizing my results through strength training to holistically improve both areas as a musical performer and someone who runs quite a few races now! What I appreciate most is his listening, attention to detail, incredible knowledge (and ease of sharing it with you), and the ability to talk about related goals such as diet and nutrition to support all your physical goals. I feel stronger and more encouraged every time I visit them to reach for another PR or goal (and I’d say they had a part in so many of those achievements already)! The facility and the gym area is great: well-equipped, clean, and comfortable. I look forward to my appointments with Symbio. The whole staff does a great job of keeping everything on-time while giving you the fullest experience in every minute of your appointment. They’re very flexible with scheduling and often work with you to find an appointment without a hint of rush or hassle. Always so pleasant to see them!

Michelle Conti

Symbio Physiotherapy is an incredible place. Amazing staff, clean environment and effective treatment. Every time I leave my appointment feeling like a new person. I have had several pains due to extreme and excessive workouts and they were treated and fixed within minutes. I have not had the pleasure of being treated by all the PT's there, but if you are seeing Stavros Vouyiouklis, you are in great hands (literally lol). Overall I highly recommend Symbio for any of your physical therapy needs whether its injuries, injury prevention or just a little TLC :)

Loren Condon

This place has been absolutely phenomenal. I started coming in a few weeks ago. I had woken up one day ~5 months ago with my left arm cold/numb with the numbness spreading to my face. The freak symptoms went away after a month, but then came back with a vengeance and I had enough sense to make an appointment here. Not only is the front desk attentive, friendly, and hilariously awesome, my PT has gone so far above and beyond. Stavros is the only reason I have had lasting progress. He's gone out of his way to do research between our appointments, he's with me the entire session as opposed to the heating pad and being left in a crowed room, and every session we are getting closer to nailing down what this freak injury is and modifying treatment. I've also met some of the other PT's and they're honestly all as attentive and knowledgeable. I'm excited to continue our progress and I highly recommend anyone in need of a PT to come here.

Joseph Turcic

I've been going to symbio to see Dr. Karan Datta for about a month now and have nothing but good things to say. The staff is friendly and accommodating, I am always seen on time for my appointment, you get one on one individual care and the main focus is placed on deciphering why you were injured in the first place as opposed to simply just treating the injured area. Can't wait to get back to competing in my sport and Karan is doing everything possible to ensure that happens.

Kenney Coleman

I had an amazing experience here. I injured my knee and as a track and field athlete I was devastated. My PT specialist here was very friendly and professional and helped relieve me of anybfears that I had about coming back and regaining my strength to be able to hurdle again. The studio is very clean with a professional and friendly environment. Everyone is so nice and its in the perfect location especially if you take the train into Penn Station. I highly recommend going to Symbio especially if you are a serious athlete.

Doug Tableman

If you want to escape pain, move easier, and feel better, Symbio is the place to be. The trainers are at the top of their game (shout out to Mike!), and show an enormous amount of respect to their clients. I have been in and out of PT for years, and Symbio blows everyone else out of the water. Even after solving one of my longest running problems (low back pain), I am excited to continue training at Symbio to push the limits of what I can accomplish.

Stephen Churchville

Highly recommended. My experience at Symbio has been much better than previous physical therapy. In most p/t settings, a therapist spends a few minutes with you and then hands you off to one of an ever-changing pool of assistants to supervise your exercises for the rest of the session. At Symbio, you get the undivided attention of a dedicated therapist for the entire session. Working with a single therapist who knows my history, understands my goals, monitors my progress and provides consistent and focused feedback makes a BIG difference. I'm almost looking forward to my next injury.

Alma Rivera

I've needed physical therapy in the past but this has been a totally different experience. Symbio Physiotherapy's approach to physical therapy is focused on the patient getting one on one individualized treatment for the entire appointment. They don't leave you alone in a room for heat or cold therapy (which can honestly be done at home) or leave you to your own devices as you exercise. You feel like you are in a true partnership with your therapist. Michael Oakes has been a Godsend. I'm not athletic (to be honest, I'm out of shape & overweight) and I am middle aged so I thought I needed to resign myself to the daily pain and limitations of "old age". Michael has helped bring me back to a level of wellness that frees me to function without pain! For the first time in a long time, I believe I will be able to get back into shape. I can't thank Michael enough. I am so grateful that Chad Woodard established this wonderful team of healers! I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Neumilo Lee

Veronica is amazing. I had a back spasm that twisted my hip out of place. She kneaded it out, and I got better in two visits. She was very detailed in finding out the source of the problem. I definitely will be coming back and seeing her again for any problems I might encounter in the future. Thanks Symbio.

José Del Valle

Amazing staff, incredible knowledge from my friend and therapist Adam. Long been dealing with shoulder pain and from the first day he did the evaluation he star working on me, leaving the place pain free, from that day forward we approach every section targeting discomfort and strengthen my shoulder and muscle around. something I couldn't experience in other places. Am also recommence my friend Adam; professional and good humor too (LOL)…. Humble thanks to this place.

Thomas Chan

I get back pains pretty often, and I have never been to a physiotherapy so this was my first time but stavros was amazing he made me feel at home and after he did what he did I felt brand new this guy really knows what he's doing and very friendly I won't trust anyone else but him

Terri Wright

Veronica is fabulous. She was able to address all of my issues within 45 minutes. As a professional dancer, working with someone with this level of expertise is invaluable!

Mary Kalinosky

I had a great experience at Symbio. I had a very painful hip impingment that had gotten worse and worse. I worked with Neil and he was amazing. He did some "manipulations" for lack of a medically accurate term, and a bunch of exercises. I improved quickly and am longer in pain. He gave me a prescription of exercises to continue doing and it has been a tremendous help. If I have any problems in the future, I will definitely return to Symbio.
