I always count on Russell for his clear direction

Russell helps me make complex decisions about my health care and then gives me the exercises I need to improve my function.

Best of the best

I've been a patient of Russ' for over thirty years to deal with a variety of sports related injuries and surgeries. His knowledge and professionalism are unsurpassed. I could not give a higher recommendation. If you're looking for results oriented, professional care, Russ is your man.

Makes my day....honest!

Wait time is minimal. Therapy is always spot on, soothing. There is always time for a little rest after a session if necessary. Russell also knows how to pick excellent staff. I love them all

Incredibly knowledgeable and great attitude

He takes a very medical and knowledgeable approach. I've been to other physical therapists in the past and none of them had the knowledge of anatomy and the human body like Russel has. Nor has anyone else had the very positive and encouraging approach which he has. He has also given me various different exercises that I can do by myself at home or at the gym. Highly recommended.

Excellent PT professional

I have seen marked improvement since working with Russell. He has helped me find additional help with my orthopedic physician and helped me find a physiologist.

He is knowledgeable, professional and friendly.

It's a pleasure working with him.

Russell gets right to the problem and solves it quick

Russell figures out your problem and takes care of it quick. No wasted time or visit. In 3 sessions my achillies heel problem which bothered me for 9 months was fixed.

Russell is understated and underrated

Over a decade on and off. Russell has managed a number of different conditions (mostly caused by being an overambitious athlete at my age). While not always obvious, his techniques lead to fast recovery and comfort - the best!!

Great therapist!

Russell helped diagnose and treat a long standing shoulder/upper back pain that I had post shoulder surgery, that other therapists did not initially recognize. I would (and have) recommend him to anyone that I know who is in need of physical therapy.

On the road to great recovery...

When i first met Russell two years ago, i was someone that was always skeptical about PT work. He changed that belief. he fully explained what was wrong and the process needed to get better. I have since come in with other symptoms and he has been truly great to work with..

Russell Hartophilis

From ACL and miniscus repair surgery to chronic back pain, Russell has put me back together more times than I can count - and a few times when other PTs had failed. He is super smart and ALWAYS present in the moment assessing re-assessing and creating individualized treatment. Every appointment and for every minute. Can not say enough positive things

trust the process

He has been great throughout the whole process. We talked about my goal of being able to return to rugby as soon as possible. me being a kid just wanted to get out and run as soon as i got out of the brace but he slowed me down and showed me how much work had to be done.
