My 93 year-old mother began physical therapy with Mark Anthony two weeks ago. She has had chronic shoulder and upper arm pain for over five years. She been able to improve her range of motion from 40 degrees to 90 degrees in her arms. She is able to reach for the microwave, retrieve her mail and make her bed. Regular life activities that she has been unable to do in years. I highly recommend Mark Anthony and TheraRehab and Wellness. Mark Anthony has improved my mother’s quality of life that past physical therapists have not been able to achieve.

Mark is an expert in his field. Knowledgeable about specifics but able to understand the body as a whole, he is excellent for guiding patients through recovery. He takes a tailored approach to his clients, considering the goals, preexisting injuries and lifestyles to make a comprehensive plan. The best PT I’ve visited, I recommend him highly for athletes and average Janes alike.
