This holistic approach enables us to support your goals effectively—improving function, reducing injury risk, and helping you perform at your best.

Superb physiotherapist. Friendly, confident, but also kind and patient. Thoroughly explains his therapy plan. He is a former Division 1 college student-athlete, so is tuned to seeking the best strength and function possible. He listens actively and takes good notes. I will recommend him to my friends and family.

Excellent 1st PT session. Informative, anatomically educational, and a game plan to get me headed in the right direction on stretching and strength. Having an app on top of handouts was a plus. Nice facility.

Brett and his team have been absolutely fantastic. I started seeing Brett and the team at the Performance Center a few days after having knee surgery, and they’ve really helped me in my recovery. They really focus on my alignment and movements through all the various exercises and make small adjustments during the exercises and also add new ones to help strengthen imbalances I have. 6 weeks after surgery, and I’m feeling better than I did 6 months before the surgery. Highly recommend!

We have been seeing Brandon and Colton for over 8 months now for my son’s ACL rehab. They are absolutely top notch! Could not be happier with the care they provide, the attention to detail and tailoring the sessions to meet our goals of getting back on the football field this fall. Highly recommend them both for all your PT needs.

Kevin is incredible. Super fun, high energy, great vibes. I was scared to go to them since I had a bad experience in the past with a different PT company and Raleigh Ortho PT is amazing. Everyone there is nice, caring, and fun. Makes PT the best part of my week. Brandon and Kevin saved me from the everyday pain. Bree is amazing too. Absolutely love the family they have there and they welcome each and everyone of us into it. Thank you for making my hip surgery recovery a piece of cake.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review. We love serving all of our patients and are honored to receive such great feedback!
