Here's what some of our former patients have to say about us.
Excellent therapy for a replaced shoulder. I would recommend Columbia PT to anyone. Everyone is extremely kind, patient, and very knowledgeable and skilled.
Carrie
Started at pain of 8 , and now it is down to 3. Very satisfied with the care and Susan and Adrienne were both very nice.
James Borden
Gina,Jen,& Andrew did a great job rehabilitating me after a recent total hip replacement.This is the third replacement surgery I have had(both knees and now a hip)and Columbia has done a great job at all times. They know their stuff and really care.
Columbia PT is a professional and compassionate physically challenging medical support service. The therapists share a philosophy of challenging care plans coupled with long term education for safety and improved health. They look at you as a total person.
PT helped me to get my knee back in shape by doing the stretches and exercises. Thanks!

Amy the therapist that administered treatment was excellent. Answered all my questions. Gave print outs even when I forgot to bring them. Gave me the time I needed to finish excercise. Gave guidance on each excersise and machine instructions. I noticed that Amy was friendly with me and other patients. I was a very happy patient.
Donna Streck
They have a wonderful staff, who are all caring, professional and treat me like family. I got all my questions, answered. I would not go anywhere else. CPT is the BEST! Thank you!
I was taught the right exercises, informing me of what or what not to do to help my condition.

I had a total shoulder replacement and Gina provided the necessary treatment and exercises, so I am practically back to "normal."
Tija and Karen were terrific. I feel 90% better!

I noted balance improvement , better posture, and better gait. Therapy always is a help physically and mentally. It serves to be uplifting. It is always a pleasure to come to therapy and everyone is always hardworking and wonderful to be around. Thank you all!

They were very good about taking my low back injury into account and when I found out I was expecting they altered my program to enable me to be able to safely continue with treatment. It is a very good team!
CEM
For the third time in 4 years Columbia PT has helped me with lumbar spine aches and pains. In just a few sessions they got me back on the road to recovery. I can now carry on the exercise plan myself. The friendly but professional atmosphere is wonderful.

Stefanie provided PT for my post surgical shoulder pain with exercise, massage & heat treatment. She is an excellent PT with top notch skills and ability along with a caring manner and attention to details. I will return to her for individual training to build strength and increase my cardiovascular capacity. My observations of your staff, facilities and follow through would lead me to recommend your organization without any reservations. Thanks for the opportunity to give this evaluation .

Fractured my right humerus and shoulder, Denise is a fantastic therapist. She did a wonderful job getting my range of motion and strength back.
Teri Hanson
Everyone is awesome! No Pain...no gain....
Carrie D
Both Karen & Amy knew exactly how to treat my problem and were both pleasant & kind.
E.S.
This is my 2nd series of PT treatments at Columbia PT. All the therapists and assistants who worked on my shoulder were gentle and caring. They instructed me on how to perform my exercises at home. They were always friendly and professional. My shoulder is feeling significantly less painful and my range of motion has increased due to the quality treatment I have received.
After shoulder surgery your PT's were able to bring my arm and shoulder back to normal range of motion.
Don Wood
The staff and therapists are so friendly and helpful to my needs.
S.C.
I'm quite happy with the help I received for my shoulder. I had a minor issue when pt was almost done & Karen was able to help me out with extra appts. Karen & Martha did great work.

I suffered for 5 months with upper back and neck pain; couldn't get any relief from my own at home therapy but coming to Columbia PT has helped me tremendously! All my measurments are better and I feel 90% better than when I came. I thank all involved for the help; I really would like to stay but only had the script for 3 weeks. Good Job everyone!

I had De Quervains in my left wrist. Karen and Dan were able to alleviate the pain - not completely, but enough to enable me to continue the exercises and icing at home. I have always found the treatment and staff at the Valatie office to be exceptional and am glad they are in our area.
Excellent treatment and very professional and friendly therapist
DT
Adrienne was terrific! This was my 4th session of PT (only the 2nd with Columbia), and it was, by far, the best PT experience I've had.
Doug Teal
CINDY (your lymph edema specialist) IS COMPLETELY AMAZING. KIND, GENTLE, CARING, PATIENT & POSITIVE. SHE TAUGHT ME EXERCISES & TAUGHT ME "FACTS" ABOUT MY INJURY (which is more than 3 years old, but will be a life long " issue" ) THAT NO ONE ELSE HAD. I AM ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED WITH WHAT SHE HAS DONE, AND PRIMARILY WANTED YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE "GOLD" WITH THIS WONDERFUL WOMAN. SHE IS WORTH SO VERY MUCH TO ME!!!!!!!!
crys winstead
Everyone that works there is professional and caring. They always get required results.
MBW
I have had back trouble and the therapy I got here at CPT was one of the highlights of my week and always left me feeling much better!
GE
Your staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I was able to reach my goal pretty quickly. Equipment is kept clean and seems maintained well. I would go here again should I need physical therapy.
Christine Ralbovsky
The people at Columbia were again successful in helping me to overcome a "bad back" episode. It took just a few visits to get me standing and walking without pain. Have also re-resolved to continue a few daily exercises in hopes of preventing future re-occrrences. Dennise and Jen were wonderful and the facilities were top notch.
Dave
Diligent, consistent, insightful, dedicated, friendly, Would certainly recommend and return if necessary. Thank you for everything!

As always a pleasure. Professional, caring, and friendly,

Tanya
Exceeded my highest expectations!!! I look forward to hurting myself again so I can come back.
JC
Columbia Therapy relieved pain and restored function in one of my shoulders and to the thigh of one leg, choosing treatment and just the right exercises to strengthen the muscles to proper use. The therapists are great and inspire confidence in the therapy they design for you.
Dianne Freeman
Everyday I came in for physical therapy the staff was wonderful and did an excellent job with my back. They did my exercises in steps and made sure it worked well with me at the time. I had to reschedule my appointment a few times and the reference desk was also just as helpful. I highly recommend having your physical therapy done at CPT. Thanks!
KM
Cindy you are in the right profession. Thank you for all your help, you made it fun!
pg
Upper right leg muscles were in pain due to recovery from Achilles tendon surgery several months ago which was not followed with therapy. Columbia was able to assist me in correcting the muscle problems and get me back in condition.
Pete J
I came in after being diagnosed with peroneal tendonitis in both feet and ankles by Dr. Jack Bastow. Within two treatments I began to feel real results. What a relief considering I could hardly walk when I started. I truly enjoyed the staff from the front desk to the Therapists themselves. They were professional and fun at the same time. I was given a series of excercise to do on my off days and they also helped me recover. I would not hesitate to recommend Columbia P.T. to anyone.
CJB
This is my fourth time coming here and every time i leave I'm always satisfied. Everyone there has helped me with what I need and they're always so friendly. They were willing to work with me and always brought a smile to my face
My regimen rehabilitated my knee (ACL), restoring range of motion and strength, while in a friendly and professional atmosphere.
MBA
Columbia Physical Therapy helped make my knee stronger and I can do more activities that I could not do before.
Madison Flores
The staff were very helpful in addressing the problem I had with tendonitis in my ankle. Special thanks to Martha.
smc
I have a torn labrum in my shoulder, and after 10 appointments over the course of a month, Columbia PT has strengthened my shoulder enough so that I am confident that I will not need surgery to correct the tear. The staff was great, and everyone I worked with was very knowledgeable. I worked with three different therapists and all were great. Overall my shoulder feels great now. Thanks Columbia PT!!
TJT
Both the ultrasound and the massage to my hip helped the pain from the bursitis. But the strength exercises realy did the trick. After being a couch potatoe all winter the exercises gave me more mobility and strength.
