My husband has been experiencing Parkinson’s-related motility symptoms for a couple of years, and after just two sessions with Susan, the improvement in his gait has been remarkable. He’s already walking more upright, taking larger steps, and even swinging his arms naturally again. We’re truly amazed by the tremendous progress he’s made in such a short time.
What sets Susan apart is the level of care and attention she provides. She dedicates the entire session solely to him—something we haven’t experienced with any other physical therapist. In the past, we’ve seen therapists juggle multiple patients at once, but with Susan, he receives her full, undivided focus.

Over the years have gone to several different physical therapy facilities. Typically the therapist is dealing with several other patients at the same time and there isn’t much individual care. Not so with Susan Thomas. Susan totally exceeded my expectations every time I saw her. She is extremely knowledgeable and caring, excellent what she does. You can’t go wrong with Susan. Susan taught me a lot, including helping me with motivation. In addition to Susan’s knowledge and personal care, the facility is great. Very clean, and pleasant. She has all kinds of accessories and implements to help her patients reach their goals. Highly recommended, the best in the industry!
