Testimonial

“Alicia Hirscht is an absolutely top-notch physical therapist! As a physician who cares for patients myself, it was so wonderful to experience the kindhearted, knowledgeable, compassionate, and encouraging approach that Alicia took while treating my shoulder problem. She guided me through an intensive 12-week program of physical therapy during which time I started out with a frozen shoulder and ended up with virtually full range of motion. She managed my expectations beautifully, and she gave me terrific guidance with home therapy exercises. I cannot recommend her highly enough!” – F.S.
