I was a little skeptical at first about using Sports and Ortho after my rotator cuff surgery. But my surgeon gave it excellent praise for the work they do with his patients. At my first session I had Claire as my physical therapist and she took the time to explain what I had done and how she was going to rehab my left shoulder with a progressed regimen. I am about five weeks post op and feeling good. After each session I have better range of motion and feel great. I am sure that I will have no problem getting back to 100% so I can return to work and enjoy my hobbies. Claire, thank you so much for the fantastic work you do! πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž

I was having major TMJ and neck/shoulder issues, and was able to get much better with Maries help, doing a combination of massaging and specific stretches/excercises. Definitely recommend this place!

If you want to feel understood and get personalized therapy this is the right place to go. From the beginning, each employee especially Claire and Marie have been attentive and responsive to my many issues. I would definitely recommend a visit. I have been to most of the cookie cutter therapy facilities around Chicago and I wish I would have found Sports and Ortho sooner.

I had have very bad luck with physical therapy before and was hesitant to start again, but I am very glad I ended here. Marie was an excellent therapist! she personalized my treatment and listened to me. I also learned very good exercises to keep implementing even after I am discharged from the clinic. I drastically recovered from my injuries and was able to get back to running, Im very grateful for the work they did.

I had a terrible chronic lower back pain for almost 20 years and have recently tried a couple of physical therapists in South Loop, which I didn’t get a good outcome out of. But then my orthopedist referred me to this place, and they turned out to be the game changer! The lower back pain, which I had had for almost 2 decades, are completely gone, COMPLETELY! I didn’t ever think it could go away like this. Payal, my physical therapist, who I especially want to shout out to, is just a wonderful person and therapist who is committed to get her patients better and go enjoy their best lives. I can’t stop telling all the great things about them. You should try this place. All the staff are very friendly and professional.

A month ago I visited this place with my TMJ problem. Claire kindly welcomed me and did a very attentive evaluation. Marie is an excellent therapist whose hands go onto the right spot where the muscles are tight and relaxes them. Claudia helped me to do the exercise correctly paying attention to my motions. They are a fantastic working team!

I highly recommend this location. Brittany and Payal were wonderful therapists. They listen to your concerns and make adjustments as needed. They care about you as a person and not just a patient. Liza is your first contact and she is welcoming and helps you with the whole process of registering and making appointments. She works hard to accommodate you. Claire, Klaudia, Marie and Dawn are also part of this wonderful location. I highly recommend them if you are in need of physical therapy. A hidden gem in Bridgeport!!

I’ve been getting treatment with Claire for over 6 months, treating various minor issues. I can’t say enough about the staff and service at Sports and Ortho. Everyone is very knowledgeable and extremely professional. Claire plays the best music for a PT office and better than some bars! She’s very attentive, skilled and keeps me functional to continue training hard. It’s more than just PT, the relationship is good for the soul. I highly recommend Claire or Payal at Sports and Ortho Bridgeport, book your appointment today!

All of the women here are absolutely amazing. My 12 year old son is usually shy, plus hes a typical preteen, and he actually looks forward to coming for physical therapy. He absolutely loves working with them all, he says mom theyre a lot of fun. Not only are they professional and have helped him so much with his knee, but theyre all so friendly, and welcoming. It doesnt matter if its your first visit or 10th, they make you feel like part of the sports and ortho family. I would recommend them 100000000000x. Thank you for helping my son and the wonderful experience.

Payal has been treating me for a painful meniscus tear in my knee. Payal is a professional, knowledgeable and a gifted physical therapist. She is always able to pinpoint the exact location to be worked on. My pain level is getting better and my range of motion has made good progress. Payal listens carefully and she also promptly revises any of my home exercises until it is spot on. She is attentive to you while you are doing your exercises to make sure that you are doing it correctly and is encouraging throughout. She has helped me come this far and I am thankful for this. In addition, Lisa at the front desk is great!

Review β„–22

Coming to Sport and Ortho was the best decision ever for my pain!!I really like how thorough the team is in treating and addressing your pain areas. They take the time to truly listen to whats hurting you and check in with you each visit to see how your feeling. The team makes the environment fun, upbeat, and very welcoming.I have been seeing Claire for almost 2 month treating some long-standing lower back pain and a knee injury. I have made AMAZING progress. I am convinced Claire has magic is her hands. Those hands have relieved me of many muscle knots, big and small. I was amazed at Claire’s ability to pinpoint even the smallest muscles just from me describing my pain. She is a truly an expert on the muscles in the body.Each visit Klaudia helps me with my stretches and hot/cold compresses and each visit she greets me with a smile and kindness.Claire, Klaudia, Liza, Marie, Payal, and Dawn are AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Review β„–23

Hands down - the best physical therapy in Bridgeport. When I hurt my knee a few weeks ago, I told my ortho doc that I didnt get anything out of physical therapy the last time he made me go. He told me to pick a different place because I really need therapy. So I picked Sports and Ortho Physical Therapy on 31st Street right here in Bridgeport -- and boy am I glad I did. These people are remarkable. Marie is who I saw first, and she has been a god-send. The improvements in my knee and ability to walk are astounding. I cant even believe it. Shes also kind, funny, and supportive and takes such an interest in my progress. Ive also seen Payal and Claire, who are equally as wonderful. The vibe here is always so positive and uplifting, and I genuinely enjoy coming here. All of the other patients love being here, too, and it shows. Most of all, I am improving, and the pain is going away and I cant begin to express how truly grateful I am for all of them. (Shout out to Lisa and Klaudia, as well!) Oh - and they have parking right out front which is a huge plus in our neighborhood!

Review β„–24

I cant say enough good things about this place. Ive been going for back pain and have been so impressed with the level of care I have received from EVERYONE there. Claire is my normal therapist and she is a magician, seriously. Shes helped reduce my pain at every visit (including addressing re-injuries and squeezing me in for extra last minute appointments). The strengthening exercises she has me to are super helpful and my at home exercises are manageable. Her use of spine mobilization, soft tissue work, cupping, and when she has Payal or Marie dry needle is so effective. And Klaudia, the therapy tech is so attentive, she keeps everything clean, organized, makes sure Ive always got exercises to do and that Im always doing them correctly. More than anything, the environment at this sports and ortho location is fantastic. I love how friendly it is, when I go in, I know that all the therapists there (not just the one I mainly see) are concerned about my progress and about my life. I enjoy my appointments because everyone is fun to be around, a joy to talk to, and focused on the progress of every patient there, not just their specific cases.

I am extremely pleased with my therapy and the care and amount of time given to me. I have worked with Claire, Payal and Klaudia. All are very professional and attentive to my aches and pains. They are extremely knowledgeable and explain why and how certain exercises work on my body. I cannot say enough great things about the group. Lisa and Dawn at front desk have been very patient with me as I have had to change my appointment times due to my work schedule.

I went to Sports and Ortho Bridgeport for an ankle injury and they became like family. I was kind of sad to leave! Claire was my PT while I was there. She spent so much time with me during each session and was always great with answering my questions. Each session felt like my own act of self-care for the day. I would definitely recommend this location!

I have been going to this location on and off for over 3 years now. I initially went for therapy on a rotator cuff repair surgery I had. Very painful surgery and recovery. My shoulder is back 100%. I had God, the best surgeon and an amazing Physical therapist from this location. I found out Physical Therapy is the key to complete recovery and Sports and Ortho will provide that for you. I also have a few aches and pains hip and lower back and between the exercises and hands on care you get from Sports and Ortho I am feeling great. The staff is wonderful, patient and caring. The location is sanitized well, location is conviennent right off the Dan Ryan expressway and plenty of free parking. I feel safe because there are many police in the area. No matter what your issue is, this location I will be great for you.

It helps that going here is not a drag because everyone is great. Payal, Danielle, Claire, Lisa! My appts are typically at 8a so seeing the ladies are something to look forward to.

Review β„–30

I have been coming at this clinic for an year now, the staff here is the most affable and welcoming.Payal is superb at her job, she is skillful and an expert in her field. I remember when I started physiotherapy I had unimaginable pain and I had no idea how to overcome and manage my pain. She healed me, taught me and changed my whole approach towards my condition( disc herniation). She is an experienced, engaging and a proficient therapist.She assesses my pain and monitor closely posture, movement patterns and assigns exercises to strengthen my core and improve mobility of my spine. She has a thorough evaluation process for every patient and she digs to the core reason of pain and solve the issue from its root. She offers most effective techniques tailored according to patient’s needs. I want to thank her profusely for her assistance throughout this difficult journey.

It was twelve years ago that I began therapy at Sports and Ortho and in the last few years Ive been back two more times. The important thing is that I trust these therapists and that they will speed me on to recovery. Everyone on the staff seems happy in their jobs and this leads to a cheerful atmosphere which can only help with wellness. I fully recommend them and am happy that they are in my neighborhood.

Review β„–37

I seem to be accident prone as this is my third set of treatment experiences with Sports and Ortho. My doctor was insistent on sending me to another facility, but I told him , no. I am so comfortable with my primary therapist, Payal. As it turns out, my doctor knows Payal. Unfortunately Payal had to leave me to go have a baby. However, her replacement, Marie is funny and competent. I feel like Ive known her for years . Claire, another therapist is also funny and skilled. Claudia, therapist in traing is delightful. Patient, kind and encouraging.Finalky, the ladies at the front desk, Lisa and dawn are incredibly sweet and helpful,even when I am occassionally late for my appointmentsAltogether, its a great place to get better and feel good.

This review is from my dad, Saturnino Gonzalez. This is his second time at Sports and Ortho in Bridgeport. His therapists currently are Payal and Marie. He loves going to this location, not only because it is close to home, but because all of the staff is welcoming, attentive and professional. Liza is the first person whom you will have contact with and she is heart-warming, always sweet and ready to help in any way she can to make sure your appointments are when you need them. Marie and Payal are wonderful therapists. They offer many different kind of therapies and always ask if you are ok during your sessions. They care about you as a person, not just a patient. Claire, Klaudia and Dawn are also part of the team at this location and you will be lucky to meet them as well. If you need physical therapy I highly recommend this location! You wont be dissapointed!!

Sports and Ortho is the place to go for your physical therapy needs. I have been a client for two years and currently doing my rehab at the Bridgeport location. I followed my physical therapist Claire from another Sports and Ortho location. Claire has been my rock, and go to person, helping me get through my injury of a sacral disc herniation and my current recovery post surgery. She personalizes a therapy regimen for her clients that can be done at home just as easy as it is done there. Even though I feel I can push myself, she makes sure I stay on a path where I work up to my goals, so that I do not re-injury myself at the present or future. I can continue on about Claire, but she is not the only individual that makes the Bridgeport location the best of all locations.When you first walk in the door you are greeted by everyone including Lisa and Dawn who are the at the front desk. These ladies help the clients with insurance or other business needs. They also are the clients cheerleaders and the ones that keep the therapists busy by scheduling the clients.I have not had the pleasure to work with the other therapists but they still get plenty of kudos from me. To watch the Manager and phyical therapist Payal work with her clients it is apparent that she cares so much for their well-being and getting them onto the path of recovery.Then there is the newest therapist Marie, she is so funny and is such a great addition to this group of individuals. Even though I havent worked with her she keeps cheering me on and we have a rapport as if we have known each other forever. Just like Claire and Payal she cares and wants the best treatment for her clients.Finally, last but not least in anyway, Klaudia with a K, the one that makes sure all the clients are doing their exercises to the standards that the therapists want. Being the tech/assistant to these ladies, she is the gear that keeps it all moving. Setting up, andcleaning up after all of us, its nonstop for this lady.In summary, if you are looking for a place to do your physical rehab, that sticks to the goals but keeps it fun and lively that your session flies by in a blink of an eye, look no further and call the Sports and Ortho Bridgeport location. All the ladies at the Bridgeport location are top notch and there are not enough words to explain how wonderful, professional and down to earth they are. They make going through a tough recovery fun and enjoyable and it feels like I am meeting up with friends on a daily basis.Jen L

Getting to work with the team at Sports and Ortho has been one of the few bright spots in 2020 for me. Payal and Claire are both so warm and welcoming - the atmosphere is like your favorite local bar, except instead of drinking, its people focusing on their health. Ive been working with Claire recently and shes provided invaluable recommendations about which surgeons to work with and how to prepare for my upcoming ACL surgery. Shes even spent time outside of work doing research to help me. I cant think of a single issue with S+O, if you have the opportunity to be treated by one of their therapists, I highly recommend it!

I had been dealing with back pain for several years. After different attempts at treatment, I thought I would have to live with that pain for the rest of my life. After several weeks of working with Payal and the staff, I truly dont remember ever having the mobility in my back I have now. Payal is extremely knowledgeable and truly shows she cares about every person she works with. Regardless of your mood when you walk in, the entire staff will have you smiling. Whether its Lisa or Dawn at the front door or any other staff member you are working with, you will surely leave feeling better about your day!

I must say, at the beginning of treatment, I felt there was no way the pain and mobility would improve much. My pain and mobility levels were 9/10. But, Payal & Claire proved me wrong. There was 98%-99% improvement. Thank you, Girls. With that being said, you know they’re on top of the skills and techniques they possess. You’re the bestβ˜ΊοΈπŸ‘πŸΎ.

I just finished my physical therapy at Sports and Ortho. This was my third time in several years.Each time the experience was great . From the first day meeting with Lisa who helps with all the paperwork and schedule your appointments. I had a fantastic therapist named Brittany and she was very professional and caring, constantly updating each session to meet my needs. Miguel is the therapist assistant and he is very helpful with all the exercises and constantly keeps a watchful eye on at all times.

If you need physical therapy for anything wether it be right out of surgery or just to reduce some unwanted pain, this is the BEST place to go. Payal is a miracle worker with all of her amazing techniques. And the dynamic that Payal and Claire have is amazing and youll never leave with a frown on your face! Not only do they use their hands but they do graston tools, cups for cupping therapy, and dry needling which is highly recommended. Not only did I get the opportunity to work here with these wonderful ladies, but I also got therapy for my shoulder and am continuing to do so even though I live an hour and a half away! Also, I cannot forget the two wonderful ladies at the front desk, Dawn and Liza. They are the absolute best!! You will NEVER be disappointed with your results after coming here!!

This Sports and Ortho Physical Therapy group is in a word Tremendous! I was referred to this group by a friend for my injuries and I saw immediate results from my treatment plan that was custom developed for me. My personal Therapist is Payal Korde and I have no reservations in recommending her in any regard. Her subject matter expertise, professionalism and approach to your treatment is unsurpassed! She has a wonderful and engaging personality as well which make rehab fun versus arduous.The support staff like Lisa and other attendants like Miguela are very welcoming and cordial and makes for an experience that you actually look forward to going to therapy. Theyre the absolute best that Ive ever seen before.Thanks Sports and Ortho!Ken Johnson

I had three months of physical therapy with Payal as my therapist. I came in after having two back surgeries and leg pain down my left leg. Today was my last day and I can honestly say I never thought I would feel almost 100%. Payal was patient and knew exactly what I needed to get to this day. She was amazing, friendly and I enjoyed my visits with her. I felt like a made a new friend. The entire staff was wonderful. I highly recommend this place.-Josephine Castagna

This review is actually from my Mom, since she does not use her gmail account.A year and half ago, Doctor recommended physical therapy for a hip issue. He suggested Sports and Ortho. Came here and they were so helpful. Recently went back to the doctor, having shoulder issues. He recommended physical therapy. Told him, want to do it at Sports and Ortho.From the moment your in contact with the front desk, your treated as a person. When you walk thru the doors, your always greeted by Liza and or Dawn, ( and they greet you by name) if not both. The therapist will greet you and so will the Therapist Aide (and by your name). This time I had Brittany and Miguel. Even though Payal was not my therapist, she also greeted me. Your asked how are you feeling, your pain level. Brittany took her time, asked me questions, and listen to me. When doing the exercise, Miguel was so helpful, making sure you did them correctly. Also if you were having any difficulties or in any type of pain. If you were, he would let the therapist know immediately.Since my first time, at Sports and Ortho, looks like they have a new floor and the walls were painted (love the colors).Lisa and Dawn will work with your insurance. Will work with you on scheduling your appointments.The only thing, I wish they did have would be a bigger coat rack, or multiple coat racks. With being winter and all the heavy coats, surprising the rack never fell over. For those who bring bags, there should be a shelves to leave them there, instead on the floor.I love it when you walk in, I was given heat right away for my shoulder and ice when I left.This is a place where your a person and you matter, not just a patient.When you walk out after your session, again Lisa/Dawn will tell you have a good day/Good By and they use your name. The therapist and the therapist aide also tells you have a good day.

I have been to many clinics after injuries, car accidents and surgeries and found my permanent PT home at Sport & Ortho. The entire staff is professional and personable, we always have a giggle. I look forward to my visits. Especially at the Bridgeport office. I know that Payal will get me back to where I need to be, exercising and feeling strong. Payal is exceptionally educated and knowledgeable about anatomy and physiology and will find what works best for the individual and their treatment. Liza knows the ins and outs of insurance and will make sure your insurance company isnt screwing you! I can go on and on! Highly recommend! :-) Quite sure Ill be back in therapy for the remainder of my life and I know I will go back to Sport & Ortho Physical Therapy, Chicago.

Last day of physical therapy. Thank you to Dawn and Lisa at the front desk who always greeted everyone with smiles on their faces and always helpful. A special thank you to my physical therapist Payal Korde who worked so hard after my hip replacement to correct and straightened my walk. She is really dedicated to her job. If you ever need physical therapy this is the place to go. They take there time with each patient

Finding Sports & Ortho is the best thing I could have done for myself. Go see Payal, she is the BEST! Payal identified and helped correct long term issues that caused pain and prevented me from moving forward in my fitness goals. In addition to a stellar rehab team, the office staff (Liza) are helpful and make getting started a breeze. Do the work and youll be feeling great in no time! Thank you, Payal & the entire Sports & Ortho team.

I have been working with the team at Sports & Ortho for about 9 months, most recently for post-surgery rehab. (Arthroscopic hip surgery.) Its past time to write a review: I cannot say enough good things about the quality of PT they provide. Initially I went to an Athletico near where I live, but in that office, I would be seen alongside three other patients at the same time and nobody knew my name or remembered my condition. Sports & Ortho was totally different. Liza and Dawn at the front desk know the patients and greet us when we arrive. From there, I would usually start with stretching and exercises under the guidance of Miguel, who is friendly and knowledgeable, and then receive a significant amount of 1-on-1 time with my PT, Payal Korde. From day one, I was so impressed with Payals knowledge and experience. I know this word is overused, but with her, it really is true to say that she is PASSIONATE about physical therapy. She had a neverending arsenal of tools to use to assist in my progress: cupping, dry-needling, trigger point, Gua Sha, etc. Sometimes it felt like torture, but I knew it was worth it to heal quickly and fully. I have not worked with Brittany, but I have seen her working with other patients, and she seems compassionate and thorough (not to mention bilingual!) I highly recommend the whole team at Sports & Ortho because of the quality of individualized care they provide.

I have had physical therapy with other companies, but sports& ortho at the Bridgeport location is by far the BEST I have ever experienced. I will always recommend this company/ Bridgeport location.

Unfortunately I have had to use their services more than once, but both times they got me out of pain and back to work. This isnt Leisurely therapy . As much as they helped alleviate my pain they worked me just as hard to fix what was wrong in the first place. Thorough, caring and professional ......this is the ONLY place I would consider going should the need arise.

Payal Korde PT is great. She goes over and beyond, she is concerned about your discomfort, and works hard to improve your quality of life. Please continue to employ and recognize her dedication and hard work.Sports & Ortho you have a shining staff at your Bridgeport site.One issue the facility just needs a little refresher coat of paint to clean it up a little and uplift your clients. Lastly, all if the employees work together as a team and are friendly.Sincerely, Cheryl Folino

I started having neck and back pain after a car accident a few years ago. Right after the accident, my pain decreased by doing physical therapy in Florida. However, a year ago the pain came back again when I became a full time student. Seating down was very painful, wearing my jacket felt heavy on my neck and hurt, sleeping felt impossible... I decided to start physical therapy again at Sports Ortho and my experience has been satisfactory in every single way. Sports Ortho really has provided me with the best physical therpay experience I have ever known. Miss Korde was my therapist. Excellent hands on service and attention. Besides Miss Korde, everyone there was excellent; from Lisa, the administrator, to every assistant. They always made me feel welcome and comfortable. I finally understood why I was having so much pain and how to prevent it to come back again by doing different exercises. I could not be happier with the results. Going there was worth every second of my time because now I am finally pain free and my ability to concentrate in my classes has increased.

I had a long and uncomfortable injury, Sports Ortho helped me, heal and become stronger. They tailored my care based on my injury and the pain I was having. Always professional and competent and focused on my recovery. Most of all they listened to me and understood what I was dealing with.

I have been going to this location for years. Liza and Dawn are excellent from the very beginning gave me a sense of caring concern. Payal is amazing and goes beyond physical therapy in her abilities to both alleviate pain and other issues surrounding the problem. I have watched Timothy, in training transition and gain so much that he fits right in.. Payal is very thorough and encouraging. Plus she instructed me about my issues and causative measures. She has sooo many tools and strategies. Marie helped me immensely with a hugely problematic situation I have had for years. Claire and Rosh all add to this amazingly, encouraging awesome team. πŸ‘ŒThanks guys and bless you all for the wonderfully supportive experience and environment! I even witnessed the owner manager working diligently on a patient. I feel loved and appreciated.
