Fitness Matters - Grandview

Went to Avida for PT after surgery (May 2016) to repair torn ACL and meniscus. Worked primarily with Ali and Carol, but the whole team was great. They really know their stuff, can simply describe the what and the why for the various exercises. What I appreciated the most was their expertise that gave me the confidence to work hard and progress quickly. With their help I'm good as new and back to playing soccer, skiing, and other activities. I cannot recommend Avida highly enough.

Carol Albright and staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Whether it’s knee replacement, shoulder surgery or chronic aches/pains Avida PT can help. If you need PT why not go where the staff knows what they are doing, attentive and friendly? I’ve had at least four other family members receive care here with positive outcomes. Highly recommend Avida!

Great therapists. Very caring and attentive.

Whole staff here is extremely knowledgeable, professional and fun. They will work with anyone to see them succeed.

Stephen Laflamme went above and beyond working with my husband in PT post-back surgery. With a condition that is so misunderstood by many medical professionals, Stephen has the most understanding and conducted the most research regarding nerve impingement/pain due to bulging disc out of all of the medical professionals we dealt with during my husband's surgery/treatment. It is rare to find a physical therapist who has such extensive knowledge and experience in the field of exercise science, and who actually knows realistically and effectively how to apply proper biomechanics to an individual's life. He is case and point why physical therapists need to know (and actually PRACTICE) proper strength training! I have recommended Stephen to multiple people with back issues/nerve pain. All in all, unfortunately many medical professionals just don't "get it" (the practical aspects of medical issues/injuries, and how to properly fix them through incorporating proper biomechanics into one's lifestyle)- Stephen gets it.

Expert physical therapy. Performed video analysis of my Running gait, and corrected biomechanical issues. Strongly recommend Avida PT!

Avida PT was awesome from my first visit to my last. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming. My PT, Ali, was the BEST! Even though I was in pretty bad shape when I first saw her, she made every appointment do-able and helped me to recover quicker than I thought possible. Thank you Avida PT!

There aren't enough stars or praise to fully rate the amazing work done here! Avida is as professional and perfect as an PT institution could be. From day 1 the secretaries helped get me in that same day(most places are a 1-3 week wait), Kelsey greeted me warmly as an add on to her schedule and little did I know she would be saving me! I have left every visit proclaiming to her that she is a godess for the work she has done. I had an acute back spasm/issue that limited my ability to walk/sit/stand/work/workout/shower/etc that seemed to happen overnight, just the week before my best friends wedding. Kelsey took me under her wing and had me on the dance floor and in my bridesmaid dress not only standing up straight but without pain. She has worked with me diligently for 2 months to not only get me back to full day to day functions but back into to my workout regimens as well. The kind nature of the entire staff is over whelming. My work schedule makes definite appointments challenging however any time I called with "I'm going to be late" or "need to cancel" they encouraged me to still come in and did everything they could to Make sure I was still seen that day. The only time I've ever felt this type of large community support like I've felt at avida is in running any half marathon, just a compilation of many random cheerleaders, getting you to the end. Every penny spent here will be beyond worth it. One week before my injury I had just completed 13.1 miles and today after 2 months of rehab I just completed my first 1.5 miles post injury pain free and I owe every step to Avida.

Avida PT is AMAZING and I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! I went there after a year of nagging knee pain and after seeing several other physical therapists...I'm a runner and having such pain was preventing me from doing what I loved. Caroline spent a great deal of time with me, getting to understand my pain, the potential reasons for my injury and had me performing different exercises to determine strength and weakness. She then created a customized plan for addressing the root cause and not just the pain. I'm happy to say that since seeing Caroline I have no pain...this is almost 6 months later. I've even trained for and run a marathon with no pain!! THANK YOU!!

My husband and I both have been patients at Avida PT and We were pleased with the professionalism of the therapists and staff. It is a friendly environment which makes it actually fun to visit for your appointments. I also was impressed with the follow through, we were given detailed instructions for exercises we can do on our own at home, and my husband and who is a marathon runner , was given an individualized plan that enabled his training to get back on track.
