Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent results
John, with his colleagues Ashley and Jadan, helped me to successfully recover from two separate knee replacements within 11 months. The sessions pushed me, which is what I needed. As others have commented, John and Ashley answered questions and fully explained the need and purpose of each exercise. They are excellent hands-on therapists.

Great mix of therapies
He treated my neck area with stretches, exercises, massage, and tems sessions. He loosened up my neck and I have far greater motion and less pain.

Duffy is a knowledgeable PT and setup my program well. He and Ashley explained the exercises, what they are for and continually checked to make sure I was doing them properly to get the most out of it. I feel that I progressed at a good pace. Duffy, Ashley and Jadan are the best at what they do and they made it enjoyable to go there even though it was a painful rehab. I would recommend them to everyone I know.

Superior PT Therapy
John (Duffy) is extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, trained and most importantly invested in all his patients. Very personable and always willing to listen. Have a visited many PT clinics but nothing compares to the treatment and care John provides. Thoroughly explains the treatment you will receives and is very “hands on”. His entire team is the benchmark for physical therapy.

John Duffy is an extremely knowledgeable P.T. While he worked w me he would take me to a point in stretching esp that I didnt think possible all the while talking me through it and explaining in detail what he was doing and why. He creatively came up w exercises that pinpointed weaknesses that I really needed to work on. He was totally confident w the program he set up for me and I saw constant improvement during my time there. I really appreciate the knowledge and concern he showed me and others who were there. Nothing but love and respect for John Duffy PT.

Duffy, as he prefers to be called, has treated me on several occasions over the years and has always done a great job in helping me to heal my issues. He is very professional and considerate when dealing with everyone's particular problem. I would recommend Duffy to everyone in need of physical therapy.

Duffy's care was exceptional! He was a kind, caring, and compassionate PT who made rehab a fun experience. He always had an eye on everyone to make sure they were doing what they were supposed to be doing correctly. He and the staff at Phoenix made you want to come back and get better! I highly recommend John Duffy. He was an awesome PT and fun to talk to. All the patients there were friendly as well. A successful experience rehabbing my hip and knee!

I had shoulder surgery for a torn rotator cuff, bone spurs and a few other issues. I chose Phoenix Rehab and John Duffy because of the many recommendations I got from so many people. Then my surgeon recommended him too. He did not disappoint me. He and his staff are just excellent at what they do. Excellent.

In 2014 Duffy (as he is known) helped me get back on the tennis court after right knee replacement. This year I came back after major surgery on my left knee and injury to my right shoulder. I’m glad I did. Thanks to the efforts of Duffy and his crack staff, I’m once again back on the tennis court. They know their stuff and you can tell how dedicated they are to achieving their goal: helping you restore maximum function to your impaired body parts. Serious, gentle care is always rendered.

Have had "Duffy" for a previous surgery. His regimen is great and he helped me to understand what was going on and how it would effect doing things in the future. I have been under his care now for Pre-surgery physical therapy for rotator cuff surgery. I anticipate the post surgery will go reasonably well. Great personality! Made me want to come to therapy to get the issue resolved.

I have been going to Duffy for at least 20 years. He has enabled me to work and enjoy my life without pain. He is an expert in what he does. Over the years he has treated me for back, knee, shoulder and ankle issues. He is GREAT! And, the staff at Phoenix PT in Greentree are professional and a pleasure. R. S. Rosen, Ph.D

John & his staff were very understanding of my re-hab from hip surgery, and worked to ensure my range of motion without undue pain. I previously went to a different facility for knee replacement re-hab, and the treatment and care I received from John was far superior.

My total knee replacement surgery was very successful, thanks to Dr Nicholas Kubik. My physical therapy, lead by John Duffy was likewise very successful. I did twice a day exercises at home for fourty minutes and three times a week with Duffy at Phoenix. Duffy pushed me on a results oriented basis. He was sympathetic to my sentiments and adjusted PT as appropriate, always keeping me moving forward. I am able to alternately go down steps with ease, ride a bicycle and dance four nights a week.

John Duffy is a knowledgeable, experienced, friendly and competent physical therapist. The thing I like the most about John is that he stretches out each one of his patients at some point during the appointment time. He puts his hands on the patient and exercises the range of motion in the problem joint or muscle. I went to four physical therapists before I found John Duffy, and none of the others ever put their hands on me and in so doing facilitated faster and better healing.

Dr. Pat McMahon recommended John at Phoenix Rehab as the best around . John worked with me for over 14 weeks & my shoulder is like new . I have spoken to other patients while I was in rehab and they also only had positive comments about John & his staff . I highly recommend John Duffy to anyone who needs physical therapy
