Dr. Karen Dubrow, PHD

For the first time in two years I am pain free! I am so thankful I was referred to Dr Dubrow. After seeing an orthopedic surgeon, a pain management specialist and several other physical therapists she was the only one who correctly diagnosed my problem as a soft tissue injury. I feel like a new person and I will be forever grateful to Dr Dubrow.

Dr. Dubrow's Physical Therapy clinic is very unique. I was the only patient she was treating during my time slot. I received a thorough evaluation for the pain that I had experienced for 2 1/2 years. Dr. Dubrow developed a plan and began treatment which included manual therapy, in clinic treatment and training for "at home" exercises. Dr. Dubrow is also constantly re-evaluating as she goes along to be sure she is not missing something. The end result is that you actually get better! Dr. Dubrow genuinely cares about her patients and their healing process.

Recently, I went through my second golf swing related injury with Dr Dubrow. I have had trouble with my hips and lower back. A few years ago, she helped me on my left side. This time she helped me on my right side including diagnosing the primary and secondary problems. My problems were in my hips, side and lower back. She was able to get my hips back int the correct position and then emphasize core exercises for my abdominal muscles, hips and lower back. She also helped improve my diet caused inflammation. Her focus on nutrition, expansion of my core on technique and the proper reps drove my recovery. The combination allowed me to get back on the golf course after spending 6-8 months trying to work through it on my own. After about 2 months, I was able to return to playing golf without pain. Her technique with needling also proved to be very helpful at providing immediate relief. I recommend Dr Dubrow and her professional combination of nutrition,

I did not like her at all. She made some very inappropriate/unprofessional comments during one of my visits. While reviewing my intake documents, she noted (aloud) the fact that I was divorced, which I confirmed. Later, while she was observing my stride to help pinpoint the problems I was having with my feet, she made the comment, "Well, I can see for one thing that you do not push-off with your toes when you walk. That will lead to under-developed gluteus maximus muscles. Is that why your wife divorced you -- because you have a mushy butt?". I was stunned and horrified -- what an amazingly unprofessional comment to a client. I found another therapist.

I’ve been very happy with the treatment I’ve received. I have a pinched nerve in my back and some nerve damage in my foot. The treatment has relieved the issues with my back and my foot feels better than it has for years!

Four weeks after a knee replacement I started physical therapy with Dr. Dubrow. Four weeks into my program I am walking without pain, swinging a golf club, riding the bike for 30 minutes at a time, and lifting weights. It's not only because of a very customized plan she has built for me, but also because I'm doing the work away from physical therapy. She has been very open about what's working and what's not, and if I feel I need to make a change, she is all for it. You can expect a very personalized approach to your recovery.

Dr Dubrow took the time to understand the root cause of my problem, she put together a plan of stretches and exercises that allowed me to be better than I was before seeing her. She has a great staff and a very personal overall experience. Her golf program is fantastic. Playing pain free and much more consistently. Could not ask for a better physical therapist. Thanks so much...

Dr. Dubrow really cares about her patients. She really listens, develops a plan, explains the plan, and then goes to work on helping you live a better life. She has really decreased my chronic pain due to CRPS! Dr. Dubrow has taken the time to educate herself in so many areas so that she can help her patients! I really appreciate all her and her staff have done to help me.

Dr. Dubrow is a phenomenal. She always listen to her patient complain and had specialized treatment plan to get you back with your life. She has the caring hands to ease you with your pain. I am so grateful with excellent care that I received. I am heading to my recovery and pain free life.

I love Dr. Dubrow. She knows her stuff, and I don't think I've ever come across a physical therapist who knows as much or has the passion that she has. Dr. Dubrow never has more than one patient at a time. Her full focus is on you for the entire session. I highly recommend her.

I have had back pain for years. Dr. Dubrow was the first person I have seen that was interested in finding the problem and not just brushing it off. After several visits my back fells better than a long time. She is a true professional and I will pass the word that she is the best in the business.
