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.

Helped my shoulder pain
I was diagnosed with bicep and rotator cuff tendinitis earlier this year. Very painful condition and was really affecting my ability to paddle and surf. I got treatment with Dr Matt for about a month and I am already feeling way less pain and I was able to surf the other day for the first time with very little soreness afterwards. My experience was great overall I have already recommended Dr Matt to my friends!

I’ve had low back pain with pain shooting into my left leg on and off for several months and after three weeks of treatment with Dr Matt I feel much better and I’ve learned some very helpful stretches to help me manage my symptoms in between treatments. I was searching YouTube for videos to help but it’s just not the same as having a hands on professional clinician working with you…but thanks to Dr Matt and Marque PT

The entire experience felt different than other PT's. Very efficient doctor got right down to the injury diagnosis correcting previous diagnosis of rotator cuff injury (it was really my bicep tendon injured and Dr Szkalak was the one to figure that out) and treatment plan. I always felt listened to and very well cared for. Hopefully won't get injured again but if I do Im coming here first

Great PT
About a year ago I was in a car accident that left me with disc issues in my neck and low back and constant pain. I have tried different kinds of treatment like chiropractic and injections but didn't feel like they did much. The physical therapy I had with Dr Matt has greatly improved my flexiblity and strength overall and also decreased the pain I feel on a daily basis. He took time to explain why we were doing things in a way that really made sense. I had a great experience working with him and would recommend him to anyone - even if you have already tried other types of treatment

Had severe neck pain that Dr Szkalak was able to help me with. His hands on techniques are excellent and the exercises I was given have helped me a lot
