David B. Koch, PT

Awesome physical therapist who genuinely cares. I had a herniated disc and lower back pain. I was in so much pain and doing spinal decompression with my chiropractor that didn't help. Dave gave me the knowledge needed to help take my pain away and gave me the confidence to move. I am now lifting weights again, running, golfing, able to do my job as a nurse, and living my life. Dave is also a movement coach and instructor who works in all three planes of the body with mobility, stability/strength and flexibility. He shares his knowledge with the goal of the patient being able to troubleshooot their own pain. I am so glad I found Dave!

Dave has been my PT for 9 months and I would not be walking today if it was not for him. After a devastating injury that left my right femur shattered, the surgeon did not expect me to be able to walk again (I was 76 years old). However he ordered physical therapy to strengthen my legs and he gradually increased my weight bearing capacity. With Dave's encouragement and insistence that I could do more than just sit in a chair, I am now walking with a walker and improving every week. His knowledge of musculature and how our bodies work surpasses that of any PT I've had in the past.

Shortly after I met Dave at the Scottsdale Y several years ago, where he was playing racquetball on one court, and I was playing handball on the adjacent court, I began going to Dave, as needed, primarily for a bad lower back , in part from scoliosis (curvature of the spine) plus from assorted sports injuries over a span of 40+ years from high school wrestling, to softball, to snow skiing (only once, high school, but it was enough to tear a ligament))from my ankles to my wrist, to my back ,and to my neck. In a word, i think he's terrific! He's well-versed in what he's doing,and in what I need, plus, he's affable, he LISTENS to your ailments , responds to them, and he gives me exercises to do at home --but sadly, I confess to not doing them as regularly as I should. Shame on me.

Less than half hour and he was trying to find things to do and talk about in my opinion. I was already doing things that he did at home and went to a physical therapist for new remedies. Billed my insurance for many things, I recommend not gong here, find a place with reviews he has one now I hope this will help the needy person.
