HealthWest Physical Therapy

HealthWest is OUTSTANDING! Gwen, Mitchell, and Alyssa are some of the greatest people you'll ever meet. I have been through my fair share of physical therapy, so my review holds a lot of weight. The facility has everything you'd want. The fact that it's connected to gym is a huge plus. It feels alive, active, and healthy and makes you want to work harder. The atmosphere at HealthWest is the opposite of an elevator music, beige, fluorescent bulb place. I had the pleasure of working with Mitchell, who is simply a massive pile of knowledge, that also excels at listening. There are plenty of PTs who know their stuff, but Mitchell has mastered a unique skill in being able to convey his knowledge in a way that's digestible for us lay people, while truly listening to your concerns and making thoughtful adjustments to your treatment plan. I wasn't able to work with Gwen or Alyssa, but I can share that they always have a smile on their faces and made me feel extremely comfortable. If you think all of this is 'too good to be true', you're wrong. I SPEAK TRUTH!

I have never been a fan of PT, did not feel like I got results. I fractured my patella and needed extensive PT to gain back my muscle strength. I started working with Mitchell and I would not go to anyone else for PT in the future. Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and created a great plan for while I was there and beyond treatment. I enjoyed my treatment and left there feeling much stronger than before I had my fracture. Highly recommend Mitchell!!

I had the most positive experience with Gwen, Mitchell and the whole staff at HealthWest Physical Therapy. They truly care about their patients and really take the time to make sure you heal in the correct manner. I have done PT at other places where they work on you for 15 and then just slap you on a ten's machine and call it a day. Not at HealthWest, they spend the whole session working with you on the actual strength exercises needed to get you back healthy. I will always recommend HealthWest to anyone who is in of PT.

I had the most positive experience with my first time at physical therapy, with Mitchell. You really changed the game when it comes to my fitness journey and really correcting my form, especially when it comes to my ongoing knee problems. Mitchell showed me how to improve my form to get me stronger for my future in weight lifting. Since then, I’ve had zero knee issues when I go to the gym. I really enjoyed my time there and learned SO much. So thankful!! (**Maria Obenauer)

This is no cookie cutter PT center! It is extremely customized for your specific goals/injuries and you'll feel , heard understood and unique. I had the pleasure of working with Mitchell Vandel-Holm. He developed an extremely customized program, not to mention listened to all my concerns, and made me feel cared about. He was so knowledgeable and explained everything in terms that I could understand and apply. I was seen for shoulder impingement, have seen tremendous improvements, and was given a go forward plan that is manageable. I would to recommend Mitchell to anyone that needs physical therapy.

My HealthWest PT regimen has been outstanding. I always had doubts about PT in general, it being elementary, mundane and simply going thru the motions has been my prior experiences. But I can truly say this has been my best experience with “coach” Alyssa and HealthWest. Alyssa is very well educated, explains everything, and works right along with you. I love being tested and pushed to excel, especially with someone overseeing the process that knows exactly what they’re doing and how to truly help. I doubt anyone else I’ve dealt with in the past would have even known how to read my MRI report. Plus the whole staff and scheduling has been great.

I’ve been a patient of Gwen and Mitchell for a few months now. I can whole heartedly tell you that if it weren’t for PT I wouldn’t be where I’m at today. I came in from a broken foot injury and discovered a can of worms with other painful areas. Each visit Gwen really takes her time, she’s hands on and will even provide a nice but painful massage if necessary. Gwen is very easy going and I truly enjoy coming to see her weekly. Both Gwen and Mitchell are very passionate and want to help their patients. One thing I will mention, this office is connected to a volleyball gym. While in the office it can be a loud at times. Although not a deal breaker for me, just know that you will hear loud gym noises during your session if you come during “after school hours”. Thank you Gwen and Mitchell!

Gwen and Mitchell have helped me with two knee replacement recoveries this year! They are great! They continually evaluate my progress and work on my leg (still recovering from right knee replacement). They are very caring to help me the most without unnecessary pain! I recommend them highly for any physical therapy need!
