Premier Physical Therapy & Sports Performance (Inside Palm Harbor Strength & Conditioning)

After a bad fall I had a complete rotator cuff tear and was facing the prospect of surgery. Dr. Hays came highly recommended so I elected to try Physical Therapy first. After a very thorough evaluation, and discussion about what my goals were he came up with a treatment plan that was based on my needs and current level of fitness.. We worked on shoulder strength and mobility, balance, and confidence and at every appointment tailored my exercises to progress and added new moves as I got stronger. I saw Dr. Hays most of the time but also had some appointments with Dr. Chris; both patiently answered my questions and made sure to adjust my routines based on my feedback. After a month my orthopedic surgeon said I was no longer a candidate for surgery! My pain level had decreased dramatically and shoulder function continues to improve. I am very grateful for the care I have received from Premier Physical Therapy and highly recommend them.

Update Review: Four months ago, I wrote a review for Premier Physical Therapy stating the amazing job Dr. Hays, and his staff were doing in helping me to rehab from a major stroke. I prayed to be better and stronger than I was before I had the stroke. That prayer has been answered with the help of Dr. Hays, and his staff. At 73 years old, I am currently doing power walks almost every morning. Last Friday I walked 5 miles on the beach (a record high even before the stroke). After I finished physical therapy, Dr. Hays gave me an exercise program to continue to improve. I do this program at the gym 3 times a week. Premier Physical Therapy helped me to be consistent and disciplined in my ongoing exercise program. I am grateful to Dr. Hays, and his staff for helping me to reach my goal! Who knows maybe a half marathon walk is in the future😎

I had a great experience with Premier PT. Dr. Hays is awesome!! I originally started working with him after experiencing vertigo, and out of the 4 doctors I went to, he was the only one to be able to make it go away and stay away. I then started working with him on my preexisting neck and ankle injuries, and am now able to safely and confidentially lift weights for the first time in years. 100% recommend!

Dr Hays is well equipped with the knowledge and skill set to get you back to where you were before injury. 10/10 PT clinic.

Dr Hays did an amazing job not only with strengthening and improving flexibility with my shoulder, but also taught me better technique for weight training. I highly recommend this provider

Pleased with the services provided by Dr. Hays. I went from having discomfort and issues when lifting to lifting with no discomfort and issues. Highly recommend if you'd like to enhance your performance in lifting and life!

I've had an amazing journey with Dr. Hays on my shoulder's road to recovery. He's not just skilled at what he does, but also brings a level of kindness and patience that's truly rare. His team is helpful and responsive making the process a breeze. Getting appointments that fit my schedule was surprisingly easy. If you're navigating the tricky waters of physical pain, Dr. Hays is your go-to. He's a true gem in the healthcare world!

Dr. Hays is phenomenal! He helped me tremendously with my ankle after breaking it. I’m back to all of my activities and good as new thanks to him.
