SSM Health Physical Therapy - Kirkwood - South

Everyone is leaving 5-star reviews for Dr. Nolan Rappé for a reason: he is genuinely 1:1. There's a reason he's the finest in the business. His advanced knowledge and comprehension of physical therapy sets him apart from other physical therapists I have gone to. Nothing about his methodology is conventional or cookie cutter. Every action you take with him is unique to you and you alone. He will make you stronger and healthier than you were before your first session, which is why so many collegiate and professional athletes visit him. I am traveling four hours every week from Springfield just to visit him, so trust me, going to Nolan is absolutely 100% worth it.

One week here and I’ve seen a world of difference in my TKR recovery. My PT Juan is encouraging, supportive and patient in his approach. The entire staff is welcoming and friendly. I’ve been to several other PT practices in the St Louis area and SSM is by far the best!

My physical therapist - Amanda - is both knowledgeable and capable with 21 years of experience. I trust her. She is helping me regain mobility in my hip, and strength in other joints.

I have been going to this place for at least 15 years, either for my late wife and more recently for myself. The staff is very friendly and the therapists are top notch. I especially recommend Amanda.

I found SSM physical therapy to be an excellent choice for my PT. All the staff is very professional and knowledgeable. My PT, John was very dedicated to improving my mobility.

Amanda Chumley is absolutely amazing! She is professional and prompt. She explains everything that she is doing to rehab my hip after surgery. She is encouraging answers all of the questions and or concerns that I have. It is a nice change to see someone that actually loves what they do and always gives 100% I would recommend her to everyone. Please also note that the entire staff at this location is amazing. The front staff always greets you with a smile and respect. Watching the other therapists I can see that they all care about their patients and love what they do. As of the last few years this had not been my experience in many facets of the medical world .. so your staff needs to be commended

I wanted to give a shout out to Nolan Rappe, DPT, and the excellent therapy he provided to me in dealing with some rotator cuff tendinopathy. As a guitarist and guitar teacher, shoulder rotation in my strumming arm is pretty critical--and through exercises and other therapies, my pain level has dropped from roughly 8.5 to a much more manageable 1 to 1.5. Nolan is extremely knowledgeable, with a great personality to match. And while he probably deals with more sports-related injuries/therapies, he tailored an exercise routine for me that has had dramatically wonderful results over the past few months. Thank you, Doc, and to SSM PT!

Amanda has helped me with a persistent shoulder problem that other Physical Therapists could not. I'm doing less exercises but with much better results. She is currently helping me with a sore lower back which is feeling much better, thanks to the exercises that Amanda has given me.
