Vargo Physical Therapy - Burbank

I've been going to Vargo for 9 months (I had a gnarly recovery from surgery on my hand) and I cannot thank them enough for their extensive help. Everyone there is kind, caring, knowledgeable and extremely patient. I felt like I wasn't healing as quickly as I should have been (no fault to them - I'm a very impatient person!) but they not only helped me to physically stay on track, but mentally as well. They thoroughly explain each exercise, what it's targeting/helping and how it depending on the person, it can take more time to work than others. I also appreciate that they load all of your exercises (with videos!) onto their app to use when doing your exercises at home. Something to keep in mind is that you won't always have the same physical therapist working on you at each appointment. At first I thought that was strange, but I actually really appreciate it since each one brings a different style of therapy and expertise which helps the recovery process. They also know your file/history/progress so regardless of who is working on you, you're getting the best care. Also, a special shoutout to Patty for always being on top of checking patients in, scheduling, answering questions, etc. - she's a rockstar! If it wasn't everyone at Vargo, I wouldn't be able to write this review and I can't thank them enough for all of their help! Oh, and they play awesome music there too. :)

It's been 6 sessions, new patient here. The ladies at front desk are top notch! They answer calls (as a human voice)!! So much easier than automated machines. And they hardly keep you on hold, if at all. They really aim to accommodate patients. They have a very friendly and qualified staff. *First 10 min is a hot pack on the area needed to be worked on. *Next 20 mins you are left to do your exercises (the ones from home) they may add another. ***Then you get 10 minutes of "one on one" physical therapy, hands on w/ a therapist, targeting the area with compressions and soothing techniques, but only for 10 minutes. :( I'm new to this, I expected my appointment time w/ physical therapy would predominantly be one on one time w/ more hands on approach, but most of the time I'm doing what I do at home.

Yesterday was my first visit to Vargo. I was referred there after having had a negative experience with another unrelated therapy center. I had a partial knee replacement and require therapy to regain mobility in my leg. During my session I was impressed by the staff members who assisted me. I received detailed explanations as why I am experiencing pain, my questions were answered, the treatment and exercises I was shown actually alleviated the pain I am experiencing. I was also provided exercises I can perform at home. I was impressed by the professionalism and knowledge shown by the staff and am actually looking forward to completing physical therapy.

My doctor gave me a 6 week physical therapy order. This place defied the doctor and told me the order was complete after less than two weeks. It really complicated things, and nothing was done to look into the issue or rectify the error. It cost me time, money, and interferes with my healing process. I wish they would their patient’s health issues a little more seriously.

Excellent PT venue!! Fabulous folks at the reception desk that greet you, make appointments, & sort out insurance...especially Patty. Excellent therapist named Emily! The PT assistants are smiling, upbeat, & helpful. The physical location is light with big windows & open spaces. The patients encourage each other. If you have to have PT, this is the place to go.

Fantastic place to get better and heal from injury. Marc Comrie, the head therapist is the absolute best. He is great at what he does and loves what he does. He’s helped me get a lot better in a fairly short amount of time. He has the knowledge and the patience to fix what u have going on with your injury. All the employees around him seem to be very efficient and very all hands on deck. They never miss a beat to assist you from when u first get there till you leave. Maria, Joseph, Justin, John...They’re all great and make me feel comfortable to be there. They are helpful and welcoming plus they make me feel confident in healing. Joyce also is another therapist that has worked with me and she was also amazing. Very good on the Astim just like Marc. She also pays attention to detail. I highly recommend this place and working with these rock stars.

I’ve been going here for a few weeks. I’ve felt very safe during COVID. Everyone has masks and seems to take it seriously. The entire staff is extremely friendly; the receptionists even make a strong effort to remember your name!

Vargo is a great PT clinic. Everyone is very kind and friendly and the clinic itself is impeccably clean. Mark has the magic touch and is an important part of my pain management.
