  • Didn’t Think I’d Feel This Good Again!

    Knee and wrist pain from arthritis was making me feel so old! After ripping up my stomach with NSAIDS and doing cortisone shots with no relief, I limped into Gilbert to try something different. I felt better almost immediately, did all the at home exercises religiously and by week 5 I felt like myself again, but even better and stronger! Chris, Matt and Melanie are the absolute best and have been a pleasure to work with!

  • Feeling Better & Stronger!

    Prior to coming to Gilbert PT, I was having trouble with my right leg giving way when I would get up from a seated position. I was having difficulty walking any distance and had nerve pain in my left leg and hip. My sleep was disrupted and energy level was low. I had difficulty working on my hobby car…experiencing discomfort during and after a work session.

    On my first visit to Gilbert I was impressed with the amount of prep work and baseline information that was gathered. Jon reviewed my medical records and MRI reports to determine what needed to be done to correct several issues, with stability being the first item to focus on. Exercises and stretches were adjusted based on my feedback.

    I first went to Gilbert on 4/27 and within 2 weeks I had no more issues with my leg giving way. It’s now July 19, I feel better and stronger than I have felt in years. I can walk and am sleeping through the night without pain. Working on cars and exercising are all part of my routine again.

    I can’t stress enough how different my Gilbert PT experience was as compared to other facilities. The team here takes the time to adjust to the patient’s condition and feedback while providing a solid foundation of exercises that will improve your quality of life.

    Thank you Jon, Pat, Erin, and everyone at Gilbert! Go birds!

  • Back to Normal!

    Prior to the therapy, sciatica pain limited my ability to walk, stand, or sit for very long. Chris, Matt and the team have helped me to vastly improve my ability to do these activities for longer periods of time without pain. Their treatment and encouragement have been greatly appreciated.

  • Pain Free and Grateful!

    Bursitis in my hip prevented me from walking, sitting and climbing stairs pain-free. Sleep was affected as well. The staff at Gilbert was excellent in working with me, teaching me and encouraging me through the exercises. Dr. Abbey, Rachel and Matt worked as a team and provided considerate and consistent care, and I am now pain free and grateful!

  • I’m on the path to a full recovery!

    I had a wonderful experience here at Madden. I arrived with neck pain that radiated through my right arm, down to my fingertips. Through the weeks of my therapy the pain and tingling completely subsided. My strength is gradually recovering. Thanks to the progressively harder exercises Matt prescribed. I’m on the path to a full recovery thanks to Madden Physical Therapy!

  • Improved Motion and Less Pain!

    My rotator cuff injury made it difficult to do activities requiring lifting weighted objects, reaching to the side and behind, and reaching overhead. With Physical Therapy, my range of motion has improved and the pain has decreased. Luke, Jamie, and Josh are a great professional and personable team that makes Physical Therapy “less painful.

  • Extended Family

    I am ready to get back to my normal life since having my knee replacement. I can now do everything as before thanks to Madden Therapy & their great staff. The staff is so friendly & they gave 110%, they went above & beyond. I was also having other painful issues that Dan took care of for me. I feel almost 100% thanks to coming here. This is a very caring group of people that feel more like extended family. I never thought therapy would be so enjoyable. Many thanks to the gang & God bless them. I would recommend them to everyone. Thanks so much for all you have done.

  • No More Pain Meds

    My PT helped me to get back to normal. Prior to beginning PT I had pain in my neck and right arm along with numbness in my index finger. The pain would wake me early every morning and prevented me by eliminating the pain in my name and arm. The throbbing has stopped I can sleep in any position I want with no pain all night. I’m off all the paid meds and have my quality of like back. Thank you, Connor and team.

  • Pleased with Progress

    When I first came to therapy, I had very limited motion in my left ankle. It hurt to walk and use the stairs. It also interfered with my balance. Danny worked diligently to increase my range of motion in the ankle as well as giving me exercises to help my balance. I am extremely pleased with the progress I have made under his care.

  • Jan, Ryan, Kaylee & Sami worked together to help me get back to walking without pain in my knee & back. Hands on therapy was very helpful. I left with stretching & strengthening exercises that I can do as needed to help me continue to be pain-free. I reccomend Hershey Madden & Gilbert PT to my family & friends.

  • I can’t say enough good things about Jan and her team. They are very professional, always welcoming, and very personable. I had a couple of issues with my back, leg, and finger, and within 2 months I had no more pain. I never felt like I was “just another number” with them like I have at other places in the past, and they never made me feel rushed while I was there. If I ever need physical therapy again I will 100% go back to them.

  • I attended one of the rotator cuff workshops at the Hershey office and was immediately impressed by the friendliness and knowledge of the physical therapists and I was quick to schedule my first PT session with their office the very next week to begin my journey of healing from a small rotator cuff tear. Following every session, my mobility increased and my pain decreased a little bit more. After approximately four months of therapy, I feel better than ever and am able to participate in all of my pre-injury activities! Extra shout out to Kaylee and Jan for their patience, guidance, hands-on treatment, and for simply being genuine, caring, kind, fun, personable and sensational young ladies!

  • My jaw has greatly improved since seeing Jan! I took a bite out of a breakfast sandwich and my jaw locked. This had never happened before. I was very restricted on how far I could open my mouth for months…eating a hamburger was very painful. I came to realize my problem was primarily muscular, not skeletal. Through massaging my jaw at the correct place and doing exercises I would never have thought of, my jaw is back to normal. Thanks, Jan!

  • I was very pleased with my entire experience from start to finish!! Everyone was so kind and knowledgeable. I was able to get my shoulder and knee pain relieved. Thanks so much Madden and Gilbert!! I highly recommend them.
