I first came in with a bad knee and stretching and strength exercises quickly improved the problem. Secondly my balance needed to be addressed. Learning that I had poor walking habits was a big surprise. With good encouragement from Carol Weber I learned better habits walking, turning and using steps both up and down. Now I can recognize if I am walking incorrectly. I am very pleased with the support and encouragement I received from Madden & Gilbert.

My experience here at Madden has been great. Carol has not only cured my back troubles but also helped with balance concerns. Everyone has been like family but also very professional. If I have any physical issues in the future I will be back. Thank you Carol and staff.

Before coming to Madden & Gilbert at Hershey, I was hesitant to come to physical therapy even with months of irritable hip and back pain from a past softball injury. After being recommended by my doctor to attend here, I gave it a chance and was not disappointed. I can see and feel significant improvement. The environment was cheerful and I looked forward to coming every session. Everyone was so welcoming and I’m beyond grateful to Katelyn for working with me these past few weeks. I would definitely recommend Madden & Gilbert at Hershey for anyone looking for a place with phenomenal physical therapists and a caring environment.

I am writing a review that is from Jim Young. He stated that he had pain in his right shoulder. It made it difficult to sleep at night and work. After having PT, he reports that he can sleep all night and work without pain. He states that the facility was very clean. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly.

I have been working with Jan for about a year to address pain and fatigue issues due to hypermobility and dysautonomia. Even though I didn't have any formal diagnoses when I came in, Jan always took my symptoms seriously and worked with me to find solutions. I even was able to have my first sessions in a private room with the lights off to accommodate my sound and light sensitivity and moved out into the main room once I was more familiar with the environment. I've made enormous progress since last year that I feel is largely due to Jan's knowledge and expertise. I truly can't say enough good things about the whole office! I know most people come to PT for specific injuries, but I really encourage anyone with a chronic condition that affects the muscles or connective tissues to reach out to this office for help.

I came to Madden & Gilbert to see Jan after my grandpa recommended it. I had struggled with chronic shin splints for over four years and couldn’t reduce the pain unless I stopped running completely. As a college field hockey player, this made it challenging to train and compete. Jan analyzed my gait to take pressure off my lower legs and helped me improve balance and mobility. What made the biggest difference was starting laser therapy. For the first time in years, I was able to run without pain it’s been a game changer in my recovery. Jan truly cared about me, and everyone at the office was so welcoming. I am so grateful for my experience here!

I went to Madden & Gilbert due to sciatic nerve and hip pain. It was preventing me from sleeping and made it difficult to sit for more than an hour. I started seeing Adam and opted for the laser treatments they offer. After 3 treatments my pain was really reduced and it made it much easier to fully recover my strength. After about 6 weeks total I am back to normal. THANK YOU to Adam and all the team at M&G ...excellent customer service, kind, friendly staff...highly recommend . If i need any PT in the future I will return.

When people think of physical therapy, they usually don't think of headache/migraine therapy. Maybe they should. After dealing with daily headaches and frequent migraines for more than 23 years, I finally saw a neurologist. I now take daily medication which has lessened the intensity as well as the frequency of my migraines. However, I still have head pain daily and need to supplement the prescription med with Tylenol. My neurology practitioner suggested PT. Thanks to Ryan at Madden & Gilbert my headaches are no longer daily and the pain is less intense when I do have a migraine. I continue to take prescription medication but have significantly reduced the need for Tylenol. In fact, for the first time in 23 years, I have gone for more than 30 days without taking any Tylenol!! This is amazing! I am confident this pattern will continue. I am grateful my practitioner suggested PT. And, I am most grateful to Ryan and the staff of Madden & Gilbert! They are incredible and I highly recommend them!
Barbara Janecko from Hershey
Huge thanks to Jan and the Madden & Gilbert team! When I started physical therapy, I was struggling with pain in my legs and lower back. I felt tight and inflexible and couldn’t comfortably play on the floor with my son. Jan took the time to listen, evaluate, and create a thoughtful, personalized plan to get me moving again. Over the course of a few months, she helped me build strength and flexibility, reduce pain, and regain the ability to do something so important to me. Her expertise, encouragement, and care made all the difference. Thank you!

Madden and Gilbert PT is the best! I have improved mobility and overall fitness to a level that I haven’t been able to achieve in a very long time. Dr Jan Grove is amazing. I credit her for my improvement. She is brilliant in her assessments and abilities to key in on areas of pain and finding ways to improve my mobility. I have been to many physical therapist over the years, as I have a lot of arthritis and multiple joint replacements (knee, right and left hips, and fusion of 5 levels in my side). One of the things that sets Madden and Gilbert apart is that they do manual care. They don’t just give you a bunch of exercises and send you on your way. They work with the patient till you actually get better. Dr Jan is truly the best physical therapist with magical hands.
Jeannie W. from Hershey
Everyone at Madden and Gilbert have been helpful in my recovery allowing me to return to running. Before I came, I had near constant knee pain that persisted for months despite stopping my normal exercise routine. I couldn't walk or use stairs without my knee hurting. I have been working, with them by my side to strengthen my body. Now that I am done with PT I rarely experience any kne pain and I’m cleared to return to the sport I love. I am leaving prepared to return to my routine activities and have a catalog of exercises that I can use to keep myself strong in areas of precious weakness. After working with them, I have a half marathon coming up that I fell prepared for to run painfree.
Katelyn Gingrich from Hershey
Had a great experience with everyone here from Deb at the front desk to Dr. Jan. Jan knows her stuff and helped get my osteoarthritic knee feeling better and stronger.
