Sofia Lindeman is very knowledgeable compassionate and caring. She was quick in diagnosing my issues and very clear in explaining the causes and what can be done. After three sessions with Sophia plus exercises she assigned me to do at home I stopped experiencing constant pain in my lower back that I felt for 15 years!

My wife and I have used the offices of ProFitness Physical Therapy over the course of many years. My wife Gladys can best describe what we found, what we experienced and why she is writing this review. Profitness is different in the best way possible. In describing Profitness and Ken I'll focus on Ken but the entire facility operates the same way. Over many years I have needed physical therapy for a variety of issues including pulmonary endurance, rotary cuff problems, lower back pain. I have used facilities associated with hospitals as well as private practitioners. Based on my experiences I give Profitness a five star plus rating. I believe that Profitness works as well as it does because not only are the therapists caring and well trained but they offer one-on-one therapy for the duration of the session! A few shout-outs to Ken. Thanks to his knowledge and therapeutic approach both Stan and I were able to avoid Rotator Cuff surgery. Ken was a true life saver to me in his approach to my pulmonary issues. He devloped a regimen that I follow at Profitness and at home resulting in improving my lung functioning. During the beginning of the pandemic I needed pancreatic surgery. Using virtual sessions Ken guided me through pre-surgery, getting my body ready for pre & post operative care.Thankful all went well! As Ken says.... "teamwork makes the dream work!". And it definitely does!

Extremely competent and knowledeable group of professionals. Rene, who is my therapist, understands so much about the human anatomy and knows exactly what is causing my balance issues and we work on training my brain to relearn how to control my balance and gait. Rene knows my limits and pushes against them, but never exceeds them. I highly recommend Pro Fitness and Rene, especially.

ProFitness physical therapy facility is a well organized therapy center. I have been to several places in Brooklyn, they are crowded with no space to even sit down.My therapist, Shraddhali Sawant, is excellent. She took her time during our initial visit asking many questions and diagnosing my problem. She laid out what the therapy plan would be and what she is going to work on.

I had a superb experience with Marc, whose attentive care brought me back to 100% strength and mobility post shoulder surgery. I'm back to exercising, tennis, and volleyball without fear of reinjury or regression.I would recommend Marc to anyone interested in a skillful and knowledgeable practitioner!

I finally took the plunge to get physical therapy after trying a bunch of other things to help manage my pain. I've seen so much improvement since coming although it has taken a lot of discipline to make time to do my exercises at home it has definitely been worth it to see the results. My physical therapist, Shraddhali is really supportive, encouraging and personable. Cynthia who's at the front desk is also really helpful and friendly. 10/10 would recommend!

Very impressed with the professionalism of this practice. Rene Rivera is very knowledgeable and answers all my questions with patience and in detail. Having a physical therapist who truly cares and customizes his program to fit individual patient needs has been instrumental to my recovery, especially as someone who suffers from chronic pain. I feel like I am making real progress— highly recommend Rene to all!

I was very reluctant to commit to an extended period of physical therapy but Shraddhali has been so supportive, encouraging, and kind that I will be very sad to leave once my sessions are done . My hip is strong and pain free after following her program for 6 weeks . Treatment is always one-to-one and I have never been left waiting. I cannot recommend this place enough and mostly I cannot recommend Shraddhali enough. 5 stars

ProFitness Physical Therapy is a wonderful place. The staff is courteous, professional and caring to your needs. Cynthia at the front desk is a joy to greet when you first come in which gives you that security needed due to the trauma you are experiencing. Most of all and most importantly my personal Physical Therapist RENE RIVERA is the BEST. I had a full hip replacement. He gives you the confidence during your session by explaining to you all the different exercises needed to get better, why I feel pain in certain places and what to do to relieve the pain. He shows concern with respect to your pain level and does not push you more than what you can do. Always asking "are you ok" or "let me know if you have too much pain" or "we will work at your pain level". In my book Rene is a GREAT therapist, he is a professional at his work but most importantly, as a client he truly works hard with you to help you want to get better. He has a way of lifting your spirits. I hold the highest respect for him and recommend him highly. ProFitness Physical Therapy is the place to go for post-operative therapy. Thank you.

Pro Fitness is a very professional Physical Therapy facility. My therapist, Rene Rivera from the 1st day did a very accurate evaluation of my issues and constantly adjusted the treatment with flexibility according to my needs and progress. Clients are treated with respect and constant attention during the one to one session in a very peaceful, clean and organized space (Which has the perk of some privacy areas as well). I have already recommended to my son who needed some help as well!

ProFitness is an excellent resource for those of us needing Physical Therapy. Initially I was working with a gifted therapist prior to a torn meniscus knee surgery. She strengthened the surrounding muscles and helped me soon after to regain my normal functioning. I continue to work with her for other issues. I am aware that she often is called upon to train other therapists. Each patient is given singular and very focused attention. I recommend ProFitness highly.

I've been working with Shraddhali the past few months and have had a wonderful experience. She's knowledgable, professional, dedicated, and have great attention to detail. It's obvious she cares deeply about her craft and about her patients.Cynthia, the receptionist, is also great. She's efficient, warm, and has been a huge help in getting all the logistics sorted out quickly and correctly.I would recommend ProFitness to anyone who needs physical therapy.

My first time doing PT (for my knee), I found Shraddhali to be incredibly helpful, a great mix of empathy, kindness and encouragement. But she's no pushover! She insisted I could do the exercises with increased repetition and/or weight, and I did. Would highly recommend her.

I came to ProFitness to treat a condition that caused a lot of pain and restricted my shoulder and arm movement. After a few weeks of treatment the pain was gone, and by week 6 my range of motion was nearly back to normal. Helen Li was very professional, knowledgeable, and direct. She was great at assessing my condition and creating a plan to get me where I needed to go. If I ever need PT in the future, ProFitness will be at the top of my list.

I spent the better part of 5 months going to ProFitness in Brooklyn, both Telehealth and in-person appointments, to cure adhesive capsulitis, ligament and muscle tears in my right shoulder. Booking appointments and billing were expertly handled by Cynthia at the front desk. My therapist, Helen Li, has a wealth of knowledge that she readily shared, helping me understand how each exercise would contribute to my progress. Helen adapted treatments for maximum effect and to speed up recovery. The online portal provides a helpful reference for continuing exercises at home. Highly recommend.

Shraddhali Sawant is the best. Not only is she a skillful therapist she is also knowledgeable about how certain medications affect your healing. All equipment is sanitized after every use. No worries about social distancing they have it covered. I would recommend Prifitness Physical Therapy-Brookyn Heights for all your physical therapy needs.

ProFitness was recommended by HSS after my total ACL repair. The experience has been nothing but excellent. The regiment has been helpful with my recovery & I feel 80% close to normal after just 3 1/2 months of therapy. The staff is wonderful & I really appreciate working with Shraddha. The facility is great & they have enough space for social distancing and I like the individual booths for therapists to work one on one with patients. I would highly recommend this location for anyone post-op. Thanks again ProFitness!

Have been going to ProFitness - Brooklyn Heights for just over 3 months rehabilitating a shattered wrist. My PT Helen Li has been amazing during this time. Straight forward in her approach and knowledgable in methods. I have gone from having virtually no mobility and strength in my wrist, hand and arm to being closer to normal functionality. I didn't think I would be this far along in such a timeframe. Helen has been instrumental in guiding me forward. The rest of the staff are welcoming and friendly and easy to work with.

My experience with Michelle has been wonderful. Not only is she a caring physical therapist but she is also a very knowledgeable one as well. If not for her, I would still have extreme pain that was being attributed to my back when it was hips that were the problem. She gets you to do the work by subtle nudging. I am grateful to know her.

My physical therapist was AWFUL. She was totally uninvested in my recovery, gave me bad advice that set my post-surgery rehab back by months. I had knee surgery a year ago and I'm still dealing with the fallout from having had sub-par care for months after surgery. The physical therapist I ultimately switched to told me she had me doing exercises that were totally inappropriate and I could have really hurt myself. Maybe some of the therapists are ok, but this woman was HORRIFIC

I was incredibly impressed with the physical therapy I received from Dustin. Not only did he help wuth my condition, he was incredibly knowledgeable about what he was doing and taught me a lot about the mechanics of my body. I will definitely return to ProFitness in the future if I need PT and will specifically request Dustin.
