TESTIMONIALS

  • Karen K.

    “If you are in pain go see Purwa! I have used her for my shoulder and hip over the last few months. I have worked with other practitioners in the past and none of them compare to Purwa! She is very well versed in human anatomy and is able to pinpoint the source of pain accurately and almost immediately. She has used many different techniques to help relieve the pain I have had. She has used acupuncture, manipulation, ultrasound and massage. She is a very caring person and has given me great exercises to use at home. In addition to her excellent treatment, getting to know her as a person has been a real plus! I have highly recommended her to friends and family for PT.”

  • Marilyn Weisberg

    “Purwa is a wonderful PT, very hands on, very kind. She gives you her undivided time, listens and stays focused on your issues. She is with you for an hour or more and does not hand you off to a PT assistant. It’s a full, intense hour of therapy with Purwa, every time.”

  • Kenneth Wallach

    “Purwa is so kind and a wonderful PT! She takes the full time working 1 on 1 with each patient. She does not have any other patients during our visit, so we do not need to work on our own while she attends to someone else. We never feel rushed and get a great workout each visit. She answers all our questions thoroughly. She is the only PT my family will go to from now on. A very full 5 star rating!”

  • Karen Glassberg

    “I have had many physical therapists over the years and Purwa is the best! Incredible knowledge and really gets to know your issues and creates the perfect plan for your needs. She is kind and funny and always pushes you to do a little more each visit. Always on time and great with follow up and reminders of appointments. I have used her for several issues and will continue to do so in the future.”

  • Linda Macrowitz

    “I cannot say enough about Back to Function . The environment is bright and cheery and PURWA is the absolute best PT I have ever had. She takes the time to really listen to you and is so knowledgeable, professional and helpful ! She fills any need you might have. It is a comfort to know that when I need a PT Purwa is there.

    I highly recommend Back to Function for any of your physical therapy needs. You will be in good hands and your recovery will be successful!”

  • Shoshana Hochwert Moos

    “I have Fibromyalgia, and am therefore continually trying to manage pain issues, and frequent injuries. Since I'm in PT a few times annually, I've come to recognize a good therapist from a great therapist, and Purwa Bhatt from Back to Function is a Great therapist.

    Purwa does a thorough assessment that goes beyond the basic questionnaires. She genuinely listens to a patient's concerns, which often goes beyond the basic questions and testing protocols.

    She is meticulous in her work, passionate in her approach and is always spot on with the appropriate exercises. Purwa has gone over and above what any of my other therapists have done, which has been a great asses for me personally. She thinks outside of the box, which I find a necessity with injuries and pain management, and is a testament to the years of experience Purwa has.

    I would definitely recommend Purwa, and I will be back myself. I hope she enjoys a long, successful business as I'd be hard pressed to find a better Physical Therapist.”
