“Kind, patient, and knowledgeable”
“I am new to physical therapy and have been working with Diana for several months. She has been kind, patient, and knowledgeable. My injury was not entirely straightforward but she has been great throughout this process, checking in with me and tweaking our plan as we have gone. Would highly recommend her!”
“Professional and friendly”
“I was assigned Diana Chen and she’s been great. I’ve been going twice a week for a few months now and my back is feeling much better. Diana was extremely helpful. She knew exactly what was wrong and how to work on fixing it. She gave me a quick physical test to determine the areas of pain and then we got right to work in the first session. Each session is a little bit different, which is great. Diana is very professional and friendly. I’d highly recommend her.”
“True master of her craft!”
