Short Version:
If you are suffering from any type of physical pain or limitation this is the place you need to go to! I was considering having a second back surgery, but with Dr. Huang's help that is no longer the case.

The Long Version:
I've been working with Dr. Huang for about 4 months now.
When I came to him I was considering having a second back surgery (fusion at the L4-L5) I was in severe pain from the longest flare up I've had since back surgery which at that point had lasted about 3 months. I lived on the sofa with pillows propping my legs up. I could hardly move and I was miserable hence considering the second back surgery which I had been fighting since 2019. Up to the point before I had this big flare up I was active as much as my back allowed, but my body compensates as I have a dropfoot. After the flare up I could barely find my way to the kitchen & restroom.

Working with him made me realize that there are parts of my body that lack the strength needed to support my body, and that my routine way of movement was exacerbating this.
Mind you, I have had this injury since 2016 and had seen countless of "physical therapist" none who have ever been this detailed and taught me as much as he has. Also I'd like to point out that those physical therapist were all through workers comp and that Dr. Huang works for himself, but this is the reality of our health care system, when you visit those places you are just another patient and there is no individualize program. Which is why they failed for me.

And yes, I am not recovered 100% obviously I've had one back surgery and have a dropfoot, but with his help I am back on my feet and getting stronger with my individualize program. And I trust that with his expertise I can have a better quality life in time.

Due to the positive outcome I had with him in my first month, I brought my mom to see him as she had been suffering from foot and calf pain for over a year. She saw many doctors, and no one was able to help. After working with Dr. Huang for 1 month my mom's pain greatly reduce, and now she is feeling much better.

I cannot express enough my gratitude for the commitment Dr. Huang has toward his patients. I wish we had more practices that shared his values. Thank you so much for all you do Dr. Huang.

I have worked with John on a couple of occasions. He does very good work. This time, I went to him with a shoulder problem. I have now been performing the exercises he recommended for several weeks. The pain has decreased significantly and I am getting to where I can finally workout and study my martial arts like I usually do. He does very good work.

Dr. Huang has helped tremendously getting me feeling better. I had been having lower back (herniated disc) and sciatic issues when I was referred to him by my chiropractor. John was able to help identify the root cause of my issues and through lots of hard work on strengthening my core, I am back to playing golf and enjoying a much better quality of life. I would highly recommend Dr. Huang!

John is the best PT I've ever had, and I will strongly recommend him to anyone dealing with sports injuries of any type. After 2 years of living an extremely sedentary life during the pandemic, I tried returning to rec sports 3-4 times a week, and ended up plagued by hamstring strains and pulls. These continued for 4 months while I saw other physical therapists. When I started seeing John, I was immediately impressed by his wholistic approach, and within 2 months I was back on the field feeling like my old self. Now it's 6 months later and I still haven't had any issues with my hamstring. John has also helped me see progress with mobility issues that I've dealt with for the last decade, and I truly believe that he can help me with any sports-related injury I may get in the future. Plus he's one of the coolest guys around and always has a dope playlist ready to share

It was great working with Dr John! Every session was always very informative and I felt like I could noticeable see and feel the progress each session! He was very easy to work with and talk to which made sessions more valuable to me. I had come looking for answers to rock climbing specific issues that had been impossible to figure out through all the free resources on the web and thankfully he was able to help me narrow it down and help me understand the root issue. I am now greatly, if not fully, improved and my confidence is back to near 100%! I’m excited to continue to use what I’ve learned to keep improving and live pain free! I highly recommend Dr John!

I highly recommend Dr. John. He is a great listener and gives practical advice that is easy to follow. I recently took my step dad, Jack, in for a visit with Dr. John. Jack was worried about his knees. They were weak and he was afraid that exercising them would make it worse. To compensate he was walking hunched over and dragging his feet. Dr. John really listened to Jack's concerns (I was there eavesdropping =) Then, he had Jack walk for him the way he normally does. Dr. John saw the problem and gave Jack a very through explanation of what was happening and why. He had him walk using his heal first and practice it a few times, which made a huge difference. Then, he gave Jack exercises to do at home to strengthen his knees. Jack came home feeling so confident about what to do to get better and was no longer afraid of doing the wrong thing. I was THRILLED to see him walking heal first and standing up strait. This will be a game changer for his posture and mobility in the future. Thank you so much Dr. John!

I first came to Dr. John for some finger pain due to climbing. He was able to easily diagnose the issue and put me on a finger rehab plan. After a couple weeks, fingers were good and I was back to climbing. Since then I've been back to Dr. John for knee pain, wrist pain and anything that pops up. I highly recommend Dr. John.

I've worked with John now for over a year to address chronic knee and lower back pain. John is very knowledgeable and fun to work with, and also has a great network of experts that he often will refer you to. Overall, I made tremendous improvement and a lot of it is thanks to John.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about John. He takes a very holistic approach to physical therapy and continues to work with you towards your goals even after your session is complete. He helped train my body to use and engage different muscles to alleviate the problem area pain. On top of being a great PT, John is a great person overall and I am happy to recommend him to everyone I know!

I've attended multiple PT facilities due to prior injuries, and Dr. John Huang's practice is easily miles above all others I have been to. His knowledge of anatomy and how the body should move to prevent injury and maximize performance is vast.

I first came to Dr. John a few months ago with a lower back injury from squatting. Within the first session, he was able to identify the core issues that contributed to my injury. He gave me the first few exercises that I needed to get my body to adapt to functioning in a way that is more optimal and relieve the stress I was putting on my lower back. Over the next few months, we met a few more times and each session I learned more about how I can adapt my training to prevent injury and optimize performance. At other PT facilities, it is common for them to take a one-size-fit-all approach which led to me not seeing results and feeling frustrated. From the beginning, Dr. John was serious about understanding my goals, developing a plan to meet those goals, and ensuring that I'm well informed along the way.

I highly recommend Dr. John as he helped immensely with my fitness journey.
