"I had an outstanding experience at Function1st Physical Therapy. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome and confident that I was in good hands. Al and Lily are absolute pros—they took the time to understand my injury, thoroughly explained the recovery process, and created a plan that was tailored specifically to my needs. They pushed me just the right amount to make progress without overdoing it, which I really appreciated. The facility is top-notch—clean, well-organized, and equipped with everything needed for effective therapy. Al and Lily’s expertise and attention to detail made a huge difference in my recovery process. If you’re looking for physical therapists who genuinely care about your recovery and know how to get results, Function1st Physical Therapy is the place to go. Al and Lily are simply the best!"

"I had an amazing experience at function first. Al is great and knowledgeable professional. I know if I ever have to come back to physical therapy, I will be coming back here. 10/5 stars if possible."

"If I could give a rating higher than 5 stars I would. I went to Function 1st Physical Therapy for about 10 weeks following my back surgery. I aggravated my back a two weeks after my surgery and could barely move. Within a couple of weeks at therapy I was feeling much better. Al is the best at what he does and really listens to all your concerns and makes modifications to therapy when needed to make sure you are getting the best plan of treatment. I would definitely recommend Function 1st for any of your physical therapy needs. They really are the best! Thanks again Al!"

"I was treated for bad back pain. The therapist, Al, was awesome. He was always super nice and professional. Willing to work with you and change up the workouts depending on symptoms. I always knew he had my best interests at heart. I went to therapy 3 times a week for several months and I never had an occasion where I felt I wasn’t welcome. By the time I was done with my physical therapy , al was more of my friend than therapist. If god forbid you need help with physical pain this is the best place for treatment."

"I had 12 session of physical therapy with Jack. He is awesome, always made me feel very comfortable and helped me out so much. He questioned me on my progress and how I felt every day I had therapy, making sure I was always ok. He’s very personable and very easy to talk to. Ewa at the front desk is also very nice and personable. She kept herself busy answering the phone, wiping down equipment and even washing and folding towels and pillow cases. I will definitely recommend Function 1st. God forbid I need more therapy I will come back and request for Jack to be my therapist. Thank you Function 1st, Jack and Ewa for all you did and making me feel so comfortable!"

"From the first phone call with Maggie, to meeting Jack my therapist, it was all 5 stars ⭐️ & more! Maggie is a bundle of joy! Jack is so kind & knowledgeable, the manual therapy massages were amazing for my pain! At the beginning I was so scared I’ll never be free of pain, but I left yesterday feeling so much better & very confident that I’ll continue to improve each day with the exercises I’ve learned. I also benefited coming here, as the location is 5 mins from home. I’m so happy I choose this place when searching!"

"I highly recommend Function 1st Physical therapy. You get greeted with a smile by Maggie as soon as you walk in the door, and she always makes you feel welcome. She is amazing how she juggles the appointments, to make sure everyone got the times they needed. Jack was my physical therapist, he speaks Polish, English and Spanish, which I know the patience appreciated. He always believed in me, even when I didn't believe in myself. And 98% of the time he was right. He had a big variety of workouts, and would push me to do them even when I didn't think I could. At the end of the workouts he would work out the kinks with ice, heat and amazing massages. Then you have Al another therapist, who I only worked with a few times, and he also would challenge me as well. They saw me at my best and at my worse, and were very sympathetic when I had to have surgery. Like I said, this is a GREAT TEAM There are so many good things I can tell you about all of them. So if you need PT check them out, you will be very happy you did. Thank you Maggie, Jack and Al for everything you do."

"I would like to say that function first is one of the best PT places I have ever have experienced . The care and the amount of attention they give their patients, are far surpassed of an average place . The detail of care that I have received from Jack , and Al has been very helpful to my needs . And the empathy , and compassion that they have for their patients to heal is very genuine . Maggie the office manager is very organized , and detailed to the patient’s personal needs .. as well as getting more visits needed from the insurance companies without any stress I must say Maggie is always pleasant and upbeat to the patients and is always generally concerned about their prognosis and how they are feeling . The atmosphere is very positive as well as healing and I would recommend this place to anyone . Function first is a great place for therapy!!"

"Function 1st goes above and beyond in every way! all physical therapist are knowledgeable, caring, and take time to listen to your needs, they Tailor specific workouts and treatment. Maggie is amazing, and always welcomes you to every appointment, along with answering any questions you may have, 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone seeking physical therapy treatment!"

"My husband Carmen attended physical therapy at Function 1st and he worked with Al and he said it was a wonderful experience. Al knows how to treat patients well, makes them feel at home and as a result my husband shoulder is much better. The staff at Function 1st is outstanding. Maggie the lady at the front desk is amazing. She treats the patients like family and makes the experience worth it. Carmen would recommend Function 1st to anyone that needs physical therapy."

"If you're in need of physical therapy please do yourself a favor and use Function 1st. From my very first visit it was easy to see how passionate Al, Jack, and Maggie are about their clients health. Any question or concern you have is answered and carefully explained to you. I've used a few different places for my injury before Function 1st was recommended to me and they're hands down the best you're going to find. You're going to get the same attention, care and effort working with either Al or Jack. Scheduling is very easy thanks to Maggie and there were no issues with any of my visits when it came to rescheduling if the need arises. Nothing else to say, use Function 1st if you want to properly recover and get back to your normal life."

"Ten out ten"

"The best part about this place is they just care about you getting better. I've been for my bulging disc and only needed half the sessions my orthopedic recommended. Was there again for a shoulder impingement and needed all the sessions recommended. Jack is very good at understanding what you need to get back to normal. I would highly recommend."

"Jack and Al are extremely knowledgeable therapists. I have been coming here after a car accident and Jack has been improving the way I feel while also thoroughly explaining what is happening in my body and giving me peace of mind. Everyone at the office is energetic and welcoming. Maggie, the secretary is great at what she does and always finds a way to accommodate appointments."

"Great experience at Function 1st Physical Therapy. Setting my intro appointment and sessions was easy thanks to the help of Maggie and Al. The office space is nice and also local in my area. Al is very knowledgeable, accommodating, and fantastic to work. Thanks to Al's help, I now have the guidance I need to practice my exercises daily. Thank you team!"

"Could not have had a better experience with this physical therapy. Would definitely recommend for any issue."

"I've been to many places for therapy, nothing compares to function first! They are all extremely knowledgable for your specific condition! I had 2 compression fractures of my thoracic spine, specifically T7 and T8 and when I walked in I was in extreme pain and just a complete mess! I left after 2 months of therapy feeling pretty good! Al and Jack were my therapists and they are as good as it gets!! The entire staff is so friendly and they really care about your condition. I came in not knowing anyone and felt as if I left with a few more friends! Thank you function first!!!!!"

"I can't recommend this clinic enough! PTs and supportive staff are knowledgeable, supportive, kind, and timely. Al and Jacek are experts in their field and the office coordinator, Maggie, is organized, friendly, and always ready to answer questions.

Jack who is my therapist has worked with me since my surgery and after being in chronic pain for years has really worked on getting me mobile and help me to use muscles that have not been used in years due to chronic neck and back pain. Highly recommend them"

My program has strengthen my legs 10 fold. Maggie is great in assisting patients with concerns. Thanks Function1 keep up the great work."

"Although this was my first time going through Function 1st for treatment, it was not my first round of going to PT for low back pain. It's finally better much than it's been in years and I have new tricks to keep it that way. Jack and Maggie were great and accommodating to my schedule. Definitely recommend!"

"Few months back I was diagnosed with a lumbar disc issue and my pain was unbearable. I found 1st Physical through Google and I'm grateful I did. The place is well equipped and clean. My trainer, Jack was amazing. He did not give up on me even though it took much longer for me to get to a good point in my recovery due to the sevirity of my issue. Jack really worked hard on me. Maggie was very helpful and patient with my rescheduling requests, and diligently pursued clearances with my insurance. Thank you 1st Physical."

"After suffering a traumatic neck injury, I wasn’t sure I would have much head rotation after concluding therapy at a prestigious rehab hospital. I was told there was nothing more they could do for me. It felt like a hopeless situation. Then I started PT at Function 1st. A night and day experience compared to the rehab hospital. Function 1st staff is outstanding. They listened to me then created a treatment plan with realistic goals to improve my head rotation and pain flare ups. They also gave me great tools so I can progress at home. I have achieved goals that I thought were not possible. I can function so much better in my day-to-day life. Thanks go out to Al, Jack, and Maggie. Highly recommend Function 1st."

"Dealing with knee pain for many years I said enough!!! After a couple of PT sessions at Function 1st, I could not be more excited about my progress and flexibility improvement. My daughter (@age 20) started working with AL at Function 1st after issues with her spine from golfing. Al worked miracles with my daughter and he is doing the same for me!!! Highly recommend Function 1st and their entire staff."

"Grateful for the all the attention I received from Al (my physical therapist) and Maggie (receptionist). Al takes your recovery very serious and his attention to detail helped me recover from a torn Petella tendon. I was back at work 5 months post op. Highly recommend them due to the fact you will get personalized therapy to your unique injury and body type. Everyone heals different and Function 1st takes that into consideration. Maggie took care of all my insurance issues I had and felt with them while I focused on healing. Thank you Al, Maggie, and Susan from the beginning to the end. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽"

"11/6/2020 This place is great!! I just can't say enough to about them. I feel better than I did before the accident and for the first time in years I am waking up with no back pain. The Owner and therapist Al is wonderful, very personable and his massage technique was extremely helpful. My therapist Mike really knows his stuff and took the extra time needed to come up with the best rehab plan for me. Maggie the receptionist is very helpful. Also the deep tissue laser therapy is the best thing since sliced bread. The pain relief was noticeable from the first session and the pain I have had in my arm for more than 5 years is now completely gone after 5 sessions. If you need PT, this is the place to go !!"

"Great expertise and customer service. I was always treated like a friend. Al pushed me when I needed to be pushed so that I could get back on the ice. He also helped me modify my diet and get into a lot better shape even though I was there to rehab a high ankle sprain. He kept me accountable. The rest of the staff is very personable and very helpful. I'm very thankful I found Function 1st."

"Al is an amazing PT!"
