West Los Angeles Physical Therapy

“Thanks to everyone at Westwood Physical Therapy for being so courteous and helpful during my course of physical therapy. I am now able to continue my favorite weekend activity-hiking, which I had previously given up due to the pain I was experiencing. I will definitely recommend Westwood Physical Therapy to anyone looking for a top notch physical therapy team.”

“After suffering nerve injury in my neck that caused a partial paralysis to my left arm, I received the best rehab to get me back to my normal range of movement. Nerve injuries take longer to heal but the treatment worked, and I am so grateful to the staff of Westwood Physical Therapy. Being a retired physical therapist myself, I recognize good treatment and this was it!”

“It has been one week since I successfully completed my physical therapy treatment at Westwood Physical Therapy. I can’t tell you how much I miss the entire staff’s friendly smiling faces. My therapist was very knowledgeable; sometimes she seemed to help me more than my orthopedist! I would not hesitate to recommend their very professional services.”

“Michelle made me feel as if I was her most important patient and under her professional and caring attention my impatience to heal was easily controlled in less time than I thought and my rotator cuff surgery was soon a part of the past. She even helped to ease my discomfort with some heel pain (plantar fasciatis problems) adding almost full capacity to the practice of my favorite sports. And yes, I am 68 years old and still very active. I silently keep thanking Michelle very often and I do recommend the whole Westwood Physical Therapy establishment for their efficient organization, kindness, and professionalism”

“To my favorite physical therapists: Ciao to all, just wanted to touch base with you and letting you know that I became a dad. Hope everything is well and that more and more patients are getting better thanks to your work!”

“I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the way my therapist helped me regain the use of my arm, eliminate the need for over-the-counter pain relievers, and lift the depression that comes with limited mobility. The quality of your staff has always been impressive.”

"I recently had the good luck to be treated by Amy Calhoun, P.T. at Westwood Physical Therapy. It was the most amazing and rewarding experience because, like a lot of people suffering from chronic pain, I just thought I had to 'tough it out' on my own and that I would really never get better. Much to my surprise and only after a couple of treatments I felt remarkably better. I was so excited; I never realized how pain can change your personality and make you more depressed. One of the best things about Amy;s treatment and expertise was her showing me how I could help myself with self-correcting home exercises. Her relaxed but very professional attitude and lack of judgment if I wasn't able to do an exercise correctly made me progress that much faster

So, even though I have to keep up the exercises at home in order not to regress, I can't believe how much better I feel. The pain in my hip and low back is basically gone. I am so grateful for the staff at Westwood Physical Therapy but most of all for Amy and the great work she did with me!"

"Susie is fantastic! She helped me tremendously. She really deserves a good bonus or a pay raise for her great work!!!"

"I received superlative care from Susie Goodridge while rehabing my knee. She was smart, competent and most of all effective; with a friendly, approachable and pleasant demeanor. I have already recommended Westood Physical Therapy to a friend, and would again. Thanks, Susie!"

"I had to find out how dangerous surfing was by trial and Error. In Manhattan Beach, I rode a wave head first into a sand bank. My neck was so sprained my chiropractor would not touch me. An MRI revealed that I had 1/2 my normal neck mobility and two of my vertibre had been compressed. A nerve specialist said I would take 3 years to recover.

Running out of options, I found Susie Goodridge at Westwood Physical Therapy. With twice weekly sessions and extensive home exercises, Susie put me back together again.

Prior to my Physical Therapy visits, I didn't have the stamina to work my damanding career in commercial real estate. After four weeks with Susie and continuing the exercises she taught me, I worked virtually pain free and did not miss a single day over the next year."
