From Our Patients

See what our patients have said about working with Revive Therapy!

I had a wonderful experience at Revive Therapy. The one on one time Dr Santoro spends with his patients is exceptional and it really shows in his care. He is professional and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

Kait R.

I think the thing that is very impressive about Revive Therapy and Dr. Santoro, is his attention to his patients. Unlike most other places in the area, Dr. Santoro does not schedule more than one person every 45-60 minutes and he doesn’t double book his patient appointments. I went through Physical Therapy at other bigger places and was always being seen with at least two or three other patients at the same time….but not at Revive Therapy! Hopefully, I never get hurt again, but if I do, I’m going back to see Dr. Santoro.

Maria R.

I saw Dr. Santoro for lower back pain. I could barely walk when I went to see him and I was in extreme pain. Dr. Santoro was extremely thorough when analyzing the issue, performed manipulations on my back, and even gave me exercises to work on at home so I can avoid this issue in the future. I left feeling great. Not only is Dr. Santoro professional and an expert in his field, he is very personable.

Laura C.

I had no idea Physical Therapists could perform joint manipulations (or adjustments as I knew them before) until I met Dr. Santoro. He is specially trained in advanced manual therapy procedures, and this really shows in his ability to manually fix an issue and then reiterate with corrective exercise. I’m happy to admit I’m never going to need to go back to my chiropractor.

Susan H.

Going to Revive Therapy and working with Dr. Santoro, you find he is attentive to you while you are doing your exercises to make sure that you are doing them correctly. He is encouraging throughout. He is a professional, knowledgable and a gifted Physical Therapist. I highly recommend this practice to anyone of any age or treatment scenario.
