    ... I had a difficult break in my foot and thought things would be easy once I got off crutches. Boy was I wrong!

    Getting back to normal activity after 3 months off my foot was quite an adventure. I had a really hard time getting answers from my doctors on what was going on, what I could expect moving forward, and how I could maximize chances of a full recovery. It was pretty discouraging, and I was starting to wonder if I'd ever get back to my normal life again.

    Working with Kerry helped turn all that around. She was incredible about explaining what was going on, and helped me feel confident about when I could push and when I needed to back off. She even contacted my orthopedist to help resolve some confusion I had on his instructions. ...

    Kerry is a fantastic physical therapist. I hyperextended my knee in February and she got be back on track and in shape within 6 weeks. Due to her program my knees have never felt stronger in the past decade. I can't thank Kerry enough for her help.

    Kerry is wonderful to work with. She worked with me on a TMJ condition and got my back and neck to a position that facilitated less pain at my jaw. I felt much stronger in my posture at work as a secondary result. We worked with dry needling and manual treatments and she was always great at explaining everything. She is very friendly and a joy to work with!

    I started working with Kerry Susser before she started DC Physical Therapy and I followed her there,because she was so wonderful. She has been treating me for lumbar neuritis and knee osteoarthritis. The pain and spasms were throughout my leg, hip, and back area, and had limited my functional well being and activity level substantially. It has been a slow but steady progress, building strength, flexibility, improving my posture and body awareness, and using deep tissue manipulation, dry needling, and trigger point therapy. She recommended I go back to my orthopedic surgeon for further imaging and reevaluation. I brought her assessment with me. My orthopedic surgeon was so impressed. He said he had never seen such a thorough and professional assessment from a PT. Apart from her deep knowledge and systematic approach ...
