Gresham, Oregon Physical Therapy Reviews

Before I went, I couldn't walk for 20 minutes without sharp knee pain. After a few months, I can jog a mile and walk 4+ miles, and my knee is no longer the limiting factor. They were friendly and flexible with my schedule. My knee was a problem for years and we solved it quickly, my only regret is that I didn't go in sooner.

The Proactive Gresham team is absolutely amazing, special shout out to Emily, Sam, Mary, Mikaela and Conner. The care I recieved was always just the best and everyone made sure my concerns were heard and that I was comfortable. I was a little nervous having to go outside of my insurance program for care but it was so seamless and easy. Though I'm glad to be healed up and graduated I will miss seeing everyone and getting the weekly heat therapy on my back 🙌. Thank you for all you do. 💚

I had a knee replacement in May & my surgeon sent me to Proactive Therapy for help with recovery. All the therapists & helpers offered help & guidance with
1. making sure I understood why we were doing each activity
2.How to do each of the exercises correctly
3. Offering written guidelines for each exercise
4. Always checking to see improvements & asking me if any of the activities gave me pain or problems when I did them.. If yes new guidelines were offered.
Their constant care & concern for my improvement was very comforting & encouraging.
I work retail & can now work my 7 hr shift & still walk my dog for up to 2 miles each day. I highly recommend Proactive Therapy to anyone who needs physical therapy work.

I was referred to ProActive Physical Therapy Specialist by my medical provider, with Kaiser Permanente. I had Greater Trochanteric bursitis of my right hip. 1st of all, one can choose a clinic closer to where you live. I had positive results within 2 weeks of appointments going 2X/week. My Physical therapist, Glen, promptly diagnosed which specific muscles needed strengthening and provided me copies of those home exercises to practice. The following week I had Emily, a Physical therapy assistant, who added additional exercises to further strengthen my muscles. Within 2 weeks of therapy, I was feeling close to my normal. I highly recommend these PT clinics for their expertise and availability of appointments to support healing quickly.

Brandon is great. He is tailoring my therapy to my needs at my speed (slow) while still challenging me. So thankful.that Kaiser hooked me up!

They show that they care for you, make you feel welcome, they listen to what you are saying, and give you tips and helpful information.

I had the pleasure of taking my friend for her physical therapy and noticed that they truly care for their patients in assisting them with the right exercises to help them with their health issues.

I have been to this place a couple of times (different injuries) and they are good people who work here!
I have worked out with about 4 or 5 of them and learned something everytime for furthering my healing!
Thank you, Glen!

lovely. helpful. friendly

Michelle was always cheery, positive and helpful. She was a good listener when I had challenges….and gave good feedback when 1’d make progress. Overall a great experience with her and the other staff!

My husband had his first appt. With Glen today. First the front desk receptionist is awesome so helpful kind and really knows what she’s doing. She needs a raise. Second Glen was awesome so through and really on top of things.
Excited that my husband with have great improvements in mobility.
My husband said he liked the information that Glen gave him and that he was easy to follow and understand. Nice to see people who take pride in their work.

I had some knee stiffness and dealt with pain when I walked.
The staff has taking the pain down from a seven out of 10 to a two. Dr. Glen and his assistants are very caring and educated. They offer a ton of quality training and very efficient recovery exercises.

I'll be going back soon for more therapy to crunch the pain down to as little as possible.

I'd definitely recommend them for their understanding and kindness.

Great experience, memorable staff and interactions. I totally appreciate the fact that I'm doing better. Flo

Michelle and her team are rock stars! I suffered two different knee injuries from my 80 lb poodle bowling me over while running with other dogs at the dog park. As an avid hiker, and at nearly 70 yrs old, it looked like my hiking career was over. I went to my doc and told him it looked like it was time to hang up my hiking boots because I just couldn't deal with the pain anymore. Instead, he sent me to Michelle at ProActive Physical Therapy.

Now, 2 months later, I'm back on the trail and in training for a 30-mile Wildwood thru hike coming up next year. The knee pain is nearly gone and I'm regaining my strength. Michelle quickly determined that the source of my knee pain was actually weakness in my hips, something the doc never figured out.

Their professionalism and enthusiasm in regard to my recovery never wavered and their senses of humor made the medicine go down just a little bit easier. I highly recommend these people!

See you in the mountains!

The staff at are phenomenal, listening to clients needs, it's a pleasant, happy environment that makes you want to keep your appointments. The office manager that keeps things rolling smoothly and makes appointments is awesome.
Barrett worked with me and I cannot say enough about his amazing skill of learning a clients needs and ability in getting to their progress in their treatment.

Michelle was a joy to work with and also really got me results regaining full movement in my hip!!

This was my first experience going through physical therapy due to an injury and I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to help me through it.

The time, care, and attention to detail that all of the staff at the Gresham clinic displayed was nothing short of incredible. Recovering from my injury was difficult, but everyone kept cheering me on and worked together to make sure that I received the best care possible.

It was bittersweet when I graduated from PT because I built such strong connections with my Physical Therapist and the rest of the staff. I'm happy that I don't have any more appointments, but I know I'm going to miss working with the folks at Gresham every week.

Thank you Kevin, Jenny, Michelle, Glen, Barrett, Mackenzie, Dani, Danielle, and Micah!

Glen and the rest of his staff are Great . They treat you awesome and with respect. I highly recommend Glen Ackers and his staff

Great crew. I have done 34 visits with Michelle or Kevin but I would recommend all of them. I look forward to my appointments and I enjoy working out/exercising in their facility. I am finishing up my last session and I am much stronger now than I was when I started. I have a whole repertoire of exercises that I can incorporate into my routine to keep my knee in shape.

After weeks of discomfort, muscle relaxers, Tylenol, ibuprofen, poor sleep, and missed work my doctor referred me to PT. I hit the jackpot with Glen Akers and his team! Arthritis in my neck + poor posture + a pinched nerve had me miserable. I felt increasingly better with each visit, I would arrive in such discomfort, and then leave an hour later with noticeably less pain. Highly recommend!

GLEN AND THE STAFF ARE AWESOME!!!!

Thank you Glen and sweet Jen for a wonderful therapy experience for my knee replacement. Great knowledge and skill for a positive outcome. Also,thanks to the rest of the clinic team . It was really nice having such a happy and positive team working together that facilitated positive energy to the patients.
