Coastal Carlsbad Reviews

"I’ve been in and out of physical therapy clinics since 2015 due to my job as a UPS delivery driver for the past 29 years.My recent experience at Gaspar Physical Therapy was by far the best. I went in with shoulder pain in February. Couldn’t raise my arm without pain. I’m grateful to say that I am pain-free today. The whole team there is great, But I want to say that Dar, my therapist, was the best therapist I ever had. I can’t put into words how happy I am that I can raise my arm without pain. But what I learned there,the knowledge I have moving forward, is priceless for my shoulder health!"

"I need to take the time to say "Thank You" to everyone at Gaspar in Carlsbad! From the time I called and Jess answered the phone I new I had chosen the right place to begin to heal my right shoulder. When waiting to get started with my Physical Therapy, I noticed everyone working there were taking Pride in their workplace. As you look around everyone was cleaning, sanitizing, folding towels to ensure a safe and clean environment...LOVED that! I was then introduced and assigned to work with Dr. Amber as my Physical Therapist and her assistants. WOW...they were so kind, knowledgable and Dr. Amber really helped me understand the therapy she was providing and the assistants helped me with the exercises so I could continue my therapy at home. Everyone is there for you and I felt the care and concern. So to everyone "Thank You!""

My 87-year-old mother sustained a femur fracture but has made a full recovery and is now mobile without the assistance of a cane or walker! Two months ago, I underwent hip replacement surgery, and I chose Gaspar as my rehabilitation provider due to their excellent reputation. From the moment I arrived, the experience was commendable, starting at the front desk with Jessica. She consistently greets everyone with a warm smile and is exceptionally organized, creating a welcoming atmosphere each time I visit. My physical therapy sessions have been managed by Juna, who has been exceptional. The pre-surgery program she designed was incredibly effective, preparing me to be in optimal condition for the procedure. Her post-surgery rehabilitation plan has also been remarkable, enabling me to achieve significant progress each week, resulting in my current state of complete recovery. I would also like to acknowledge the support provided by the team of technicians working with Juna—Caleb, Mateo, Matt, and Taylor—who effectively guide patients through their exercises. I appreciate their focus on maintaining proper form while ensuring the process remains enjoyable. As patients, it is vital for us to concentrate on our recovery, and this team excels in facilitating that focus. Additionally, this facility stands out for its specialized capabilities in rehabilitating athletes, making it an excellent choice for rehabilitation and recovery."

"My experience both times going here have been incredible. The facility and people are first class and I would recommend them to anybody as I already have. These guys do it right!"

"Junna is so very talented, and professional. I've had neck pain for 10 years from a car accident, and uncomfortable/stiff range of motion. After 1st session, I could feel improvement. She knows the best exercises that aren't miserable to do. The entire staff is caring, and makes sure your satisfied with the treatment."

I would not hesitate to recommend them to others."

"Brett is terrific. She is caring and smart. She constantly re-evaluates what I need and adjusts the exercises accordingly. I also appreciate that she listens to me and helps keep me motivated. I feel like I am getting excellent care."

"JENNIFER & HER ASSOCIATES ARE GREAT, TALK, LISTEN, ACT, FINISH WITH MY ISSUES, AND EXERCISE WILL HELP LONG TERM. ALSO, HEATING PAD IS AAA PLUS. FRIENDLY, KIND, HELPFUL, WILLING TO SERVE. SORRY, P.S. JENNIFER & YOUR ASSOCIATES DESERVE MORE THAN A 5 ****** JOSEPH"

"I have been to various physical therapy practices throughout the years, with average to below average staff and results. Gaspar is completely different. They care about your injury and honestly stay with you for a better quality of life. I highly recommend Gaspar Physical Therapy."

"YES, I will keep coming back! The thoroughness of the evaluation to the participation of the assistants is sooo appreciated!!! Philip knows how to hone in on medical conditions and gets you going on a treatment plan. The hands on therapists are extremely helpful and work with you, taking in your feedback and modifying your treatment plan in a helpful way. Rather than talking amongst themselves during your exercise program (which I have experienced at other facilities) the assistants stand by you to make sure you are properly executing your exercises. The receptionists are extremely helpful and personable with a heavy workload and do their utmost best to help you. Yes, I feel they have earned a 5 star rating!"

"Juna and the crew are amazing! Very happy with the care I’ve received at Gaspar!"

"I started my journey with Gaspar DPT almost 9 years ago due to an ankle injury. It took some time, hard work and patience and what helped the most was the therapist that I was asigned at that time . It was Philip Demoss and he is still today after several tendonitis, one hip replacement, knee and neck problems the person that I trust to get well again every time. I recommended him to my friends and everybody cannot be more pleased. Also the whole team and aids are very good and empathetic and will try their best to make you feel confortable. When you are in pain there is nothing more important that a caring team and that is what I feel every time I have to go."

"I have been treated at both the Encinitas and Bressi Ranch branches. My most recent treatments have been at Bressi Ranch, under Dr. Ivan Vicario's care. I have been very pleased with the care, respect and effectively progressive approach. The PTAs have also been very helpful. Dr. Paul Gaspar (another excellent PT who I usually see) referred me to Dr. Ivan, who is excellent with complex cases like me. Great service and care! "

"Very nice people..Phil and Chris are great..along with everyone there!!"

"Such a warm, welcoming environment for healing. Thank you Dr Allie ❤️"

I highly recommend the Carlsbad Coastal Gaspar facility and Jen in particular, as well as the support staff. Thank you!"

"I am a current client at the Coastal Carlsbad location of Gaspar DPT. My experience here has been exceptional! The administrative team , therapists and all support staff are kind , patient knowledgeable and compassionate. My own therapist , Philip , is the finest DPT that I have ever met.

"The knowledge, expertise, and professional care of the Coastal Carlsbad team is exceptional!"

"This place is the best for rehab after surgery or just getting a tune-up when things aren't working right. I have been a client of Philip DeMoss for over 8 years. He has treated me after hip replacements, torn rotator cuffs, and abdominal surgery, as well as various sprains, aches and pains. All the therapists at Gaspar are highly trained and very professional in their treatment approach. The at-home exercises that they have taught me provide the basis for an exercise routine that I can continue to use even after my sessions in the clinic are over. "

"Ivan at Gaspar Bressi Ranch has helped me explore the source of my pain and used multiple methods to ease it. It’s been more effective than many other treatments I’ve tried. The whole staff has been very supportive."

"I have been seeing a PT at Gaspar named Valentine Ngo. I have had migraine headaches for 17 years /after a spinal fusion. I have had numerous procedures done on my neck. Nothing has worked. Valentine has massaged once a week and had me do neck exercises twice a day at home. My headaches are getting further apart. I am able to feel better just by doing the exercises now. I am so thankful since I have tried so many other remidies."

"I've had great experiences at this Gaspar location over the last year and a half. I've had several different shoulder issues from a lifetime of competitive swimming, and Philip DeMoss has helped me quickly recover from these issues on several occasions. He has taken a whole body approach and looked at how weaknesses or compensation patterns throughout my body have contributed to my shoulder injuries."

"Gaspar is akin to Emerald City from The Wizard of Oz. People go there to get put back together and patched up. I went there to rehab a broken back and fix my shoulders. Briana worked magic, helping me to regain muscle tone, increase flexibility, and reduce pain. All the therapist are very skilled, the trainers are very attentive, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable."

"Ivan Vicario is the best physical therapist I have ever worked with. He listens to what I'm saying and feeling and explains exactly what we are doing and why this exercise will help. I feel like knowing why you are doing these exercises helps to motivate me to keep doing them. His office is full of friendly and helpful staff. Keep up the great work!!"

"The team at Gaspar has been patient, kind, considerate and most of all highly qualified. Valentino is very knowledgeable and helped me understand the process, as well as guiding me in how to continue my therapy at home. I know I am not an easy patient, but she knew just how to help me through my very first physical therapy session. I am grateful and believe I will recover from my injuries with her professional help."

Val then tailored my sessions to specifically target those areas. She is extremely knowledgeable and made each session fun and enjoyable."

"My experience at Gaspar was excellent!!! I looked forward to every visit. The staff are knowledgeable and encouraging. They are dedicated to creating a program suited for your particular physical rehabilitation and building your confidence as you progress. I went there after shoulder surgery with the goal to regain my strength and mobility so I could get back to swimming and other daily exercises. With Val, Dar and their assistants help, after 4 months I'm back in the pool swimming laps and getting stronger everyday. Doing the exercises that are recommended to do at home is also a key factor to recovery! Thank you Gaspar!!!!"

"I worked with Val and Dar at the Carlsbad site for strengthening muscles supporting the hip structure. They were both professional and compassionate. I especially appreciate the dialogue explaining why they were giving me certain exercises. I had significant improvement and would certainly choose to work with them again should the need arise."

"It is a pleasure to recommend Gaspar. The team of physical therapistsn are highly competent, knowledgeable and compassionate in dealing with post-surgical recovery.. I have no reservations in strongly recommending them."

"Gaspar is worthy of all these rave reviews. There are a million PT offices to choose from in North County, but you won’t find anyone better than Briana at the Carlsbad location. She’s attentive, creative, personable, and brilliant. Come as you are: in pain, walkin funny, or just a little out of sorts. She’ll work you out."

"Briana is one of the best therapists I’ve had in the past 5 years. Her experience, her bedside manner, mobilization techniques are very thorough. If you’re dealing with any athletic injury I highly recommend her."

"I had the unique pleasure of working with Dr Valentine Ngo on an achilles tendon issue. She and her team were just incredible. The teams attention to detail, and her knowledge of how to treat the injury provided me with an amazing result. If you have an opportunity to work with her and the team at the Carlsbad Coastal location do so. If I have another injury, it will be the first place I will try and get in. Thank you to the entire team...."

"I looooove gaspar therapy they are great!!!"

"Outstanding care from Val and the PTA team. Not a cookie cutter, one size fits all treatment, common to a bunch of other places. Had both pre-op and post-op PT. Getting back to surfing with no pain and more strength and flexibility than I've had in years. Would recommend Val and the team to everyone."

"Val and her team was amazing. They are very professional, also with warm heart. I had great experience with them. Thanks Val , Rainer and Victoria."

"Outstanding therapists and facility. Super thorough assessment, Phillip is very knowledgeable and an expert on backs, hips. Dar was super motivating and knowledgeable. I can’t say enough great things about these two and the whole place. A positive place to be and get well. Thanks guys!"

"Val has been great to work with. She listens and cares for the well being of her patients. Her attention to each concern makes her stand out from the rest of the therapists I’ve seen in other offices and could not be any happier. The support staff has also been wonderful and goes the extra mile to follow up on insurance questions, billing, appointments and simply put… caring and friendly from the moment you enter their facility. A big thanks to each of you."

"The treatment I have received is top notch! Major kudos to Valentine (Val). She is very thorough in educating one about what procedures she is going to perform. She is currently treating me for a partial tear of my bicep and inner elbow tendon and I am making great progress. Thanks for all you do Val!"

"The staff are knowledgeable, professional and dedicated to helping you heal to your highest abilities. Big shoutout to Val! She’s amazing!! This staff team truly works as a team. You’re always monitored by the PT staff. For me, it made a huge difference that they genuinely care, they listen about your concerns and offer encouragement each session,"

"Goals were explained; all questions answered. Therapy and results are very good …( I still have a couple months of work on my own). Trust the process. Instruction and clarification of exact positions for exercises given. I traveled a lot during therapy period and was able to stay in touch with my therapist as well as was given exercises to do during that time. Shout out to Dr. Val for being excellent and patient and to Ranier and Tory for insuring perfection in my execution of exercises."

"If you are looking for a new physical therapist then you must ask to see Val! She listens to your needs comes up with a plan and puts you to work. The pt assistants are amazing and helpful. I always feel better when I leave and the progress so far has exceeded my expectations!"

"Great PT staff. Truly helped to bring me back to a positive position for my knee. I would recommend this team and the facility."

"Go here for PT. Ryan and team are supportive and fun but get the job done. Good vibes, good music and hard work await you. Go for it."

"I am having cardio-rehab at the Carlsbad-Metropolitan location and Sarah is doing a terrific job. I have improved my stamina greatly! And, I also see Jody for hand therapy at the Carlsbad-Encinas office. My problem has lessened."

"My mother can not stop raving about this facility and how great the aide Gabriel was, thank you so much for helping her!"

"I had pain in my lower thumb joints that was inhibiting activities like handshakes, clipping fingernails, closing Ziplock bags, etc. Julie Turner worked with me on specific issues, gave me effective home exercises, and ended up greatly helping to get me back to full effectiveness. She's super!"

"Great therapists and center. Kristi is so knowledgable and was also super helpful and willing to go out of her way to help, even emailing when I wasn't there."

"I initially went to Gaspar because of a shoulder injury. Jen and Devin have contributed greatly to my progress and overall improvement. I would recommend anyone to this clinic as they truly put the patient's needs first. "

"I loved my treatment at Gaspar in Carlsbad, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone with a similar injury. My doctor had recommended Julie, an occupational therapist, at Gaspar in Carlsbad. I had fractured my finger pretty severely and had very limited range of motion. After seeing Julie for several weeks, she was able to help me get to the point where my range of motion was just about fully restored. Julie was very patient during our appointments. She also did a great job of explaining exercises/reasons for the exercises to help me grasp the concepts a little better. She is super fun and engaging, and that helped me to look forward to my appointments. She came with a high recommendation from my doctor, and I would echo that recommendation 100%. The office staff was also very friendly and easy to work with. There were multiple instances where they went above and beyond to try and work with my schedule, and I really appreciated that. Thank you, Gaspar!!"

"As a retired firefighter, Gaspar (Coastal Carlsbad) is my “go-to” for all my injuries. The entire staff are knowledgeable, professional, friendly. Specifically, Jen and Kate keep me in the Active lifestyle I was hoping to experience in retirement. (surfing, hiking, etc). Both of these ladies are amazing at making high end kinesiology very practical and doable. Further, they are both gifted at seeing patients as a person, not a number, or just an appointment. They know when to push, when to bring it down a notch, and how to impart hope. There are many PT facilities much closer to my house, however Gaspar coastal is worth the drive. Thanks for getting me back in the water! -Derek"

"I couldn’t recommend more highly. I was told: you must see Julie as the hand arm expert...and truly she has been a partner and champion in my recovery. Julie’s Gaspar OT team is knowledgeable and supportive. Thank you Julie for creating a positive and healing environment in your room and extending out in the PT space for the bands etc! Julie has such unique expertise and creates customize plans for what each person needs. She is responsive and proactive, with an excellent balance of knowing when to push ahead and knowing when to rest. I'm grateful for her help and the entire team ... Megan, Marissa, Ranier, Tanya, Kate and all, thank you for your help!"

"Ryan and Kate were amazing. I came in after rotator cuff surgery with a severely frozen shoulder. Ryan worked with me on increasing range of motion. I was there 3 times a week and did the stretching exercises he gave me at home every day. He is so good at what he does!! After 2 months I also started working with Kate, who helped me with breathing techniques to help get through the intense pain of releasing the frozen shoulder during PT. She also did massage to release the knots I couldn’t reach. This helped me to achieve better range of motion during PT. The encouragement she provided was such a valuable positive reinforcement to the overall healing process. Sometimes you feel like you’ll never get rid of the chronic pain and it helps to be mentally cheered on! Ryan as well let me know when I was improving and took regular measurements of my progress. All the staff working there that assist Ryan and Kate are very nice and knowledgeable. They helped me with onsite exercise execution. Kevin and Reiner worked with me the most and both were great!! The atmosphere is positive as well. I loved Aloha Friday 😀. The staff at the front desk are helpful and really nice also. So, a big thank you again to Ryan, Kate and all the staff at Gaspar Coastal Carlsbad. I’m so Grateful!! Brenda"

"If you want to get back to 100% you come to Gaspars Sports Center. The Physical therapists here are incredibly knowledgeable and incredibly kind. Having a multi ligament knee tear- I thought id never have full functionality again but Ryan Paik was incredible and has gotten me back to ski shape! I can not stress this enough come put in the work at PT and they will be here every step of the way for you."

"I went here after experiencing lower back pain and posture issues. After an evaluation and several sessions I’m seeing considerable improvement. Kate Clements is a fantastic physical therapist, and has amazing knowledge of how I needed to work towards improvement. Overall great experience."

"I couldn’t recommend more highly. The OT team at Avenida Encinas is knowledgeable and supportive. Thank you Julie for creating a positive and healing environment in your room and extending out in the PT space for the bands etc! Julie has such unique expertise and creates customize plans for what each client needs. She is responsive and proactive, with an excellent balance of knowing when to push ahead and knowing when to rest. I'm grateful for her help and the entire team ... Megan, Marissa, Ranier, Tanya, Kate and all, thank you for your help!"

"Came in with severe neck issues. Kristi Lupinetti was a tremendous help...very professional and knowledgeable. With her guidance I can now maintain ongoing therapy on my own."

"Gaspar PT Bressi Ranch is the location I have been undergoing treatment in. My PT is Brian Stone PT DPT. I have had a great deal of PT in my lifetime, so I am well-versed on what the scale of a good to poor PT should be. Brian Stone, hands down, is the BEST PT I have ever met or worked with! The entire package is there with him; the clinical analysis, the caring bedside manner, the amazing education, the prescription, and he is a consummate professional! I cannot stress enough how underrated some of these components are! They are critical to the patient, and it is a very rare experience, indeed, to experience all of them in one PT!"

"The location is convenient. They have a professional, friendly and engaged staff. My therapist evaluated my physical issues and concerns. She then developed a flexible plan to achieve physical strength, flexibility and pain reduction. An experienced therapist is with me, coaching and encouraging me during the entire session. I found this personal interaction to be very helpful, assuring the exercise is done correctly and maximizing its benefit. I’m not there yet, but after only 3 sessions, I’m experiencing improvement in balance and strength ... this is faster than I’d hoped. And for that, I’m a grateful & happy camper."

"I randomly chose Gaspar PT (Carlsbad location) from a list of PT clinics my surgeon gave me after finishing L4-L5 disc surgery. The reviews were good, but so were the reviews for many other PT locations, so I just chose one close to home. When I came in for my first assessment, I was in pretty bad shape, both physically and psychologically...very concerned that I wouldn't recover based on warnings from my surgeon. Kristi Lupinetti (Dr of PT) did a very thorough assessment of my mobility and strength issues caused by my injury and the resulting nerve damage. After just a few weeks of focused work, the recovery was faster and more dramatic than I expected. I was so happy with the results that I brought my daughter in for some recently diagnosed back issues. Right now, my daughter and I are going in together so Kristi can get her on the right track while I work with Kate Clements (PT). Kate is AWESOME as well. What I love about both Kristi and Kate is how they thoroughly explain the mechanics of the exercises and proper form to achieve maximum benefit. The assistants have been great also, always there to coach me on form, etc. Great staff, great facility, great results. Can't say enough about Kristi and Kate. I'm a huge fan and big believer in the benefits of PT."

"I just completed my 4th physical therapy session in the last 3 years (right shoulder, right knee, left achilles, amd recent partial left knee replacement) and the outcomes were all very good. The Front Office Staff and assistants were always courteous and responsive. This facility always has a number of local college interns and they were all well trained. Thanks to Ryan Paik, PT, DPT, OCS and Kate Clements, PTA, RYT 200 for their attention to my surgeons directions, my various personal needs and for delivering the best recovery outcomes possible for me. I highly recommended this facility for Physical Therapy sessions!"

"Kate has helped me so much. I have gotten off the pain meds and gained so much mobility. Kate has taught me some yoga and mind and body techniques that help in the healing process. I would recommend going to Kate for all your healing of mind body and soul. I could not have done it without all of Kate’s help. Thank you Kate for caring about your patients."

"Five stars!"

"Have had a great experience with therapy. Great staff. Results have been good within only three weeks."

"Five Stars!"

"I have seen Spencer over the years for various ailments. This last one (cervical post dissections and fusions) by far needed the most work. I have been exceptionally pleased with the care I have received, the knowledge of Spencer especially, but also, the entire staff and their professionalism. I recommend Gaspar and Spencer to my friends. Thanks for all the great help!"

"Five stars!"

"Thank you all. LOVED!!!!"

"I have loved my time here and will recommend you all."

"GREAT experience with Ryan and the whole Gaspar team. They are amazing at what they do and I wouldn't go anywhere else for physical therapy!"

"It was recommended to me that I do a series of PT visits to see if I could improve leg strength and mitigate the pain I have been experiencing in and around my right hip over the past few years. I made contact with DPT and was set to work with Dr Ryan Paik. To say I am satisfied would be an understatement. Ryan has worked diligently in helping better diagnose and treat my specific issue/s and further, I am for the first time in a long time, mobile and nearly pain free. He is focused, engaging and over the top helpful/encouraging. I would highly recommend him to anyone with injuries or needs!"

"Joy was my therapist and from start to finish everything was great. My pain is gone and I would highly recommend DPT to everyone."

"Thank you for the personal care to my shoulder issues, from the first evaluation through the past three months. Ryan Paik provided excellent professional treatment including work toward increased strength, flexibility and appropriate exercises for maintaining use of the shoulder and arm. Chris and Ranier were dedicated to correct practice and were professional with encouragement and congeniality. Angela Matthews is super-conscientious in scheduling and responding to needs in communication! Thanks Team!"

"Everyone I worked with here has been both professional and personable. They made the exercises fun, so time seemed to fly by, and I received a better workout each and every time; great job guys. "Pay Bump," for Ryan, Rainer, Chris, and David( sorry Robert, you're still riding the pine ;)"

"I had a great experience overall! My PT's, Ryan and Erika, were awesome."

"I cannot thank Ryan Paik and his team enough for all their help in my recovery from a radial head fracture. I received top-notch customer service from day one and the level of skill and professionalism and encouragement made a tremendous impact on my recovery.Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy rocks!! It was a very positive experience!"

"After having hand/wrist pain on and off throughout high school, my daughter went to see Robert before leaving for college. She worked with the Gaspar team for a month, strengthening the muscles in her hands and arms. They gave her additional exercises to do at home, which has helped her remain pain-free since then. I would definitely recommend Gaspar PT to family and friends!"

"I have been an age-group triathlete for 10 years. My doctor referred me to GasparDPT (Carlsbad) as a potential remedy after 18 months of chronic knee pain. I was skeptical, but figured I would "check the box" (phys. therapy) then opt for a surgical solution. After five weeks (10 appts.) of PT, my knee is back to 100%. I am pleasantly amazed. Dr. Snow and the GasparDPT staff are true wizards!"

"Erika and all the staff have been wonderful with my daughters physical therapy. They monitor her therapy as well as make her feel comfortable. Erika keeps me informed of her progress. We love everyone's attitude here! I recommend this facility to those I know who are looking for great physical therapy"

"Absolutely fantastic!! Reaching knowledge put to unbelievable use!!!"

"The entire staff is very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I am most happy with the support, confidence and success of my treatment. Thank you very much!"

"I had the most amazing experience at Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy. Dr Phillip De Mass, DPT was kind, patient, and in each appointment he and the entire staff gave me so much attention I would deeply recommend this physical therapists office to everyone. I'm healed and ready to do all things I used to."

"Great Job! Awesome staff and very effective workouts. Very helpful!"

"Julie is a great therapist. She helped me with my hand and my handwriting. Thank you, Julie."

"Great PT facility! Staff is wonderful. PT's are every experienced and friendly. This PT has everything you need for any injury. I fixed my elbow and shoulder at Mammoth and the staff has me well on my way to being 100%! This is the place to go! PS. Erika and Ryan rock!"

"I had 4 sessions with Ryan. His evaluation treatment and professional courtesy and kindness was exemplary, I feel so much better and would return to Ryan if additional sessions were needed."

"Excellent care, attention, and service provided by Jen and P.T. Assistants (Rainer, Chris, Yusef). Continuity of care is outstanding with patient healing an optimum priority in all respects."

"An additional star "Off the chart"! Over the past 15 months, I've been to Scripps, Tri-City, and non-Gaspar. Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy is by far the best. Ryan and his crew are without fear; great attitude, great facility, hands-on treatment. They know exactly what to do when treating both my shoulders. After three weeks I feel like it's working. Time will tell but it's all good. I can tell they care and really want the treatment to work. The facility is nice, large and professional. From now on I know where to go for Physical therapy. My wife Mariann had an excellent experience as... better. It's nice to know Gaspar is there. I will refer all my friends as well!"

"The team at DPT worked with me tirelessly to not only give my therapy direction, but also correct my treatment by actively involving me in my care. PT is a team effort and the guys here make sure to get you headed in the right direction for a healthy life free of pain and restriction."

"Love Gaspar and all the employees! They got me back to playing soccer after my ankle, and now they're helping me with my quad! Constantly challenging me, and I'm very pleased with my results."

"Jenn with the assistance of Kris, and Yusef, were outstanding, knowledgeable, focused, supportive, and fun. I would recommend to any and all! Thank you!"

"I was referred to Ryan Paik by my son and daughter-in-law who were patients of Ryan's. Ryan is professional, personable and most important, effective. It is clear to me that Ryan is not advertising a "one-size-fits-all" course of treatment but rather, is tailoring my therapy to address my specific needs."

"Your staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The therapy improved my problem shoulder so that I no longer have pain and my arm is stronger. The patient concern and care was very very good. Thanks for the great care! Ryan deserves a special pat on the back."

"I have been recovering spinal fusion in PT. We moved so I had to change PT to one in my new network. The difference is amazing. In only 4 visits I began to feel better. I wonder now if I had gone to Gaspar's Ryan, before the surgery, maybe I wouldn't needed it. A big thank you to Ryan and Chris and everyone at Gaspar for helping me."

"A great place and the experience of your therapists is awesome...I would not hesitate to recommend DPT Gaspar to anyone... Thank you!"

"Everybody has collaborated without ego to get me back on my feet!"

"Everyone was great and pushed me to get stronger every week. I achieved way better results than expected!"

"This is my second experience with Gaspar. Both were for hip replacement. The quality of my care and personal attention given by your employees has always been professional. My physical therapist was very knowledgable and attentive to my questions and progress. She is the best. Everyone worked in a team effort with my care."

"I came in with a broken shoulder. The shoulder is 100% better now, and I'm very happy with it. I will strongly recommend any of my friends or family to used Gaspar in the future."

"Excellent and complete information with respect to future activities."

"Extremely focused and hands on staff who will work as hard as you want to work. They did a great job getting me back in the groove after an ACL repair."

"I've been both a patient and a volunteer at Gaspar PT in Carlsbad and it has been a great experience. Ryan, the aids, and the other staff are so personable and nice and they really do help you return to 100% health!"

"I have been going to Gaspar Physical Therapy intermittently the past 6 months. I went prior to surgery and now after surgery on my hip. Ryan and all of the other staff are amazing! Ryan is very knowledgeable, and has helped me tremendously in regaining the strength I need."

"After fracturing my heel and undergoing surgery to repair it my doctor referred me to physical therapy. I was so happy to see that Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy was still on the list of approved providers for my health insurance. From the moment they called me to make my first appointment I knew I had made the right choice again. Every employee at the Sports Performance Center has been friendly, courteous, and professional. Dr. Ryan Palk is a capable and knowledgeable individual who also has a compassionate and caring manner that immediately set me at ease. I am very confident in the treatment I am receiving and will definitely continue my care there."

"Gaspar in Carlsbad is definitely one of the best PT offices I have ever been to. I am no stranger to physical therapy after a horse back riding accident years ago and several other accidents throughout the years. I have personally gone to Ryan Paik for my neck and lower back off and on the past 2 years and he has been so helpful in getting me to feel better when no one else could get those results. When you go, ask for him and he will get you back to functioning properly again."

"I came to Gaspar and worship my wonderful therapists Ryan and Nicole, I used to be in complete and total agony. I have been to other PT practices and this place is above and beyond ANY PT professionals you will EVER encounter. I missed my gym more than life itself and RYAN and NICOLE have made it possible for me to return to my place of happiness, my gym. No matter what level of pain you are in, DO NOT waste another moment!! Come see Ryan and his AMAZING staff of kind, compassionate and knowledgable professionals! You will wonder how you ever made it without them. Holly H"

"I am more than satisfied with the treatment I received at Gaspar Physical Therapy! Dr. Paik (or as I call him "Magic Hands"), is extremely knowledgable in the areas of anatomy, kinesiology, and sports medicine. The facility is clean and the staff is professional! Thank you so much for all your help!"

"My husband, Phil, was referred to Ryan Paik by my son and daughter-in-law who were patients of Ryan's. Ryan is professional, personable and most important, effective. It is clear that Ryan is not implementing a "one-size-fits-all" course of treatment but rather, is tailoring Phil's therapy to address his specific needs."

"Came here after tearing my ACL for both pre-op and post-op. Everyone here is so friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. Definitely makes a painful situation much more enjoyable! Thanks to all of you for your help!"

"The staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating - I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here! My hip was painful and it got better with their wonderful care and exercises. Ryan was my therapist and helped with theraputic massage - a shout out to Kris and Ranier my buddies that exercised with me - even though it was painful for them!"

"The entire staff at SPC is fantastic! I've been a patient here numerous times and each time I come out stronger and ready to go. Thanks for all that you do for your patients! You guys are the best!"

"I came to see Ryan Paik and the Gaspar team following a tough back surgery, knowing I was in pretty rough shape and would have a long recovery ahead of me. Ryan listens to my concerns, always answers my questions with a smile, understands my goals, and reevaluates and adjusts his treatment plan as my goals and abilities change. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Ryan, the staff and the facility are all top notch. "

"I have been to several physical therapy facilities, and by far this has been the best. Prior to Gaspar, I was never enthusiastic about going to physical therapy and now I'm 100% more motivated to go because of the wonderful staff."

"Great team of doctors and specialists! They were great to work and very friendly. Dr. Ryan continually adjusted my treatment plan to respond to my condition as it improved. "

"Entire staff friendly and professional. Making excellent progress. "

"Gaspar is amazing. I worked with Ryan for my shoulder problem and he made the pain go away. I continued with Jen on another problem and so far she's been wonderful. The staff here is so friendly I would highly recommend it!"

"Erika and staff are terrific and have helped me tremendously for a disc problem. I highly recommend them. "

"The staff here is fantastic. They are energetic and focused on making rehab a success. I would highly recommend SPC... My sincere thank you to Erica, Kris, Usef, Robby, Ranier, and the whole crew."

"I really like the staff and the therapist are terrific! I would recommend Gaspar for anyone who is in need of Physical Therapy or body part strengthening. I have had two shoulder surgeries and have used Gaspar for both recoveries. They definitely are a go to."

"Everyone here is so awesome and helpful. The team is incredibly thorough and diligent. They are not only kind and friendly but knowledgable. I drive the extra distance twice a week just to make sure I get to work with all of these wonderful people. If you ever find yourself needing physical therapy, be sure to come and meet these truly amazing people! Thank you so much everyone!"

"Gaspar is the only place I would go to for physical therapy. Everyone that works here is so nice and accommodating. My experience here has been nothing but great. All the therapists are very knowledgeable and caring, and the aides that show you the exercises are very patient. The atmosphere is fun but professional. I've been seeing Erika as my therapist and she has been amazing to work with. Everytime I see her she will ask me how my injury has been doing and she genuinely wants to help me get better. I have worked with Robert also and he was awesome to work with. He was able to feel what was wrong and gave me tips on what to do at home along with my exercises. The aides are great and do a great job showing how to do the exercises. Kris, Yusef, Ranier and Robby are all fun to work with and know what they are doing when it comes to the exercises. They make sure I am using proper form and explain what parts of my body each exercise is meant to strengthen. I highly recommend this location. "

"I have used DPT on Avenida Encinas 2 years ago for an initial knee injury and then again recently for a 3 month period to prepare for a yosemite half dome hike. The staff there are AMAZING! Very professional and really know their stuff. Both Ryan and Erika helped me identify the problem and develop a successful strategy to build strength and reduce pain. I went from having pain going down one flight of stairs to being able to hike 16 miles up and down half dome! THANK YOU RYAN AND ERIKA!"

"I have been an age-group triathlete for 10 years. My doctor referred me to GasparDPT (Carlsbad) as a potential remedy after 18 months of chronic knee pain. I was skeptical, but figured I would "check the box" (phys. therapy) then opt for a surgical solution. After five weeks (10 appts.) of PT, my knee is back to 100%. I am pleasantly amazed. Dr. Snow and the GasparDPT staff are true wizards!"

She worked with the Gaspar team for a month, strengthening the muscles in her hands and arms. They gave her additional exercises to do at home, which has helped her remain pain-free since then. I definitely recommend Gaspar PT to family and friends!"

"This is a review for Robert - I have sent a number of my employees to him (4 to be exact) and each of them have responded very well to his care. He took care of a neck problem, knee instability, shoulder subluxation, and non-specific back pain. Thanks to Dr. Robert and the group in the Carlsbad physical therapy office. I'd definitely recommend them...kept my employees happy and they didn't miss work."
