What Our Patients Say
"I have done the PT rounds in Cedar Grove. Holsman has been the best experience. Harold and Lester are intuitive. In my past experience my therapist added more weight without evaluation and I had so much pain. I used to come home and ice and or heat. Now I feel stronger after my sessions. For me, therapy has never been like this. I strongly recommend."
"My sons have autism and was struggling with motor skills. The pediatric team at Fair Lawn Children's Therapy Center has been amazing. They make therapy fun, and we've seen incredible progress in just three months."
"Absolutely a terrific experience at Holsman PT. Brandon my CERTIFIED HAND THERAPIST, is more then just an Occupational Therapist. Brandon was a pleasure to work with and was able to return more use of my wrist then i ever expected. After my wrist surgery & reconstruction my surgeon strongly recommended a "CHT" certified hand therapist. Brandon a "CHT"was very knowledgeable, experienced and focused all attention on my wrist/hand. i received more and better care during my appointments as well as a strong home follow up program. Brandon was very positive and we worked to meet my goals with a timely plan. The office was very clean and bright. Tina assisted in making sure all my appointments were planned and approved. Tina and Brandon both made the experience friendly and positive with awesome atmosphere and great attitudes. Thank you.."
"After having total knee replacement at the end of January, I researched physical therapists in the Kearny area and decided on Holsman. I was impressed from the first day and can't say enough good things about the entire office. Dr. Fatima and Janet are amazing. They're incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and make you feel completely at ease during every session. Their ability to explain things and provide personalized care is exceptional.
The rest of the staff, especially Stephany and Larry, are equally impressive - friendly, professional, and always helpful. The entire office creates a welcoming environment. Highly recommend Holsman for anyone looking for physical therapy. There is no better place to go."
"The No-Fall Protocol saved my independence. I was terrified of falling again after a fall and a stroke. Now my balance is better than it's been in years, and I feel confident walking anywhere."
"I had been struggling with back stiffness and pain for months. I was unable to lie down more than 3 hours to sleep. Holsman physical therapy knew exactly how to help me. Feliz was absolutely amazing from the very first session. She always explained everything so that I understood. She is very knowledgeable and thorough. Within the first 2 weeks I saw a considerable improvement and am confident the exercises will continue to help me. I am so thankful for Feliz!"
