Dr. Nira Salant, DPT

Frantic demeanor, she speaks way too fast, interrupts, and is a poor listener. She also blatantly hustles you through the appointment making it clear that you are just another warm body passing through. A cookie cutter checking-each-box approach. The receptionist wasn't much better.

So validating. So patient. Seemed to genuinely care about me as a person.

Nira is hands-down the best Physical Therapist I have ever seen and I have seen many! Nira listens carefully and provides expert assessment based on her years of experience. She helped me recover and create a plan moving forward to keep me as pain-free as possible. Great for athletes looking for top/improved performance. She uses innovative techniques to help solve difficult issues and is always positive and uplifting. I could not have asked for a better experience. 100% recommendation!

Nira is the best! When my other doctors essentially told me to go home and take some aspirin every day for the rest of my life and just hope for the best, Nira worked to find exercises that relieve the pain and help with my mobility. She listens to what I have to say and works with me until we find things that work. I just felt like when all the other doctors just shrugged and said there was nothing to be done, Nira worked with me to develop a more long-term that is actually working.

I was diagnosed with bursitis. She said "we see this in our elderly patients." I'm 60, not yet eligible for Social Security or Medicare. During the examination, she kept stepping out of the room to interract with other patients. I read the chart on the wall while she was engaging with the others. She returned her attention to me, and asked me if my knees had always touched, calling it "knock kneed" instead of describing the condition Genu valgum. Ok advice, but POOR people skills. Don't need it.
