I feel super lucky to have worked with Gabriella Gavazzi at Spear in Columbus Circle. She is an extremely proficient therapist who healed my stubborn shoulder tendonitis that had lasted 18 months. After working with her, I could return to all my favorite hobbies, get through the day, complete strenuous chores, and sleep pain free.
Gabriella is fun to work with - with a great sense of humor and a cool background in the arts (in addition to her Doctor of Physical Therapy from Columbia University).

Nisha is my PT is at Equinox Columbus Circle. Very nice, attentive, organized, writes everything down, there are QR code that shows you videos of the exercises. She gave me flexibility exercises and later I’ll get strength training. She asks for feedback and monitors my progress carefully, also writes reports on my progress. She’s professional but also cheerful and supportive. I’m amazed at how skillfully she manages several patients simultaneously. The reception staff is also kind and welcoming. I’m not handy at using tablets to check in, Crystal was so kind and helpful to me. Spear’s employees are first rate.
Nisha absolutely rescued my left hand. I developed De Quervain's tenosynovitis from constantly lifting and carrying my baby, and it had gotten to the point where everyday things were painful. She knew exactly what was going on right away and got me back to normal faster than I expected.
She is incredibly skillful and efficient — no wasted appointments, no vague advice, just treatment that actually worked. On top of that she's a genuinely lovely person, and I always left feeling better than when I walked in.
If you're a new parent dealing with wrist or thumb pain, go see Nisha. I'm so grateful I did.
