Charles Starr is a professionally superb physical therapist. He listens well to his clients and works with them to achieve their goals for improved health, instead of dictating an agenda that he expects them to adhere to. My two primary goals were to decrease my arthritis neck stiffness/pain and to improve my balance. Both goals were reached, with an unexpected bonus occurring of a much lower blood sugar level due to my new daily exercise routines. Because of my increased neck flexibility I feel much safer backing up my car in parking lots and changing lanes while driving. My balance is so much better, I now feel capable of walking on uneven surfaces, without having to continuously watch the ground. As a result of having a much more confident stride, I am able to walk as fast as other people I go places with, instead of just shuffling along slowly. In my opinion Charles Starr is a 5 Starr Physical Therapist.
My wife and I have known Dr Starr DPT since 2017 when he began treating my wife for her chronic back problems. His positive impact on her quality of life has been remarkable over the last 4 years. He has helped slow the progression of her intractable spine conditions by his continuing creative approaches over these years. The treatment strategies have evolved as her chronic issues have unpredictably / dynamically changed. In recent years, her treatment has changed numerous times from core strengthening to myofascial release techniques to IFC electro stimulations to combinations depending on how she feels on any given day during her twice weekly appointments. All these efforts over time have help her maintain a quality of life to as good as possible. For me, over this last year, on three separate segments of time, Dr Starr corrected nagging back and shoulder issues that had reduced my quality of life to a point that self-treatment was not working. Through concentrated / thorough examinations, he precisely diagnosed and each issue, misalignment, low core strength and range of motion problems. His treatments were primarily myofascial release techniques, active muscle energy treatments to correct misalignments (shoulder, thoracic and lumbar), and core strengthening exercises (homework). These examples of physical therapy successes have proven me a believer in his expertise so much that I have recommended his services to my friends. Dr Starr is truly a seasoned veteran in his approach to simple and especially complex problems. He is tireless in his determination to improve and/or correct chronic issues makes him truly a one of a kind. Each appointment is an hour of undivided attention, no doubling up with another patient, clearly and advantage to completing a treatment plan successfully. Anyone with chronic physical pain that may or may not need surgical care should make an appoint with Dr Starr. His repertoire of skills will improve ones quality of life if at all possible. I am a living example who had physical issues that targeted PT treatments by Dr Starr successfully corrected.
