What Our Patients Say
Discover why patients rate us as the best physical therapy clinic in Astoria
"As a physical therapist myself, I have nothing but amazing things to say about Dr. Nick and Dr. Antonio. They are both extremely knowledgeable. I walk out from each session enlightened and feeling a major difference in my aches/pains.”
"Dr. Torres was very professional and thorough in his initial assessment. I think this is what really distinguishes him from other PTs. He really addresses the root of the problem. He won’t give you a cookie cutter program that can be found online."
"Dr. Torres is the most AMAZING doctor I have ever been to. I have been suffering from chronic back and neck pain for over a decade. In one session, Dr. Torres not only knew exactly what my body was exhibiting and how to treat it, but he also compassionately walked me through everything so I understood it clearly and was SO encouraging and inspiring throughout the session."
"Dr. Nick does incredible work. He looks at your body holistically to get at the root cause of issues instead of treating short term symptoms. He’s also built out a business that supports you to full recovery.”
"I have been dealing with ankle issues for the last few years. I've been seeing Nick over the last 2 years and his work has helped tremendously! We've also been correcting hip and alignment issues. Overall I 100% recommend him to anyone. Goes the extra mile for clients!”
