Testimonials

Why Great Lakes Physical Therapy?  Such a great warm atmosphere.  Therapists are knowledgeable and so friendly. Great results! Have been to GLPT several times – would not use anyone else.

Great Lakes Physical Therapy…if you must be in therapy it’s the place to be. I have experienced a few other PT groups and they don’t compare with GLPT. The entire staff is friendly, helpful and informed. Jeff and Lisa have worked with me and they’re both empathetic, understanding, and knowledgeable regarding my present difficulty. It seems less like treatment and more like visiting with friends. If you want great PT care in a comfortable friendly atmosphere, then GLPT is where you want to go.

I am a medical provider myself and I am very impressed with Great Lakes Therapy. The level of caring, compassion, and clinical expertise is outstanding.

I’m an RN and had a recent shoulder surgery. I will say that this is the best physical therapy I’ve ever experienced. Wonderful, caring, fun people that cheer you on to meet your healing goals. Believe me, you don’t want to miss an appointment.

The best in West Michigan; Love to hurt here!

I feel as though I am part of a close-knit family. I recommend GLPT to everyone.

I can’t believe how much more mobility I have after treatments with Jeff and the rest of the staff at Great Lakes Physical Therapy.

I received physical therapy at Great Lakes Physical Therapy. This was my first time for physical therapy and I didn’t know what to expect. I was there for an unstable SI joint. I started out in so much pain that I could barely sleep from the pain in my hips and lower back. After I completed my therapy, I can actually sleep at night. Chris was my therapist. Everyone there is so friendly and professional. I would recommend them to anyone that needs any kind of therapy.

I’ve been to four Physical Therapy places and Great Lakes is the best I’ve seen yet. They are very thorough and helpful in explaining your treatment plan. Every one of the staff are very friendly and genuinely care about you as their patient. I would definitely recommend going here.

I’ve been to physical therapy for various injuries in the past and I had a pretty negative opinion of the effectiveness of Physical Therapy, I felt it was mostly required by the insurance industry to get you to quit so they would get out of paying for a needed surgery. That was my opinion until recently.  After a shoulder injury, I was sent to Great Lakes by my family doctor. I went along to play the game so eventually I could get a referral to an orthopedic surgeon. My experience with the staff at Great Lakes has completely changed my opinion on Physical Therapy. Everything about this practice has been positive from the way the practice is run to the treatment by the therapists themselves. They are much more attentive and hands on than any other experience I’ve had. I can actually see and feel the benefits I’ve received from their treatment. I would, and have, highly recommended them to family and friends.

I’ve had therapy at other places, surgery, injections, and even a baclofen pump, but I’ve never had relief until going to Great Lakes Physical Therapy. Thank you so much!

In 2008, after breaking my shoulder skiing, I met Jeffery Eaton and his amazing team. I was greatly guided through my severe pain, achieving a full recovery. More recently I have been treated at Great Lakes Physical Therapy for a reoccurring SI joint problem. We worked on various exercises with a variety of equipment. Now I am able to maintain joint health with home exercises. Each therapist and staff member is encouraging and patient. Great Lakes Physical Therapy is a great place for recovery!

I appreciate Great Lakes Physical Therapy because of their caring professional team. Each therapist, assistant, and office member does his/her best to take care of each patient. Exercises are explained and handled with expertise and compassion. Jeff Eaton is one of a few therapists to fit and treat patients with the BalanceWear vest.  Wearing this special vest has enabled me to gain balance and walking ability following a severe stoke. I am very thankful to have worked with all of the therapists at Great Lakes Physical Therapy. Each has added to my successful recovery.

I have been with this physical therapy group off and on for many years (shoulder, knee, etc.). You cannot find a better group of people anywhere. Always smiling, always helpful, and always professional.

At Great Lakes Physical Therapy, I received a dedicated team who gave me hope and a path resulting in the best outcome, which has me functional and independent again. It has been quite an extraordinary, supportive experience over several months with results I didn’t know would even be possible.
