Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy

I am a physician and I understand the time pressure and push to produce so I did not plan to write this review until Scripps Ranch PT had the gall to call me to schedule an appt. My first appt with Suzie was great. The second appt was something else. While I was being given deep tissue masssage by the PT in the common area, he was actually evaluating another patient and while he was giving me instructions on doing neck exercises, he was doing deep tissue massage on another patient. They put me on traction and while I was on it I had dizziness. I called out, yelled and waved my arms until someone came to help and remove the device. My PT was somewhere doing deep tissue on a third patient, totally oblivious to me and no one was there to attend to me. I walked out after a while. No one noticed and no one called me back to apologize for the substandard care I received. If you want individualized care — go somewhere else. This place is a patient mill where number of patients seen is the prime directive.

Everyone here is great! The staff are all welcoming, friendly and exude lots of positive energy. My therapist Todd was nice, kind, supportive, and knowledgeable. I was recovering from spinal injuries due to a car accident, and I was feeling better after only 5 sessions. I would absolutely recommend Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy to anyone recovering from an injury!

I am extremely happy with Physical Therapist Todd Sparks and all of the wonderful staff at Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy. I have been a client for 8 weeks after a major knee surgery (LCL, ACL, meniscus) and am ecstatic with my progress. My range of motion is better in my injured knee than my good knee.
Todd really knows his stuff and asks questions to improve the treatment and challenge me. His confidence is enthusiasm is apparent in the rapport he establishes with all of his clients.(even Dan) You can tell he is passionate and takes pride in his work. I highly recommend Todd Sparks and Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy.

I went to scripps ranch physical therapy because it is close to my work. I came in with right shoulder tendonitis and bursitis, as well as a possible hip impingement. I was greeted nicely by Jancy, who is always smiling when I come for my appointment. Chelsie, Rich, and the other exercise specialists who’s names I can’t remember are always very helpful and friendly when showing me my exercises. Even the intern girl (Tori?) Is very pleasant and helpful. Everyone always carries on conversations and they have great personalities. They are all motivated and happy to help. I started seeing Susie for the first 5 weeks of my therapy, and she is amazing. She’s very knowledgeable and her ability to work out tough, tight areas is very impressive for such a small woman. Susie went on vacation so I started seeing Todd Sparks for the rest of my prescription. He also is very friendly, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. He really gets into trouble areas and works out issues and knots with ease. Either one of these DPT’s are a great choice, and I’m glad I decided to go to this location for my treatment.

Awesome staff! The PT doctors are amazing. Highly recommended! The assistants are top noch! Will return of I had to do PT again!

I have had a great experience at Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy. Todd Sparks was amazing to work with! I had a broken humerus (elbow) and had little movement when I started therapy. I didn’t think it was possible to get my full range of motion back but after working with Todd for the last couple of months I have my full range of motion back and I am feeling better than ever! He is a pleasure to work with and really pushed me to work harder each time I saw him. I also enjoy working with the staff there. Everyone is so outgoing and friendly, it made a hard experience enjoyable! I highly recommend Scripps Ranch PT!!!

I am extremely happy with Physical Therapist Todd Sparks and all of the wonderful staff at Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy. My wife Barbara and I have been going here for nearly two months now. We have received consistently excellent care. Todd really knows his stuff and asks questions to improve the treatment we receive. His confidence is apparent in the rapport he establishes with all of his clients. You can tell he is a genuinely caring person. We highly recommend Todd Sparks and Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy.

Excellent care from the staff and I am now fully recovered. I paid my co pay each time I visited and the staff were very pleasant, I had no problems from getting appointments scheduled which was pretty easy and they really worked with me so that I could fit all appointments into my busy schedule, I was never kept waiting which was nice. I would recommend it.

First, I have to say, I received great physcial care/​therapy for shoulder surgery rehab. Suzie was fantastic.
Its their billing that is a complete disaester.
Here’s the problem… I received my post-​op PT in early 2012 (again, with great results). I’m now receiving a bill, in 2014, with no explanation or reconciliation, over a year and a half later (Really!). I met my deductible early in 2012 and always paid my co-​pays at each visit. As you can imagine, I’ve also closed-​out my flexible spending account for 2012… and now have different insurance coverage. Its not the amount but the principle. I have no way of knowing if these are legit charges, and if they were/​are, why didn’t they bill me in 2012?
Is there a statuate of limitations for medical billing???
I’ve asked for a compete reconcilation (line-​by-​line,). I also indicated that I’d like to meet with someone to review the preceived balance. At the end of the day its probably going to be counter-​productive to dispute or try and go back almost 2 years to reconcile visits/​charges — its just not worth my time. However, as a savvy consumer and competitive athlete, I’m not sure I trust their buisness office enough to go back should I ever need PT again.

This place is so great. Everyone is so nice. All the therapist there are amazing they do such an amazing job with everyone. I have been going there for almost a year and my knee has gotten stronger every time I go there. If you need physical therapy scripps ranch physical therapy is the place to go.

I can’t say enough about how much I love this place! I have been to other physical therapists before for different injuries and this is by far the best in professionalism, atmosphere and overall technique. I have only been for 2 sessions so far and I already feel a huge difference in the performance of my knee.
I love how laid back and friendly the staff is and how comfortable I feel doing all the exercises prescribed by Todd. I don’t feel intimidated or dumb for asking questions like I felt at other places I’ve been to. He never fails to explain every detail of my healing plan and he goes above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Yes, I’m always a little sore afterwards but I believe that means I am doing everything correctly and on the right path to a successful recovery. I would recommend this place to anyone that may need some assistance getting back their body to its full capability.

I am very pleased with my experiences at Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy! From the moment I walk in until the moment I leave I am treated with care and respect. The office staff (Kim and Frankie) are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in getting insurance set up as well as appointments.
Todd Sparks is my PT. He is very knowledgeable in his field and I have the utmost confidence in him and his treatment plan for me. I appreciate it when he asks how I am doing and how I felt after the last session. He goes out of his way to make the treatment/​exercises work with how I am feeling. Todd doesn’t rush through his time with you… and makes you feel that your care is important.
The assistants are also very knowledgeable and friendly and make the experience as fun as you want it to be! I have enjoyed working with each and every one of them.
I, without a doubt, would recommend Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy and Todd Sparks for your physical therapy needs.

I really enjoyed coming here to do my therapy. I found the staff to be a professional, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable.
I injured my knee playing sports, and my goal was to make sure I could resume my activities with no limitations. Todd Sparks helped me reach those goals. Todd is extremely good at what he does. He is very upbeat, positive and encouraging. He keeps you informed of the various aspects of your injury, and the exercises you need to do to recover. I had confidence I was receiving the best, most responsible care possible. I worked with a number of therapist aids that were also quite good. Lastly, the front desk was personable and greeted you by name when you walked in the door, which I thought was really nice.
One reviewer complained about being subject to a painful massage. Keep in mind this is physical therapy, not Massage Envy. The process of healing may involve some discomfort or maybe even pain, and should not be confused with a health spa or salon.

This place is awesome!!! The staff treats you like family. Susie and the rest of the crew were great with helping me get my shoulder back to normal. I would highly recommend this place for your therapy treatment.

What a professional, clean and well-​run operation! From Christy at front desk reception to Wendy, my hand therapist, and her support staff, I was treated with patience, flexibility, respect and kindness during the therapy for my injured wrist following surgery.
Wendy is very caring, knowledgeable, and great at remembering not only all the special things we were working on from week to week, but also our personal preferences and what works; I credit her with giving me the tools to complete my treatment in a timely manner and giving me ways to keep safe from re-​injury. She gave clear and timely updates to my doctors, and kept us on track to resolve my workers comp case. I’ll miss her.
Wonderful people. I highly recommend them!

I am so grateful to have found Todd Sparks and the amazing staff at Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy! The initial month following my accident was very scary for me. I could barely walk, had lots of pain associated with my injury and was apprehensive about treatment. Todd put me at ease right away and earned my trust. He worked with me — through the pain — with great communication, precision and determination to get me mobile. I honestly don’t know how I would have made it through those weeks without him!
My therapy is ongoing, but with Todd as my PT I am confident I will have a positive recovery. Todd communicates with my doctor to ensure I am receiving the utmost care and proper treatment. He’s shown genuine interest in getting me healthy and is responsible for the tremendous progress I have made so far. I can’t thank him and his friendly staff enough! I whole-​heartedly recommend Todd to anyone in need of a knowledgeable, friendly and professional Physical Therapist!

I am not sure if this place is safe to do PT. I got severe bruises on both knees after Todd did a incredibly painful massage. He said that the pain should be normal cause he is trying to stretch some specific muscle in that area. Kaput!!! I woke up the next day with huge bruises on inner and outer part of both knees. He didn’t even call my doctor to check regarding my injury. I went there for healing not for bruising.
As far as friendliness, of course they are all friendly. Everybody is friendly if the they need your service.
To be fair, they are nice people but not knowledgeable enough about what they do.

Love this place! I injured my hand severely about 2 years ago. I had a great hand therapist by SDSU but she moved her location to far for me to travel. I decided to try out Scripps Ranch PT since it is located so close to my house. Janine the hand therapist is great! She is not only good at what she does she is also a wonderful person! She is funny and makes you feel encouraged. The receptionist were always very willing to work with my schedule and trying to fit me in for last minute appointments. The environment was happy and clean! I definitely miss Janine and I highly recommend her!
