Athletes, Dancers & Martial Artists: You want Dr James Foos enhance your performance or structure your healing and recovery from injury. He has supported the recovery and restoration of the innervation nerves and atrophied muscle tissue of my right hip and leg. In five months Dr. Foo's instruction has stabilized my gait, balance, and established the regeneration of neural communication to my hip rotators, knees, ankle and toes. He also paid attention to the balanced development of my right side and left side by correcting the residual compensation use habits. Who am I? I am a 72 year old bicycle rider who got thrown down the road by a 'dualy' pickup truck 6 years ago. The doctors did great with the life threatening broken left shoulder blade and 7 broken ribs from the wide load mirrors on the right side of the truck. The fact that my right hips was cartwheel smashed into the blacktop was not 'life threatening' just a 'lifestyle' choice limitation. It fell through the insurance cracks until 5 months ago it seized up after a tripping fall outside while walking with a friend in New York City. The pain was limiting the ordinary unaided life functions and so 'qualified' for insurance coverage treatment. Without Dr. James Foo I would not be walking 8-10 miles a week, riding a bicycle, climb the 4 flights of stairs to my apartment w/o stopping 'to rest'. Me, a High school cross country runner, a college to New York professional dancer (paid for my life for 2yrs) and Construction electrician for 30 yrs. Imagine my joy to have the ability to dance and workout until I experience 'good workout yesterday' pain! Martial artists, dancers, athletes, you want Dr. Foos to guide your performance limit challenges, and injury healing recovery regimes. Charles Molloy New...
   Read moreThis is a long overdue review (sorry James). James helped me with my ACL reconstruction back in the fall of 2023. Due to my travel schedule, I wasn't able to continue working with James throughout my entire recovery. I've since seen several PTs all over the world (even Olympic PTs) and it is without a doubt that James is the best PT I've worked with for this injury and probably in my lifetime. James was fair about pricing and went the extra mile to bill to my insurance on my behalf (not common for out of network providers). He was so PATIENT: always answered my millions of questions and gracefully managed my skepticism/anxiety. He was also very thorough with both table time and movement. The facilities are impressively clean and private. A lot of my recovery was psychological, so it was nice to come into a calm environment where I could push myself without getting any "gym anxiety." James' expertise was invaluable to my recovery, he, more than anyone, helped me gain the confidence I needed to get back into the world with my knee.
I wish all PTs were like James... if you're considering going somewhere else, don't.
Thank you for...
   Read moreTHE VERY BEST OF THE BEST PHYSICAL THERAPIST IN MANHATTAN I met Dr. Foo at the beginning of Pandemic in March 2020 as I cracked my ankle. He went above and beyond to get me better with PT, taping my foot and manageable exercises for home. When all shut down he went every week on zoom to help me recover and start walking again. Walking I do very well now and there are ZERO left over symptoms. It all healed fantastic. in November I had severe pain in my left shoulder, neck and left side of Head. Now Dr. Foo has his own practice and accepts MEDICARE!!!!! I had 3 weeks before I was going to Europe and he managed to get me pain free and send me on my trip with some simple exercises and I stayed mostly pain free if I did not over do it like carry a suite case. After my return I have continue now and every week I am improving. He totally knows what is doing. He always finds the right areas that need PT with manageable home exercises. I went from barely any movement to very good movement. IF YOU TRULY WANT TO GET BETTER GO TO DR. FOO HE WILL GET YOU BETTER. I live over 100 blocks away and will only go to him for PT since I had truly...
