My experience at Performance PT has been wonderful and very, very helpful. I wish I had come sooner. My treatments have completely cured me of neck pain!
Michelle S. (Weedsport, NY)
Thanks to Mike Fay, I'm healed. He was great, very informative, patient and soft spoken. He treats you like a person and not just another patient.

Mike Fay was excellent in handling my plantar fasciitis. I was in pain for 1-1/2 years. The pain is gone and I have returned to my normal activities.
