"Was referred to Shankar by a number of friends. Excellent to work with. Very intentional about an appropriate treatment plan. Excellent staff!"

"I have seen Dr Shankar and Andrew over a ten year period for varying neuromuscular matters and have personally seen a tremendous relief! From lumbar to sport injuries, I am far better off from their help."

"Ascent Physical Therapy Specialists is an awesome PT center that individualizes their evaluations, treatments and recommendations for each individual that come to their clinic. Shankar Krishnan DPT, the owner of the clinic is an extraordinary diagnostician and provider of awesome PT services. I am a fellow Physical Therapist and I would recommend Shankar and his team to all my friends, relatives and fellow clinicians for honest and thorough clinical attention to FUNCTION, MOVEMENT and PAIN Issues !!!!!!!!! FIVE STARS !!!!! SHELLY DENES PT, C/NDT, CFPS, CGCP"

"Very individualized, competent care by experienced Physical Therapists."

"Great professionalism"

"Incredible expertise and patient-centered services--using the latest in technologies. The Best!"

"First time patient and extremely impressed with the personal, intense assessment skills. Caring environment."

"The staff and therapist are caring and thoughtful. I was surprised at the quick results which helped me continue my daily routines and work life without pain."

"This was my 6th PT office in the last 8 years or so, and I won't go anywhere else if I have further needs. I had a Pandora's box of problems that needed holistic treatment. Multiple, long-term pain points were closely analyzed and some unique therapy worked out all of my issues. Dr. Krishnan is exceptional and helped me identify an additional problem for concurrent treatment to achieve full success. Dr. Grix is also exceptional - the two make an excellent team; different approaches but seamless results. Alternating between both of them helped move my healing along faster. Staff are amazing (shout-outs esp. to Maya and Miranda). I recommend Ascent to everyone I talk to!"

"Shankar really cares about his patients and will work the problem creatively until it is fixed. He never gives up, and he has fixed everything I have ever come to him with. Very knowledgeable and a very nice person too."

"I just love the entire staff at Ascent... they work together as a team and their passion shows in their work! I love that they are hands on with their patients... unlike other clinics i have been to. Each therapist has their own methods of therapy and treatment but it works great as they individualize to each patients specific therapy needs. I highly would recommend them to all my family and friends!!!"

"I have been a patient of Ascent PT 3 different times. Twice for my lower back and currently for a a badly broken shoulder that I hurt while snow skiing. I’ve utilized the services of both therapists and while their techniques vary slightly, they are both very knowledgeable and excel at what they do. Theirs is a hands on approach individualized by each patient. They are both compassionate, gentle, but definitely push me to my limits. I intend to be using my arm good as new thanks to their help and support."

"My own experience is when I call to make a appointment to schedule my PT a young lady that answer the phone she was nice and polite about it. And when I arrive there on my schedule date they were so friendly and that's kind of hard to find in people but I will recommend my friends and family to come there for PT."

"Afraid the PT will be a bunch of watanabe drill sergeants pushing you to the limit, feeling pain the day after and all at a time that's incredibly disruptive to your daily routine? Well, that nightmare, is NOT EVEN CLOSE the experience you'll have at Ascent Physical Therapy. Here, doctors treat the patients directly, they assess more than the issue that brought you to them, ensuring if other aspects of your body are out of balance, they treat those too. For me, my back pain had me over compensating and created a hip issue too. I have treatments 2x a week (45-60 min), I felt immediate improvement and their varied in-office treatment and at home exercises are working. I believe I will be able to continue a simple ongoing routine after my initial treatment sessions that will serve as preventative care after my session are done. If you're looking for gym-style national chain where doctors don't remember your name - this is not the place for you. If you want individualized care, conducted by DPTs uniquely tailored for you - then give them a call - you won't be disappointed."

"Shankar and his team do an outstanding job. Shankar has a profound understanding of the human body and the healing process. He has helped me and members of my family recover from various injuries. He not only addresses the injury, but also provides an exercise plan to ensure the underlying causes of the injury are addressed. He is a kind and caring person, and genuinely cares for the well being of his patients. I feel fortunate to have met him and am most appreciative for the care he provided. I am now able to enjoy a physically active lifestyle, in large part due to his care. If you are in need of physical therapy, this is the place for you."

"Visited here 6 years ago for a 25 year old history of hip/glute issues. Dr Shankar said I would not be back if I kept up my simple 15 minute routine. He was right! I was freed of a lot of pain! Now I am back but it is for a different issue in my neck/shoulder. The staff is always so positive and kind. Very caring atmosphere where you get well and learn how to keep yourself well. I will miss them when I graduate to self care alone!"

"The staff shows personal care, concern about your well-being and are extremely professional."

"Dr Shankar and his team (mostly Andrew) have been so wonderful. I have hypermobility and autonomic issues that have caused multiple issues with my muscles and joints, they have been so helpful in helping to relieve some of the effects of these. I would recommend this caring team to anyone."

"The very best skills and treatment!"

"Everyone in the office is a delight and cares about your needs! All of the therapists are very thorough and are determined to figure out the best way to help the healing process. They really care about getting to the root of the problem for the best results! Love this place!!!"

"I had what turned out to be a very complicated shoulder surgery in November 2018. I started physical therapy at Ascent the day following surgery. I’d never had surgery before, didn’t know what to expect and was quite scared. After my initial appointment with Millie, Shankar approached me and reassured me that everything was going to get better and be okay. I felt noticed and embraced by the staff! Throughout my therapy the team worked with me as an individual and addressed my personal needs. It’s been 5 months now and I’m about to be released from therapy...bittersweet as they’ve become like family. I’m feeling strong, have the tools I need to continue down the path of total recovery and can reach out with any questions at any point."

"Excellent care. The therapists are all incredibly knowledgeable and take time to work with you individually. You feel like a true patient they care about helping rather than just a part on a conveyor belt at a factory like other clinics I’ve been to. I recommend them to everyone."

"Casual, comfortable environment with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Shankar is extremely knowledgeable and really listened to my concerns about the pain I was experiencing. Have been living pain free for over a year now and would highly recommend Ascent to anyone looking for a personalized care experience."

"Excellent therapy with very knowledgeable & caring therapists I look forward to going each time"

"I can’t thank Assent Physical Therapy enough. They are so Caring and giving of themselves. Each therapist is super knowledgeable and shares that knowledge to make sure that you know exactly what’s going on with each new situation. Thank you Ascent! I won’t go anywhere else."

"Recommended by Cleveland Clinic five years ago and would not think of going anywhere else! Yes, treatment keep getting better all the time because they are constantly updating their knowledge base and treatment modalities. Don’t believe me? Well come in and try for yourselves!"

"Wonderful experience, highly recommended!"

"Wonderful experience. Caring and knowledgable; Listens to your concerns. Cured my vertigo; Back improved! He goes above and beyond to make a difference."

"Peace and professionalism is what you will find at Accent Pt along with excellent treatment coupled with caring loving Docs to correct our injuries !! I thank GOD for every person that works in that place with unison and order they accomplish your therapy. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else to get treatment. The atmosphere brings joy to Gods people!! Their experience alone say a lot for the knowledgeable staff that has joined together to deliver healing and INTHE NAME OF JESUS I SAY TY APT PLEASE COME AND SEE LOOK NO FURTHER"

"Best physical therapy experience I have ever had. Their knowlegeable staff stays with you thoughout the entire session and make customizations and accommodations as needed. They helped significantly reduced my low back pain that I have had for years. The therapists also gave me exercises to continue to further progress and have provided an open door for any issues that may pop up. I can't thank Dr. Shankar and his staff enough!"

"I would highly recommend Ascent Physical Therapy Specialists to anyone who needs physical therapy. My 17 year old son fractured both bones in his arm while skateboarding. He required surgery. It took a plate and numerous screws to repair his fracture. His surgeon informed us right away that he would not be able to achieve normal range of motion in his arm again due to his injury, but would be "functional with therapy." We were heartbroken. When he fully recovered, it was time for physical therapy. I chose Ascent based on meeting Shankar. He shared his philosophy of being a hands on Physical Therapist. His passion and dedication was obvious. Additionally, my son really liked and connected with him. My son had great results after much hard work. He has regained complete and full range of motion in his arm and wrist. His surgeon was AMAZED and I am delighted. Thank you so much Shankar."
