"I was introduced to John as a PT when I first started running.  I developed new runner overuse issues and John helped me physically and mentally to overcome my issues and complete my first half marathon. Fast forward through a hyperextended knee (due to a friend’s loving dog) and a possible fractured patella from trail running. Whenever I showed up with whatever I’d done, John always treated me with care that not only helped me heal the injury but helped to make me overall stronger and more confident.  My last injury, a fractured elbow that required surgery was my worst.  John didn’t sugar coat the amount of time he would need to work with me for me to try to return to my life with a functioning elbow.  While I waited to begin the rehab, John helped me to begin my recovery with assistance on things I could do until given the okay of my orthopedic surgeon.  This helped me not to feel powerless and unable to do things I wanted to do.  John carefully guided me through my recovery during our PT sessions and provided me guidance on work I needed to do at home to keep my recovery moving forward.  With his excellent guidance, I was released by my orthopedic surgeon in only 6 weeks and completed my PT sessions with John in only about two and one half months.  I was originally told my recovery would most likely be 6-9 months or longer.  I am so pleased that I have full flexion and full extension on my arm and have gained back nearly all of my previous strength.  I would not be where I am today without the care and attention to detail John provided me."

“John is a shining example of what a physical therapist should be.  His approach to patients is courteous, thorough, clear and positive.  He applies his skills in an unrushed manner and proceeds through his program in a progressive way that allows his patients to see progress with each visit.  He is firm enough to produce results with the minimal amount of screaming, LOL. He is engaging in a way that makes seeing him very pleasant in spite of the rigors of his regimen.

I can not provide a higher recommendation for any health care provider and wish him well in his new path.”

“As much as I credit my surgeon for making recovering from my ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair an easy process, he was only half of the battle. With John's guidance not only through PT with my knee, but also mentally to help keep my goals reasonable and my morale up during the whole recovery, he helped me to a full and confident recovery and return to competitive soccer. I appreciated his willingness to answer any questions I had and send me research that he was basing his therapy techniques on. Having the ability to have engaging discussions on why we were doing certain exercises, or why the recovery timeline was the way it was helped me to be an active participant in my recovery rather than a passenger just being told what to do. Since completing my therapy with him, I have had no issues with my knee and I believe this is because he tailored my physical therapy to me, rather than just sticking to a script.”

“I cannot recommend John Wehrer as a physical therapist highly enough. He was a tremendous help to me twice in the past few years. The first time he guided me through recovery of a fibular stress fracture (a new injury). The second time was for a decades old chronic lower back pain problem that had become unbearable. Throughout treatment for both injuries (one pretty straightforward and one more complex), John was incredible. He taught me new exercises and strategies to help manage my chronic condition. His knowledge, patience, excellent communication skills, kindness, and encouragement were invaluable in answering all of my endless questions, helping me get through some rough patches, and develop a regular exercise routine that has given me greater mobility and flexibility, and a lot less pain. Thank you so very very much John!”

“Roughly 1.5 years post proximal hamstring tendon repair, I felt my progress in regaining hamstring strength had stalled. We tested both hamstrings and learned there was a significant strength imbalance and both hamstrings were weak enough to put me at an elevated risk for injury. John constructed a plan built to not only balance the healthy and repaired sides, but also improve strength overall. He listened to my concerns, we pivoted where and when we needed to, and he wanted my feedback throughout the process. The outcome? I met the strength target I needed to reach for my desired activity AND my repaired hamstring tested stronger than the non-impacted hamstring. I trust John to have my best interests at the forefront of his approach to my care.”
