Just had my last physical therapy visit. Everything feels good and ready to go back to work. Juan at Cornerstone PT has been amazing. For 2 years I’ve seen multiple doctors and surgeons and he’s was the one that seemed to care about getting me back. For 2 years not only was he my physical therapist but some days he was an emotional therapist also. I would recommend him to anyone. Super thankful

I love this office. Everybody is incredibly kind and very positive from the second you walk in. I look forward to my appointments all week long. I work with Physical Therapist Roni Funk and she is *incredible.* Non-judgemental, empathetic, reassuring, and genuinely cares about treating the whole person. I was in so much pain and felt defeated when I started PT. Of course it takes time to heal, but even the first visit helped tremendously. I've learned a ton from Roni and she has improved my life significantly.

Try Physical Therapy First

Book appointment

In most cases, the quicker an individual goes to physical therapy, the quicker they will experience improvement.  Additionally, studies have shown that choosing PT first can reduce the need for costly tests and imaging. 

Dr. Juan Jaramillo and Dr. Stacy Jaramillo met while studying at Florida State University. They both share a passion for science and healthcare which led them to pursue a Doctoral degree in Physical Therapy from the Arizona School of Health Sciences in Mesa, AZ.
