What clients are saying

  • I would happily recommend Start PT to any of my family and friends, and have been sharing my experience with everyone at my run club. I came in with some persistent pain in my ankles and hip that were mostly resolved after my first appointment. This made me think Collin was actually magic. Continued seeing him, he taught me so many valuable exercises to better my experience while running and the effect of that has made a tangible difference reflected in how I feel and also my time. Really such a good investment in myself and future health because again you’ll learn so much along the way. Forever grateful!

  • I don’t usually write reviews for healthcare, but START Physical Therapy is worth it - especially Dr. Britta Jones. I worked with her on prehab before my surgery, and it made a real difference. From day one, she took the time to evaluate how I move, where things were off, and what needed to improve. No cookie cutter range of motion exercises - everything was built around what I specifically needed going into surgery. Each session had a clear purpose. We weren’t just going through the motions… we were building strength, improving stability and coordination, and tightening up the weak spots so I’d be in the best shape possible heading in. You can tell when someone really loves what they do. Dr. Jones does. Her experience with orthopedic physical therapy and pre-surgical rehab showed in how she adjusted things as I progressed and kept everything moving forward with a highly personalized approach. That’s what stands out about START Physical Therapy. They’re focused, consistent, and actually care about outcomes. If you’re looking for physical therapy in Newport Beach or Costa Mesa (or anywhere, really - I drive 30 minutes to their practice, passing dozens of other PT offices), whether it’s prehab, post-surgical rehab, or improving your athletic performance, I’d point you to START without hesitation.

  • I have had the pleasure of being seen by Dr. Alan Lee over the course of many years for various injuries as I am a dentist and lifetime athlete. Dr. Alan literally provides one of a kind treatment in Newport Beach as he is the only PRI certified physical therapist in the Orange County. His approach is multifaceted and truly unique and the results speak for themselves. As a medical professional myself who has sought answers to my chronic neck pain, back pain and poor posture, Dr. Lee’s has helped me not only get better but also understand the mechanics of body wellness that’s lead to long term results. His enthusiasm can be felt in the whole team at Start Physical Therapy. I highly recommend them!
