Testimonials

Jake Zaslow

"I had a great experience at Athletico Gold Coast. I worked with Dani for three months in mid-2025 and returned for another three months for a different issue - she was fantastic both times. She always took the time to really listen, understand how things were progressing, and adapt the plan over time based on my improvement. She brought a consistently positive, kind, and energetic attitude to every session, which made the whole process much easier and more motivating. The culture and atmosphere her and the other PTs have created also elevated the experience. The support coordination team, especially Emma, was also excellent. They were always incredibly responsive, patient, and willing to help with anything that came up. I'd highly recommend Athletico Gold Coast and Dani to anyone looking for thoughtful, high-quality care."

Gavin Meyer

"I highly recommend Athletico Gold Coast. Jen has been awesome in helping me prepare for surgery and throughout my recovery afterward. The entire staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. They always go out of their way to say hello and make you feel comfortable. I'm challenged every day and genuinely excited about the progress I'm making."

Ambrosia O'Connor

"I recently returned to this Athletico with debilitating chronic lower back pain. My previous physical therapist is no longer at this location, so I was assigned to work with Dani Harkavy. She is EXCELLENT. Within just a couple sessions, Dani identified the root cause, reached out to my doctor to get clarification on my physical restrictions, created a plan, and gave me specific exercises that worked like magic. Dani's hands on one-on-one approach, dedication, and incredible knowledge have helped me greatly. I highly recommend."

Beta Rodriguez

"I've been going to Athletico for my injuries for about 7 months and it has been one of the best experiences. Jen has been my PT and I've felt so much stronger afterwards. She is super positive and I always have the best time when I go."

"April and Jen are the best PTs at this clinic! After dealing with several injuries I always receive the best care here. The front desk staff (Mike and Emma) are extremely welcoming and helpful along with the aids (Emma, Valeria and Hailey) who take such good care of their patients. Good, clean bright location too!"

Daryl Galinsky

"I have been going to Athletico Gold Coast since June for degenerative disks in my cervical and lumbar spine that have caused me pain and affected my mobility. I've had the absolute pleasure of working with April for PT. She focused on my lumbar spine post spinal fusion surgery. It's been a very rough recovery for me since I had knee replacement surgery in November 11/24 and had not fully recovered from that rehab when i required spinal fusion for compression of the nerve at L5 that presented with foot drop. The two rehabs back to back has been very challenging but April has never allowed me to give up. She shows up at every session with a can do positive attitude and a smile on her face. She's a natural cheerleader and has encouraged me to do what's necessary to regain mobility. I've also worked with OT Chad who helped me with exercises to increase my hand strength that has been impacted by compression of nerves in my cervical spine. Chad has also been professional and kind. His tenacity in trying to figure out why I have weakness in my hand has helped the Drs dig deeper to help diagnose the issue. Finally, I've worked with Dani to treat positional vertigo. She's helped me enormously and I currently have very little residual vertigo. I highly recommend Athletico Gold Coast . The therapists are well- trained and highly professional. Scheduling is a breeze with Mike and Emma. I can't imagine going anywhere else for therapy!"

Julia Gerber

"I had the best experience at Athletico Gold Coast. Everybody was so kind and professional. My physical therapist Kiya was extremely caring, knowledgeable, and attentive. I feel 100% better after my month of physical therapy and would absolutely recommend Athletico to everyone!"

Kaylyn Schwichtenberg

"I have been a patient at this location for 2 shoulder surgeries and have seen George both times. He is great and I would highly recommend this location. George always takes time to address my concerns and has been maintaining great communication with my doctor. If you are need of PT, this is the place to go!"
