My 14YO Level10 gymnast has been seeing Brian regularly since she fractured a growth plate near her knee 9 months ago. He has been instrumental in getting her back to her sport both physically and mentally. He followed a very systematic plan based on peer-reviewed literature specific to her gymnastics level and injury. An added bonus is that he acted as a positive mental coach for her as well; he accompanied her to the gym and encouraged her on the next step in the progression of her skills. He has so many connections to the orthopedic world and helped us facilitate lots of appointments with specialists and such. She now goes to him for pre-hab to help prevent other issues and to reinforce all that he taught her. I can't say enough positive things about Brian, and recommend him whole-heartedly!!!
Brian was amazing with our daughter who is a competitive gymnast. His expert knowledge guided her through a very successful recovery from elbow surgery. Brian was so positive and motivating with her. He was also very thorough with taking the time to understand her sport and tailor her PT specifically to her needs. We are so thankful for Brian and highly recommend him as a physical therapist.
Dr. Brian has helped our daughter Ryann in so many ways. She is a competitive gymnast and suffers many aches, pains and injuries. Dr. Brian works with her weekly on her physical therapy and gives her at home PT homework each week to continue her care. He has been so understanding and caring. His schedule is super easy to navigate and making appointments is a breeze. He is super responsive to emails in a timely manner as well.
I cannot recommend Brian highly enough as a physical therapist. I began working with him after a meniscus injury in my right knee, and the progress I’ve made under his care has been remarkable. Brian brings an incredible wealth of knowledge to his practice, but what sets him apart is the way he distills that expertise into clear, accessible guidance. He strikes the perfect balance between structured rehabilitation and the wisdom to know when additional interventions or treatments might be needed. Throughout my rehab, Brian has not only supported my physical healing but has also helped me truly understand the process. Thanks to his guidance, I feel like I’ve become a partner in my own recovery and even something of an expert on how my knee can and will heal. His thoughtful, patient-centered approach has made all the difference.
There are not words to describe how amazing Brian Ishola is as a Physical Therapist. He creates a positive and comfortable atmosphere where he challenges you and fights for you. I have had my fair share of experiences with Physical Therapists, and no one even comes close to Brian. He truly cares about his patients and will go the extra mile to make sure they get what they need. He is very smart and works hard at what he does. When I first went to see Brian was in November of 2022, I had recently torn my ACL and meniscus and he was an intricate part of me being able to come back to play soccer in the fall of 2023. My experience with him impacted me so much that when I tore my meniscus again in the spring of 2025, I did not hesitate to reach out to him and ask if he would take me on as a patient again. He treats each of his patients as if you are is only patient. He listens and wants you to succeed, I truly believe that Brian Ishola cares about me as a person before a patient and that is what makes him such a good Physical Therapist.
