What Our Clients Say

Kip P.

I have been here several times over the years, seeing Tim McGonigle.  He is a very knowledgeable, considerate, and professional therapist.  He listens to my complaints, acknowledges that I know my own body and its limits, and treats me with respect and looks for what will work for me and my specific body limits and/or strengths.  The front desk is helpful and professional, getting in for an appt can be difficult at times due to how popular Tim is as a therapist, but the front desk always does their best to get the patient in before too long.  I definitely have and will recommend Folsom PT to friends and acquaintances.

Tim is a very caring individual and extremely knowledgeable and clearly takes pride in helping people rehabilitate. His expertise goes beyond the physical to include nutrition and total well being. He is an exceptional resource. 

I can’t thank him or recommend him enough.
