Dr Amer has been diligent in trying to find the source of my pain. He’s constantly doing research and trying to educate me on it as well. He’s a good guy to be around and a great physical therapist. 5/5 would recommend

Dr. Amer provided my post-surgery physical therapy immediately following a knee reconstruction. I attribute my rapid and successful recovery to his early care and guidance. He took the time to assess my individual (and not typical) needs, and provided an effective and motivational rehabilitation plan during those early crucial weeks after surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Nader Amer for the skill and care that he brings to his patients' needs.

I was planning on running a half marathon in Zion Natl Park when 7 weeks before the race I pulled my calf. I tried resting, massage, rolling, heat--you name it but my calf wouldn't get better. Desperatly, I reached out to Dr. Nader and he gave me lots of physical therapy homework to do. I did my due diligence and a week before the race my calf seemed a lot better. I decided to go through with the race knowing I could reinjure myself, but I ended up running injury free and placing 52 overall female out of 500 racers and 8th in my age group. Thanks so much Dr. Nader!!! I'll be contacting you for any future PT needs.

I had lots of upper back and neck issues from sitting at a desk all day. Occasionally I would have spasms and have trouble moving my head. Dr. Amer was able to remediate the issue through a combination of exercises, massage, and stretching. I have not had a back or neck issue since I’ve started therapy with him. Thank you!

I cannot recommend DNA Physical Therapy enough. Dr. Amer became a key member of my team in fighting glioblastoma grade 4. The effects of this brain tumor are very similar to a stroke and my entire left side shut down. Dr. Amer taught me to walk again. He also trained me to use my left hand again. His experience with cancer enabled him to diagnose a blood clot that if undetected could've been very dangerous. Being an athlete I related very well to Dr. Amer. He knew when to push me and when to let me rest. This was very important in keeping my Motivation high and frustration level low.

Dr.Amer Nader at DNA Physical Therapy treated my mom for shoulder and neck pain . He took the time to listen and to understand her case so he could help her feel better. He has a good personality and knowledge. I will definitely recommend him to my family and friends.

Dr. Amer has provided me with the best physical therapy over the years. His business emulates what it means to provide patient centered care, providing individualized therapy plans and appropriate patient follow-up. He recently recommended a therapy regimen for my bursitis, that kept me up at night, and within a week I was no longer in pain. If you’re ever looking for a therapist who will listen and provide a treatment focused around mutual goals of care, then I highly recommend Dr. Amer.

Dr. Amer was respectful and listened intently before deciding a course of action. He even did extensive research after our first session to make sure he knew as much about my injury as possible.
