Here’s what patients say after starting shoulder physical therapy in San Antonio, TX.

"Dr. Puckett is a tremendous physical therapist. Had 2 shoulder surgeries last year and went through months of so called PT after 2nd surgery. Totally wasted my time. Had hardly no strength in shoulder when I started seeing Dr. Puckett."

-Mike Scotten

"I've only been getting PT for a month. The mobility in my shoulder is better than it's been in over 1 year. Dr. Puckett is amazing. We went through a number of exercises until we found the ones that weren't too painful and made huge progress."

- Chad Elseth

""Dr. Garcia has been proactive reaching out to her surgeon & her high school athletic trainer. Puckett PT is comprehensive and attentive to my athlete's needs & I couldn't ask for more. Traditional PT was practically leaving her to her own devices”

-Bobbie Viera

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions about knee pain physical therapy in San Antonio, TX.

 

Do I need an MRI before starting PT for knee pain?
Usually not. We screen for red flags and begin care right away; imaging is only recommended if it changes the plan.

How fast will knee pain improve?
Many feel relief in 2–4 visits as swelling calms and strength improves. Timelines vary by condition and goals.

Can PT help meniscus pain, patellofemoral pain, or arthritis?
Yes—targeted strength, mobility, and activity tweaks often reduce pain and restore function. Plans are individualized.

Will I be able to run again?
For most runners, yes. We’ll build a graded return‑to‑run plan based on symptoms and tolerance.

Do you take my insurance?
We’ll verify benefits and provide a clear estimate before you start. Call (210) 742‑9423 for details.
