After knowing I had a doctor's appointment, Josh's first question was to see how things went as he knew I was nervous about it. He takes the time to listen and answer questions, which helps him develop a plan and find strengthening exercises, stretches, etc. to help me get back to where I was and meet my goals. I am so thankful to have him as my physical therapist.

Because Josh listens and hears what and how I'm feeling, he was able to figure not only why I'm moving the way I am, but also how to fix it. I am already feeling a difference after doing the exercises he gave me for the week. He keeps in my mind my goals. And, his genuine care is helping me to achieve those goals.

After 40 years obtaining periodic PT for hip and back pain Joshua diagnosed it's root cause... Joshua performed a comprehensive review of my spine. 40 minutes into that review I casually mentioned I broke my leg 51 years ago. He immediately looked at me, performed some more analysis, and stated that my right leg was shorter than my left which caused much of my chronic pain due to posture issues. I would highly recommend him to other back pain patients!

Excellent, as always. As I mentioned before, I had a lot that happened prior to coming in for my appointment. So, there was a lot weighing on my mind. His positive demeanor and genuine care helped to ease my mind and focus on getting my leg back to normal. Josh is very knowledgeable. He makes sure that I understand what is happening and why it is happening (even using models so I can better visualize) and how different stretches/exercises are help.

Joshua Kuntz, PT, DPT reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
