Dave carefully and patiently worked to re-hab a baffling hand/wrist injury with both great knowledge and great humor. I don’t know, maybe it’s his extreme-sports background, (or was it the accent?) but I felt like I had my own personal cheering section. As the injury got better and better, there was that extra-something of good cheer to help it heal.
Happy to report I’m now able to do handstands again. Thanks, Dave.

After having had bi-lateral knee surgery, I was introduced to Dave in order to begin my physical therapy treatment. I believe that working with Dave greatly attributed to both a rapid and successful recovery.He provided me with both theknowledge and treatment necessary to regain my strength and stability. Dave is an exceptional therapist and has a great abilty to motivate his patients andmake physical therapy and the hard work that comes along with it fun!His passion for his work andencouragementtowards his patients reallycame through and motivated me to work hard and succeed within my treatment program. I would highly recommend Dave to any potential patient.

Dave is a skilled and professional Physical Therapist that gives his patients his undivided attention. He always knew what massage or exercise to heal my aches and pains for my foot and knee. Thanks to Dave, both areas are pain free and I'm walking normally again. I highly recommend Dave as a Physical Therapist. Thanks for everything.

Dave was my last chance to avoid surgery. I had full wear of the cartilage in my knee due to my patella being out of alignment. I had seen one of the best surgeons at HSS and had completed 8 weeks of physical therapy without relief. As a last resort, my doctor recommended Kiwi Dave cautioning me that doing physical therapy with him would be a "real workout" 19 therapy sessions later I was squatting 260 pounds and was free from knee pain for the first time in 18 months. Now I am back doing everything I love including playing for one of the best men's ice hockey teams in New York City. Dave is the best physical therapist I have ever worked with, takes great care of his patients, and most importantly, gets results. I would recommend Dave without reservation to anyone.

Many thanks to Dave Wickenden and Kiwi PT for the personal care and attention over the last 3 months during my recovery from hip replacement surgery. I was referred to Dave by a colleague at work and quickly came to appreciate his expertise in physical therapy as he worked with me to ensure a rapid and robust recovery. I especially appreciated the fact that Dave was on hand for all my sessions which ensured a consistent and personal treatment regime.

My surgeon recommended that I go to Dave for my physical therapy sessions after having extensive surgery on both feet. He proved to be a competent, qualified therapist with a winning personality. His skill, knowledge and experience are outstanding. He cares about his patients and wants us to do well. Thank you Dave, for helping me through a challenging recovery.

Dave,
I would like to take the time to write to you for the wonderful job you preformed on my shoulder, everyone I spoke to had no answer. Except you, knowing my round the clock routine with bar tending, raising a family and golf I didn't miss a stroke! So a quick note and a big thanks.
