What Our Clients Say

Trusted by athletes and active adults across Keller and North Fort Worth

If I could give 10 stars I would...Dr. Ryan is the best! I came in having 6 months of knee pain due to an injury, and after exhausting all my resources on other treatments, I am finally pain free due to him! He knows exactly what to do with your specific injury to make you feel so much better. Go see him!

Diane Elder
Active Adult

Ryan has been amazing throughout my shoulder recovery — and even helped to resolve other nagging issues with my knees! I’m thankful for the one on one therapy and for the relief I feel after only a handful of sessions. Would recommend to athletes, 10/10.

Jordan Schilling
Active Adult

Dr. Ryan is truly the best physical therapist around! I can’t say enough about how Elevation Athletics has helped me. I have been working with him for awhile now. Dr. Ryan has dramatically improved my strength and mobility and I continue to be a patient for preventive treatments. I can’t imagine going anywhere else for treatment and will probably be a lifelong patient.

Melanie P
Active Adult

Dr. Ryan and his team at Elevation Athletics are amazing! They are thorough. They push you to heal and be better and stronger, but are kind and hear you along the way. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Kaylee Murphree

Want to give a a big Thank you to you physical therapy team it was their awareness and thorough evaluation that caught that I had a cancers tumor. We caught it soon and I am now cancer free

Carmen Pedersen
Active Adult

I see Dr. Perez for shoulder and knee pain. My shoulders were waking me up in the middle of the night, for months, because of all the pain I was in. After listening to my issues and a 2 minute massage, I no longer was waking up in pain. He actually listens to what you are feeling and targets your concerns.
