“They put Humpty Dumpty back together again...”

Doctor Jack not only treated my shoulder injury, he and his staff treated me like family. Its truly an amazing place to heal.

“ACL Repair Guru! 5 months of Progress”

Tearing your ACL is not a pleasant experience, but the therapists at Total Recovery made it the best it could be (post surgery). I came to Jack and his team after trying another physical therapy place that didn't work out, and was very lucky to stumble upon Jack online. As a certified personal trainer, I can tell when someone knows there stuff, and Jack does. He took the time to explain the therapy exercises and WHY. The staff always asked how I was doing and cared about my well being. When I didn't come to see Jack, Dino and Mike (the other therapists) were right there to pick up where we left off. Stefania, the coordinator also was great. I am sad to leave TRPT, but I guess it's a good thing since I have gotten stronger, faster, and more agile under their care. I would highly recommend Jack to anyone else that needed PT, as I saw him work on patients with back, shoulder, hip, and knee problems. Kudos to Jack for setting up a cool place. - Brett (29 yrs old)

“Great Experience!!”

Had rotator cuff repair surgery on May 1. Jack and his staff were the best! 6 months later and I am a new person Cant say enough great things about Total Recovery. An overall excellent experience! Thank you Total Recovery.

“The Best PT Experience Ever”

The first time with Jack, he impressed me with his knowledge and my rehab on my shoulder was and is fantastic. Now I'm back with Jack at a new location and great staff for knee pain. Again, he has used techniques that surprised me but had great results. I thought I would need a knee replacement but not any more. Thanks Jack.

“Amazing recovery for stubborn back injury”

Jack and his staff are amazing and have been an absolute pleasure to work with. Everyone is so friendly and scheduling is super flexible. Came in for a very frustrating back injury and are so impressed with the results. Highly recommend!

“Absolutely professional and extremely helpful!”

Jack and his team have brought me back to walking and living, pain free! Their techniques and exercises are spot on! On eof the best medical procedures I have ever had. Thank you!T

“Personal service”

You can tell by how Jack, Dino, Sasha and Stefania relate to Total Recovery's patients that this is not an assembly line PT facility. Everyone at Total Recovery is warm and friendly and seem to genuinely care about my recovery.

“great results”

i avoided professional pt after knee surgery,bad decision. After years of pain and progressive knee immobility decided to seek pt. Best decision!!!!!! I saw significant positive improvement within the fist week. After a month able to move painfree with flexibility and ease. Completely satisfied.

“Excellent Therapist”

My two sons and I had never had physical therapy. Jack is very knowledgeable and takes his time to explain the exercises. He is very friendly and made us feel comfortable. The staff is also great and helpful when setting up the appointments.
Overall we are very satisfied with our physical therapy experience.

“Highly Personalized Service & An AMAZING Team”

From the very first moment we walked in, we knew we picked the right place. We have been to many different PT places in the Montclair - all are good but this ones stands out.

We used Total Recovery for our 15 year old daughter.

Jack spent a good hour in the initial assessment and every session she received personalized care. Never waiting around nor feeling rushed.

What makes this place extra special is the way they incorporate aspects of a given sport into the therapy session.

“Great experience !”

Great experience in a intimate environment! Loved the one on one attention. Had hip replacement surgery and the team had me nearly at full strength and range of motion in 6 weeks! Excellent follow up.

“Great experience!!!!!”

Total Recovery PT is a great place to go to receive PT for many different issues! My back feels great and anyone who walks in says the same!

“Been to PT before... but not like this”

I have been to PT before and expected something similar...the routine, mundane list of exercises contained neatly on a set of handouts...etc.
So when Dr Jack was recommended with such high accolades that it seemed unrealistic. Well let me confirm.
Professionalism, courtesy, personal involvement...yes. But add to that a thorough and holistic knowledge of the issues and how to become healthy again, and stay that way, this is the person you want on your team.

“Amazing DPT”

First time I came to Dr. Zuckerman he worked on my hand, which was injured from a fall, and I had great results. I was extremely happy that I was able to go back to using my hand the way I did before my fall. I was so pleased with his work and recommended him to a few of my friends and came back for PT on my foot after a surgery. He has made getting back to normal easier than expected.

“Great Place”

Total Recovery PT are excellent, Jack was very helpful for me and my shoulder recovery,he gave me good advice.The exercices he shared with me were very appropriate to my situation,and will continue to help me.The atmosphere is graet in this place

“very thorough”

Jack has spent more time with me than any other PT I have seen. Because of this, I am in better shape more quickly than I have ever been before. I highly recommend him.

“Helpful!”

Came to Jack for lower back problems and hips. He knew exactly what to do where it started from ! I am still in treatment and looking forward to feeling better!

“jack is a good listener and helps me tremendously with controling my pain”

He is very knowledgable in all aspects of anatomy.

“Great Physical Therapy Experience”

Dr, Zuckerman is an exceptional therapist, that is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and pays close attention to detail. My experience is with a bad shoulder in which I had very little mobility and strength. Pain was severe. Dr. quickly came up with a plan to increase range of motion and strength. After a few visits I saw a noticeable difference and after a few weeks, I had regained almost all of the range of motion and pain reduced dramatically. Could not have asked for a better experience.

“Very Highly Recommended”

I am so happy that at least 4 other PT offices didn't get back to me. I found Total Recovery PT on Aetna after tons of great reviews. Dr. Zuckerman takes his time to make you feel comfortable, he explains the exercises and leaves you with the tools to be able to do them at home, and never makes you feel rushed. I highly recommend Dr. Zuckerman, Michelle, and Total Recovery PT to everyone.

“awesome”

I feel fully confident that the core of my issues are addressed and corrected. The knowledge and training really help me with my daily routine to stay pain free.

“Total Recovery - highly recommended!”

I would highly recommend Jack. Jack spends one on one time with his patients and takes time to listen and explain what is happening with the body. He is very knowledgeable and takes a holistic approach to treatment. His office staff is also amazing! Sasha does a great job helping with exercises! Michele hasn't worked on me personally, but I see her working with other patients and takes her time and really cares. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually have fun coming to PT!

“Genuinely caring PT”

This is the best physical therapy experience I've had. Jack carefully listens and his assessment made more sense than any other diagnoses I've received. I have felt stronger and gained flexibility in areas that I didn't realize were a source of my problems. I've even noticed a reduction in my stress level since beginning this therapy. I appreciate the creative solutions I've been presented with at Total Recovery PT.

“Experience with Total Recovery has been excellent”

My experience over approximately 3 years has been uniformly positive and helpful. The office is fully equipped and it's a pleasant atmosphere. The people are attentive and friendly.

“Highly Recommend!”

Great place. Jack knows his stuff and is a really nice guy. Good individual attention. Sasha is pretty awesome, too!

“Jack is very thorough with each treatment”

I feel very comfortable at this facility. Sasha is very friendly and Jack is very knowledgeable. Overall great experience

“Extremely knowledgeable and helpful in dealing with my pain.”

Jack has been working with me for 6 months and my pain has slowly been diminishing. He's given me exercises to perform at home and always follows up to make sure I am not in pain. He explains what the issues are and what I need to do to better my issues. He is very flexible with my schedule and always welcomes me bringing one of my kids to the office so I can work out my pain.

“Very good...Jack Zukerman and staff very attentive and friendly”

Very good--see above

“Menisci Rehab”

I have been coming to Dr Zuckerman twice a week for physical therapy to rehab my knee after surgery. He customized a program specific to my needs to build up muscle and stabilize my Knee. I highly recommend him for PT.

“I trust Dr. Zuckerman. He is very knowleable and caring. I have been to several different Physical therapists and I would rate Dr. Zuckerman in the top 2%!”

I came to Jack with chronic back pain and hip pain. He diagnosed me perfectly and helped me to become strong in my weak spots and he helped me to understand what i need to work on going forward. Also a wonderful caring staff!!! (ie Sasha)

“Great experience”

They really know what they are doing and I have noticed a big difference in my recovery here as opposed to other places

“Rotator cuff PT with Total Recovery was excellent”

I started PT within a week of surgery, from my first visit Jack and staff were very in tune with what I was going through. Took it easy on me at first but progressed me along with no pain. Dino and Michael were great also, I can't leave out Stephania and Syriah with the compliments. I was used to high traffic PT places with my kids so I wasnt' looking forward to PT. I quickly realized the benefits of the personalized experience Jack gives. I would highly recommend Total Recovery, even if it requires more travel than you planned on. No more high traffic PT joints for my family.

“Attentive, thorough, helpful, and personable”

All the staff (PTs and secretaries) were determined to see my improvement as a patient and increase my quality of life. I always felt like I was genuinely being listened to, rather than being spoken over as many health care professionals often have done in my experience. I am now leaving feeling healthier and stronger. Really great attitudes from all staff members. I'm appreciative of the work they've done for me.

“I couldn't have found a better PT!”

Hard working, caring, and motivated to get me well in a reasonably time frame. Going to miss coming here.

“Very attentive, knowlegable and accurate in treatment needed”

Healed my tendon avulsion very quickly. Faster than projected.

“Excellent!”

I'm happy that Dr. Z was able to help me. From the very first visit he knew what I needed and was able to get me back into shape and play soccer again. The atmosphere of the office is very professional and welcoming. I would not hesitate to come back if I need physical therapy again.

“Found a Great PT Practice!”

I was looking for a PT in the area and based on insurance recommendations and patient reviews I decided to give Dr. Jack a try and was not disappointed. He is very thorough, clearly explains your condition and the reason for recommended therapies. The environment is comfortable and friendly and I started to feel relief very quickly after starting my program.

“Thank you for making day-to-day activities painless again!!”

Jack and Dino really helped me get back on my feet (back) again. There is a remarkable improvement in my lower back pain from the day I started coming for therapy. Right from Session#1 to Session#25, I was paid attention to and Jack and Dino made sure that my physical therapy program is continuously updated and exercises are added to help my back gain strength. I am sincerely grateful for their help and support.

“Couldn't recommend highly enough”

I found Dr. Z when I switched my health insurance this year and was extremely glad I did. Compared to my last physical therapist, Dr. Z and his colleagues are very knowledgeable, gentle, and thorough. I have seen 2x the results in my progress compared to my visits with prior PTs. Not only does Total Recovery PT address your specific issues and concerns about your injury, but they also address other contributing factors like posture, exercising, sleeping positions, etc. Highly recommend!

“Great care by a thoughtful therapist!”

Jack is a great therapist, willing to spend time listening and explaining, and really cares about your recovery. I'm recovering from an injury that required surgery, and will be coming here for quite some time. I'm confident that I picked the right place to come to get back to 100%.

“Excellent therapst”

Me and my 2 children have been seeing Jack for several weeks now and we couldn't be more satisfied with all aspects of the therapy. Having back problems almost all my adult life I have seen many therapists in several countries but still Jack's approach, extensive knowledge and skills impress me. He works with my children too and we are very happy with the progress. Their sessions are well designed and executed and - as additional bonus - my children really enjoy Jack's warm and kind personality.

“Lucky to have found this excellent Physical Therapy office”

Dr. Zuckerman and Dr. Dino have done a great job helping me regain my ability to walk after a broken leg. I felt the difference immediately, and have been steadily progressing. Their assistant, Sasha, navigated my insurance and it was easy and seamless. Everyone is friendly, caring, and helpful.

“Great Experience”

Knowledgeable staff, clean office, positive environment, and measurable improvement for my shoulder.

“Great PT experience !!”

After just a few visits, I have noticed a significant reduction of pain and vastly improved mobility.

“Excellent Experience”

Doctor Zuckerman and his team are dedicated to getting patients enjoying a pain free life again.
Jack quickly assessed my issues and provided successful solutions and sound advice on how to eliminate the pain and regain full mobility. I highly recommend Total Recovery PT.

“Great experience and really helped with my pain”

What a great place! I'd come here every day if I could. I came to Total Recovery PT for neck and mid-back pain. Dr. Zuckerman was so knowledgeable and patient and seemed to know exactly where and why I was having the pain. Sasha the office and PT assistant is great and always there to provide a good laugh. And Stefania is a great addition to the office. If I need additional PT, this is where I will come.

“Loved the PT experience”

I feel so much better after working with Dr. Zuckerman and I really learned a lot about my body. Whenever I had a question he took the time to explain.

“impressive therapist”

nice people, very intelligent and very attentive. Jack and his team make the experience very comfortable which is important when trying to rehab. i look forward to coming to my appointments.

“Selena Caraballo's experience”

I loved coming here. they pay attention to every patient and listen to any questions or concerns someone has. They are very welcoming and you always leave in a good mood. Jack has helped me a lot and I would highly recommend him for help.

“Overall excellent care!”

If I ever need physical therapy again I would not hesitate in coming back to Dr. Jack at Total Recovery! I am very satisfied with my experience.

“Highly Recommended!”

I have always had problem with both my knees and after failed attempts with therapist I found Dr. Z. He took the time to explain why I keep having injuries and how to prevent it from happening. I like that he is always trying new things and showing you exercises to help with your recovery. I would highly recommend him!

“5 star”

great job

“A great experience at TRPT”

I came to Dr. Z after a wrist injury from dance and I was in a brace for about 2-3 months. Treatment was intense but Dr. Z made it fun. After 3 months of PT with Dr. Z, yesterday for one of my dance classes we had a push up competition and I was able to participate when about a little more than a month ago, I wasn't able to put any weight on my wrist. Dr. Z is awesome and I had a great experience at Total Recovery PT.

“Personalized PT”

Total Recovery offers PT that is tailored to each patient's issue. its not a cookie cutter place where the therapist works with you for a total of 5 min and then you are off on your own to do exercises. Jack works with each patient individually even when doing exercises.

“Great PT”

Dr. Jack Zuckerman takes a whole body approach rather than just looking at one aspect of health. I have learned a lot about body mechanics and how muscles work together - or not. He also has a pleasant personality that makes even tough workouts okay. I feel like he's a caring, intelligent practictioner.

“physical therapy for a spiral fracture to the tibia”

My son broke his leg in a football. He spent 3 months in a cast (two of which were a full leg cast) and had much atrophy to his leg. Dr. Jack recommended a program and home exercises. A couple months later, we had a fully functional and healed leg. We are ready for the next season of sports. Thank you so much!!

“Remarkable recovery through the care of Dr. Zuckerman's practice”

Truly remarkable. After hip surgery, I was healing well; then I comprised my healing by rolling my opposing ankle. Because of that injury, I was unable to turn over in bed or get in and out of the car without significant pain. Dr. Z worked on my hip flexors and muscles, through exercises and stretches. Now, after working with Dr. Z and Sasha (his assistant), I can say that I have little to no pain! They listen and provide one-on-one attention. Begin your healing journey with Total Recovery PT!

“An informative and wonderful experience”

Dr. Zuckerman took the time to explain my cervical problems. His healing hands and the exercises given to me during my physical therapy sessions were spot on.

“Great experience!”

Dr. Z is a very humorous and intelligent therapist that cares about your recovery and works with you to accomplish your goals.
His secretary/assistant is very attentive as well
