I have been dealing with neck and hip pain for many years. Two sessions with Stephen and doing the exercises he gave me have made a remarkable difference. Highly recommend Stephen, he’s very thorough in explaining what causes most pain issues as well as helping you understand what you can do to help your self continue to feel better. Less

I can not recommend Retrieve Physical Therapy enough! I have been struggling with TMJ pain for over two years. With the help of Stephen, I am now pain free. He was able to give me the tools to help treat and prevent any future discomfort. Retrieve Physical Therapy Will be my first stop for any future therapy needs! Less

Was out of work for 4 months with a back injury. 3 months of workers comp sponsored Physical Therapy and I was getting a little better but felt like I would never be the same. 2 sessions with Steve and I was back to work and closer to my old self. Still performing the exercises to this day and my back problems are pretty much gone. When you work with Steve, you get 1 on 1 treatment for the duration of the session. Not getting juggled between 2-3 other patients. He sets the expectation that his movements will keep you from needing to keep coming back. He meets his high expectation and exceeded Mine. I operate my own business, so my cost of down time was much more than a few sessions at Retrieve PT. Less

I have had chronic back pain for the past seven years. During that time I have tried just about everything from PT sessions, massage therapy, acupuncture, and injections. Over time I have just gotten worse and have had to gradually increase the amount of pain medication I take. I started working with Stephen in February and since then I have realized real measurable progress. Stephen identified the root cause for my back issues and crafted a plan that addressed those issues directly. I now experience considerably less daily pain and have been able to reduce my pain medication by 70%. I have started to reintroduce activities that I had stopped due to my pain such as bike riding. I still have more progress to make but for the first time in years I am optimistic about my prospects. Less

I live a very active lifestyle doing all forms of exercise and performing physical tasks at work. I came to Retrieve to work through some pain and injuries that were holding me back from getting after it 100%. Stephen completed a detailed, thorough assessment and diagnosed the issues in a way that my primary care physician and chiropractor were not able to do. He then developed a structured recovery program which included photos. In a relatively short time, my injuries healed and I’m pain free again. I am very grateful to Stephen. He is caring, extremely knowledgeable, and professional. He, not my primary care physician, is now my first stop to deal with injuries and physical pain. I highly recommend Retrieve to anyone looking to recover from injury, relieve pain, or improve performance. Less

RA and MS sufferer here. There aren’t enough words to describe how awesome Dr. Steve at Retrieve PT is. I have been suffering with chronic pain for many, many years. I have done physical therapy before, 2-3 times per week for months on end. I was never able to really feel better or that I had any sort of control over my pain, not to mention the amount in wasted copays. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2020 and then, most recently, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in January of 2023, which explains my pain for the last 10+ years. I have dealt with severe nerve pain, horrific muscle spasms, joint instability and reduced range of motion in my spine and other joints. While my MS is lifelong and progressive, he has given me control back over my body. I am able to get ahead of pain and reduce it (sometimes even eliminate it). Just to have an overall improvement of 80-90% in my symptoms is huge for both my physical and mental health. I was able to gain this control over about 4 visits. Also, knowing that when my MS rears its ugly head and flares up (which it will), Steve is just a phone call/text away and able to help treat it, regardless of whether it is pain, spasticity or even the near paralysis I have had in my right leg in the past. I am grateful for his care and treatment. He is incredibly knowledgeable and he is able to apply that to make the most of your visits and meet your needs in the shortest amount of time. It also helps that his visits are entertaining! Whatever is ailing you, I highly recommend putting your care in Steve’s hands, you will not regret it. This has been life-altering for me!!! Less

I recently have had my son evaluated by Steve at Retrieve Physical Therapy for low back pain. I have to say I was very impressed with his thorough assessment and professionalism. As a primary care physician, I often refer patients to him with positive feedback from patients but never experienced his service firsthand. I was very impressed with the accuracy of assessment and most importantly very helpful specific therapeutic interventions which improved my son’s condition in a matter of days. If you want real results from a professional who is truly invested into your positive outcome, I highly recommended Steve. Less

I will try to make this as simple and effective as a single session with Dr. Steven Fose. -I always thought I had a “bad back”. -Through a small handful of PT sessions, Dr. Steve taught me otherwise. -I now have a more effective and pain-free body to carry me through this life than I ever imagined I’d be able to enjoy. Okay, maybe his sessions just FEEL that simple... More info: I am a 36 year old laborer, instructor, and craftsman. My body has seen all sorts of abuse from years of working with an expansive array of materials (industrial ceramics production, wood, stone, steel, concrete, etc.) as well as years of awful posture in classrooms and at desks. For the past 2 years I have been working out of Spencerport, NY with a hardscaping outfit, moving thousands of pounds of material a week manually as well as constantly operating heavy equipment, machinery, and tools in very difficult and sometimes extremely painful positions in order to leave behind beautiful, architecturally sound, natural-stone structures and features. I “threw out” my back. Do it all the time. Had grown to accept it as my twice-yearly payback for the way I work and abuse my body. It took me the usual 1-2 weeks to get back to work, wasting money and time to recover, lying around in the most awkward positions imaginable to try and ease the intense suffering in my low-back. Shortly after getting back to work, my employer set me up with Dr. Steve for some sessions to work on getting me back to full capacity and with the hope of reducing my likelihood of getting hurt and being out of work during our busiest times. Having had just 6 visits with Dr. Steve since then, I have long said goodbye to the low-back pain that I had accepted as a nagging constant in my life. It has been a simple and intensely informative experience to learn very basic movements and stretches prescribed specifically for getting me from where I was at to where I needed to be every step of the way. Dr. Fose is kind, respectful, and clearly has a desire to make his clients feel their absolute best. Afterward: Since starting with Retrieve Physical Therapy, I have experienced a couple of instances at work where I felt a painful tweak or strain that in the past would have set off every single one of my alert signals on full volume to stop what I’m doing and take the rest of the day off for fear of a half-month recovery. These days I don’t have to step away from work for a day or week(s) to simply survive pain. Instead, I need only step away from the tool, machine, or boulder for a moment to calmly execute one of a handful of simple movements that I’ve learned to keep me working and pain free before diving right back in to the hard work that I love. Workplace Injury Prevention at its finest. Less

Dr. Fose did an incredible job fixing my back pain. He gave me plenty of advice and continued to check up on me and provide more exercises even after my last appointment. If you have any sort of pain I could not recommend a better doctor to help you out than Dr.Fose Less

I went to Dr. Steve, after suffering with my back for several weeks. I went to the chiropractor, and it would help until I was back in my vehicle driving. Then, it would flare back up after a couple more weeks when I was in so much pain. I went to my doctor and was prescribed an anti-inflammatory med and a muscle relaxer. These helped as long as I was sitting at home. I finally broke down and made an appointment with Dr. Steve. After just 3 sessions with him, my back issue is now so much better and continues to get better every day. I followed his instructions on doing the exercises and still do them after sitting, during exercising and walking. Next time I have an issue, I'll just go straight to him instead of wasting money at the chiropractor and Dr's office. Less

Stephen Fose is far the best PT I have seen in years. I have been going to a good chiropractor for over 10 years for lower back pain. The chiropractor would fix my back for a couple months then I would be back to see him for the same thing. My lower back is almost completely gone and Stephen has given me stretches to do that reduce or eliminate that pain if it flairs up. Also my groin pain I have for last year is completely gone . Lastly Stephen is working on my knee pain and instability and we are almost there. I am jogging again and lifting 50 pounds. Something I thought I would never be able to do as a senior citizen. Stephen' s caring and energetic interactions make the 90 minute one on one visits fly by. If you do a package deal for the visits they are reasonably priced and HSA/FSA money can be used to pay for the visits. All in all the money I feel has been well spent because Stephen wants you to be your own PT eventually managing your own pain and conditioning and not seeing him continually year after year for the same issue. He has been a blessing to me!! Less

I saw Dr Steve with severe shoulder pain and stiffness. I am a hairstylist and thought, Oh no, I can't do a rotator cuff injury! (as a stylist, a long time off for healing can be devastating to my business) I wasn't sure where the pain was coming from. Steve and I had a consultation, and he was positive my issues were a neck and shoulder issue. He reassured me that he felt no rotator cuff issue after he analyzed me. After 4 visits, I'm happy to say I'm 85% better!!!! Less pain, and he gave me the info and tools i needed to help heal. He's fantastic! Less

I would highly recommend Retrieve Physical Therapy to anyone! A wide range of services, flexible schedule, and excellent results. I am currently training for a half marathon and Dr. Fose has been excellent in helping with injury prevention and intervening early if a certain area feels off. Great resource and wealth of knowledge! Less

I came to Stephen to relieve a chronic knee problem that I have had for years. Stephen was extremely helpful in relieving my knee pain. Throughout the three visits, he addressed spinal issues, which in turn relieved my knee pain. He provided specific stretching exercises to complete at home as well, which improved the flexibility and strength in my knee. I was surprised how quickly the pain subsided. I would highly recommend his services to anyone who has been dealing with pain issues and has not found relief. Less

Stephen began helping me in 2016 after a broken shoulder which healed beautifully! In 2018 I went back for assistance with chronic back issues. Again, simple exercises could "fix" everything. We moved to Florida several years ago. This year it just happened that the activities I was involved in for a couple of months required much sitting for long periods of time; not my best subject! Of course my back protested, but the standard exercises that always helped me get back on track did not seem to do the trick. To make a long story short, I reconnected with Stephen via the internet. We use telehealth visits which actually seem pretty much the same as being there in person! He listened & watched and suggested a couple of new exercises and put all of the information in a logical format via email so I can refer to it. It is truly amazing how blessed I am to have a person so willing to help. Even though he is a thousand miles away, Stephen can help in seconds!!!! Less

Steve helped me solve a lingering back pain issue in just a few weeks. After trying chiropractic care and rest, I wasn’t seeing any relief. I started working with Steve and by my 3rd appointment I saw significant improvement and was able to be active again. I love his approach to consider my entire body into the solution, and look forward to working on some chronic pain issues I’ve had my whole life! Less

Really great experience so far. Injured my neck/shoulder away at college and Dr Fose has made it easy to maintain my physical goals while improving my neck/shoulder. Less

My experience with Retreive Physical Therapy was amazing! Steve helped me to determine the causes of my issues and prescribed a therapy that had immediate results and got me back to normal activities. His positive attitude and ability to listen and incorporate my responses into my therapy was refreshing and motivating for me. I highly recommend them! Less

I had the pleasure meeting Stephen about a month ago when I was in horrible pain with a Pelvic floor disorder. He was recommended to me by my son Brett. My son told me that he helped him immensely with his sciatic back pain. I have to say I wasn’t sure if anyone could help me at this point since I had been in pain for more than 6 months. Well I was wrong!! Stephen was not only very knowledgeable about this disorder but he was also able to teach me exercises and stretching techniques that helped me immensely!! He helped relieve this horrible pain that I have been feeling for many many months! I drove an hour to see him once a week for an entire month and would do it again if needed!! He is truly one of the best Physical Therapist I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Thanks again Steve!! It was a pleasure working with you!! Less

I truly can’t recommend Stephen and Retrieve Physical Therapy enough!! I’m used to lower back that has come and gone over the last several years, but recently, I had hip pain that came about randomly and truly had no idea where it could have come from. Stephen took the time to do a fully comprehensive evaluation and didn’t stop until he was confident with the source of my pain and how he could treat it! His extensive knowledge of the musculoskeletal system truly shows in all the work he does. After doing the exercises and stretches he recommended, I felt significant relief from my hip pain and haven’t had it since! And even better, I now know how to help prevent it from popping up again in the future. Thank you so much, Stephen!! Less

I am so glad to have found Retrieve Physical Therapy! My problems include a stiff / sore neck associated with bending my head as a motion that occurs in my work...using a controller on a GPS unit. Dr. Stephen has taught me a wide variety of neck exercises that have helped me tremendously and have taken that pain away. I also have Celtic Hand (Dupuytren's Contracture) which is stiffening of the hand tendons. With the stretching exercises I am following from Dr. Stephen, my hands are just about normal now, and I will not have to undergo hand surgery. I am now going to Retrieve on a monthly basis to continue my exercises which now include kettlebell exercising....physical training 👍There is nobody that knows the human body (muscles, joints and skeletal) better than Stephen and I highly recommend him to anyone needing help....I plan on keeping monthly visits to Retrieve a regular part of my healthcare 😎!! Less

When I first had sciatica issues, I was referred to Stephen to do physical therapy with him. He told me that within four sessions he would have me walking without the cane. I started out with a walker, graduated to a cane and Stephen came through. By my third visit, I was without the cane and walking on my own. Stephen starts from the source of the problem. I had to do my exercises at home, but he showed me the proper way of doing them. He's very excited about what he does because he enjoys helping people. I enjoyed working with Stephen because he kept me positive. I highly recommend working with him. Less

After multiple weeks at a chain PT location in Rochester, I went to Steve for two sessions. After 2 sessions my pain was completely gone. Steve is extremely knowledgeable in his field and such a down to earth guy. If I ever need PT again, I will be coming here. Highly recommend coming here for faster results! Less

Highly recommend. I’ve had shoulder pain for years, had surgery, went to two different physical therapists with no real change. I was one session in, working on my shoulder and have had dramatically less pain. Still shocked on what he was able to do in an hour. Can’t wait to see the final results!! Less

At age 66, my arthritis was getting very painful, consuming my every thought through every movement. After 4 visits with Steve my pain level has decreased immensely, now I’m actually building strength. I’m so grateful to be living again, playing again and feeling so confident that I can do everything. Thank you Steve for my life long “pills”.😀 Less

Excellent physical therapy! As a RN I am always on my feet and using my body all day. I have been dealing with neck and back pain for a while. Steven helped me so much and now I can do exercises at home to help manage my pain. I love how he explained why each exercise is important and how to do them correctly, he is so smart and caring. 10/10 will recommend to other people! Less

I’m a dog groomer and am constantly putting my body in positions which cause me pain later. After years of on and off back pain I decided to see Dr. Fose. He listened to my problems and asked me a lot of questions to figure out what exactly would work best for my situation. I’ve been using the stretching exercises daily and have noticed a HUGE difference. Especially when my pain seems to be coming on I can keep it at bay with what he taught me. Steve is professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to talk to. I highly recommend Retrieve Physical Therapy if you are considering giving PT a try! Less

Came in to Retrieve a bit skeptical and with severe lower back pain. Being contractor this was a huge issue for me. Stephen assured me that this was a totally reversible issue and he would show me how to prevent it in the future. He wasn't kidding after the first visit I noticed improvement and by the 4th visit I was back to my old self . I would recommend him to anyone. Less

I've spent years fighting old and stubborn injuries, stiffness and pain. I've tried all sorts of methods to remedy, which inevitably resulted in temporary relief. Rinse and repeat. In working with, Dr. Fose, all that has changed. We collectively unpacked the true causes of my recurring symptoms. In our sessions, we'd develop a plan to address the problem effectively, which was not as easy as relaxing for a massage or chiropractic adjustment. Instead, Dr. Fose put the body to work with purposefully designed movements and prescriptive regiments that I can do anywhere, any time. The results have been perpetual correction. No longer treating a symptom for immediate, but temporary relief. The real magic has been a deeper understanding of cause and the empowerment to self-treat. If you're looking to address nagging physical challenges for good, as opposed to constantly trying to find the next quick/short fix, Dr. Fose is your guy. Sincerely, Former athlete and current dad who just wants to play golf Less

I have a full-time job that is very physically demanding and have suffered from herniated disc flare-ups and tightness in the neck and shoulders caused by repetitive work-related movements. I scheduled an on-site physical therapy evaluation with Dr. Steve and he met me at my place of work to observe firsthand the movements I go through during my daily work routine. He was able to immediately spot what was going wrong and recommend exercises to address each concern. Using the furniture and space in my own work environment, I was able to learn exercises and stretches and see how I can easily incorporate them into my workday. Since the on-site evaluation I have not had any flare-ups or excessive tightness! I make it a point to do my exercises several times a day and it really makes the difference. I just finished a very busy work season (2 months long) and felt amazing afterwards! That has never happened in the 14 years I've been working in this field. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the on-site evaluation was career-changing -- it has helped me to be able to continue working without pain even during the busiest times. I highly recommend an on-site evaluation if you are in any type of job that is physically demanding or involves repetitive movements. Dr. Steve also offers in-person and virtual appointments which makes it possible to meet with him despite any distance. I scheduled a virtual follow-up appointment and he was still able to observe movements and offer different exercises to continue to enhance my progress. I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Steve and Retrieve Physical Therapy! If you're experiencing any type of pain or limited motion, especially from work-related activities, an on-site evaluation WILL make the difference and allow you to live and work pain-free! Less

Ever since I recovered from a small knee surgery in 2014, I was having frequent instances of my knee locking up, or a feeling that something was not aligned properly. I came to see Steve only one time a couple of months ago, and after practicing just one simple stretch he showed me, my knee is basically 100%. I went from an almost daily inconvenience of losing knee stability, to have only experienced it two times in the past few months. I also feel more confident in what I’m physically able to do now that I have more trust in the stability of my knee. While I was there he also showed me another exercise I can do to loosen up my upper back to tackle a mobility issue I’ve had since college. Steve really takes time to explain and break everything down. I’d be confident in coming back to see him with any nagging issues I might have. Less

I was in rough shape, my lower back was in a ton of pain. Thankfully, Retrieve PT took me in on a last minute appointment. Steve taught me effective stretches, and explained why my body was reacting the way it was. His guidance has helped me prevent future injury, and I’m thankful for the knowledge he has passed on to me. Highly recommend! Less

My chronic back and hip issues were starting to impact my ability to walk and get in and out of vehicles. I’ve seen doctors and chiropractors that misdiagnosed my issues and were not able to help. Dr Fose quickly realized my underlying problem and started an immediate plan to eliminate my pain and restore movement. I simply can’t believe I am moving without pain and returned to hiking after just a few days of following his treatment plan! My family and I are forever grateful! Less

Came to Retrieve PT after months of nerve pain in my left arm. The facility was clean and professional. Dr. Fose assessed my situation and went through a series of tests to try and isolate the problem. He was able to diagnose the problem as an issue with my neck, which I was not expecting. After taking some measurements in neck mobility and flexibility, he showed me a series of neck stretches to try and free up the limited range of motion I was experiencing. The stretches were uncomfortable at first but after only a few days the pain in my arm has dissipated and my neck felt better than it ever has. I continue to do the stretches daily. What I found I liked most about the experience was the manner by which Dr. Fose explains the situation, walks you though the process and gives you the tools you keep yourself in good shape long after you have your final appointment. Having been through PT before, this was a better experience. Less

I’m a busy baker so Dr. Fose was able to come to my work to do an evaluation of my issues. It was so convenient. Steve was able to watch me complete physical work tasks and gave me multiple exercises to implement using equipment at my workplace. Within a few days of doing the exercises consistently I’m in awe that I haven’t had the issues with tingling in my hands come back up! Highly recommend the worksite evaluation! Less

Steven showed me in a 30 minute session how to relieve my chronic back pain that I have had for 40 years due to a work injury. Best investment I have made. Thanks Steven!! Less

I love that Steve works one on one with you, giving his full and complete attention. He truly wants to help you help yourself by getting to the root cause of your pain and showing ways to work on it. It is your responsibility to do the exercises to heal yourself. Steve is thorough and always available to follow up if you have questions or concerns. Highly recommend him! Less

Dr. Fose was professional, accommodating and incredibly helpful/knowledgeable! He was able to provide appointment times that worked with my schedule and was able to improvise during Telehealth appointments to meet the needs of my space. As a health care professional myself I will comfortably recommend him to patients, family and friends! A true asset for our community! Less

I spent a year and a half working on a chronically locked S.I. Joint. About a month of working with Stephen at Retrieve PT solved the problem. I was very frustrated and discouraged because I had seen other professionals and spent a lot of money on the issue. I can’t say enough about how knowledgeable and helpful Stephen has been. I only wish I had done this sooner. Less

Stephen was a great help to me when I started having back pain related to poor posture while working from home at the start of the pandemic. He was able to do a thorough evaluation virtually, get to the root of the problem, and teach me ways to address the issue on my own at home. I felt better and had NO pain after learning strategies for self joint mobilization. Stephen also followed up to make sure things were going in the right direction. Highly recommend Stephen as a physical therapist- he is innovative, professional and compassionate and overall has a fantastic personality. Less

Stephen was great! Highly recommended. My nerve pain is 100 percent gone. c6-c7 nerve pain down right arm. Very thorough and great to work with. First surgeon said shots + cervical fusion. Glad i didnt listen to surgeon. No shots and no pain currently. Patience was key with nerve pain. I will recommend him to friends and family! Thanks again Less

Stephen took me from an 8 out of 10 for discomfort and pain to a 3 or 4 in 24 hours as a result of one session and workin on the exercises. I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone experiencing acute or chronic back pain. Less

I was having on and off back pains for five years due to work. So I contacted Steave to see what he could do for me he was at my house within the hour which was really convenient because I could barely walk. He was very professional It makes you feel very comfortable about the situation he spent about an hour with me and I felt about 80% better I feel like after my next appointment with him I will be back to 100% my whole business depends on my back so I can’t appreciate what you did for me enough you come highly recommended from me and I will be using you again in the future Less

Dr. Fose helped me fully heal my lower back from a sports related injury and I have never felt better. He did not prescribe any unnecessary procedures and kept it simple. Also, he was extremely personable and got to know me which was amazing. This allowed for me to have a great experience during our meetings while he diagnosed certain stretches and strengthening exercises to do. I would 100% recommend. Less

Dr Fose helped me with an ongoing issue with my elbow that wouldn’t go away. The entire process was smooth and easy from booking the appointments to doing therapy with him through video. Not only did he help me fix the issue but he explained what factors could cause it. In the future if I had any other issues I would absolutely seek out Dr Fose to help again. Less

I blew out two discs severely and one of them pinched a nerve which had me stuck in a huntched over position for over a month. Living on the floor, crawling around and not sleeping while in unbelievable pain for so long made me think I had messed myself up for life. I went to two different highly rated chiropractors during this time and both basically did things for me to make me feel good for the time being and when they ran out of options. I was told that my only options were surgery and cortisone shots. So by chance I met Dr.Fose and just from a small conversation without showing him any medical records he was able to diagnose my problem and give me some advice on how to get better. I started seeing results almost instantly and kept getting better, so I decided to go for sessions,for more one on one help. Dr. Fose taught me how to countiue to self manage my problem so when ever it would act up I knew what I had to do to get better. Now I’m back to normal I’m able to run, be active like I was before I injured myself. Thank you Steve! Less

Cutting edge, intelligent, open minded, and effective. Retrieve Physical Therapy is not cookie cutter physical therapy. Steve takes the time not just to treat you, but also give you have a knowledge and tools to stay pain free for years to come. This is not about getting on a recurring schedule of treatments. Steve wants you to be able to treat yourself and stay pain free for life! I will 100% be recommending Retrieve PT as the go-to service for preventative and rehabilitation care. 13/10 Stars (From a Strength and Conditioning Coach) Less

Stephen provided exceptional services on teleheatlh! It's easy to be skeptical when you've always had in person services, but it was worth a try since in person PT/chiro had still left me with chronic low back pain. With Stephen's help after a recent injury, I immediately noticed a decrease in pain, and within 3-4 weeks I was nearly back to 100%- including a very physical job, and chasing after my toddler. More importantly, Stephen understood how crucial it was to break my cycle of chronic pain, and gave me easy strategies to self-treat before pain interferes with my life. Stephen's PT services were invaluable to me!! Less

I saw Dr Fose for my back pain and couldn’t be happier with the results and my choice of doctor. My back pain was limiting my daily workload and I had constant pain and discomfort. After the first telemed appointment my mind was put at ease as I was left with a slew of information about my injury and how to fix it. I could tell Dr Fose really cared about his career and helping people. At the time of next telemed appointment, just one week later my back pain had almost completely subsided. We went over everything - my results, what worked best, what the next steps were and preventative steps to use in the future. I continue to use the tools and information Dr Fose has given me and I’m still back pain free. I chose Dr Fose, and will continue to do so because of his knowledge, attention to detail and bedside manner. Thanks Dr Fose! Less

Working with Steve on teletherapy was wonderful! I was skeptical about not going in person, but he was able to help my upper back and neck pain tremendously within a few weeks. I highly recommend his PT practice. Less

This guy knows his stuff. I have used Dr Steve for a few years. I’m pretty active so I get dinged up quite a bit. Dr Steve is always there to help and get me back to where I need to be. You can tell he truly wants you to get better. He looks at his patients like people and not a number. Thanks DR Steve! Less

Stephen is amazing! I hurt my low back a few weeks ago and couldn’t find a PT in my city (Syracuse) that was open or offered a telehealth option. A mutual friend who is also a PT suggested reaching out to Stephen because of his telehealth option. It was an amazing experience to be able to see a PT virtually! It was like I was in the office, he took my history, did base line movements, and prescribed exercises. After each appointment I got a link with my prescribed movements along with pictures on how to do them and more recommendations. My issue has completely resolved and I feel fantastic. Stephen is passionate, knowledgeable, and great at explaining things. You can tell his main focus is ensuring his patients get better and hopefully won’t come back to him for the same issue. I can not recommend enough!! Even though I’m in Syracuse, I will always use Stephen as my PT. If you’re hurting now and can’t get to a PT, call Stephen to set up your virtual appointment today!! Less

Wow! What an experience! I was new to "telemedicine" and wasn't quite sure what to expect; but with today's busy lifestyles & schedules, I quickly found it to be the perfect, amazingly convenient way to go. I was suffering from hip pain, which was preventing me from running and working out the way I wanted to. Scheduling an appointment with Stephen was the BEST thing I ever did! AND, I didn't even have to leave my house! He won me over with his professional and kind demeanor. He took his time with me and quickly diagnosed my issue. After giving me some "homework" to do, I am happy and relieved to report that my hip pain is gone! What I also loved was the follow up that Dr. Fose did; checking in on me to see how I was progressing and to see if I had any questions or issues. Life is short and we don't have time to live it in pain and discomfort. I can't say enough about my experience with Retrieve Physical Therapy and Dr. Fose. I'm back to living life on my terms (apin-free) and I still can't get over the convenience of it all! Telemedicine is definitely the way to go! Thanks so much, Stephen! Less
