"I had extreme lower back pain and sciatica. Once the pain began, I immediately contacted Youstina for her advice. She truly went above and beyond in working with me. Youstina showed dedication in asking continuous questions until she was able to figure out what was the initial trigger of the pain. Within just a few check ups with Dr. Gerges, I had already been feeling better. Her strength in her work is exemplified in her eagerness to help others in love.”

"Dr. Gerges was able to help my mom in just a few sessions. I have been to many physical therapy offices and none of them gave individualized attention. The personalized care and attention to details in the 1 hour 1-1 session makes all the difference. Highly recommend !"

“I had back pain for almost 13 years and thought it would never go away. i have tried many physical therapy clinics but Rise Above has provided me with hope and lasting relief I received personal attention and never felt rushed. Dr.Gerges took her time to explain to me reason of my symptoms. She pays great attention to details which makes all the difference. Go to her, it was life changing for me.”

“Dr. Gerges is wonderful. She listened carefully to every single complaint about my body with patience and a smile on her face. She has great bed side manners and definitely knows what she’s talking about. I left knowing what kind of problem I have and how to fix it. She also gave me exercises to do at home. Will definitely be back!”

“Dr. Gerges is great!! I had really bad neck pain that caused horrible headaches. I went to many people who claimed they could help me, but I never felt like they cared. I felt like every doctor wanted to finish as fast possible so they could move on to their next patient. Dr. Gerges took her time with everything and even spent extra time explaining what she did and answering my questions. I will definitely be coming back!”
