"Dr. Val has given me the gift of hope and belief. As a lifelong athlete, I have had major chronic injuries. I had always tried to ignore them and work around them in my sports and when that was not possible, for example with running, I just gave up. After a year of working with her on my knee, which I had total reconstruction on in 1995, I can finally run long distances again."
"I worked with Brian,who was amazing! Super nice guy, super knowledgeable and listens to you. He always has great explanation as to why a certain thing feels a certain way and why. I told him about my hockey/golf issues and tightness in hips, calves and upper back stuff... we addressed it and put a plan in place to not just treat it but strengthen it and get the muscles and systems firing again in the correct way."
"While at Valor, Brian adjusted my program to overcome this plateau (which we did within two weeks) and has gone above and beyond with other rehab methods that was not offered at [other PT clinic]. The work they do at Valor reminds me of the same care I received during my time playing collegiate basketball. This immediately made me feel comfort in knowing my rehab is in good hands."

“I saw Val for my patellar tendinitis. During my first session with Val for an evaluation, she asked me what I wanted to achieve since I work out regularly. I told her I wanted to become stronger, more flexible, and have better mobility. This personalized approach immediately stood out to me and set the tone for the rest of the sessions.
Now, having completed the sessions, I can confidently say that my experience with Val has been incredibly positive. Val’s expertise and dedication to my progress were evident from the very beginning. Not only did she possess a deep understanding of my condition, but she also tailored each session to address my specific needs and challenges.
Throughout the sessions, Val’s guidance and support were invaluable. She patiently explained each exercise and its purpose, ensuring that I not only performed them correctly but also understood their impact on my recovery. This not only boosted my confidence but also kept me motivated to consistently engage in the exercises between sessions.
What truly set Val apart was her ability to create a comfortable and encouraging environment. Her positive attitude and genuine interest in my progress made the sessions not only productive but also enjoyable.”

“I fell a few months ago and damaged my rotator cuff. The good news was I didn’t need surgery. But I was instructed to see a physical therapist and I was fortunate to meet Valentine (Val) Ngo.
Val asked about my goals (to play golf again), organized a treatment plan consisting of twice weekly, one-hour sessions, and targeted specific exercises to help me achieve my goal. Each session consisted of manual therapy and exercises. The plan was designed to gradually improve my shoulder mobility and muscular strength.
During the time I was in PT, I saw great improvement in shoulder mobility and muscular strength and began playing golf again without pain. In addition, she helped me construct an ongoing exercise plan that I can do at home to ensure the improvements continue.
Val was always very professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. She was sensitive to any physical issues I had prior to the session and used our meeting to address them. If I ever need physical therapy again, I would definitely work with Val again.”

“Dr. Val is an amazing physical therapist and friend. I tore my ACL, and she designed a comprehensive recovery plan that took into consideration my sport, my athletic level and my overall goals for a timeline to be back to 100%. I’ve been able to return to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I don’t have to think about my knee anymore. I would recommend her for not only injury recovery, but for general injury prevention and sport-specific maintenance.”
