EXCELLENTBased on 35 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Stephan Burgeson2024-09-27I am a physician in private practice and am always searching for great specialists to help care for my patients medical issues. I decided to “try out” Brian to see if he would be a good fit for my patients. I have had a chronic back condition/pain that I as an internist was unable to work out for myself. Brian’s skills of listening, examining, and treating far exceeded my expectations…and I expected a lot! Within the first hour appointment he diagnosed, treated, and set me on a more healthy and less painful path for my future. Thoughtful, pragmatic and caring. Because he is independent and not billing insurance, he unencumbered by the documentation hassle, and ALL the the time was spent on me and helping me understand and work on my problem. I have already referred three of my patients to Brian…he is a good find!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jaime Harris2024-09-26LAB Sports Therapy in St. Paul is currently helping my twin daughters, both athletes, recover from ACL injuries. Brian provides individualized care, focusing on their specific knee pain and athletic goals. We’re seeing great progress, and I highly recommend for any athlete needing expert, personalized rehab!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Abdalla Shabibi2024-09-23I came in with some severe shoulder pain and Brian was able to diagnose and give me a program. Now my pain is gone and my mobility is even better than before.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Alioune Badara J. Ba2024-09-11Great training. Brian Ishola helped me rehab torn ACL and meniscus when struggled getting better with other institutions.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Lucie Turcotte2024-09-03Dr. Ishola is excellent! He has been working with my daughter for the last several months, focusing on knee and elbow strengthening after injuries/surgeries. She participates in track and gymnastics and he has been so helpful in keeping her active and strong. We've been most impressed by the following things: he is proactive--he reached out to her surgeon pre-op to make sure he formulated the best post-op rehab plan; he has helped adjust her training plans in each sport to prevent overuse/further injury; and he is really personable and connects well with her--she enjoys working with him and trusts him. Great sports PT--would highly recommend!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Eddie Faulkner2024-08-24Dr. Brian is fantastic!!! My daughter is a competitive gymnast, and we were looking for PT options to help with her nagging hip flexor. After just a few sessions, she has had significant pain relief. I highly recommend Dr. Brian if you are looking for PT options.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Lisa Misch2024-08-19I very happily recommend Brian Ishola to anyone who is ready to put pain or an injury behind them and get back to the activities they love to do. Brian was quickly able to assess my shoulder pain and in over just a few weeks helped get me back to where I wanted to be. I especially appreciated Brian's knowledge, constant encouragement, and ability to provide just enough challenge to keep progress moving quickly.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Nina Rose2024-08-12I’ve been working with Brian in my recovery from ACL reconstruction surgery, and he’s the provider you want. He’s knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated, and he proactively follows up with you after appointments with other providers. He’s invested in your recovery, and it shows. No notes!
