Lucas is worth his weight in gold!! After a TKR, I started my rehab at a (different) major NJ hospital and I was not doing well. I made some progress but I had plateaued.
On a recommendation, I started seeing Lucas 6 weeks post surgery and I could feel the difference right away. He is an amazing therapist – knowledgeable, caring, and super helpful! I truly owe my recovery to him.
I would like to add a word of gratitude to Kaya. She is the silent type and she is most kind, helpful, and super-efficient.

I’m a 71-year-old male who has dealt with a lower back problem for about 15 years. I worked predominantly with Ryan Kay Ryan led me through a program of stretching and core strengthening over about 8 visits. I found him to be very personable and knowledgeable. He and his colleagues were very motivating. His program has worked extremely well and I am feeling much better than when I started about six weeks ago. I recently injured my shoulder and will be returning to UOA for more therapy soon. I look forward to another great experience.

Lucas, I had a wonderful experience working with you during my ACL recovery. From the very beginning, he was patient, knowledgeable and encouraging. He took the time to explain the exercises clearly and always made sure I was comfortable while gradually pushing me to improve. Even during my home exercises when it felt like I cannot do this, his words from previous sessions pushed me further. Now my life feels easier again after a long battle.
I really appreciated his professionalism and the positive attitude he brought to every session. I’ve made great progress during my time with him, and I’m very grateful for all the support and guidance he provided throughout my recovery.
I would highly recommend Lucas to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and dedicated physical therapist. Lucas, I told you on the very first session that you are the best and I would say that any day without a doubt. Thank you, Lucas, for everything.
Thank you again to the wonderful caring PT team at UOA. This time I was there for my foot /ankle. Anne and Dante helped me on the road to regain my strength and also made my pain go away. UOA is the best!!

Lucas Suydam is an exceptional physical therapist. His expertise, personalized approach, and effective treatment techniques significantly improved my quality of life and helped me avoid surgery. Throughout my recovery, he was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in my progress. I am incredibly grateful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone seeking outstanding physical therapy.
Following my total knee replacement, I was fortunate to have Anne Inacay and Megan Kress as my physical therapists throughout my recovery. Their expertise, encouragement, and personalized approach gave me the confidence to push through each stage of rehabilitation. They always knew when to challenge me and went to reassure me, making what could have been a difficult process a very positive experience.
I also want to recognize the outstanding support staff who helped me each week, kept everything running smoothly, and always made me feel welcome. Their kindness and professionalism were an important part of my recovery.
Thanks to the entire team at University Orthopaedic Associates and the Center for Rehabilitation and Sports Excellence. I had an excellent outcome and have returned to my normal daily activities. I am truly grateful for the care, dedication, and compassion. Everyone showed me. I would recommend this team without hesitation to anyone beginning their own rehab rehabilitation journey.

My physical therapy sessions in Woodbridge were very helpful in keeping in mind my hip issue. The sessions were very well organized and done on a timely basis.
Karin, Megan, and all the other staff are extremely nice and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend this Somerset location. I just had surgery done on my lower leg, and I couldn’t be happier with the results I got from working with the team!
