I can’t say enough about Dr Christine!! I have had back pains forever and tried many plans, medicine, injections, etc. Physical therapy was offered and I am so grateful that it was. It helped where nothing else would. Christine was not only professional but encouraging, positive, and super friendly during the time spent there. She treated me with respect, listened to whatever I needed and was always kind and thoughtful. Highly recommend for any PT needed.

One would expect this level of care at a concierge practice, but this is not a concierge practice—and yet the care we received exceeded all expectations. When we first called Dr. Yanamadula’s office, we were so scared. From the moment I spoke with his Practice Liaison, the incredible and compassionate Merina, we felt immense relief. As a mother calling from another state on behalf of my child, who was suffering from debilitating concussion pain, I cannot overstate what a blessing Dr. Yanamadula and his team have been. Our child was facing a three-month wait to see a pain specialist in Philadelphia, but Dr. Yanamadula’s office was able to schedule an appointment immediately. Merina and Dr. Yanamadula not only addressed every question with kindness and patience but also guided us through the complexities of worker’s compensation. The level of care they provided is nearly impossible to find these days. Our child was so incapacitated that we feared he might lose his job and have to forgo graduate school. Thanks to Dr. Yanamadula, he is now able to pursue both. Dr. Yanamadula and Merina, thank you for giving our son his life back and alleviating his pain. We will forever be grateful.

Dr. Savela provided exceptional care to me during my physical therapy sessions. She provided scheduling to accommodate my work schedule. The one on one approach made sessions more productive with no down time between activities. I would definitely not hesitate to contact her in the future.

Marina 10/10 Dr. Yanamadula 10/10 Christine 10/10 This place is great. Could not recommend it anymore for anyone with any back/spine pain or PT with Christine. It’s genuinely an enjoyable experience every time I visit and I can attest to going from an 8-9 on a pain scale to a 0. Every person as a part of this office is so kind and helpful it made my experience absolutely amazing. 10/10 would recommend you give them a visit.

I have had lumbar stenosis for many years and no effort was made to relieve the pain other than medication UNTIL I met Dr Yanamadula. I have received a good amount of pain relief with injections and procedures. I am so grateful to have found him.

I contacted Dr Yanamadula's office concerning my father. He had recently suffered a very severe episode of shingles in his eye and on his head. The pain had totally debilitated him. Dr Yanamadula tried several different approaches from medication to a nerve block to capazacin treatments until my Dad finally got relief. He is definitely a problem solver and very innovative. At 84 years old , Dad is back to doing the things he loves best. driving, doing his yard work and watching football.

Over the years I have been to chiropractors, physical therapy, orthopedic MD's. acupuncture, and other pain mgt doctors. More than one of each. Nothing seemed to help long term, until I found Dr. Yanamadula. Kind, considerate, and caring, he reduced my back pain by 95%, and many days I have no pain at all. He and his entire staff are outstanding in every way.

I would recommend patients with pain to see Dr. Yanamadula. Don't hesitate to call Dr. Y. for an appointment because you will not be disappointed. The staff, from the minute you walk in the door to the minute you leave are so professional and caring. They so much to call after your appointments to see how you are making out. Even after Dr. Y. gives you your first shot for your back or knees the girls in the office will follow up pretty quickly to see how you are doing. The quality of care from Dr. Y. and Christine was remarkable. I recommend Dr. Yanamadula and Christine at any given time for pain management needs.

Almost 19 years ago I had a double organ transplant, and before that I had a major cancer surgery too. My point is I'm familiar with medical treatments and healthcare practices. I also worked in behavioral healthcare before I received the liver and kidney transplants from an infection that went septic. Of all the Doctors and medical practices I've been to I'd have to put Dr. Yanamadula and everyone at his practice at the top of the list. Everything they do, they do right. Dr. Yanamadula has made it possible for me to continue to live my life and do things that I truly love doing and didn't think I'd be able to keep on doing. Everyone in the practice is a true example in how they treat patients of how it should be. I am so glad I found them, the fear of my spinal and nerve pain is no longer terrifying me because I know I have a team ready to help me and get me moving again. These people are the BEST !

I was diagnosed with several spinal issues, spinal stenosis, bulging disc, osteopenia, and to top it off, muscle spasms. The biggest problem is the muscle spams and I was given several choices to treat my condition. Physical therapy was my preference and it was excellent. I must say that the whole staff at PPSI made my experience extremely pleasant. Not only are the doctors approach to treatment explained from a to z, in terms that you can understand, the follow through is spot on. I highly recommend this practice.
