"I love training at Premier! Keith’s knowledge, experience, and creativity with all ages and body types combined with his easy going and encouraging personality are the perfect combination for building confidence, achieving your goals, and actually enjoying a workout! The community atmosphere and collaboration with other staff in a clean and naturally bright space is also a welcome departure from the traditional gym setting! If you are considering offering yourself the gift of health, I thoroughly recommend partnering with the team at Premier."

"5 stars aren't enough. For the past 11 months, I've been working-out with Zach. The experience has been outstanding! As a "has-been" athlete, I've struggled to find the right rhythm for exercise. Since working-out with Zach, I feel tons better, physically and mentally. I've dropped weight. I've dropped two medications. I'm eating better. And, it all began with encouragement and accountability from the tremendous training team of Zach, Keith and Mary Vaughan. A huge key for me is that I haven't gotten injured. Traditionally, left to my own devices, I would work-out inconsistently, or do something dumb, or "over do it" and then get hurt. Then, I'd spend more time/$ in therapy and lose momentum. With Zach's expert process and attention to detail, he helped me build a base, stretch, hydrate, eat right... and not get injured. I've really enjoyed the camaraderie of twice a week work-outs in addition to the Saturday boot-camps. The process is flexible and catered to my needs. The work-outs are scripted and purposeful and safe but also push me to levels I wouldn't reach on my own. I often feel sore (a good sore) but my normal aches and pains of the last 15 years are gone. If you're looking for an elite place to exercise, look no further."

"I had a specific goal that i wanted to accomplish with lifting weights, but had struggled to get it done in the past. Was recommended to Premier PT, and met with Keith. He has an encouraging and detailed style, and I never miss a workout with him. Hit the goal in 3 months flat, and now we've created a few new ones to go after. Strongest I've ever been. I definitely recommend these guys."

"After a lifetime of severe lower back pain, leading to a weak core and finally, a torn hip labrum, I ended up nearly bedridden for 3 months. I needed PT and my own research led me to Premier. I drove over & was immediately impressed with everything as Morgan showed me around. I am not a "gym" kind of person. Premier felt 100% professional, but minus that intimidating "gym" and/or clinical kind of feeling that most PT facilities have. I had the pleasure of being treated by Mikayla for 6 months. She is an amazing physical therapist who really works closely with you, carefully helping to manage your pain level and progress. Although I was dealing with a lot of other things along with my pain, and often feeling quite down, Mikayla greeted me with a warm smile and a joyful disposition and heart every single time. She was very understanding and encouraging throughout. Though there were times I doubted my progress, which has been admittedly slow due to the nature of my issues and challenges, there was incredble progress. I went from being unable to walk 300 feet to walking a mile daily. I was initially struggling to do stairs. 5 months in and I was able to attend a concert where I not only stood for 6+ hours but I was actually able to climb up onto the stage with the artist when invited to do so. Goal achieved! Every person I encountered at Premier was always cheerful and friendly. Huge shout out to Mikayla, Morgan, Mark, Shelby & Victoria (as well as all of you other great people who I did not personally work with, but smiled and said hello to me. It mattered.) I still have work to do on my own, but I now understand what I need to do and how I need to do it. If you need PT, you need look no further. Our community is blessed to have Premier Physical Theapy of the Upstate."

"I first saw Keith in early February. We did a initial assessment that pointed out numerous areas where I lacked the mobility and strength I needed for my golf swing. Keith gave me a program that I followed religiously and I brought my tpi handicap from a 27 down to a 11 in about 7 weeks. He then gave me a strength workout along with some mobility work to target the areas I am still lacking in. My body feels better than ever. I’m moving with much more flow throughout my swing and I no longer feel tight after practicing or playing golf. I’m hitting the ball the longest I have in a long time. Keith is also as good as it gets when it comes to responding to any questions I have about exercises. He gives me long thoughtful answers that clear up any questions I have. I would highly recommend him."

"Ryan has been working with me to strengthen my left leg that was weakened due to a leg break. The progress is slow but there is still progress and that gives me hope I will be able to regain strength and be able to function more normally. I am presently using a walker but hope to move to being able to use a cane. My difficulties stem from a TBI sustained in a very bad car accident where I came close to death."

From the moment I step through the door, I'm greeted by the cheerful and warm smiles of Sara and Caylie, who never fail to brighten my day and the days of everyone else around. Punctuality is something I highly value, and Premier Physical Therapy consistently impressed me with their readiness for my appointments. It's clear that my care was their top priority, and that means the world to me. I had the pleasure of originally working with Mikayla prior to surgery and she shown great care and only shown the highest form of professionalism while I was working with her. Kasey, my therapist after surgery, was a true professional who listened attentively to my concerns and issues. Together, we worked towards my goals, and I have seen much improvement since starting to work with her. Having been to multiple other physical therapy places for various treatments, I can confidently say that Premier Physical Therapy stands head and shoulders above the rest. If you're seeking top-notch therapy and phenomenal care, look no further than Premier Physical Therapy. They've earned my highest recommendation, and I'm grateful for the exceptional work they do!"

"At 70 plus, I began having stiffness and what felt like inflammation in my left knee. I had lost the ability to squat without considerable pain. I had heard from a grandchild that he had visited Premier to get help recuperating from a back injury. He and his mom recommended it. My first visit was to get a baseline and measurements related to my current knee condition. I felt more confident that physical therapy could help without increasing the injury. Ryan and Dan put me through some activities that demonstrated methods I could use to strengthen the muscles that influenced the health of my knee as well as other parts of my body. I go into Premier asking myself, "what more could they demonstrate, show me or help me learn", and each time they add more to my knowledge and ways I can improve my condition."

"I have worked with Mark Murphy off and on over several years seeking relief on different occasions from back pain, lack of hip mobility and a shoulder issue. I'm always amazed at how quickly Mark can zero in to the source of my pain by simply having me perform a few motions. He has then, over several sessions, developed a series of home exercises for me to strengthen, stretch or learn to relax the targeted muscles. I've always had relief from my pain and/or increased my mobility after working with him. Mark is totally professional but also warm and caring. He's dedicated to finding a solution that meets your goals whether easier performance of activities in daily life or returning to sports competition. I will always return to Premier Physical Therapy if the need arises."

"Prior to my going PPT I did’t seem to be gaining on the problem I was having which was being sore and stiff after every session. As it turned out my form was all wrong and I was failing to engage the proper muscles to do the exercises I wanted and needed to do in order to continue with the level of activity I was once used to. The instructions given to me by Mikayla as well as the proper form I believe will keep me on the correct track physically. I know I feel better everyday and I rest better. Good job Mikayla"

"My experience with Premier Physical Therapy was extreme positive! All of the staff very good and supportive in my recovery process. I found Mikayla Roberts to be very talented and focused while helping me cover to my pre injury condition. Mikayla was the best I have seen in terms of diagnosing my PT needs, based on my injuries, and developing remediation exercises. Her interaction style made my time there fun while we focused on my rehabilitation. Her talent and attitude are a extremely strong combination. Thanks again,"

"Mark did a fantastic job of evaluating each muscle groups on the left & right side of my body and figured out which groups were weak. He showed how these muscles work in tandem to support walking and explained how other muscles pick up the slack to make up for the weaker muscles - thereby causing pain. He then prescribed physical therapy targeting those muscles groups and monitored progress over several sessions. I am able to walk pain free for over 10,000 steps a day now. I highly recommend Premier Physical Therapy and especially Mark Murphy for your PT needs."

"WOW what an amazing journey! The difference a great team makes. In the past 12 months I've had both knees replaced. What I was expecting to be a hard painful road, turned into I psyched myself out for nothing. The team at Premier Physical Therapy helped me prep for my surgery with the right exercises. I was up and walking the halls and going up and downs stairs within hours of surgery. On the second knee I was able to go home the same day with no issues. I attribute it all to the work Mikayla Roberts and I did prior to surgery day. Post Op physical therapy was made fun with creative exercises that had me bending my knee more and more each visit had me walking farther than I had in years in no time. Yes, I had bumps in the recovery journey, but Mikayla always found a way to make sure we kept moving forward. I always knew that if Mikayla wasn't available Ryan, Mark and Dan were always standing by to help any way they could. There were tips for making my off days more effective and comfortable. Maureen and Sarah at the front desk always made sure my appointments were set and the insurance was doing what it was supposed to. My recovery with Premier Physical Therapy on my team was better than I could have dreamed. If you're considering having Full Knee Replacement Surgery, recommend getting in with Premier as soon as you can!"

There’s also an app that I could use to keep myself accountable for at-home exercises, which is so much more convenient than printing out pictures. As someone who has been through a lot of different physical therapists all over the country, Premier is by far the best group I’ve seen."

Mikayla was my amazing therapist. Not only did she help me achieve my goals. but she gave me hope for an active future. I will definitely be working with Mikayla again very soon after my second hip replacement. I highly recommend Premier Physical Therapy of the Upstate to anyone seeking relief and personalized attention from kind, and knowledgeable physical therapists.

"Premier PT is simply amazing. Everyone there is friendly and welcoming. I have had knee issues for more than 20 years and worked with many PTs and doctors, but had more progress and successful results in just 3 months working with Ryan than everything else combined. He took the time to really listen and ask lots of questions - not just at the first but every appointment - that helped him identify the real root issue, develop a game plan to correct it, and make any needed changes along the way based on my answers to get the best results. From my personal experience and from what I was able to see of others while I was there, the team at Premier seems to truly care about helping the patients and looks at everyone as an individual, not a generic plan of care kinda thing. Also - and very important in my opinion - all of the staff really seems to enjoy being there and being a part of the practice. I highly recommend this group for the best care and results."

"I had ruptured my L4/L5 disc 10 years ago that required surgery. April of this year I did further damage to the same L4/L5. This time the surgeon recommended physical therapy along with pain management before surgery. After 3 months of PT and one steroid injection, surgery has been avoided, although the damage is still present. I am pain free and as able to freely move about as I was prior to the re-injury. If PT had not been involved, surgery would certainly have been involved again.

"As the result of an accident, I had two surgeries in two different hospitals in 22 hours. My left arm humerus bone was split and broken in two different places and the rotator cuff was torn. The bone required a metal bar attached to the bone with 16 screws. I also had broken my left hip and had a hip replacement. I have always felt grateful for Mark. He always encouraged me and made me want to do my therapy every day, including 3 times a week with him for months and then 2 times a week for months. Mark always stayed and made sure that I knew how to do the exercise at home the right way. I have seen other therapists take 2 people at the same time and not take the time to make sure they are doing the exercise the correct way, always in a hurry. I know if I had not had Mark and his wonderful staff I never would have recovered completely. We feel very blessed to have Mark. Everyone in his office is professional, helpful and nice."

Starting with efficient, kind, and personable Maureen and Sarah at the front desk to phenomenal owner Mark and the best physical therapist I could have asked for, Dan. I was referred to Premier after cortisone shots from my rheumatologist no longer worked to ease pain in my shoulders. Dr. Merchant mentioned that she had been treated by Premier and highly recommended them. She was so right!! I was skeptical at first, having taken my mother to another therapy program after her hip replacement and seen them charge her insurance to simply observe her walking across the room. Premier is completely professional from the start and shows their knowledge from the very first visit until the last. Every exercise is explained. The routine is varied and your progress is carefully recorded and monitored. Dr. Merchant had warned me that the therapy might take up to a year to yield results, which was helpful as it did take a number of sessions before I could feel the improvements taking place. However, I never got discouraged because Mark and Dan worked tirelessly to figure out the best exercises and managed to keep everything upbeat and positive at all times. My only regret is that I'm finishing up just when they have opened their fantastic new building. I'm not hoping for any more injuries, but I know if and when they occur the first place I'll turn to for Physical Therapy will be Premier!!"

"Premier Pt has been a godsent to me, my husband and the friends I have recommended to Premier. My first experience was after back surgery then later hip surgery. I was in terrible pain and Mark truly saved me. After therapy and his great analysis Mark helped me get my life back. Then a few years later my husband had knee surgery and needed therapy. Mark did the same for him as he did for me. Through the years the friends that I have recommended to Premier who had therapy at other places all couldn't get over the difference between the therapy places they had been to and Premier. They liked the personal treatment they received and all were able to get their physical problems resolved and back to living a normal life whether it was their shoulder, arm, knee, back, neck, leg or hip. Now, years later, I find myself needing help with my sciatica so of course I came back to Premier and seeing both Mark and Dan. Dan has been there a couple of years but was new to me and is terrific. No matter what pain I go in with Dan always makes it better. I know he will get me back to a normal life again with the physical therapy he gives me. Maureen is at the front desk and takes care of all the scheduling and paperwork. She is so caring and wonderful to deal with. Also my husband took a golf training program with Keith and he was able to learn how to still enjoy golf and incorporate ways to keep from hurting himself in his senior years playing the game. They're all terrific at Premier Pt of the Upstate."

So while I was waiting for my rotor cuff surgery, I scheduled a series of appointments with Mark and Dan and I sincerely can not tell you the difference they have made in the healing of my neck and shoulder, so much so that I have cancelled my rotar cuff surgery.

After making an appointment I asked my neighbor, who has a Ph.D. in PT and consults with PT clinics around the country about them, and she said they are the therapists that she, herself, uses. Mark and Dan have been great for me. They carefully worked through the obvious suspects and then narrowed it down to the area causing my problem. Over the course of several sessions, Dan developed a home program for me to take with me to help stem off the problem in the future. I feel 100% better now and feel like I can use this course of exercise for the rest of my life. I appreciated the way they listen and the respect they show their clients.

"I went to Premier Physical Therapy of the Upstate to rehab my torn quadriceps tendon. Premier was recommended by my neighbor, who had gone there and had great success. i also looked online and saw they had 5 stars for their reviews. Add me to the list of people who give them 5 stars..The folks at Premier are awesome! From the owner Mark, to Maureen at the front desk, to my therapist Ryan Savage - these people are very professional, and also fun to be around. Ryan was incredible! He prepared me for the road ahead, gave me an indication of the timeline for recovery, and the milestones to look forward to. He was very patient with me and encouraged me throughout the process. He was a real joy to work with. I had therapy 2 times a week for 11 weeks. Ryan encouraged me to do the exercises at home every day, which I did. I pushed myself during the therapy as well, and it paid off. I completed my rehab a few weeks earlier than scheduled. My surgeon was completely amazed at my results. Premier Physical Therapy and Ryan Savage have my HIGHEST recommendation."

"My life has changed for the best since coming to Premier Physical therapy. When I was referred by my doctor I had constant pain in my back that would not allow me to stand sit or even lay down for too long. I had gone to another physical therapy place and had to stop after 4 visits because the exercises were to strenuous and would leave me in even more pain for days afterwards. Ryan from Premier listened to my problem, my complaints and was able to come up with exercises and movements that worked at my pace with my body and my problem. Just after a few visits I had more movement in my back than I had had in over a year. I could sit and stand for longer periods of time. I could do simple but fun activities with my kids that I was unable to do in a long time. They truly know what they are doing and they care about the people that come for their help. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for physical therapy!"

Other than the cookie-cutter checklist of exercises I've been given at other gyms, this has been my first experience working out one-on-one with a trainer. It has definitely been well worth it. Following back surgery I was afraid I would cause another injury, but Kaleb has helped me get over that fear. He is very knowledgeable and is sincerely focused on my needs.

"This is the BEST physical therapy business is in Greenville Country!!!!! I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that PT is not one of my favorite things but thank heavens we have PT professionals that can help us. Over the last couple years I've spent numerous hours with a big chain of PT offices around Greenville, some therapy was good, others not so much. Last year I consulted a specialist for a neck problem I had for some time. To my great surprise, he referred me to Premier PT. I am SO happy he did. This is NOT a chain but rather a family business! What a difference!!! Everyone, to include Maureen at the front desk, is SO friendly, accommodating, they truly make you feel welcome. There aren't enough wonderful things to say about my therapist Ryan. He's so knowledgeable, friendly, a great listener and problem solver. A while back a friend of mine told me about her experience with dry needling and how well it worked for her (she was not a patient of Premier PT). I was thrilled when Ryan approached the subject with me (it requires special certification); it's not used frequently but, along with ongoing stretching exercises, my neck muscles have systematically improved since day one. I recommend everyone visit Premier for all your therapy needs. If you are interested in personal training, they have a great variety of equipment as well."

"My experiences with Premier Physical Therapy and Physical Training began almost twenty years ago when a physical therapist recommended me to Keith Williams following major surgery to strengthen my muscles. Over the years, I have worked with Mark Murphy following three surgeries to rebuild my muscles and to learn what I have to do to be able to walk correctly and extend my elbow. properly. One significant aspect of Premier is that, once I finished physical therapy, I could continue my recovery with Keith through physical training. Mark and Keith discussed my situation so Keith developed a workout for me to improve and to strengthen my muscles. Over the years, Keith has established a program for me so that my muscles and bones stay strong. They have both worked a miracle for me! I can now walk without pain, and I feel stronger. Mark and Keith have established a warm and welcoming atmosphere for clients. If you are recommended to have your physical therapy at Premier, you will discover you are coming to a special place, and you will improve and heal with a smile on your face with these dedicated and talented professionals."

"So, before writing this review, I asked myself why my experience at Premier Physical Therapy has been so positive. First, it’s the general feeling as you walk in the door. Maurine greets you with a huge smile and has patience galore with scheduling. Second, it's Mark Murphy’s personable management style as it’s obvious he cares and keeps a pulse on what’s happening with each of the clients. Third, and perhaps most important, is the relationship I’ve built with my PT, Ryan Savage. We’ve been working on my nagging issues with plantar fasciitis. Ryan’s been able to individualize my treatment by carefully listening to each response to his regular question “feeling ok?” He has provided tricks for me to try at home should I hit an unexpected snag, whether it be a special stretch or an exercise with a bowl of marbles. In our weekly sessions he has demonstrated the qualities of being knowledgeable, patient, and positive, all the while encouraging me to focus on being more health conscious myself. I’d highly recommend a visit to Premier if you’re in need of PT treatment."

"I attended a sciatica workshop in Nov 2019 thinking I had the condition. When I started physical therapy about 2 months ago, I was in constant hip and back pain and would have to sit and rest after standing for more than 5 minutes. This was probably due to an ankle fusion surgery I had 4 years ago. Ryan has helped me uncover the triggers of my pain. He's helped me to strengthen my hip and back muscles as well as glutes and core. Now I can stand and walk longer than before. I can also stand longer while doing housework.

He is working with me to get back on the tennis court and is preparing me for a March ski trip. With his encouragement and patience, I will accomplish both goals. He listens to my "body" and knows exactly what to work on each time I go. I am in PT 3 days per week and it never gets old. I know I am going to miss the workouts once I am "cured".

Using the dry needle technique and stretching exercises, Mark prescribed, I was able to get relief. He also introduced me to a small handheld machine manufactured by HYPERVOLT which acts as a vibrator to stimulate the muscle groups where applied. I purchased this machine and continue to use it for myself and my wife, Heather. Mark is very thorough, takes notes like he was studying for a final, and reviews those notes before the next session.

He listened to me, working out the pain each visit and telling me what to do to improve. I did all my homework and the pain level kept going down until it was completely gone. What a relief! Just recently I overstressed my knee and tried to “work it out” myself to no avail. I went back to Premier again. I did see Mark a few times, but did most of my therapy was with Dan Carver and I am very pleased with his work. Each time Dan found the tight muscles, worked the tightness out, and the pain subsequently decreased to nothing. I also had his help with shoulder and mid back tightness. Through it all, Dan was fantastic and always surprised me with his knowledge and expertise. I definitely would recommend Dan and Mark to others.

Since my first quality experience with Premeir Therapy 4 yrs ago with Patrick for sciatic related and/or osteoarthritic condition, I realized that I would not ever go anyplace else for therapy. So recently (8/2019) when I experienced a more severe sciatic condition where I could not stand erect causing me to walk bent over with excruciating pain-I called Premeir again versus getting steroid shots or entertaining surgery.

"When I desperately was in need of physical therapy there were two things I was looking for. I wanted a physical therapist that worked ONlY with me and would not jump back and forth between two clients in a session. I wanted someone that loved what he or she was doing, was empathetic, had a sense of humor, and that person also had to truly want to help me resolve my chronic leg pain and get me functional again. The pain was unbearable and literally was controlling my career and life. Mark is a very gifted person and physical therapist. He not only is knowledgeable and his credentials demonstrate that but he has an incredible bedside manner . I would not go anywhere else but to Premier. When I walked in the door at Premier I physically was a mess, but my life has been changed with the results of his hard work. I am forever greatful for Mark for his gifted hands and mind."

"Hands down the best place to receive PT care either Pre or Post op! One on one care and rehab designed just for you and your specific needs. Mark is patient, kind, understanding and empathetic. He takes the time to listen and make 100% certain that you are comfortable and on the right track. His entire staff is friendly, and you never feel like you are in a gym with 15 other patients. 30 minutes of PT dedicated to you and your treatment. One of the happiest guys you'll ever meet. Thanks Mark for getting me back to my happy place and playing tennis! Note - he is so good that you have to book well in advance to get an appointment. He hasn't figured out how to clone himself yet."

"I have been a client of Dr. Murphy for 17 years. During those years, I have been treated for multiple issues. Dr. Murphy has painlessly been able to help me resolve them with out surgery or medication. My most recent return was due to sciatic latrogenic pain. I requested to be referred back to him to avoid developing nerve damage. My pain is gone and my motion is back to normal. I really trust and highly recommend Premier Physical Therapy should anyone ever need physical therapy."

"In December of 2017, I was diagnosed with L4/L5 herniated discs. This caused pain from my left hip to my left ankle. After three rounds of shots, I still had pain in my low leg. I had accepted that surgery was the only option, until I was referred to Premier. After a few more sessions and instructions on things to do at home, I’m almost 100% pain free. In fact, due to the tools shown to me by Premier, I feel better all over now, then I did prior to the injury."

"After visiting several physical therapist for an achilles issue that, not only stopped me from running, was impacting my everyday life. Mark Murphy immediately determined that the achilles was the symptom and not the cause. Other PTs treated the symptom which did not address the problem. After following Mark's direction of stretching and strengthening exercises I am back to running and living pain free. Mark is intuitive and knows his craft well. I am so thankful he was recommended to me and know that he will be my only call if an issue comes up."

I had knee replacement 2 years ago, and Keith worked with me to get my leg strong and ready for surgery. 3 weeks later I was seeing Mark for therapy. I never considered going any where else for rehab. Mark and Keith worked together during my time in therapy so that I was able to resume my workouts pretty quickly. I am sure that my recovery was much easier because of the care that Mark and Keith gave me. Kudos to the wonderful team at Premier!"

"I work with Keith as my personal trainer, and I noticed that I was having a lot of pain in my left forearm/elbow when I was doing bicep curls. It was particularly painful when I was lowering the weight. Keith suggested that I have one of the therapists take a look at what might be going on. I started seeing Mikayla, their newest member of the team. She did a fantastic job! On my third visit, she performed dry needling on the affected area, and after two sessions, my pain was gone! The results have been amazing. I highly recommend Mikayla and Premier."

In an environment that was always positive and encouraging, every session proved to be a productive effort towards eliminating my pain and helping me regain shoulder strength and mobility. Mark is by far the best physical therapist in this area. Thanks Mark for all of your help!!"

I reach out to Mark and his team to get me race ready, an impossible task , I know. Audrey worked with me first on some stretches and exercises to get me back running. I then saw Jamie for 3-4 dry needling sessions on calves and hips, which made me think I could go run the half. Long story short, I finished the 26.2 miles. My time was terrible, but no chance I would have even gotten to the start line if I had not been to see the team at Premier PT. Thanks! You are all Rock stars!"

Mark was so knowledgeable, helpful and one of the kindest people we have ever met. He truly cares about his patients in helping them get back into prime physical shape.
