Five months post op from neck surgery, I was still in a lot of pain, frustrated that my recovery was not progressing in the highly recommended hospital-based PT that my insurance covered, and hopeless that I would ever regain my active lifestyle. Knowing my history, my massage therapist suggested that I reach out to Dr. Marks (“just Dylan,” per “Dylan”) to determine if he could help in my recovery. From the initial phone call to discuss my PT needs to today (18 months later), Dylan has been incredibly thorough when explaining the cause of my pain and the plan to reduce it. The constant unbearable pain that had prevented me from enjoying my active lifestyle has been severely reduced, thanks to Dylan's guidance! Today, at the age of 42, I am more active, strong, and optimistic than I've ever been. I know daily pain may still be in my future, but with the help from Dylan, it is manageable and will never prevent me from living the active lifestyle that I desire. My only regret is not finding Dylan before I had my neck surgery. I have zero doubts that the surgery that will affect me for the rest of my life could have been prevented had I discovered Spartan Rehab & Performance sooner!

I came to Spartan Rehab on the recommendation of a friend who had nothing but amazing things to say about Dr. Dylan Marks. My initial consultation was to evaluate lower back pain that was making everyday life very painful. He took considerable time to listen to what I said, walk me through the evaluation process and provide insightful, physiological reasons as to what the cause could be. He explained things in a way I could clearly understand and was never once condescending, while also showing me reference material to support his opinions/treatment plan. Within one treatment session my mobility increased, and by the end of the series, I was back to running and feeling comfortable again. I appreciate that he asks what my goals are for each session (stretching, mobility, strength goals, tweaking form, dry needling, etc) and delivers on what we discuss. I highly recommend Dylan. He really does work some magic!

I started working with Spartan Rehab and Performance in the fall of last year. In December 2022, I had surgery to repair a tendon in my foot and went to two different PTs following the surgery. I was honestly very skeptical of all PTs when I started working with Spartan since it had been nearly a year after my surgery, I was still experiencing fatigue in my foot, and I was unable to walk or stand for longer than 15 minutes. My orthopedic surgeon kept telling me it would take time to heal, and the PTs I worked with prior kept giving me the same exercises with no relief. Dylan spent a half hour on the phone with me for our initial conversation - and it was the first time a medical provider had actually listened to me for longer than a minute. There is a different approach at this practice that is truly unrivaled - my experience at Spartan has been personalized to my injury and lifestyle, and it is evident that they truly care about each of their patients. I didn’t think I’d be able to walk for longer periods maybe ever and I’m now walking every day for miles. I would recommend Spartan to anyone - go there first and save yourself the trouble of big box PT clinics who don’t show care and don’t deliver results. I started working with Spartan on personal training this year and I will need to write another review for that! Thank you so much - I am very grateful and if I could give 10 stars I would.

I originally came to Dylan the beginning of this year to help with pain in my shoulder blade and tingling in one of my feet. All my pains and tingling have been completely resolved. Dylan is so great at explaining all the possible reasons for your pain and always pivoting and problem solving if something needs to be adjusted. He provides exercises in bite size chunks, which makes it really easy to remember and actually be consistent about doing them. It is also great that Dylan has such a robust skill set, so even when you are feeling really good he can add value in so many ways. I also can have some anxiety about some of the chiropractic adjustments and Dylan never pressures you to do anything you don't want to do and always makes you feel heard. I can't recommend Dylan enough!!

I’ve had chronic back pain for the past 4 years. I’ve been to several physical therapists, doctors, chiropractors, and acupuncturists across several states and I’ve received 0 help and never felt 100% understood. Dylan is the first person I’ve worked with who completely understands what I’m going through with out even having to explain everything, I’ve been seeing him for about only a month and have already seen immediate progression and it’s made my life so much more pleasant. I HIGHLY recommend Dylan as your physical therapist.

When I first came to Dylan, I was in sad shape, unable to turn my neck either direction. I spent over half a year meeting with other physical therapists and doctors who could not help me. Within a few weeks, I had good range of motion restored! Then it was my shoulder and upper back. I couldn't lift my arm over my head. Then it was my knees. One by one, he fixed each problem in record time. I am probably the healthiest I have ever been in my adult life. I would often go into a PT session discouraged. I would always come away in high spirits and optimistic. I wish I could send all my friends who have physical aches and pains to Dylan to be cured!

Dylan has been an absolute pleasure to work with over the last 4 months! I came to him with a 3 year long shoulder injury and lofty recovery goal. Through exercise and dry needling he was able to help me rehab my shoulder in my goal timeframe. It has truly been such a relief to become pain free over just a few months while still doing the things I love. Dylan makes himself available between sessions for questions and clearly cares about his patients overall health and success. In rehabing my shoulder he has also developed a full weight training course for me & miraculously cured my years long persistent headaches. It is clear he is passionate about his work and his motivated approach truly benefits his patients.

Dylan is hands down the best PT I've ever worked with. I first got injured in 2016 and since have tried PT 4 or 5 times with no luck. A friend told me about how Dylan had helped him and urged me to give PT one more try. I have gotten better every day since seeing him. Whenever you have a question, Dylan gets out his big book of muscles and shows you exactly what is going on. It will sound crazy when he tells you it's not really your shoulder that's the issue, but your neck and goes over how everything is a chain reaction. Other PTs just say, "Oh, your shoulder? These are shoulder exercises." This is what sets Dylan apart from your typical, commercial offices.

I thought my days of working out, playing sports, and even being to sit on the floor to play with my kid without my back seizing up were over. But through biweekly session with Dylan (which are much more practical than the other PT schedules I've had) I've finally got my body back.

Dylan is the best physical therapist I have ever worked with. He has helped myself and my wife with numerous injuries and issues. Dylan is very thorough and knowledgeable and does a great job at explaining everything he is doing. After experiencing his level of expertise, I won’t go anywhere else. A+ 10/10
