Patient Testimonials

I saw Dr. Sall for primary care services. Even though he is concierge, if you have the means it is well worth it. First of all when can you ever see a doctor for an hour and second have someone that actually listens to all your concerns and will go above and beyond to help do the proper workup and get you the right treatment weather it's primary care related or sports medicine related. It is always easy to get in contact with a staff member, and if someone does not answer the phone, they have a fantastic text messaging system and someone is always quick to respond. I finally found a place that I feel like I am part of a family and not just another daily number. The other thing I think is amazing is all the services they offer. It's nice just being able to go to one location and not drive around all over town.

I tore my ACL playing college soccer. Dr. Labovitch and his amazing team helped me through a stressful process. From the moment you walk in you feel like you are part of a family, not just another number or dollar amount. You can tell so much thought and time has gone into SMaRT on every level, not just the building, but the staff. He was very thorough in his explanations of the injury and the process from pre-rehab and surgery to end goal of recovery. His medical team was exceptional in making sure I had everything I needed and all my questions were answered. I also chose to add PRP during surgery and utilize the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy postoperatively. It was amazing how much better this made me feel not just for my knee but my overall body. I truly believe this made a significant difference in speeding up my recovery and minimizing my pain levels. It's rare to find a physician and staff that cares the way they do. Hopefully I won't have any more injuries, but if I do I will definitely be back.

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Matt Zapf. My daughter had bilateral (not at the same time) tibial tubercle osteotomy and MPFL reconstructions due to her recurrent patella dislocations with patella alta. Two major surgeries for my daughter at 16 and then again at 17 years old.

From the moment we met Dr. Zapf at the consultation, then through two surgeries and then recovery, his care, professionalism, and expertise were outstanding. Dr. Zapf not only took the time to explain every step of the procedures in a way that was clear and reassuring, helping to ease her and my anxiety. His humor and connection with young athletes was like nothing I have seen in other surgeons.

The surgery itself was a complete success, and her recovery went even better than expected. My daughter felt supported every step of the way and even has decided to study Kinesiology in college due to her experience with Dr. Zapf. It’s clear that Dr. Zapf is not only incredibly skilled but also genuinely cares about their patients’ well-being.

I had been suffering from osteoarthritis for several years. I had some success with Physical Therapy, but it got to the point where the pain was so bad it was interfering with my life, I was having a lot of trouble getting around, and I was unable to do most of the things I enjoy. I was referred to Dr. Zapf, and on my first appointment, I knew I was in good hands. He performed a total hip replacement and I was up walking within an hour, I was off of all pain medicine within a week, and I was no longer using a walker after two. I returned to Physical Therapy and made great progress. It has been just over 4 months since my operation, and I am a totally new person. I am able to do most of the things I hadn't done in years, I am in no pain, and I continue to make progress every day. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Zapf for the expertise, care and support he provided throughout my journey. Thank you so much Dr. Zapf, you gave me my life back!

SMART is the only place my family and I will be going for PT or other related care! I've been to several other PTs in the area and Dr. John Kwon was life-changing. I got more out of one appointment with him than 6 weeks at other places. My husband is a

Best doctor visit in every way!! After exiting elevator, on second floor, to my surprise and delight the doors opened to an absolutely stunning, expansive and beautiful waiting room, as if I were entering my own Fancy apartment with private elevator :)
