The Onward Experience

What Our Patients Say

"Dr. Comford is the best I have been to. Taylor understood the problem and shot out to fix it. He knows how to push you to do your best when you’re with them and without. He makes sure to get you short term relief and work for long-term solutions. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for physical therapy."

Michael M.

"I have known Taylor for about four years and no one has helped me more than he has. It is always nice to walk in and see that smile and know that you were going to feel better when you walk out. Taylor is extremely good at his job."

Betsy H.

"Unfortunately, but FORTUNATELY, I spent time with Dr. Comford recovering from two different surgical procedures at his facility. During that time, I had the opportunity to observe firsthand, his exceptional work ethic, and leadership skills. I truly believe his balance of professionalism and kindness, combined with his incredible PT knowledge, are nearly impossible to beat. He truly cares about his patients and will get you back to living your best life.” "
