“I had the unfortunate experience of suffering from two separate, concurrent injuries. Working closely with my surgeons, Craig and his team developed a personalized treatment plan to help me regain strength, mobility, and flexibility.
Recovery from an injury is not always easy, but over several months, I received the professional care and inspiration I needed to return me to an active lifestyle, that includes cycling, skiing, yoga, and walking our beautiful campus her in Midland.
Craig has a unique ability to explain complex concepts in a warm and friendly manner. He knew my limits and he pushed me in a way that directly and positively, impacted my recovery. I deeply appreciate the personalized care I received at Active Orthopedics Physical Therapy and recommend their services to anyone committed to living an active and pain free life. “

” I am over 80 years old and I have spinal stenosis, scoliosis, and arthritis. I also had a complete knee replacement in 2022. I have worked on and off with Craig Elford at Active Orthopedics for more than five years. Due to Craig’s knowledge, expertise and effective programming, I no longer fall down, and my balance continues to improve. I move around independently, and I am a very active person. I am happy to recommend Active Orthopedics Physical Therapy. “

It's not just more reps with a stretchy band. Observing other patients, they use a WIDE variety of tools and equipment. I think I've found my "forever" therapy center."

One thing I really appreciated was how thorough the evaluation process was. They didn’t just throw a generic routine at me—instead, they came up with a personalized plan that made sense for my situation. You can tell they’ve worked with a wide range of people—from athletes to older adults—because they’re really good at adjusting things to fit your needs.
Overall, it's a supportive, professional environment where you feel like you're actually making progress. Highly recommend if you’re looking for quality physical therapy in the area."

My therapist, Logan, was absolutely fantastic! Logan was always on time, very personable, patient, and took the extra time to explain and educate me on my injury. He did a great job working on my shoulder and was excellent at teaching me the exercises to use at home and at the gym. Extremely happy with my results and couldn’t say enough about the professionalism of the other staff as well. Highly recommend Active Orthopedics for any PT services!"

The therapists were top notch. I feel like I got mental and emotional therapy talking with Logan while he worked on my healing physically. I had a lot of concerns going into my surgery about my abilities afterwards, and the AO team got me back to normal... What a relief.
I forgot a few early appointments and the Office ladies were so kind and understanding and helped me sort things out with ease and patience.
I can't speak highly enough about this establishment, and I highly recommend their facility. It's a great place to find healing and strength."

"I have known Craig for several years. I believe I first had physical therapy with him over 8 years ago. I had tripped up wooden stairs and fractured my right patella. The bone healed, but, pain continued. I went thru some PT and other treatments with Craig/staff which eliminated the pain. ( I think it was ultrasound)
Since that day, I've been treated for neck and other issues. I've always been treated with great care and skill.
Currently, I'm back at Active Orthopedics for another injury. I tore up my shoulder while performing deadlifts. A nasty injury. Craig/staff are now helping me rehab my shoulder since surgery. I have all my trust in them to help me get my shoulder back into shape so I can return to the gym. ( I'll try to be more careful)
I'm always pushing my body harder/further than I should for my age, so, I expect to need them again at some point.
I can't recommend them enough.... They are the best!"
