Reply to Seeking physical therapist recommendations by grantvoyager

I've been to Amity for 2 different body parts, years apart. My husband's been to PTSMC on and off over the years. The 2 PTs I saw at Amity for issue 1 left for other jobs at almost the same time right before I was through with treatment, which was a little bizarre. Issue 2 I saw one of the owners, who knows his stuff. I've heard from other past patients that Amity seems to churn through new grads. OTOH my husband's 1st PT at PTSMC only stayed a few years too.

Both Amity and PTSMC are run the same way--where you see the PT for a chunk of your session, and then the PTAs do everything else. If your A is in PT school and are working as an A for experience, then you might be OK. Most of those are good and take what they do seriously. If they are a career A, YMMV. Some are barely a step up from the people working the desk at the gym.

In my 2 different body part experiences at Amity, I saw the PTs longer than 10 mins but that's because I needed more involved treatment that the As couldn't touch.

Just my 5 cents lol. Good luck!

sports haven is actually really sick. they have sports betting kiosks now and some of the cheapest drinks/snacks in town. the only issue is that the hours are really bad for baseball (they close at 6pm on most weekdays).

the outside is aesthetically horrible, but inside Sports Haven theyve tons of big screens for sports, and horse racing is what they do. so it gets a low grade for any sports-bar atmosphere but technically you'll get to drink at the bar and watch tons of sports-baseball.

Reply to Looking for an apartment? Want to know about neighborhoods? Please read this before posting. by eddie964

I think a problem is you’re left sifting through tons of different posts with a terrible Reddit search function, so unless you create a new post and ask you might not find what you’re looking for. I recently moved back to New Haven after living here about eight years ago and tried looking through this sub for advice on buildings but it was tough. Straight up not searching beforehand is lazy, but if you do try to search, like I said it can be tough to find what you need for what is a pretty big decision.

If I may, I would recommend a mega thread for people to post about neighborhoods or buildings they’ve lived in, and linking that in the sidebar.
