"We are so happy with the care that we received from Sophie. First and foremost, our baby loved her and smiled whenever he saw her. She was kind and gentle but also straightforward and professional. She was very clear and helpful with her exercises and continuously updated her approach with his improvements. She was patient and understanding with both child and parent."

"Her detailed reports and follow through were exceptional. We had been to another pediatric physical therapist prior to Sophie, but we didn't feel confident in the care or the directions we received and we felt our questions and concerns were not appropriately addressed."

"Our experience with Sophie not only exceeded that of our previous therapist, but also our expectations in general.
We would recommend her highly."

"When my daughter was definitively diagnosed with torticollis and moulded baby syndrome I wanted to find a pediatric physical therapist who specialized in this congenital muscular disorder in order to achieve the best outcome. I understood the treatment for this condition was time sensitive, thus starting early was of the utmost importance. I initially started with a physical therapist at a reputable hospital. However, I quickly realized that the staff there predominantly treats adult patients. My pediatrician then referred me to Dr. Tritasavit and I'm so grateful I brought my daughter to her. I immediately felt in great hands under her care! The fact that Sophie primarily treats patients with this condition was very reassuring to me and Sophie's expertise exuded during her treatment sessions with my daughter. She is so gentle yet effective in her techniques and teaching methods. She was an incredible resource and source of support during our treatment and Sophie was always available for any questions in between sessions. I would highly recommend her without any hesitation."

"We knew from the time my daughter was 3 weeks old that she had torticollis, as it affected breastfeeding and the muscle growth on the right side of her face. At 2 months of age, she started treatment with an osteopath who implemented pediatric craniosacral therapy, which involved very subtle movements. Although there were slight improvements after 4 visits of craniosacral therapy, it was nothing like what we witnessed after seeing Sophie. When my daughter was 5 months old, we brought her to Sophie for treatment of her torticollis. Sophie is gentle and caring, yet gets "in there" and implements hands-on therapy directly to the areas that need to be worked on, without the child even realizing it! We were told that our daughter would need a helmet for a flat spot on one side of her head, but after seeing Sophie for a couple of months, that was no longer an issue. I can't recommend her enough. We have long since finished physical therapy and have had good long-term results. My daughter has perfect range of motion and a body that stands straight! Thanks Sophie!"

"Our pediatrician told us my son's head was askew. The next day, Dr. John Graham, the craniofacial specialist, diagnosed him with infant torticollis and referred us to see Dr. Sophie Tritasavit for treatment. The day after that, Sophie was in my living room working with my son. That's health care delivery. It is a parent's worst fear- a precious new baby, an unfamiliar diagnosis, an exotic name and a speculated cause. If the solution is not correctly implemented, there are long term potential problems for the child. Sophie is a specialist. During the first visit, Sophie explained what we were dealing with in a comprehensible manner. She outlined the treatment plan and we got started right away. Sophie performed physical therapy, gave us exercises to do in between her visits, provided us with feedback and updated evaluations, modified the exercises as needed based on development and progress, and taught us a lot. In addition to being an expert at her speciality, Sophie is a mom with a very broad knowledge of child-related issues. She is an understanding consultant whose resassurances regarding child-related concerns are extremely valuable. Health care delivery is a challenge. Sophie Tritasavit delivered expert health care, at our convenience, in our house, and now our son is cured. We will be forever grateful."

"Our son started therapy with Sophie as a newborn. We were so nervous about treating his torticollis and doing the right thing for our son! Sophie was amazing- she was so gentle with him and if any exercise didn't seem comfortable for him (or us) she helped us find another way to make sure he was getting the stretching and therapy he needed without discomfort."

"We looked forward to our sessions with Sophie and our son benefited tremendously. We had excellent results. We do not hesitate to highly recommend Dr. Sophie and Early Start Pediatric PT!"
