Community Feedback
"The Hoover Thrive team is amazing! Imani is so easy to get in touch with to schedule appointments over text. I was referred here by my OB during pregnancy. I am so thankful for the work that Luise did with me to alleviate pregnancy discomfort and to help me prepare for labor. I went in to labor feeling so educated and prepared to advocate for myself. I am so excited to start my postpartum healing journey with Louise. I would 100% recommend seeing a Thrive pelvic floor physical therapist during pregnancy and postpartum."

"I cannot recommend Ann enough! Physical therapy at Thrive was incredibly beneficial for me both during pregnancy and postpartum, and she made the entire experience feel comfortable and supportive. She is compassionate and encouraging, and creates such a safe environment for her patients. I’m very grateful for her care and would highly encourage anyone considering pelvic floor PT to see her!"

"I am so thankful for my experience with Thrive PT during postpartum. I loved working with Carol — she was so kind, patient, understanding, and reassuring throughout my recovery. She made me feel comfortable and supported during each session, and her knowledge and encouragement helped me tremendously both physically and emotionally. I’m incredibly grateful for her care and highly recommend her to any postpartum mom!"
