Andrew Merget and take control physical therapy is the premiere place to go in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas. I had a surfing injury that removed connection to my tricep area. Within a handful of sessions, Andrew had me well on my way to recovery. I highly recommend a visit if you have any mobility issues. This place is a gem.

Andrew is the best physical therapist in Jacksonville! I have chronic neck pain and felt sustained relief after the 1st session. He educates, performs manual therapy, teaches exercises to do at home, and essentially teaches you how to help yourself so you don’t need to continue coming to see him. I can’t recommend Andrew enough!

As a chiropractor I’ve had the pleasure of co-managing complex cases with Dr. Andrew and consistently hear only the most positive feedback from our shared patients. I’ve also seen firsthand the outstanding results he achieves. So when my mother needed a physical therapist, there was no question who I would send her to. She’s only three visits into care and has already experienced tremendous improvement. Dr. Andrew is thorough in his examinations, honest in his recommendations, and genuinely dedicated to his patients’ progress. I can’t say enough good things about his care!

I highly recommend Andrew, I have been a long term sufferer of lower back pain. The pain would come and go depending on the level of activity I had. I came to Andrew in the middle of a terrible episode. Andrew did a complete evaluation, identified the root cause and treated me. Not only did I see relief very quickly, he educated me so that I can work to prevent episodes in the future. I appreciated his hands on approach and professionalism in the process. I never in my wildest dreams would have thought I'd be at a point where I could intervene in the frequency of my back pain but Andrew showed me I could do just that.

I’ve seen multiple therapists and spoken with several doctors over the past three years since my surgery, but nothing truly helped. I wasn’t able to run at all and even simple movements like squatting caused a lot of pain. After just one session with Andrew and his unique approach, I was able to squat easily and pain-free for the first time in years. The difference was unbelievable. His expertise and personalized care stand out from anyone I’ve worked with before — I honestly can’t recommend him enough!
