Board-certified orthopedic care, delivered to your door. One-on-one sessions with Dr. Niko Dobbs, a top-10% credentialed specialist, every time, on your schedule.
You're dealing with enough already: pain, limited mobility, and the stress of getting back to normal. Adding a stressful commute and a crowded waiting room two or three times a week shouldn't be part of the equation.
In-home physical therapy means treatment happens where you're most comfortable, your home. No driving. No waiting. Just focused, one-on-one care from a board-certified specialist who gives you the full session, every time.
Dr. Dobbs holds the OCS certification, earned by fewer than 10% of PTs nationally. That means advanced training in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions, from post-surgical rehab to chronic pain.
You'll never share your session with another patient or get handed off to an aide. Dr. Dobbs treats every client personally, start to finish, every visit. Your progress doesn't get lost between providers.
Dr. Dobbs brings everything needed for a full PT session to your door. Because treatment happens in your actual living environment, exercises translate directly to your daily life.
Need soft tissue work along with your rehab? Dr. Dobbs is also a certified massage practitioner. He can integrate therapeutic massage into your PT plan. That's something most physical therapists can't offer.
Getting started is simple, and you don't even need a referral in California.

Dr. Niko Dobbs is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and board-certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), a credential held by fewer than 10% of physical therapists in the country. He graduated from Azusa Pacific University and has been treating patients across the San Gabriel Valley since 2018.
Niko built his practice around a belief that physical therapy works best when it's personal, convenient, and focused entirely on you. He treats everything from post-surgical rehab to sports injuries, chronic pain, and mobility challenges.
“Niko has been amazing to work with during my recovery from a back injury. He put together a thoughtful, personalized treatment plan that really targeted what I was dealing with. He always takes the time to listen and explain things clearly, patiently answering any questions I have. I’ve made great progress thanks to his care and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for support in their recovery.”
“My family and I could not have better things to say about Nicholas. He helped my mom in recovering from her knee replacement surgery and was extremely patient, and sensitive to her progress while also being culturally aware and competent with my mom’s basic English. Always punctual, and flexible with accommodating schedules. Highly recommend.”
