I want to compliment the owner (Alison) and her staff at GaitWay Of Charlotte on the excellent care I received during my In-Home Physical Therapy. After my hospital discharge a friend recommended GaitWay of Charlotte. I made the call and was immediately set up for an in home evaluation and then assigned to my personal therapist (Kelly). This has worked out very well. Kelly is so professional and caring. She kept me informed regarding all the things we were doing so as to help me regain my balance and deal with dizziness. She would keep me informed when she was about to arrive which was a plus. Should me or my family need help again, I would definitely like for them to seek out care with GaitWayOf Charlotte.

Alison and her team at Gaitway are amazing. My father has an autoimmune condition that affects his muscles and balance. After a long hospitalization in the fall, my father was bed bound. He had little to no mobility. Alison's terrific team of PT and OT specialists now have my father walking with a walker and a cane in less than 6 months. His team lead by Alison is thoughtful, kind, professional and diligent with his care. They assess how he is doing on a daily basis when they work with him and make appropriate changes as needed. It's not a "one-size-fits all" therapeutic approach. I do not live in the Charlotte area, so Alison provides me with weekly if not daily reports on how he is doing. The peace of mind that gives me can't be measured. I can't say enough about the quality of care and personal attention my father has received from Alison and Gaitway. They really are miracle workers and have become a part of our family.

Gaitway of Charlotte is amazing. Kind, caring, sensible and willing to explain things so you can understand. They have helped so many people that I know and I love to hear all of their stories of accomplishments! I especially love the work they are doing with Long-Covid patients. Going where no one ever imagined we would have to go, but figuring it out on a case-by-case basis and getting great results.

Gaitway has seen to it that my husband has gone from a wheelchair to a walker to a cane, after he sustained a TBI and other injuries in a fall. We are so grateful for Melinda, Brooke, Kristie and Allison! Each demonstrates their individual expertise as well as a genuine commitment to my husband's continuing recovery! As his caregiver, they help me too!

I got a back surgery in early May. I was in a very bad shape, I wasn't able to stand up, that's when I met Mrs. Allison. From the first moment I feel they knows what they where doing. A week after that the (OT) Ms. Janice show up at my house, I was in a lot of pain and very anxious, they show me how to manage all that was going on, then I started learning breathing technics and more. Soon enough I started to pick up everything they told me and I could do more and more things. After the (OT) Ms. Janice had left the (PT) Mrs. Melinda came to help. The (PT) Mrs. Melinda help as much as the others to put me on my feet. I started to going outside and take small walks, practicing steps. At that time I saw my self passing from the walker to the crutches and finally to my Cane. I know this is a long journey and I need more therapy but, Mrs. Alison, (OT) Ms. Janice, and (PT) Mrs. Melinda all are great people and are the reason why I am able to walk now. I couldn't have been more blessed with all the help they did for me and for my recovery. I would highly recommend them to anyone, they are very professional, respectful, emphatic and friendly people!

My family and I are beyond thankful to have found Gaitway of Charlotte! Alison and Rebekah were absolutely amazing in providing physical and occupational therapy with my mother and their level of expertise was phenomenal. Alison not only provided a service but also educated our family with extensive knowledge regarding my mother's injury and connected us with resources to obtain the necessary equipment she would need throughout her recovery. My family and I can't thank Gaitway enough for all of their impeccable services!!

During this past year.that my Daughter has been ill..I don"t know what we would have done.without the help, concern.and passion for our love one. .from Gaitway.we as her Family would like to Express our Thanks to each and everyone....Sincerely..Angela's Family.

Alison and her staff, most particularly Molly, have been exceptionally helpful following my husband's time in the hospital. They have worked diligently to understand his particular situation and his improvement bears witness to their knowledge and their attention. Alison has offered several very worthwhile suggestions on how we can make our home safer as my husband rehabs, and Molly has worked to help me know how to coach him through his exercises. He is now beginning a maintenance program with Molly, and is optimistic regarding his continued improvement.
I am comforted in knowing that both Alison and Molly are available for continued questions. Just this week I texted Alison for a recommendation for an exercise bike, and received a reply back in minutes. How thankful I am for them and for their support!!

Mrs. Alison owner of the company is one of the Kindness person I've ever met, professional speaking, definitely she and her staff know what they're doing, besides that they really care about you, willing that you get better every day! Feel confident using her company services! I would finish saying thank you Mrs. Janice and Mrs. Melinda are the best!

Gaitway of Charlotte has been working with my mom on strength and balance for several months. Having used another similar service for 8 weeks, we've been amazed at the rapid progress Mom has made since changing to Gaitway. Everything from Alison's extremely thorough assessments and follow-up to the twice weekly sessions with Molly have truly been exceptional. From the outset It's been very evident that the professionals at Gaitway are compassionate and caring about their patients. Thank you Alison & Molly!

I contacted Alison Starkey from Gaitway after a fall left me with a fractured ankle and on crutches (non-weight-bearing) for at least a month. During COVID-19, I was nervous about going into medical buildings any more than absolutely necessary, so Gaitway's at-home treatment was the option that I needed. Alison helped me adjust the crutches and taught me the best way to use them, not only for my comfort and safety but also to maximize my mobility. Alison was extremely detailed in her assessment of my injury and in understanding my needs and my support system during my recovery time. She was thoughtful and thorough in her approach and she's an absolute wiz with kinesio tape! I am so grateful for Alison and for the amazing value that Gaitway of Charlotte provided to me! I would recommend Alison and Gaitway to anyone who is seeking expertise and assistance in the safety of their home.

I suffered a severe injury at work back in July, and these wonderful ladies at Gaitway got me back on my feet! When I first started therapy I was in bad shape, and couldn't even stand or move my arm. Allison started her in-home visits for my physical therapy, and I couldn't have been more blessed! She fought tooth and nail to get me what I needed for a quick recovery. Not only was she my therapist for my injury, but also lent me a concerned ear for my mental state as well. Rebekah and Julia were in charge of my OT. They were jokingly known as the Princesses of pain. They both pushed me to new limits that I Could never imagine at the start of our treatment. All of these ladies were very professional and kind to me during a tragic moment in my life. I will be forever grateful! Thank you ladies!

I have been a therapist for over 40 years, but I learned so much when talking with Alison Starkey. She opened my eyes to new equipment and technology, from simple to high-tech, that could help my clients remain safely in their homes.

If I could give 6 stars, I would! Alison Starkey and her team of therapists are the best we've experienced in our 18 month journey. My husband suffered a massive brain hemorrhage due an AVM rupture on july 11, 2018. After doing Inpatient and outpatient therapy through Atrium, we knew we were ready for more and Gaitway and Alison came to the rescue. She is so patient and really understands my husbands needs and the way he responds to therapies. And she is super funny!! Alison's rolodex should be the envy of all PTs in Charlotte- she has referred us to Race to Walk (this was just during a consult prior to us using her services), helped with recommending equipment to make out home safer for my husband in all his stages from wheelchair to cane. And introduced us to a great speech therapist to help with his very high level executive function deficits as well as a therapist for me!! I really needed someone to talk to that understood what a caregiver goes through- and wouldn't you know it, Alison referred me to a Therapist who specializes in caregivers! My husbands progress since we've started using Gateway in July of 2019 has been remarkable. He did so well with his progress at Atrium but we knew he could be pushed further and having the therapy at home has really made it come together because it is truly functional therapy related to how we live, where we live, etc. I know that between my husband's tremendous dedication and determination and the dedication of Alison and her team of therapists, we would not be where we are today-- and where we are is- he is ready to stop using a cane in about a week, he is using his left hand/arm (he is left side affected) for function things like opening/closing the dishwasher, opening/closing refrigerator, he's washing himself in the shower with min to zero assistance, he's dressing himself fully 3 times a week, he's making his own lunch 3 times a week, the list goes on! THANK YOU THANK YOU to Gaitway of Charlotte and Alison Starkey!

Reviews are subjective of course but I believe they can be divided into sections eg operational professionalism/efficiency, subject expertise of provider, and quality of care/treatment/result.

There are many challenges for patient and provider alike in these areas due to consolidation in many specialties, frequent turnover in organizations/offices and simply getting lost in the bureaucracy (insurance, follow-up care, patient volume etc). Modern medicine is remarkable for its wealth of knowledge, technology & efficacy but it's very easy to feel like a number instead of a patient at times.

With all this in mind I'm happy to report that Gaitway & Alison Starkey achieve full marks in the areas outlined above while also avoiding avoid the pitfalls.

Gaitway took the time to fully document & understand patient needs, history and desired outcome(s). Exams, analysis and advice were thorough and patient-specific (ie no boilerplate). Treatment was equally personalized and modified/augmented over time to achieve optimal results. Concerns & questions regarding treatment, appointments, billing, etc. were handled clearly & rapidly.

Highest recommendation!

I highly recommend Alison of Gaitway of Charlotte and her very comprehensive services. As part of 1 single evaluation, she spent over 6 hours with me and my family over the course of the several calls and a 4 hours visit. She worked more diligently than I would have imagined to ensure that she understands the situation fully and makes the best recommendations for care. Her comprehensive suite of guidance brought to light many things of which I was unaware and will benefit me and my family significantly.

My wife Dee was in hospice care at home for terminal cancer. We were desperate for help with physical therapy that hospice will not provide. Alison offered so much more than just that; providing very tangible solutions to problems of mobility. Dee looked forward to Alison's visits more than any caregiver and made our lives better during the time we spent together

We met Gaitway of Charlote's Alison Starkey while looking for a senior care expert who could educate our aging community and their families about addressing the practical and somewhat emotional challenges of aging in place. We found that she truly knows her stuff and offers sound, quality -of-life changing guidance on how to be safer and more independent in one's own home. Thanks, Alison, for giving us your time and invaluable insights!

Dear Alison,

I just want to say want to say how much I appreciate all that you have done for our mutual clients.

You not only provide a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan, but you consistently go above and beyond in educating the client, family members, and our caregivers to work as a team to achieve the best possible results. I also appreciate your responsiveness when questions arise.

I have seen the positive impact of your extensive experience and integrated approach to care, especially for clients with living with dementia, You have a true passion for helping others that shows in every phone call and visit. You know when to keep it professional, when to push a little harder, and when to share a laugh.

Thanks again for all your help.

Alison Starkey and her team at Gaitway worked with some clients who were custom building a home. Alison was so knowledgeable of how to design the home so that they could age in place and made specific design recommendations to accomodate an illness of one of the homeowners. My clients were able to design a home they would never have to leave. Gaitway of Charlotte is an amazing resource for me as a Realtor for clients who are looking for a home they are designing or how to modify a home to meet their age and/or health needs.

I NEVER felt rushed or pressured at any time and She gave me information I have not received since this whole dream started.. Please consider her services for your loved one and receive your fresh air.. THANK YOU ALLISON AND GATEWAY !! Thank you again !

I am a supporter of Gaitway of Charlotte and refer clients to them without reservation. As an orthopaedic surgeon, I fully support the mission of Gaitway to allow older adults to safely remain at home and achieve longevity of independent living. If an ounce of prevention is truly worth a pound of treatment, then Gaitway of Charlotte and their head therapist, Alison Starkey, are worth their weight in gold. Truly exceptional knowledge and compassionate care.

David Hill

To whom it may concern: February 23, 2017

I have known Alison Starkey, PT for a number of years as we both work in the Senior Care Industry in Charlotte NC. Alison is a confident, highly professional and compassionate individual - I was so impressed with her that I hired her to evaluate my own dad. Alison is more than your average Physical Therapist that helps you to gain strength back and maneuver with assistive devices. Her forte is home safety for the elderly and disabled enabling them to remain as independent as possible in their own home. Her extremely comprehensive evaluation is over 3 hours. The times goes fast as she is listening and engaging your parent(s) in conversation, easily allowing them to speak openly about very difficult topics. She will make them feel comfortable, allowing them to answer the difficult questions honestly. Following the evaluation, she wrote up all of the discussion and her findings in a professional and polished report. She was able to communicate with me at my level, and held respect for the knowledge I did have as well as offering insight into some of her findings that were, honestly, surprising to me.

With safety and ease of performing their activities of daily living (bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting) being the focus, Alison brings all kinds of every day solutions to the table - some were sensible quick fixes and others were more towards potential renovations that also made perfect sense to provide the safest environment for not only my dad but also my aging mom. The home evaluation, comprehensive report and suggestions to provide the safest home for an aging parents is a TREMENDOUS value. Worth EVERY penny. The nominal investment I know will pay dividends in prevention of injuries. Again, Alison is so much more than a Physical Therapist. She is clearly comfortable with seniors and they enjoy her too. Her experience in dealing with elderly and their medical problems shone through in all that she said. She is able to gain trust and buy in easily - so hard for any caregiver or adult child to establish with their own parents. She is clearly passionate about her work and it shows when she interacts with clients.

I recommend Alison and her company Gaitway of Charlotte LLC, without any hesitation! I will continue to encourage my clients to hire Alison to help keep their dear parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent or neighbor at home safely. I promise you will not be disappointed!

To whom it may concern: Jan 10th, 2017

Alison Starkey at Gaitway of Charlotte LLC, has been under my employ for several months caring for my good friend Alan for whom I am power of attorney. Alan has had multiple medical problems and is an eccentric character. Alison's firm, Gaitway of Charlotte, were consulted to assist us with getting Alan as mobile as possible in preparation for a more independent environment. I have had many Physical Therapists work with Alan in the past - none of them were of the caliber of Alison Starkey. She brings years of experience in dealing with folks with complicated medical issues and is clearly comfortable with individuals with complex neurological issues. She was able to get through to Alan in a way that no Physical Therapist has been able to before. As a result, she was able to get Alan to a much higher level of function, as well as train his caregivers on how to get him to help himself with activities of daily living. Alison brings enormous value to her clients.

Alison is a strong communicator and usually calls me after sessions to let me know how he is doing. She has been integral in getting Alan on a schedule, shaving and bathing himself despite his reluctance at times to participate. She has been a ready and reliable resource to problem solve and advise through the challenging issues that surround caregivers of folks with multiple medical problems and has been his advocate at every opportunity. When others may have either given up or just gone through the motions, Alison continued to be passionate and focused on driving to the objectives at hand for Alan. Alison is also of high integrity. When she thought, Al didn't need her services as often as he was receiving them she suggested less visits. This is a characteristic that is priceless in both the cost and the care of a loved one. She is also very connected to various health care advisors and facilities. She is extremely helpful in providing direction to health care resources in a very confusing and frustrating system.

I am happy to recommend Alison and her company Gaitway of Charlotte LLC.

Letter of Recommendation - Gaitway of Charlotte: October 26, 2016

Alison offered positive solutions to our concerns about my husband's dementia. We appreciated her referrals- especially the doctor in Chapel Hill NC and the driving evaluation. This alone was well worth the money for Alison to help us.

Thanks Alison for all of the extra time you gave both me and John.

Alison,

It was very comforting having you as a resource for my mom as she relocated her sick husband from Florida to Charlotte. The medical community here is intimidating for a newcomer, especially for one with a sick spouse. Thanks for making a difficult situation so much easier by finding her the best providers.

The value that Gaitway of Charlotte brought to our challenging situation was enormous - it is without reservation that I recommend you and your services at Gaitway to any prospective clients.

Warm Regards,

Dear Alison:
Your services were exceptional and a great comfort my family. My mom has mid to late stage Alzheimer's and we needed more than what we were getting from medical doctors. Your cognitive study and analysis helped us clearly understand where mom is on her journey and provided us with recommendations to help her stay comfortably and safely at home. Recommendations included: licensed contractor who modified bathrooms, physical therapist, inhome safety change, and adult supervision for Mom. Having my Dad hear these from a professional with the data behind it made it easier for him to understand and accept Mom's stage and make necessary changes.

Alison, your compassion for the aging and their families is evident in the delicate way you handle all communication. You are providing a much-needed service and I would highly recommend Gaitway of Charlotte for any family who has a loved one with dementia or aging challenges.

With much gratitude,
Susi R

Alison has been key to my wife, Barbara, and me. Due to her knowledge, contacts, and very capable associates Barbara has been able to live at home and outside of institutions in our home. We recommend her highly.

Gaitway of Charlotte owner Alison Starkey has been a God-send for me during some fairly difficult times in the past nine months! The in-home care has been exactly what I've needed and am very thankful for. She's advocated in numerous ways, including encouraging me to contact my pulmonologist when I didn't know I needed his help, driving me to the Emergency Room at the local hospital herself when making connections with my primary care physician were becoming increasingly difficult, and referring me to other doctors as the need arose. Having her as an advocate has been life-saving for me. Gaitway Occupational Therapist, Rebekah, has also been extremely valuable in innumerable ways. I can't say enough good things about her and the assistance she has given me! In addition to Rebekah, Alison has other connections, people who are also very helpful and totally dependable. It's been a pleasure working with Gaitway. I highly recommend Alison and her crew.

Alison and her staff, most particularly Molly, have been exceptionally helpful following my husband's time in the hospital. They have worked diligently to understand his particular situation and his improvement bears witness to their knowledge and their attention. Alison has offered several very worthwhile suggestions on how we can make our home safer as my husband rehabs, and Molly has worked to help me know how to coach him through his exercises. He is now beginning a maintenance program with Molly, and is optimistic regarding his continued improvement.
I am comforted in knowing that both Alison and Molly are available for continued questions. Just this week I texted Alison for a recommendation for an exercise bike, and received a reply back in minutes. How thankful I am for them and for their support!!

Gaitway of Charlotte has been working with my mom on strength and balance for several months. Having used another similar service for 8 weeks, we've been amazed at the rapid progress Mom has made since changing to Gaitway. Everything from Alison's extremely thorough assessments and follow-up to the twice weekly sessions with Molly have truly been exceptional. From the outset It's been very evident that the professionals at Gaitway are compassionate and caring about their patients. Thank you Alison & Molly!

Alison and her staff, Melinda, Janice and Kristie have been excellent throughout their service to my son, a 51 year old man who suffered a severe brain injury almost 3 years ago. They brought him from being unable to sit up or stand to walking with a cane with supervision. We will forever be grateful to these professionals.

We have been so pleased with the care provided by Kelly and Cindy to my father-in-law. He is a 16 year stroke survivor, and had started to have balance issues resulting in several falls at his assisted living facility. Kelly and Cindy have worked together to implement safety strategies as well as "outside the box" thinking to come up with solutions for problems that were previously thought unsolvable! We are so very appreciative!

Gaitway of Charlotte has done an excellent job with my physical therapy during recovery. Joanne is holistic in her approach to healing the physical and staying in tune with the mental aspect of recovery. I recommend this company to anyone in need of great Home Physical Therapy. They go beyond the call of duty!

Alison and Gaitway truly helped my recovery after a major cardiac event. I was the type of patient who wanted to push boundaries, timelines, and limits, and Alison worked WITH me in balancing those desires with my new physical realities. When parts of my case were not textbook, she researched further to provide me with the best plan. I highly recommend Alison and Gaitway.

Kelly was so professional and has working with my aunt several times after illness'. She is persistent and patient working with elderly people. Highly recommend her!

As an employee of Gaitway of Charlotte, I love working with my clients and families who are very motivated to get better and improve the quality of life of their loved one. Alison allows for a great work/life balance and rewards her employees for their hard work. Great company and great boss!

The team at Gaitway has helped me feel much better about my recovery process. After falling off a roof and breaking multiple bones, my main concern has been regaining my physical abilities so that I can get back to work and provide for my family, not to mention the litany of day-to-day activities involved in taking care of myself. Alison, Brook, and Melinda have worked with me to instill the confidence that, with patience and practice, I will be back to normal function before I know it.

Wow! Thank you Gaitway - specifically Alison, Brooke and JoAnn -for the kindness, patience and great bedside manner that you all had to get my basically bed-ridden mother up and around the house again. My mom likes very few people initially but she really likes this team. She listens to Alison and considers her very knowledgeable. Alison has gotten her to do things that I have not been able to get my mom to do, even after many years of trying. We have made so much progress in less than two months. I can't wait to see what Mom will accomplish going forward. Many thanks Gaitway!

My 88 year old mother lives at The Pines in a independent living apartment. She fell and broke her femur. After her hospital stay, she was sent to a health care rehabilitation facility. During the first few days of rehabilitation, she developed pneumonia and was sent back to the hospital. The doctor attending my mother in the hospital told me, " my mother was old and should not go back to the rehabilitation facility". The doctor said
" she should go into a skilled care unit at The Pines and live out her life". My mother was adamant that she wanted to go back to her apartment and walk again. The doctor was very upset with me that I sent her back to rehabilitation and said " that it was a big mistake ".
After two more short stays in the hospital ( other illnesses ), my mother went back to the Pines and was placed in the skilled care unit.
At that time I was given the name of Gaitway.
The person that recommended Gaitway said they had seen their therapist work miracles. Alison's team worked diligently with my mother. Kelly, the physical therapist and Cindy the occupational therapist worked tirelessly getting my mom back on her feet. Their constant encouragement and strategies worked wonders for my mother's strength.

My mother's, desire and Gaitway care, professionalism, and knowledge made it possible for my mother to walk again and be back in her apartment.
Elizabeth F Charlotte NC

We are so impressed with the level of care at Gaitway. My mom has dementia and all of the therapists that have worked with her have been beyond kind, compassionate and patient. Allison is on top of everything and communication is never lacking. They work with my dad too, who's a grumpy old man, lol, and have been wonderful with him. I would give them 10 stars if I could. A first class operation!! Thanks Allison, Melinda, Brook and Kristine!

My mother's, desire and Gaitway care, professionalism, and knowledge made it possible for my mother to walk again and be back in her apartment.

I’m Italian and live in Tuscany. I had the experience to live the last years of my mom’s life who had a brain injury three years before dying. They have been the most difficult years of her and my life.I would have liked to be helped by Alison and her team: she’s so experienced about everything people like my mother and me have to pass through and so sympathetic that if you’re in the situation I was and you live near by, don’t hesitate and call her as soon as you can.
Thank you Alison, been and talking with you just a few hours made me feeling better

I was referred to Gaitway from our physician after my Mom broke her pelvis. We needed an in-home evaluation to help with her mobility on a walker (which kind and size was best- we had the wrong height and type), to teach her how to safely move and position herself for greater comfort, and to help Mom with bathroom needs and assistive equipment ... Allison was so incredibly helpful with vast experience to draw from! I just wish she had come the day I brought her home! I can not recommend home PT from a very experienced person highly enough. Allison at Gaitway was exactly that and more! She made a difficult situation so much better and gave us a sense of control when we had not necessarily know what was best! Thank you so much for such excellent and prompt care. Oh, the followup was amazing also!

Gaitway of Charlotte is truly amazing at what they do. They provided physical therapy to my mother after she fractured her pelvis. Her recovery has been remarkable under their care. I especially would like to recognize Kelly. She kept me in the loop on a weekly basis and could not have been nicer. Highly recommend Gaitway.

We contracted with Gaitway to provide physical and speech therapy for my 86 year old father. Based on our experience -- I would highly recommend them!

Even though my father is non-ambulatory, Kelly and Diane, the physical therapists, have never given up on him. They work extremely hard to help him strengthen and stretch his muscles. They have trained the family and his caregivers on ways to transfer him and provided exercises to do with him.

Annie, the speech therapist, helped identify a serious issue my father was having with swallowing. We followed her advice and took him for a swallow test, and based on the results and recommendations, his coughing/choking fits have been greatly reduced. She has also worked with him to improve his speech, which was impacted by a stroke years ago.

It's really amazing to see the progress my father has made since the Gaitway team has been looking out for him. These ladies are so patient, caring, and go way over and beyond! I cannot say enough positive things about them and the entire team!
