Who is Greg Welch, and why does everyone want to see Him?

I’m the #1 shoulder pain expert in Pinecrest, FL. Born in Trinidad and Tobago, I moved to Miami in 1981 where I was a keen sportsman in high school – I was a swimmer and water polo player. Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved sports.

I became a therapist because I wanted to make a difference, I wanted to work in the sports recovery field and help people get out of pain and return to the sports and activities they love most.

I started my career in orthopedics where I worked in the field for several years. In 2007, I bought Progressive Therapy Center, a physical and occupational therapy clinic specializing in outpatient orthopedics. The decision to establish my own practice was made after I grew disenfranchised with the sub-standard level of care larger facilities provided to their patients. I wanted to add personalized care to my treatment plans and treat every patient as a person, rather than a number.

The clinic is known for treating all manner of shoulder injuries and we have helped many people regain mobility and function.

 

What is Greg Welch's life like away from being Pinecrest's shoulder pain expert?

My wife is also an occupational therapist who works with our patients and a one-to-one basis. Together, we have two children: my son, Steven, and my daughter, Sasha, who are 29 and 26 respectively.

I believe Progressive Therapy is different from other clinics in the area because we foster a family-orientated, fun, and calming atmosphere. We’re highly targeted and patient-focused, ensuring we make a real difference in people’s lives.

Outside of clinical hours, I stay active by taking part in various sports. I’ve coached soccer and water polo teams, and right now, I’m playing pickleball and doing Orangetheory Fitness – a group fitness class that combines strength and cardio training to help you burn calories and build muscle. Doing this helps me understand my patients’ goals – they want to get back to playing sports, spending time with their families, and returning to their daily activities.

At Progressive Therapy, we make that happen. We provide an amazing atmosphere, hands-on manual therapy, and excellent results for our patients.

what makes Greg Welch Different?

I became known as the leading shoulder pain expert in Pinecrest because we do things differently. We don’t just set people up with the same routine for every treatment, we take a more targeted approach with each session and each exercise. We ask, “What do you need today? How can we help you progress and get one step closer to your goal?”

We also listen to our patients and understand their unique needs. Patients want to feel heard, understood, and that their concerns are taken seriously. Instead of setting you up with a generic routine of exercises, we delve deep into the inner workings of your joints and muscles to figure out what’s going on beyond the pain you’re experiencing so we can get you closer to your goal.

Another key differentiator is the hands-on manual therapy we provide. We put our hands on our patients to mobilize, massage, and stretch, so we can really get a sense of what’s going on with your body. Other therapists may take a back-seat approach to your care but we don’t believe this is the best way to achieve long-lasting results. For Progressive Therapy, the focus is on improving your pain from day one so that we can work on addressing the root cause – rather than simply relying on a set of exercises without actually applying manual therapy techniques.

Another way we’re different is that we get results that last. We help people of all ages and abilities return to sports, resume their work, and live pain-free because they’re set up on an effective routine that is easy to implement in their daily lives.
