Performance Spine & Sports Physicians P.C.

"Hands down the best physicians around. Dr Lichten is the best doctor I have ever had - caring, kind and a master of his work. Dr Dankmyer is another physician I can’t say enough good things about. Truly a professional and someone who makes you feel comfortable every single time. I recommend this office to anyone. They are, by far, the BEST."

"As down to earth as you can get. Kate is pleasant, extremely knowledgeable, and on top of everything! I’ve never had to wait for more than a couple minutes to be seen. In and out in no time! Kate creates appropriate course of treatment options, and follow through. Can’t be more pleased!!! Thank you Kate!"

"Kathryn took the time to listen to me, answer my questions and address my concerns. She reviewed test results and educated me when other didn't feel it was important. Other offices made me feel I was limited in my recovery and disregarded my concerns and feelings, Kathryn validated them, gave me choices and helped me make a plan of recovery. She allowed me to have a voice and remembered I'm a human being instead of a number."

"I’ve been dealing with a painful back issue for a year. I’ve had an MRI, X-rays, physical therapy, done chiropractics and saw two physicians. My quality of life was diminished and I was no longer able to be physically fit and active. Chronic pain can be very depressing. I made an appointment with Performance Spine after reading good reviews, hopeful but not really expecting much. Dr. Waverka had reviewed my history in detail prior to stepping into the exam room. She examined and explained my test results, something the other practitioners didn’t, and she REALLY LISTENED to me, my symptoms and my hopes for a healthy future without pain.. She presented me with an immediate treatment plan of action with options. She gave me real expectations and hope for improvement and a better quality of life. I am feeling so much more myself than I have for the past year. I am finally seeing the end of this tunnel of back pain! I am so happy to have found this practice and specifically Dr. Kate. I’m only sorry I waited so long to make an appointment. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Waverka! Thank you so much!"

"As always treated with respect by all staff from reception to nurse to PA. Kate is outstanding. She listens to what I have to say and makes clear and understandable recommendations. She does not rush through things and makes me confident that she cares."
