  • I have been going to Vertex PT Specialists in Cayce for the last couple of years for various issues, last year for "pre-hab" prior to total joint hip replacement, and rehab following surgery, and recently for a pinched nerve in my neck. I have worked with Drs. Brandon Vaughn, Sydney Vanlandingham, Katie Bailey, and Kilian Daughtry. Each therapist is excellent, a good listener and communicator, empathetic, and motivating. I was very comfortable working with each of them, and highly recommend all of them. The front desk staff are also great to work with, very responsive.

    I recently finished around 3 months of physical therapy here. The staff here is impressive, and not simply because they’re knowledgeable, but mainly because they genuinely care about your well-being. I primarily worked with Erin who was nothing short of incredible. She took a very tailored approach to my care and adjusted my exercises and workouts as needed based on our conversations and her professional observations. I was definitely skeptical of physical therapy when I began, but I can confidently say that with real professionals like the staff at Vertex, you will definitely get better.

    I could not be more pleased with the results I have had working with Erin to alleviate hip and lower back pain. The Vertex staff are all friendly. The PT specialists are well qualified, knowledgeable and encouraging. The facility is clean, bright and spacious and has plenty of equipment to provide a variety of options to address all physical therapy issues. I highly recommend Vertex as the best place to go any time you need physical therapy.

    My son had a hamstring strain that recurred when he tried to return to sprinting on the field and it cost him most of his lacrosse season. We ended up seeing Brandon Vaughn at Vertex thinking active release treatment. Brandon quickly identified that ART wouldn’t benefit him and found a strength deficit In the hamstring(hip extension v. knee flexion). Brandon set up a strength and stretching program to get him back to normal. He also worked with him on sprinting drills and helped him progress to pain free sprinting. He gave him a plan to help keep him injury free in the future. If you (or your child) need help returning to the field or court I cannot recommend Brandon enough.

  • Vertex PT Specialists is an exceptional place to obtain structured physical therapy. This was my first experience in trying physical therapy to address my lower back issues which had not responded well to other treatments. I worked with Brandon who is incredibly knowledgeable and a great listener. His targeted therapy plan and his caring approach helped keep me motivated. All of the staff at Vertex are welcoming and professional. I highly recommend this facility and especially Brandon. Vertex PT is the real deal.

    I highly recommend Vertex PT to anyone that needs physical therapy after a surgery. In my case, I underwent a pretty serious shoulder surgery, and was in physical therapy for about 5 months. The attention to detail and genuine care I experienced at Vertex was amazing. Tori and Killian were my main PTs - they were extremely knowledgeable, kind, and I looked forward to seeing them every week. They helped me recover safely, efficiently, and pushed me to get stronger too. In my opinion, 1 on 1 physical therapy is therapy is the way to go, and if I ever need physical therapy again, I’ll be sure put myself back on the schedule with them. You’re in good hands at Vertex!!!

    I came to therapy unable to walk without limping and unable to sleep in anything but a recliner. I can now walk, sit, kneel and stand without pain. My balance has improved exponentially as well as my confidence. The level of caring and expertise is on a higher level than I have ever experienced in physical therapy. I will never be able to thank them enough for regaining function and the ability to have back daily quality of life.

    Vertex is an awesome PT facility. I just completed my 3rd PT series and would highly recommend this business. Kilian is an excellent PT - just starting out with his career. He has a great ‘bedside’ manner, and is very caring and attentive.

  • I’m very active in the gym and I’ve had a hamstring strain for almost a year. I have literally tired everything you could think of to cure my issue, a chiropractor, another PT place and my doctor recommended this place to me. I was hesitant at first since I already had a bad experience with PT but Killian at Vertex PT knows his stuff and was very informative. He gave me multiple exercises to do that helped me tremendously along with dry needling which was a game changer for the tightness and pain in my hamstring. If you’re looking for good quality 1 on 1 physical therapy I can’t recommend this place enough. Save your time and money by coming here and they’ll take care of you. Thanks again Killian and the staff at PT for making this process way less depressing and boring. (Only tip I’d say is to make sure to cancel your appointment 24 hours prior (if you need to) as there is a late cancellation fee).

    Brandon is awesome! I came in with hip pain that was getting in the way of my lifting and staying active. He quickly figured out what was going on and helped me get back to moving pain-free. I really appreciate that he focused on getting me to discharge day quickly—not just keeping me as a patient. It’s clear he genuinely cares about helping people heal and get back to doing what they love. I hope to never see you again, at least as a patient, but if needed I know where I’ll go! Highly recommend! Thank you, Brandon and Vertex Team!

    I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Vertex PT Specialists – 12th Street. I started working with my physical therapist, Tori, back in November, and she has been absolutely outstanding every step of the way. Over the winter, she helped rehab my lower body, focusing heavily on mobility and isolation techniques that were specifically tailored to my needs. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, I saw real, meaningful improvement. One of the standout features of Vertex is the facility itself — it's spacious, well-equipped, and offers plenty of room for exercises that most PT centers simply don’t have the space to accommodate. This environment has made a huge difference in my rehabilitation journey, allowing me to work on a wider range of movements and techniques. I recently returned to continue working with Tori, this time focusing on my back and shoulders. Once again, she has gone above and beyond. Her personalized approach has not only made me stronger and more mobile, but she's also given me the tools and knowledge to build better posture and long-term body health. Tori is empathetic, encouraging, and keeps each session fast-paced and productive — a rare and refreshing combination. I would highly recommend Tori and the entire team at Vertex PT Specialists to anyone looking for a PT clinic that truly cares about your progress and overall well-being. They are top-notch professionals, and I'm grateful to have found them.
