I saw Dr. Anar for a severe issue with my neck, traps, and upper back. The results were immediate. By the following day, my pain was down to almost zero.Since that initial recovery, we have shifted focus to posture, mobility, and range of motion. He is highly professional and actually listens. He stays focused on my specific goals and addresses every concern I bring up. I highly recommend him if you want a PT who delivers measurable results.

I’ve had a great experience working with Anar. He’s very attentive and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend to anyone considering a physical therapist.

Dr. Aliev has been a tremendous help in my recovery. His assessments, treatment plans, and recovery exercises have all helped me. He takes the time to explain exercises, uses various tools to help with recovery, and listens to any questions or concerns I have. Would highly recommend

Anar is the best PT I've ever worked with. As a former collegiate - and now pro - athlete, I've seen my fair share of injuries. Anar looks at rehabilitation holistically, focusing on MUCH more than just the point of injury. I'm confident every time that I walk in that he is going to listen and make positive adjustments. His approach is highly specialized to the individual, his ability to offer modifications is unparalleled, and his knowledge of body mechanics is off the charts!

I highly recommend Dr. Aliev at Pocket Physio! Pulled a bad injury playing soccer, and Dr. Aliev did a proper assessment, identified issues that I was facing and tailor made my plan of care, and the pain I was dealing with went down immediately while also incorporating current day evidence based practices in his treatment and care to help strengthen the surrounding area of my injury. I’ve been to other PT spots and they cannot compare to Dr. Aliev. It’s an absolute pleasure to be under his care and be treated with such professionalism and expertise!

Anar is the man! He not only helped me rehab a really badly sprained ankle, but showed me where the weaknesses in my legs were that led the injury, and taught me exercises to correct them and prevent future injuries. Because of Anar I was able to recover in time to run the NYC marathon. I’m forever grateful and I fully recommend Anar to anyone looking for a patient, empathetic expert in their corner.

My experience at pocket physical with Dr. Aliev has been the best! It was super quick and easy to book, location convenient and the space is amazing ! My progress and results after my elbow surgery have been wonderful, and I credit that to Dr. Aliev and the team at pocket physio!

Dr. Anar literally put me back together. I came to him after years of sitting and bad posture and lifting weights with poor form. He spent time with me not only focusing on structural and postural changes, but he helped me overhaul my at-home workspace, my mattress & pillow choices and everything else that contributes to a healthy environment. The 6 months that I spent seeing Dr. Anar will benefit me for the rest of my life.

I followed Anar from my last PT place where he helped me with all sorts of issues I was dealing with post having my first baby. An ankle and foot injury that turned into a series of issues, Anar was so thoughtful and amazing to work with to help me get back to feeling like my old self. Now me and my husband recently visited for our lower back pain and Anar put us right into a great plan of strength and stretching exercises. He takes his time to listen to you and really comes up with a custom plan of care that you just don’t receive at other PT places now a days!!

Anar is amazing, he knows his stuff and is very fun and Charismatic. He helped me out a lot and really pushed me. After my ACL surgery I thought I was done from playing basketball very hard the way I would and he didn't take it easy on me and kept pushing me to make that full recovery.

2025-10-24T13:49:08.428Z

Anar was great! He helped relieve my shoulder pain and explained everything clearly. Very professional, knowledgeable, and caring, highly recommend!

2025-10-23T16:15:28.982Z

So lucky to have found Anar following my knee surgery! He worked with me to create a plan to get back to working out and feeling myself again. Not only a great PT, but a great person who cares about getting his patients back to full strength. Highly recommend for athletes looking to recover and build back their strength!

I can spot an exceptional PT when I see one, having had numerous orthopedic surgeries and being in PT for years. Dr Anar is the best of the best. I can confidently say this after years and years of being treated by different providers. I had the distinct pleasure of rehabbing my shoulder and knee over the course of more than a year with Dr Anar. I don’t think we ever repeated an exercise. Dr Anar is extremely creative and finds brilliant ways to challenge new movements and target new muscles. Beyond this, Dr Anar has excellent bedside manner and makes you feel like he’s not just a medical provider, but someone who listens even outside of that scope. If you are looking for a new PT - stop right now and book Dr Anar. You’ll absolutely thank the random stranger on the internet that told you to.

Before I went to Anar, I felt like there was no way I could ever heal. I had tried many physical therapists who kept giving me the same advice that kept on making my injury worse. But after being lucky enough to work with Anar, not only did my injury heal, I haven't gotten any significant injury since, as he gave me workouts to do past my healing to keep me strong. I am super grateful for Anar and how he shows genuine care and interest in his patients, something I haven't felt to the same degree with many other physical therapists. Anar gave me the tools to build myself back from injury, and I can't recommend anyone better to go to if you are dealing with physical problems.

I was struggling for a long time with knee pain after having two knee surgeries over a decade ago. I’ve done PT after the surgery, did everything right then life kind of happened and over time my knee became worse and would always give me pain. To compensate the weight bearing on my bad knee when playing sports, I had to distribute weight unevenly and it threw off my body mechanics which led to back pains and I just kind of thought with age this is the new normal. I am so glad I met Anar and when I explained to him my situation, he told me it’s never too late to get treatment so I took a chance and I couldn’t be happier. I am able to play basketball and run without pain now and that’s just something I thought was not possible anymore. Pocket Physio is amazing and Anar went above and beyond to help me. Thank you!!!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Anar for several different injuries over the years, including recovery from a major hip surgery, and I can’t recommend him highly enough.Anar’s knowledge, patience, and attention to detail make a huge difference in every session. He always takes the time to understand what’s going on with my body and tailors each exercise to my specific needs and recovery stage. His approach is both professional and encouraging. He knows how to push just enough to help you make progress without ever overdoing it.Thanks to Anar’s expertise, I’ve regained strength, mobility, and confidence after setbacks that I thought would take much longer to overcome. Whether you’re rehabbing from surgery, managing chronic pain, or just working through everyday injuries, Anar is exactly the kind of physical therapist you want.

2025-10-23T00:29:43.983Z

I have been a patient of Dr Anar for years. He was able to help me through so many injuries without the need for surgery. There is no PT more willing to sacrifice his time and energy into healing people the way he does. I have been recommending him to everyone I can.

2025-10-22T13:44:19.642Z

I am a personal trainer based in Brooklyn and I send most of my clients to Dr. Anar. He not only gets them results, but he does so in a private one on one space. My clients love it.

2025-10-08T13:58:27.772Z

I can’t recommend Anar enough! He’s an incredibly professional and attentive physical therapist who truly cares about his clients’ progress. He takes the time to understand your needs and always goes the extra mile to make sure you’re performing your best. What I really appreciated during my time with him is how he finds the perfect balance between support and challenge, pushing you to excel while keeping your goals realistic and safe. I’ve learned a lot about my physical abilities and how to push myself in the right way. He’s helped me become a stronger, more confident version of myself.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I can’t recommend Pocket Physio enough. Dr. Anar is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about his patients’ progress. The whole team creates a welcoming environment that makes every session enjoyable and productive.I came in for sports-related physical therapy and was so impressed by how personalized the treatment plan was. Dr. Anar really takes the time to explain everything and focus on proper form and recovery. I’ve noticed a huge improvement in both my strength and mobility.If you’re in Brooklyn and need a physical therapist who truly understands sports injuries and performance, this is the place to go.

I received the best treatment there for mi e frozen shoulders. The office was very clean and well organized. Definitely will recommend to anyone who is dealing with pain.

2025-10-07T14:36:32.416Z

So thankful that this office has been added to the community. I treated at a different location with the same PT and transferred care to this location with Dr. Anar following an ACL repair. He is thoughtful and very deliberate in his treatment plan. Spends actual time with you as the patient and provides personalized care. Whether you want to return to your active lifestyle or just a baseline of living pain-free, he will get you there.The facility is clean and well maintained. This place is simply the best! Highly recommend coming here — and you have the added bonus of supporting a small business owner!
