You can't schedule an appointment. They don't answer their phones. It gets discouraging especially if you're in pain and need the services you're referred for from your doctor. I'd suggest another facility that will answer their phones and have more flexible hours. read more

The Staff is professional and friendly and have great techniques and treatments for your inury (ies).

Advanced Therapy Center Torrance is GREAT! The staff is very kind and responsive and scheduling is flexible! I broke my finger on the job and Dara helped me re-gain full motion. I was shocked at how quickly I was able to return to work! All thanks to Daras extensive experience and knowledge in occupational therapy. Definitely recommend! read more

This office is extremely difficult to get ahold of anyone to make an appointment. I've been calling for over a week all throughout the day during business hours. The number will ring a few times then place you through to a voicemail. Have yet to receive a call back. However, I did have the opportunity to attend one appointment. The office is a bit on the smaller size and showed its age. The front desk staff was friendly enough. While I was in the waiting room, a patient came in quite annoyed to say that he couldn't reach anyone on the phone and needed to change his appointment date, so that should of been a red flag. My therapist greeted me and escorted me to another room for our consultation. I was a bit surprised that another patient was being worked on in such tight quarters while we went through my health history. Once finished we went over to another room with all of their therapy equipment, again, it's tight quarters with a lot going on. My therapist seemed distracted or disinterested as she told me to stretch my legs out while holding a bar. As someone with a fair amount physical therapy history, I just have more experience with therapists who are explaining each stretch more thoroughly and how it will help. We went back to the first room where I laid down on a table and we went through more stretches. As I was leaving she printed out stretches she thought were appropriate and sent me to the front. In my experience in other offices, they'll usually provide you with stretch straps or bands when helpful to your needs, this office does not. I was advised to buy them on Amazon. My physician will be referring me out to another office. read more

I was referred to this facility for physical therapy by my primary care physician. While the treatment was satisfactory, I encountered several issues throughout my experience. My assigned therapist informed me she would be on vacation, so I was scheduled with a different therapist during her absence. The day after my session, I was contacted and informed that my driver's license and medical card had been inadvertently retained. These items could have been returned either at the end of my therapy session or when I scheduled my next appointment. A few hours prior to my next appointment I received a voicemail from Linda stating that my appointment had been canceled due to an emergency and needed to be rescheduled. Despite attempting to reach the office multiple times, I did not receive a return call back. While I understand that unforeseen situations can occur, I was disappointed by the lack of communication and professionalism from the staff. Given the overall experience, I have decided not to return due to the inadequate customer service provided and requested that my doctor request for treatment elsewhere. After reading some of the other reviews it appears other patients experienced similar issues. read more

Couldn't even get an appointment, no communication and very disorganized. Called repeatedly, finally spoke with someone was told they only do occupational therapy from 9am-1pm Monday through Friday. When I called to make an appointment for Friday was told the occupational therapist isn't there on Friday. read more

Advanced Therapy Center - Physical Therapy Near Me - Torrance, California

I was planning to go to this location but they don't answer the phone or return messages so I'd suggest a different location if you need P/T. read more

Good place to get PT done. I love the zap therapy (haha totally unsure of the name but feels good on my shoulder). 1 star knocked down because of wait times even with an appointment sometimes. Overall, pretty legit spot for physical therapy. read more

The speech therapy services are lacking. First of all, the room is plain, empty and no bigger than a small coat closet. I felt a bit claustrophobic. My first session was so short, like 10 minutes. It actually prompted me to asked him for the specifics regarding the number of minutes each session should be. Amith said that some days we might only have a few minutes based on my son's level of engagement. I can understand that, I could not understand why our first session was so short, my son was highly interested. It really felt like he just didn't want to work with my son. For the second session, Amith, the speech therapist, is nowhere to be found. My son was ready for his 11am appointment only to be told at 11:25am they cannot locate the therapist and the appointment will need to be rescheduled. Later my husband told me the therapist was late and they still had a session. I'm not sure how the lady on the phone didn't know he showed up late and started his session. Neither my husband nor I are speech therapists but we both felt like this therapist was making stuff up as he went along. Just not good vibes. The lack of professionalism caused me to immediate end my relationship. I'd rather wait for another location to have availability that caters to small children. read more

Have a good informative physical therapy session with Angie. She explained the importance and benefits of of each exercises for me to attain balance and strength on both knees.

In the last two months I was receiving physical therapy for my shoulder pain. I am grateful for Brian one of the therapist who was thoughtful and helpful. While assisting me with exercises and mild treatments such as ultrasound therapy. He made me feel important and his ability to perform the necessary hands on treatments. Showed me that he is very capable of treating pain yet being kind. I will miss this kind of therapy and care that I received. Thank you for your support and service in several ways. A welcoming place to be and receive the care one would appreciate. Give them a call. read more

I really like this place except for one thing. Most of my calls go to voice mail and there's no pattern as to when someone won't pick up. I've left messages in the past and maybe once did a receptionist call me back. read more

Today is my 2nd physical therapy session. I am very thankful that this therapy center is available on Saturday morning. However, you have to set your schedule early because they are booked quickly. Angeline and other staff are great and very helpful! I would recommend this therapy center definitely. read more

I was recommended through Kaiser for my 4 year old! Recommend Ms. Lilly! She is awesome! My son loves her! She is very patient and pleasant. My son has so much fun and doesn't even realize that he's in therapy! The program that she developed for my son really helps with his listening, following instructions and memory! I wish I came here sooner! I highly recommend for children! read more

Great friendly staff and effort to help patients get better. They give more time than most places. Angie is always so sweet every time I get treatment with her. I definitely recommend this physical therapy place :) read more

I'm thoroughly disappointed to say that after going to the new location today (Hawthorne & Lomita Blvd), that I most likely will not continue my OT therapy there, even though the therapists are good. The new location is a downgrade from the previous location...it is like the size of a closet!!! It is cramped and I had no privacy with two other patients 3 ft. apart from me. Is this move to the new location to save money or lose money from all the clients that won't come back? read more

The receptionist Stephanie is is so nice and the therapists are amazing especially Byron, Angie and all the therapist.

My teenage son injured his hand. He started at another OT facility but wasn't making progress. His surgeon said Heather is the best hand occupational therapist in the South Bay. My son started with Heather and progressed. His hand will never be 100%, but that's to be expected due to his injury. We were very happy with the facility, services and treatment. I 100% recommend them. read more

Quality care in a nice, clean facility. Staff are professional and kind, overall good place!

I was have been calling their number trying to get an appointment for over a month. My doctor who referred has been calling and no one answers the phone. This is the worst place ever. The people in the front are rude. I'm not a new patient I'm a returning patient. They made me get a new authorization because it was new year and now I'm having trouble like I was the first time. DO NOT GO HERE! read more

They do not answer their telephone and did not return messages left for a call back. I cannot recommend them.

My first visit was great. My hand and arm reacted well to the treatment. Looking forward to more sessions!

The Center specializes in hand rehab/therapy so I am so glad my surgeon referred me here. I came here for some physical therapy after having carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand. My thumb pad had atrophied because of this, so my hand and grip was very weak. You first come into the office for full assessment and then they determine your course of treatment and how often you come. Kim did my assessment and was my lead therapist for the first part of my therapy. I came two times a week, and rarely had to wait for my appointment. I had a mix of heat treatments, strength exercises, ultrasound and massage. She was wonderful to work with and very skilled at this work. When Kim left on maternity leave, I was handed over to Katie who was also very good. I had therapy for about 2 months and had great improvement in my strength and flexibility in my hand. The entire office staff and therapy assistants were all helpful and pleasant. I would highly recommend the Center to anyone needing these types of rehab. read more

I broke my finger and decided to go to Advanced Therapy Center for Occupational Therapy. I saw Perri every week along with her student Nicole. I can't say enough good things about my experience.

Best hand physical therapist in Torrance. I cut my flexor tendons on a piece of glass and had 3 surgeries and 2 other hand therapists before finding Advanced Therapy Center. Mo the hand therapist is absolutely amazing. I am so glad I can move my hand again. I cannot imagine using another hand therapist. I recommend Mo to anyone that has sustained a hand, shoulder, or arm injury. She helped Chris Paul from the Clippers recover from his thumb injury. She specializes in rehabilitating athletes. read more

Best hand therapist in Los Angeles. After being a bartender for way too long, I realized that I was experiencing pains in my hands. I found Mo by hitting the Internet and searching for best hand therapist in Los Angeles, (that's the way you have to get it done these days.) SO glad that I now have ways to help with my pain and give my body some help too. Mo is the best in Los Angeles and now I can work those 9 hours, no problem. ;) AND on the way out from one of my appoinments, I saw signed pictures from some Los Angeles Clippers players. Pretty cool. read more

Best hand related physical therapist in the South Bay. Known and recommended by Hand surgeons from UCLA to the South bay. A professional privately owned practice not owned by a doctors where the patient comes first. In my case, I came in with a hand injury that was diagnosed by Mo Herman the Hand Therapist to be a combination of injury and Dupuytren's Contracture or "Vikings Hand". I went and had surgery at UCLA followed by hand therapy at Advanced Therapy Center by Mo Herman. I had positive results based on the premise to fix it and move on. If you want it done right, use this Physical Therapist practice. read more

Mo is the best ! With her therapy I achieved 140 degree range of motion in my arm which was 20 degrees more than was expected from my surgeon. At every visit with Mo there was increased range of motion .. Thank you Mo. read more

What a team of dedicated therapists! I have been to several clinics in the Los Angeles area and I'd have to say that Mo and her staff of therapists are the best in LA, and it's not even close. They have tremendous experience and are great about setting up appointments around my schedule! Plus, not only do they provide amazing therapy that's centered around the client, they educated me about what's going on with my hand and gave me exercises to do at home. I attribute my recovery to them, thanks advanced therapy center! read more

This place is making me better. I wish I could have the same person for continual care instead of being asked what treatment I need when I show up. It is difficult to have 3 people in one visit. read more

I fractured my left ring finger and had surgery to set the bone with an external fixater. The day after surgery I started P.T. with Mo and the gang. They are all consummate professionals. I have regained most of the range of motion in my finger due mainly to Mo's hard work and encouragement, and the help of her staff. I couldn't recommend Advanced P.T. more highly. read more

My cast by Brand "X" Therapy slipped off my finger 4 times, setting my recovery back several months. Kim from Advanced Therapy Center fitted me perfectly with a new cast. It stayed in place the required 8 weeks and was much more comfortable with less pain. I highly endorse Advanced Therapy Center as their entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I wish I had come to see Mo and Kim initially as my recovery would have been months earlier. I rate them with 6+ stars but the maximum is 5. Randall T. read more

I was referred to Advanced Therapy Center by my hand surgeon, Dr. Shin at Kerlan Jobe. He had great things to say about Mo, and her office was also conveniently located about 15 mins from my house. They were very accommodating from the start, getting me into their office to start therapy only 2 days after I was referred. I was always able to get scheduled in to see Mo 2x a week, even with her busy schedule. (Thanks to Kendra, the Office Manager) I had a torn ligament in my thumb. I literally could not move my thumb at the first session, and by my final session after 6 weeks of therapy, I had close to full range of motion back in my thumb. Therapy sessions generally consisted of warming up the hand and joints, then massage therapy and mobilization of the joint, followed by various exercises. I wanted to do a lot of therapy on my own, so I could really speed the recovery process. So, in addition to all the work Mo did with me in therapy sessions, she worked with me to give me the exercises I could do on my own at home. Giving feedback, answering questions, and guiding me on the home therapy I did . If you really want to see the results from therapy, you have to be willing to do the homework. I'd say for every 1 hour session with Mo, I would do 5 hours of therapy on my own. My injury was to my dominant hand, and I really wanted to regain full range of motion and strength. I researched surgery recovery and therapy a lot, and from what I've read, the first several months are the most important, so scar tissue can be broken down and mobility restored. And you have to be willing to continue the therapy on your own after therapy. If you don't, you will not get the best results possible, no matter how good the therapist. Overall, it was a fantastic environment to receive therapy: Mo and her staff were focused and professional. I have done various therapy for sports injuries in the past, and many of my experiences were in larger PT offices, where you often get assigned to therapists right out of college, that either aren't as focused as they should be on the patient, or are still trying out new things they learned and dont seem to have much of a plan for therapy. Mo's office was the opposite, extremely attentive and had a detailed plan for my therapy. I would highly recommend Advanced Therapy Center to anyone that needs hand therapy. read more

I recently had a major injury to my trigger finger and had to have surgery. Mo helped me rehab my finger back to 100 percent. I thought for sure my finger was going to be messed up for life which would have really sucked because i would not be able to do my job at work. Mo definitely went the extra mile in making sure my hand would heal right. If you ever have any hand or wrist issues mo is your go to person. Lots of pro athletes on the clippers go there. read more
