I had a wonderful experience at Amity PT. Joel and Luke were professional and personable. They listened to you. They offered good suggestions outside of my routine treatment. The front desk and assistants were great. State of the Art facility with a nice view of Whitney Ave. I looked forward to coming to my appointments which sounds crazy! But most of all the PT worked! I'm all done but was told I can stop in anytime I feel I need a tuneup. No insurance issues... all around pleasant experience which really helps when you come in having pain. read more

I had an outstanding experience at Amity Physical Therapy center in Hamden and I highly recommend them to anyone who is seeking quality care. I needed to improve my gait and balance and later be treated for lower back pain. Rob, Lucas and the entire staff were knowledgeable, professional and compassionate which was indicated by how genuinely they cared about their patients. The front-desk staff was friendly and accommodating when scheduling appointments around a challenging work schedule. My progress was always closely monitored and my treatment plan adjusted to make sure that my recovery stayed on track. This personalized approach made a huge difference in my improvement and keeping each session effective, resulting in me having more confidence and experiencing less pain in performing my daily activities. I am so grateful for the care I received from the staff at this center that I would not consider going to any other facility for my physical therapy needs. read more

This places is poorly managed. You're lucky if you spend 10 minutes with a physical therapist. They mostly just pass you off to the assistants who will have you do an exercise on your own. One day the road in front of the facility was closed for repairs and no body reached out to inform clients. read more

I've been to a few physical therapy places and this is definitely one of the better ones. Joel was great - knowledgeable and friendly. He gave me insight into my condition that has really helped me be aware of how I'm moving and what is going to be good or bad for it. The whole staff there was very friendly. I'm definitely feeling better than before I went. My only complaint (to be fair this often seems to be the case in PT places) is that you get juggled around between different people throughout your session, only spending a few minutes with the lead therapist. I get that it may be more "efficient" for them to run that way, but when I found myself explaining to people that they were setting up my machine wrong or that I already knew how to do an exercise because I'd done it the session before, it gets a bit annoying that you're not with one or two people that know your case better. However, that aside overall I was happy and I got results, so i would go back if I need to. read more

I love Amity Physical Therapy in Hamden! From the welcome greeting and quick check-in with Judy at the front desk to the kind and compassionate manner of Emily who very professionally ascertains information about my condition to Joel who treats me with compassion and respect while expertly evaluating, diagnosing, and treating my condition. I don't just have pain, I am a bit of a pain yet the whole group keeps me working towards improving my condition with a laugh or two and genuine concern for improving my condition. I cannot emphasize enough how great it is to work with such a friendly, professional group of people! read more

I recommend absolutely avoiding this place. This "health care provider" is so awful that they send letters to people who write unfavorable reviews threatening to sue them unless they delete the bad review! I've never heard of that with any other business. Would you want to pay to go to health care provider that's looking for chances to sue you?! Smh. That's enough said but if anyone wants to know more, I have found that they give you an exercise and then disappear. Then when you finish, you have to go hunting for someone to get the next exercise, over and over. I've noticed that they tend to stand around in a group in a far corner of the place not really watching you to see if you're doing exercises properly, and not making sure other people there don't come close to you in this time of required 6 foot separation. The assistants (who seem to be unpaid interns) are the ones bringing you (or not) through your exercise routines. Offen they say bizzare instructions that make no sense and contradict what another one says. For example, one will set a bike for 10 minutes. Then another one comes by after 8 minutes and says suddenly to get off the bike and go to a weight machine. Then another one says to go to a completely different area instead. one will say to do an exercise differently than another one says. Also a lot of time is wasted waiting for machines or rooms. They'll say to go to a room to use a machine, and you might have to wait 10 minutes for the room just standing there wasting time when you could be doing other exercises. Also they don't have changing rooms so you have to change in the rest room, which has no hooks or chairs read more

I've been to Physical Therapy multiple times in my life, and I have never received such poor care. I was with the Physical Therapist for maybe 5 minutes for the few visits that I was there. The rest of the time I was working with aides who most of the time did not know what they were doing. I had one of them even ask me how to use the electrical stimulation machine when they are the ones who work there!! I also had the aides put the electrical stimulation pads on top of my incisions, which made my stitches feel like they were going to be ripped out. Not a pleasant feeling AT ALL. When I was given my exercises the PT's almost never looked over to check up on me to see how I was doing (as well as other people in the room that I could see) or if I was doing my exercises correctly. I had an injury to my leg but yet was told to do biceps curls..... Maybe this is just me, but working on two different parts of the body doesn't seem like an effective rehabilitation to me. As a young and motivated individual, I felt as if I was just someone in a textbook instead of someone's patient. I felt like the exercises did not pertain to me, but rather just read off of a script and given to me. There was no individualized treatment or attention. I will say that everyone was beyond nice and friendly, but I just did not feel the treatment that I was given was up to any rational standards. read more

Think Joel and the staff are terrific and very knowledgeable with the treatment protocols for each client. But what is most impressive is the friendliness yet professionalism of each team member . I've been in treatment for six weeks and have seen marked improvement with my condition. The facility is well equipped for all treatment modalities and is well kept. Parking is convenient . Great place to get better!!!!!thanks. read more

I've had several issues needing PT, and I have found Amity PT to be the best group. They are hands-on and committed to helping a patient recover and be active again. They use a blend of exercises and therapy and really understand how the body works. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more
