They paid a lot of attention to detail, listened to my feedback and worked with me to make my body stronger and rehabilitated quickly. Staff were all very friendly and funny. I enjoyed coming here to catch up with employees and hear about their latest happenings. They have vast amounts of exercises and variations to get you back into tip top shape at Bellevue Physical Therapy. I used elastic bands, TRX, electrical muscle stimulation, ice, physio balls, dumbbells, and more. I will definitely come back here if I ever need physical therapy again (knock on wood!).

Be Aware! If you are sent here to validate your physical fitness as part of a hiring process, make…read moresure that the receptionist likes you. The receptionist did not like the questions I asked when they rescheduled my appointment, which were reasonable if a bit pointed. Bellevue Physical Therapy subsequently communicated to my prospective employer that in their opinion I was rude. I find it extremely unprofessional and unethical for Bellevue Physical Therapy to inject their negative opinion of my personality as their customer into a conversation with my prospective employer regarding my physical fitness for an offered position, which is the only thing they were paid to evaluate.

I have used MTI Physical Therapy for two/three separate issues/injuries…read more Shoulder - Years back, I had a shoulder injury and worked with Michael Okada for about 2 months. He was able to diagnose some improper shoulder mechanics that eventually led to my injury and help me through a training program (and education) to strengthen and essentially re-teach my body to properly displace weight properly. My shoulder strength is much stronger now and I also now strength train with much better form when doing chest and shoulder workouts without the shoulder strain I used to get. Ankle pain - I went in for a Running Analysis with Robin McGuire. Two separate sessions, one for initial review and second for analysis and go forward plan. She was able to help diagnose certain areas that were lacking flexibility and strength that were causing a bit of ankle pain even in shorter 2-3 mile runs. With the training and strength program, it definitely helped me increase my runs and eventually get to the half marathon race I was aiming for 2 months later. Hamstring/Lower Leg Injury - Sadly only a month after my Half Marathon race (July 2025), I badly injured my leg/back due during a furniture moving accident. To the point where I was not even able to walk without intense pain or limping for about 2 weeks. I went back to Robin and we had to completely revamp my physical therapy program, as I still had hopes plans to do a Half Marathon in September, October, and then my first full Marathon in January 2026. Robin worked with me great, lots of education and helping diagnose a deeper variety of issues I had going on with my body mechanics that was beyond just the initial ankle injuries. A training program that modified as my mobility and strength built. Needless to say, I was able to do the two half marathons (first one was power walking), and actually run the entire Marathon in January which is impressive once again considering only 5-6 months prior I couldn't walk. The MTI Bellevue office has great hours and its a nice clean facility, front staff is always professional. Sessions always start on time. I highly recommend MTI Bellevue for any physical therapy and sports needs. I think all the team is great. I highly recommend Robin especially for anyone who is working on foundation/baseline for running.

Absolutely Outstanding!…read more I've dealt with patellar instability in my right knee for nearly eight years. Walking down stairs or going long distances was painful, and honestly, I was pretty skeptical that physical therapy would help. But Robin completely changed my mind. From the first session, Robin's expertise, patience, and genuine care were evident. She created a targeted plan to strengthen and stabilize my knee, and over time, I saw real results. For the first time in years, I can walk downstairs and cover long distances without pain. That's something I didn't think was possible. I'm incredibly grateful for her dedication and skill. Robin is simply awesome! Ask for her by name!

I would 100% recommend friends and family to RET Physical Therapy! I came in with elbow and neck…read morepain and left without any elbow pain and some neck pain (it's a long-term process that I'm still continuing and working on at home). I mainly worked with Lia, but also had an opportunity to work with Kim and Lexi as well. Lia was very knowledgeable, kind, and patient. She took the time to answer any questions I may have had and constantly updated the treatment based on my progress. I worked with Kim twice and she was also very nice and helped further my treatment along. Lexi worked with me on multiple occasions to help with my stretching and overall exercise. She was also very nice and knowledgeable. Overall, I had a great experience at RET Physical Therapy and if I ever need another physical therapist (hopefully not), I wouldn't hesitate to return!

I love MI Physical Therapy. My first experience with them was about a year ago. I had a groin…read moreinjury resolved that had plagued me for about a year. A prior physical therapy series at another office hadn't helped. So, I tried MIPT. While there, I mentioned two chronic but minor issues: pain from a prior shoulder injury (in my 20s) and aching in the same side's elbow. During the appts. for the groin, they addressed the others with a few simple recommendations and I am pain free. I think I had 10 appts. total. 2nd experience: My husband subsequently visited them for severe back and neck pain. He is pain free after about 10 or 12 visits. 3rd experience: I went to see them yesterday for some minor tingling in my arms. I am writing this review now because I am once again thrilled. Relieved and confident that I am on course to resolve this annoying tingling. And, I think the one visit is going to be all it takes. I left with a few changes to make at home and some stretches and exercises.

My most recent experiences, however, show a complete lack of professionalism. My CT scans from a month ago have not been reviewed, and multiple calls to my surgeon have been ignored. Dr. Basamania has enjoyed a stellar reputation but I think his recent performance is subpar. I have been living with pain and a completely useless left shoulder since his revision surgery nine months ago. I understand that my situation might be complex, but to simply not respond to a patient is unconscionable.

Saw another reviewer mention a failed surgery with Keem and that "complications occur," as if this…read moreisn't what so often happens with Keem (I've met people who've known physical therapists who work with numerous butchered Keem patients at a time) - so I'm back to update my review. This is a placeholder until I type out another banger lambasting Keem for being a terrible surgeon. Keem told me my artificial disc migrated - in actuality, a team of Virginia Mason neurosurgeons investigated, and found the disc was installed in the wrong place (which took a while to diagnose, as Keem refused to release intra-operative imaging for close to a year). Entire steps of my surgery were skipped. And he lied to my face about it - and to the Polyclinic ... just before mysteriously leaving his cushy position as their sole spinal surgeon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Keem is a lazy, incompetent butcher. I still experience daily pain and take daily pain medications after what he did to me as a young athlete. He mysteriously vanished from the Polyclinic after multiple government investigations of my surgery, including a winning ruling by the Washington state AG's office because Keem was double-paid by both me and my insurance, and his office said I'd have to sue him directly to be reimbursed. He's corrupt, and a liar. After some time floating around, it appears he's been hired by Swedish. They should be ashamed of themselves - I reached out directly to share the results of my surgery. Clearly, Swedish doesn't care about the longevity of their patients, or keeping them safe, functional, and pain-free. Keep in mind that this man has a long and extensive history of "complicated" surgeries, as well as kickbacks into the millions from the manufacturer of the only artificial disc he installs. (They also cover fusion equipment, etc.) I could find no other surgeon who only uses equipment from one company ... let alone ones paid by them on the side. More corruption to the absolute core. More coming. I have other reviews for him in my profile, including one in which I caught him leaving himself a fake positive review. Don't be fooled by this slimy, unctuous guy who has a long history of leaving his patients immediately post-op to go get paid by Medtronic while they suffer through permanent and life-changing complications. Expect a PA to see you for your first post-op appointment (dangerous and insidious scope creep, going against all advice of the American Medical Association), and expect them to misread your imaging and gaslight you about your pain because they have no idea what they're talking about. This is an established pattern of Keem's. If Keem has 5,000 haters, I'm one of them. If Keem has 1 hater, it's me. If Keem has 0 haters, it's because his rotten surgery finally killed me Lmaoooo. If Shakespeare knew this guy, he'd call him an egg.

I'm going to preface this review by saying all the physical therapists here seem pretty friendly…read moreand knowledgeable and this is in no way an attack on them. I thought I did all the research I needed before coming in here but it does not even matter because the front desk people will straight up lie to you about how much the appointment will cost you out of pocket. I was told I only needed to pay $60 out of pocket up until I meet my deductible which would be roughly about 10 more visits and then my payments would be around $20-$30. I specifically asked and told them I did not want to get surprised with a fat bill. Well guess what just happened 4 months later... I received a $220 bill for my ONE ~30 min appointment of nothing but doing some very basic stretches. The biggest cost came from a pdf file sent to me with more stretches. Mind you, all google-able / youtube-able information. I was billed for sessions longer than my entire appointment time. 75 minutes worth although I was not even there that long? I asked for a breakdown of the costs and did not receive that from them but I did receive it from my insurance company. Like someone else said, the billing practices are absolutely criminal and I'm worried the elderly are getting taken advantage of. Don't trust the front desk people, call your insurance before booking an appointment.

I most certainly do recommend Bellevue Pain Clinic whole-heartedly!…read more When I first came to the Clinic, I was not in the greatest shape physically. The worst pain i was having was in my lower back. I could not sit up for very long before starting to hurt, nor stand for three or four minutes at a time. I was constantly laying down because it was the most comfortable position for me. Along with some other aches and pains, over time, the aches and pains were dissapating. As I was beginning to feel better, my outlook on life and my mood were also changing for the better. I must talk about the staff. Everyone i work with has taken a piece of my heart. I have very warm feelings for each person. This includes the staff at the front desk. Everyone has helped me come a very long way from where I was. Before I began coming to the Clinic, I felt broken. I did not want to go anywhere or even go outside on a warm sunny day. Now, I am wanting to go and do things that I had no interest in doing before. I owe it all to the most wonderful people I have ever met. They tell me that it was all me as I did the work! Yes, this is true, but they all had a hand in my healing. I used to feel like an old 73 year old, but now I feel like a young 73 year old. To everyone I have worked with, I want to give each and every one of you a heart-warming thank you for helping me believe in myself again! THANK YOU!

After going through a very negative experience with a different chiropractic location following a…read morecar accident a few years ago, I was extremely nervous to start care after another car accident I was recently in. I was suffering from neck stiffness and severe headaches starting at the base of my skull, radiating up to my eye, which would make it incredibly hard to go on about my day and do daily tasks. Bellevue Pain Institute made me realize that a chiropractor shouldn't just adjust you quickly for 10 minutes and then you're out of there (which was the case with other chiropractors in the past), but there's MUCH more to a chiropractor who TRULY cares about making people feel better. From day one, the entire staff made me feel as comfortable as possible. Every member of their staff was kind and caring, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about what they were doing and care about their clients. Dr. Polzin created a specific treatment plan for me and frequently checked in to see how I was doing. If you are hesitant about starting treatment due to a previous bad experience, or you were in a car accident and are suffering from any headaches and/or pain, please go see Dr. Polzin. You truly will not regret it. I'll be recommending everyone I know who is dealing with pain to come here. My headaches and pain are now gone. Bellevue Pain Institute gave me my life back. Thank you so much again to Dr. Polzin and your team for helping me.

If people are so inspired to write a review about their doctor/experience on yelp (which doesn't happen a lot, mostly restaurants) it must mean a lot. I'm sooo glad I decided to call Minor and James clinic and made an appt with her. Her clinic is at the FIRST HILL BUILDING on Minor ave and James. Parking is located across the street at the parking garage. Make sure to bring the parking stub with you up so that the receptionist can stamp it. The stamp will ensure you a parking discount. Smooth experience from start to end. No long waits in between. I didn't feel rushed or just another patient. She thoughtfully listened to all my concerns & answered all my questions. She explained everything to me thoroughly and very clearly. She thoroughly examined my walk, leg, etc. and was able to pin point the problem instead of ordering a bunch of x-rays that would cost more money. I left not just very satisfied, but I even asked her to recommend me other doctors since I was so impressed with my experience! (I am currently looking for a family doctor/general physician) Anything sports medicine related, I highly recommend her.
