I was rear-ended in a car accident and spent over a year dealing with knee, neck, and back injuries. During that time, I worked with another physical therapy office. The people there were incredibly kind and wonderful, but despite more than a year of treatment, I simply wasn't getting better. Then I found Bechtel Physical Therapy. I am not exaggerating when I say I made more progress in my first three visits at Bechtel than I did in over a year at the previous clinic. Are they more expensive than where I was going before? Yes. Are they worth it? Absolutely. But really, they ended up being less expensive in the long run because I improved so quickly. I only needed a few weeks of treatment to accomplish what an entire year elsewhere couldn't. I personally work with Daniel, and all I can say is: holy hell, that man has magic hands. Because I was improving so much, I started addressing other issues as well. Susan (fabulous) worked with me on pelvic floor physical therapy after surgery - and Bryn (beyond incredible!) helped me recover from symptoms related to a concussion I suffered from AND adjusted my surgery scars. My scars!!! I didn't even know that that was a thing - and the difference before and after was astronomical!!! The breadth of expertise in this office is beyond compare. (also want to give a special shout out to Emelyn, Daniel's right-hand assistant, and Fernanda, the general manager, because I love them). What I appreciate most is that they combine genuine kindness with an exceptionally high level of skill and professionalism. It's one thing to have a caring staff. It's another thing entirely to have a caring staff that is truly outstanding at what they do. In fact, when I mentioned Bechtel to several medical specialists I see, every single one had the same response: "Yep. They're the best." And now I understand why. I cannot recommend Bechtel Physical Therapy highly enough. They changed my recovery, and I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Great PTs and assistants. Front desk works hard to get patients seen and deals well with sometimes ornery clientele. The parking is the worst part but worth the headache to get top notch PT treatment. read more

I was referred to Bechtel by a close friend who highly recommended their services. I landed in Daniel's care and cannot speak highly enough about his professionalism, kindness, knowledge and caring. I've been there for several issues, throughout the past couple of years and I have always felt Daniel and Miss 'Em have my back (and knees and balance issues!) Look no further. The front office staff are also top rate. Amazing through and though. read more

To Dr Daniel So, So wonderful person the quality of care, knowledge and the experience. I'm so grateful for helping me and treatment me, he give me a lot of confidence. Thanks so much! God blessings you. read more

We are using this facility for my mom. Highly skilled nurses and staff. Justin is her physical therapist. He is super nice, knowledgeable and highly educated. His assistant Karoline is so sweet and attentive Highly recommended read more

Bechtel has trained everyone at the office to make sure the experience is Top Notch The front desk staff is welcoming and professional Each patient is taking to the appropriate private room dedicated for the PT session The atmosphere at Bechtel is very calming, physically beneficial and mentally lifting Compared to the 3 other PT facilities i have have been to Bechtel is a 5 star My personal experience has been far exceeded from my expectations Highly recommend Bechtel to anyone and everyone who's interested in getting PT read more

I have been going to Bechtel for therapy from a hip replacement. I have never experienced a more professional and dedicated PT environment before this rehab. It's from the parking attendance to the front desk to obviously the physical therapist and the exercise therapist they work as a team all of them. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend 10 out of 10. read more

I had been in pain for a couple of months when my primary care doctor recommended I see the PT that she sees, Dr. Daniel Echeverry. I still can't believe that after only 8 visits, I am pain free and back to all of my regular activities. Dr. Daniel is warm, caring, and, obviously, a skilled therapist who evaluated my problem and using several techniques and treatments, restored my mobility and overall well being. I will miss seeing him, but I won't miss the pain. read more

It is a pleasure working with Becktel Physical Therapy. The therapist are so knowledgeable and empathic to my issues! Justin listens and understands my pain and is spot on in his treatment! Cindy my therapist is excellent at explaining the exercise and watches with a smile! The front Desk are great as well. This Therapy Center is very professional in every aspect of my treatment. I highly recommend Bechtel next time you are on the hunt for a great Physical Therapy Center! Look no further! read more

I had knee replacement and chose Bechtel for my recovery. They are in a newish location and it's clean, spacious and comfortable. Jeff and Gerry were my team and I cannot express how Lucky I feel to have had them they were kind and professional, pushed me when I needed it and understood when I was feeling down. Everyone in the facility was helpful and so polite I can't recommend it enough. Even the people working in the parking garage were lovely read more

I was referred by my wife who was treated by Justin for frozen shoulder. I have spinal stenosis treatment with Justin. Surgery was recommended, but as an alternative, I was advised to try an epidural and PT. It's working. I'm able to walk a little better. Ever since Justin became the owner, the office has run like a Swiss clock. When I enter the room, I immediately receive a warm blanket. I spend 30 minutes with Justin for deep tissue massage and range of motion then 30 minutes with his assistant Caroline for stretching and a variety of exercises. The appointment staff answers on the first ring. Justin holds a doctorate in PT. He is a master as well as a gentleman. Caroline is also AAA. Beyond all that, the facility is immaculate. Couldn't be better. Ken G. read more

Bechtel Physical Therapy should be at the top of your list if you need any type of pt. Not only is the care excellent, but the staff is kind, knowledgable and consistent. I've been there for work on an injured leg, an elbow and my shoulder and in every single case, Melissa and William did extraordinary work to get me up and completely heeled in very few sessions. They are particularly well-educated and skilled and approach their work with detail and complete attention. I've had PT at other places where the work was not consistent, nor were the practitioners. In Bechtel's case, once you reassigned to a therapist team, they stay with you, allowing for excellent follow up. When you go, ask for Melissa and William and you will get tremendous results. read more

Susan was the most arrogant PT person - her arrogance affected her performance and teachings! A PT person has no right to suggest any kind of change in medication! They should have cameras, and microphones in every room. If that was the case, she would never be working there ! This was my experience and my opinion combined! read more

I LOVE Bechtel. It was recommended to me by 2 friends and my at-home PT I had for my knee replacement. My physical therapist, Melissa, at Bechtel really pays attention to any deep-muscle issues I have that might make my exercises painful. She is really thorough and William pays close attention to ensure I'm doing the exercises correctly. Both Melissa and William are professional, exacting, and caring! read more

I have to admit, after my shoulder replacement, I wasn't eagerly looking forward to PT. I'd heard plenty of stories. I decided to try Bechtel and I couldn't believe my luck! Bechtel is a clean, efficient organization. Parking is easy in the building's garage. The staff at Bechtel is incredibly professional and personable, from the front desk to the therapists and trainers. I've seen many of the therapists working with clients. They establish a great rapport with a variety of clients, young and old. They are careful and thorough with their practice and knowledge. I feel especially lucky in being treated by the team of Melissa and William. I highly recommend them, and Bechtel! read more

Bechtel Physical Therapy provides 5-star care in a calm, nurturing space. After my recent total knee replacement, I sought out a therapy office that came highly recommended by several friends. I was very lucky to be assigned to physical therapist Melissa and her excellent assistant William who carefully coordinate my care as a team. Upon arrival a warm compress is placed in my back. Melissa has worked effectively in reducing scar tissue around my incision point carefully massaging the area. Melissa assigns excellent follow-up knee and leg exercises always adjusting them based on my feedback on how I felt at the last PT visit. William is a delight and very helpful in modeling how the exercises are to be done carefully watching me to ensure they are done appropriately. Exercises are always followed by a very pleasant icing of the knee area bringing additional comfort. I feel very fortunate to have the excellent care of Melissa and William at Bechtel. The entire staff is very welcoming including a very pleasant front office staff who schedule appointments. I strongly recommend Bechtel Physical Therapy. read more

I've been seeing Jeff, PT at Bechtel for about 1-year; when I first came to him, I had injured my neck & shoulder area and was in terrible pain. After the first visit, I was already feeling relief. Jeff is an expert at finding the problem and fixing the issues. I still go periodically for upkeep as my injury is permanent, and always walk away feeling much better. Their new location is beautiful and spacious. Staff is always helpful and friendly. read more

Bryn is absolutely brilliant! Thinks outside the box. She was SO HELPFUL to me. I can't say enough about her. I'm so grateful to have found her. 10 stars********** read more

I am so grateful that I was referred to Bechtel for physical therapy. it is a beautful and clean office that coveys the professional and personal treatment that you and your body deserves. it is clear that the large staff is thoroughly trained and are experts in their field of service. My therapist, Daniel, is not only a joy to work with but highly accomplished. I firmly believe that you can't go wrong with this recommendation!! read more

Their service can be described in one word. Thorough! Very thorough. When I was on workers comp, none of the doctors could figure out my injured back. Justin, my therapist at Bechtel, took his time and cracked the code. Now that I have developed a new issue, I made sure to seek out Justin, and with his care, I'm feeling much better. read more

Melissa N. is the BEST physical therapist I could have hoped for. She is compassionate and highly skilled at her craft. Our sessions were always productive and she got right to the point of treating my pain and discomfort. Bechtel has a wonderful team of support personnel around Melissa who carried out her exercise directions flawlessly at each session. I genuinely looked forward to our treatment sessions twice a week for 8 weeks or so. They helped me greatly. Melissa gave me written instructions on how to continue exercising at home to improve my condition. These have really helped me as well. Thank you Melissa and the Bechtel Team. read more

I am working with Bryn Aitken-Young, who is such an amazing practitioner in healing the body with so many different tools at her disposal. I have had extensive back, leg and foot pain that is greatly improved due to her terrific guidance. Bryn has helped me understand how all of this occurred and what I can do to heal this and to support my body ongoing. I am beyond grateful for her A+ care, as I consider her to be as skilled a healer as I have encountered in my many experiences with healthcare practitioners. I believe anyone would benefit from a consultation/treatment with Bryn. You would be with the best! read more

If your are looking for a fantastic Physical Therapist, look no further..." Bechtel's Got your Back"...Or any other body part that is in need of help; from pain relief, to post opt. surgery, to Sports rehab, to balance issues. Bechtel is literally 'hands on'. At every session a licensed physical therapist works directly with you to restore you to wellness. (In other clinics, you only see a licensed PT at your intake assessment and then are left to your own devices. Or maybe they have you work with a trainee who has little or no experience, and can actually cause more harm.) So, after YEARS of debilitating back pain that had impacted my life and mobility, after seeing a number of orthopedic doctors, after getting a number of epidurals, after seeing other PTs, without getting any relief, I was lucky enough to find Bechtel. At my first appointment, my therapist said, "I can help you." And he did! In a matter of weeks my pain was alleviated and my mobility returned. Today, thanks to Bechtel, I am back in action...and not in traction. -Gary read more

I recently took P/T with Bryn for 3 months, which I needed to do before my surgery. The interior was a warm and happy place. P/T's and entire work force were helpful and very nice. With Bryn and her assistant I did learn a ton about my neck back and shoulders. My surgery was a success and I am still doing the exercise's she had me do during that time. read more

I think Bechtel physical Therapy is amazing ! They helped me so much! I am feeling so much better ! I can highly recommend them. I recommend physical therapist Daniel and his assistant Emelyn but everyone here is so lovely ! read more

I was recommended this business. I have been going to get therapy for an injured foot. The therapist are the best. Very knowledgeable and pleasant ,however there is a woman there that is rude ,disrespectful And aggressive. Very aggressive. I had to put up with her lack of respect and rudeness on three separate occasions my blood pressure rose dangerously high and had to be help by Jason's assistant. I had chest pains for three days. I decided not to go back. She has some serious issues and can get very ugly if she does the same to someone like her. I was surprised no one intervine while she was yelling at me. I'm a 78yr old person and she is much younger than I. . read more

I completely agree with the two recent reviews posted about Melissa. I appreciated how warm, friendly, and personable she is, and in addition, I was particularly impressed with Melissa's expertise about the body's physiology, and the way she thoroughly explained what was causing issues I was having post-surgery. read more

I have been suffering terrible lower back pain for months. It made life hard with work and playing with my children. After seeing doctors, that couldn't shed any light on the situation, I found my way to Bechtel. My physical therapist was Daniel. He was so thorough and passionate about his craft. He dissected the root causes immediately and brought so much relief almost instantaneously. He went above and beyond to not only help me, but also educate me. It's been so stressful and for the 1st time I felt hope. I couldn't be more grateful to him and would recommend him to anyone and everyone. The facilities were clean and beautiful. The staff and owner were kind and helpful. Amazing experience at Betchel !!! Highly recommend. read more

After suffering a fairly significant herniation to my lumbar spine, my doctor referred me to Bechtel Physical Therapy. Bechtel's scheduling department promptly set me up with Dr. Daniel Echeverry. As a former paramedic I am well aware that the quality of care at many physical therapy offices can vary drastically. I am happy to report that Bechtel Physical Therapy, especially Dr. Echeverry, is absolutely the most professional, caring, and outstanding collection of PTs and staff members that I have been a patient of (this includes 30 years of broken bones and soft tissue injuries). However, it is Dr. Echeverry's outstanding care that prompts this review. From his initial assessment, overall plan of attack, and continued reassessment and care, you can quickly ascertain his passion for physical therapy and motivation to aid his patients in an efficient and full recovery. Whether it was his text messages checking in, articulate explanations, or palpable positive energy, Daniel's mastery of the art, and science, of physical therapy, was evident every single session. He gave me his full attention and dedication to care every time. My MD, myself, and my family could not be more impressed with my recovery. So far that, me and my family thank you, Daniel. read more

I had an incredible ex at Bechtel. I had knee surgery and chose Bechtel to start my rehab. They were wonderful there and Daniel was incredible. I look forward to returning as soon as I'm eligible. Do not hesitate. They are the best. My home health aid recommended them and she was not wrong read more

I can't say enough great things about Doctor Daniel and Bechtel Physical Therapy. My parents came here a month ago and after seeing Doctor Daniel a few times they immediately noticed the difference. From the first session, it was clear that he is at the top of his game and truly an expert. Within a few sessions they were back to walking and exercising and pain free. If you're looking for a PT in the Sherman Oaks area, The Bechtel Physical Therapy is your spot! Thank you Doctor Daniel! read more

Dr. Bryn Aiken-Young at Bechtel Physical Therapy is truly amazing! I saw her for significant pain in my lower back caused by bulging discs that had plagued me for a few years. After seeing her for a little over a year - before and after back surgery - my back has healed and I have hardly any pain. I have more mobility and can do much more than I expected. Bryn is a thorough diagnostician. She listens well, so her treatments were really effective for what I was experiencing. Bryn was a joy to work with--she is skilled, smart, compassionate, and has extensive knowledge about the body and how to treat it. She not only treated me, she educated me! She communicates clearly, and gave me exercises to do at home, which really accelerated my healing. I felt that she really cared about my well-being and recovery. Her assistant, Mathew was also very helpful, kind and efficient. The studio is spacious, comfortable, and clean--with private treatment rooms and lots of gym equipment. The front desk and billing staff are very friendly and responsive to questions and concerns. They make reminder calls the day before every appointment. It's hard to put into words how appreciative I am to have worked with Bryn and to have received such extraordinary service. One indication is that I happily drove from West Los Angeles to Sherman Oaks to see her! I have referred a family member and a friend to Bryn, and both of them feel as positive about her as I do. Anyone who works with Bryn is very lucky! read more

I have just completed a number of physical therapy sessions at Bechtel and I cannot praise the care, efficiency and effective recovery I have received. I had torn my shoulder in 3 places and could hardly move my arm when I started treatment. At the end of 18 sessions, I am without pain, am back to Yoga and my life is back ! The privacy and one-on-one focus is something that is rare in other places, I understand. Not Bechtel. Highest standards. My therapist was Bryn, whom I can't compliment enough. My Doctor, on my follow up, was amazed at the progress I had made. I don't need surgery! Thank you, Bryn and staff at Bechtel. Laura J. read more

I very highly recommend Bechtel Physical Therapy! Following several years of discomfort and pain and after a total hip replacement, I was hoping to recover a degree of flexibility and strength. Dr. Daniel Echeverry, my physical therapist, and his assistant Em went above and beyond my expectations! Daniel always listens and observes closely, is patient, knowledgeable, compassionate. and very positive and encouraging. Under Daniel's professional care I'm almost completely 100% back to normal. It was always a pleasure going to Bechtel--I looked forward to my appointments. And I left feeling empowered about moving forward in my recovery. read more

I had been living with neck and shoulder pain for the last year and half since before the pandemic began. This past Spring I began physical therapy withBryn Aitken -Young, DPT at Bechtel Physical Therapy. I have received physical therapy for other issues from other practices in the past. My experience and treatment with Bryn really showed me how a great physical therapist works with their client towards a good outcome. From the beginning when I called to schedule an appointment, it was clear that my needs and preferences were important to the office staff. This was also right at the time more people were coming out of lock-down, making doctors appointments, physical therapy appointments. Bechtel had professional safety protocol they followed to keep the clients and themselves safe. Because I have allergies and asthma the office offered to have me come in and do a walk-through before I ever had my first appointment. I felt safe and comfortable. Bryn is friendly, very knowledgeable, professional, focused, calm, and very present and attentive to how I received the treatments and how I did afterwards at home. My progress was dependent on her knowledge of different modalities and her ability to switch gears if necessary. I had a few things complicating my treatment. This did not appear to throw Bryn at all. In fact, I benefitted greatly by her comprehensive knowledge of many facets of health and wellbeing. My previous physical therapy experiences felt like being trained as an athlete to perform at a certain level, the harder you work/push, the better you will be. This was not what I needed in this moment and I immediately found out this was not the guiding principle at Bechtel PT. I was given treatment to assist my body in healing and then added strengthening and lifestyle adjustments so I could learn the way to prevent these issues from reoccurring. Bryn consulted with a colleague, a pain specialist about my case. I've never had any professional as motivated as she is to help get to the root of a problem. Because of her diligence and caring I discovered what was causing my pain and found out there were options available beyond surgical ones if I could not gain ground in relieving my pain. As it was, I did gain ground. My pain is not a constant. I now know how to help myself better with the kind of exercises that are beneficial to me. Wonderful, caring professionals like Caroline usually checked me in for my appointments. Andrew was my physical therapy assistant who guided me in my exercises. Under his watchful and kind eye I knew I could replicate them. Melanie was excellent assisting me with the ins and outs of Medicare coverage for my appointments. I truly felt I had a partner in wanting the best outcome for me. Bryn went miles above and beyond to help me. Not only with her comprehensive knowledge of physical therapy but with her positive approach to treating clients and to life itself. read more

Highly recommend this location for PT! Jason and his team have been amazing! Easy access. Everyone masked. Large facility, so not impossible to make an appointment in a timely fashion. read more

Over the past several years, I have been a patient at Bechtel on three separate occasions for three different conditions, two of which were acute. Justin is my therapist and he's supercalifragilistic. He is warm and easy to talk to, very knowledgeable, and explains everything in easy to understand language. His assistants have always been kind, gentle, and great to work with. I have never felt rushed and feel that we accomplish everything that needs attending to during each session. I have complete confidence in Justin and trust him implicitly. I have never encountered any difficulties with the front desk staff. As a courtesy to the patients, they submit requests to the patients' medical doctors every thirty days to renew the authorization for treatment. The entire office is run very professionally. I highly recommend Bechtel and Justin. read more

I was referred to Bechtel Therapy by my podiatrist, to treat tendonitis in my right heel. It was painful walking or even sitting with my legs elevated. This condition was complicated by a venous insufficiency. I have completed the 18 sessions covered by my insurance and am virtually pain-free. The care and attention I received from Justin and Carter were extraordinary. They truly cared that I recover and were supportive of my efforts to follow the program they outlined. I cannot praise them too highly or thank them enough. My upcoming visit to New York City (a walking town) will now be a joy. read more

The people there are so nice. My therapist and the people at the desk and the people in finance are really lovely. I give this place only three stars because of atmosphere and scheduling. The therapist only works with you for 30 min at most and then send somételes in to do the exercises of treatment. Then the therapist goes to another client so they see someone every 30 minutes. It must be to Gérard more money. I don't think it's fair to the therapist or the clients. If it's for money it's definitely not being spent on the facility. It's a clinical setting with fluorescent lighting and no windows in any of the therapy rooms. The place has windows but it's used for the lobby and offices. This place would be so much more pleasant if they used the office for treatment rooms. read more

I started with Bechtel about two months ago. As I came in I was in severe pain and could barely walk with a hip issue. Daniel was my Physical Therapist and along with Emily I received excellent care and guidance. They were supportive and knowledgable and I quickly recovered to my present state of wellness. Daniel was able to figure out quickly what my issue was and had a plan of attack on how to make me feel better. I appreciate everything they did for me and recommend Daniel, Emily and Bechtel for any of your PT needs! read more
