We appreciate how honest the therapist was about how she didn't see any underlying concerns with her in this area and was not pushy about continuing therapy sessions. But we did discuss perhaps occupational therapy to help her with feeding for future development. So we booked a few feeding OT sessions with Nadia and my daughter was in love with her from day 1. She was kind, patient and instantly connected with our daughter in trying to pin point the best way to encourage her to open up on how she interacts with food. Would highly recommend.

My son has been attending speech therapy sessions at Fairfax Pediatric Therapy since early January…read more He is almost 9 and has always struggled with his "s," "sh," and "ch" sounds - but we waited to see if he would grow out of it (he didn't). On recommendation of our dentist, we tried some videos to help him with speech, but we were not successful on our own. After a Zoom call with Ariel and Ahmad, the speech therapist, we felt very confident and comfortable with Fairfax Pediatric Therapy. After the first session, my son made huge strides in his "sh" sounds - he was actually able to articulate it correctly, even if it was a struggle. Long story short, as of today (3 months after starting) Finn has met all of his speech goals and no longer needs the services. Both Ahmad and Finn worked hard to make this happen - and in such a short time. I didn't expect progress so fast, to be honest. Not only that - my kiddo actually looked forward to the sessions. Ahmad took the time to get to know his interests - chess and strategy games - and built the sessions around play. When we left today, for the last time, Finn said he was going to miss his friend. We have had the best experience! Thank you.

My visit was driven by the fact that I had fallen and fractured my big toe. Pros: - Scheduling was a breeze; the representative was knowledgeable and efficient. - The front desk staff was pleasant and made the check-in process smooth. - The medical assistant was professional, efficient, and welcoming. - Dr. Messerly was the highlight of the visit. He was genuinely interested in listening to my concerns and never made me feel dismissed, even though I am not a medical professional. He remained patient and receptive, even when I went a bit off-topic. I had specific concerns regarding potential arthritis related to occasional gout, and he took the time to fully address them. Most importantly, he never made me feel rushed; in an era where medicine often feels like "big business," his dedication to a thorough, unhurried visit was incredibly refreshing. Cons: - The intake process for documenting medications was frustrating. The digital form was not user-friendly, and due to the difficulty of navigating the required app on my phone and the tablet at the office, my medications were not documented correctly.

The medical assistant (I think it was Connor) was super nice and took me back to the examining room to go over the issues I was having. After that I had x-rays and the technician was super nice/efficient. Dr. Seal came in shortly after and we agreed I'd work on core strengthening through physical therapy and if the sciatica/piriformis didn't improve after a month I'd have an MRI. Unfortunately I was unable to get in for physical therapy at the Fairfax office, but Dr. Seal told me I could go anywhere for the physical therapy (didn't have to be with Town Center Ortho). I started core exercises on my own and then found a studio for pilates utilizing a reformer, which I've started over the past couple of weeks and that's been going very well. My experience with Town Center Ortho was very positive, staff was nice and efficient and I did not wait more than 5-10 minutes, after finishing my paperwork, before I was called back. The only negative I'd note and it's very subjective - based on me running on the warmer side - I was in a back corner room that was getting a lot of sunlight that day and it was really warm... I was tempted to open a window lol.

I've been going to Alliance Physical Therapy (Fairfax) for several months and I can't say enough…read moregood things about my experiences and treatment here. I've never been in physical therapy a day before in my life, so I was nervous and not sure what to expect. I was sent to PT by an orthopedic doctor after I sought help for chronic lower back pain. I've dealt with it for 5-6 years but a 100% telework schedule due to COVID kicked it into high gear. It was debilitating and got to the point where I would just lay down and cry because of how much it hurt. They've done a great job of making patients feel safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. Everyone wears masks and hand sanitizer is widely available throughout the office. The front desk has an acrylic partition and they're great about using hand sanitizer when they collect your payment. All the staff are constantly cleaning equipment. Now, onto the physical therapists themselves. I first met with Dr. Hiral Naik. She did my initial assessment and then gave me some at-home exercises to keep up on. She then gave me a deep-tissue massage which HURT but I felt great afterwards. I had no idea I had so much tension. I started working with Dr. Josh Summers after that. He's a fantastic instructor and got me working on a regular round of exercises at the office. I'm now more aware of my body and know how to work out safely. Form is everything! Dr. Rachel Odom is now my regular PT and let me tell you - she changed my life. During our first session together, she identified issues with my hip/pelvis alignment and corrected it. This whole time, I thought I had issues with my spine!! The relief was immediate and I spent the rest of my week gliding around, amazed that I was no longer in debilitating pain. I see Rachel regularly now, once per week, and she's great about regulating my pain, guiding me through new exercises to strengthen my muscles, and follow-through on what I'm doing at home. Posture, stretching, minding your alignment, and strengthening. Everyone has always been friendly, professional, and they genuinely care about your pain management and health. For years, my friends and coworkers were saying that I was exaggerating my pain or that I was "too young" to have back pain. Josh and Rachel immediately knew something was wrong. It was incredibly validating to know that I wasn't crazy and that yes, my pain really was that bad. They have done everything in their power (and continue to!) to treat me. I have a long way to go before I think I can graduate from PT but my qualify of life is so much better. My pain is now at a manageable level and I'm more aware of my body than I was before. Scheduling my appointments are easy - the front desk staff has always been friendly (Chris and Tammy). I have a weekly standing appointment and regularly receive text message reminders. I pay up-front, sign, and schedule my appointment for the following week then and there. The location is super easy to get to and parking is plentiful. Be aware of tight corners around the parking garage, it can get a little crowded during peak hours. Overall, can't recommend this place enough!

They seriously need to reevaluate their intake process and ESPECIALLY who they have representing them on the phone. It is hard enough dealing with a new autism diagnosis and finding ABA services. Don't make it harder on parents with attitude and an unnecessarily complicated process. So glad we found a different provider who was actually helpful and compassionate.

After five weeks there, she came home stronger and confident, but there were some issues here and there that made the experience somewhat traumatic. The new administration arrived when we did, and when we returned four months later with mom's Congestive Heart Failure, it was like a a Tsunami touched on every area of deficit we had seen prior. The Administrators held themselves accountable for the concerns that we had, and in the eight days we were there in August, I can highly recommend this location. Nothing is perfect in the area of need for elderly or those recovering, but the site was very clean, the nurses were top notch and positively invested above and beyond in their patients. The therapists and the gym maintain their five star review throughout both experiences (especially the manager and PT "Jim Morales" , but a special thanks to our nurse "Taylor", who felt like part of our family when our visit over.
