After a few weeks of increasing discomfort from my right knee, I saw Tom Klein this morning…read morethinking that I possibly was facing possible knee replacement or something equally serious. Tom reviewed my ex-rays and said that he didn't see anything other than the normal wear and tear of someone who was 80. There was some calcium in the meniscus and arthritis here and there. He gave me a shot of cortisone; saying that it would probably do the trick for the next year or two. I have seen Tom a few times in the past and each time I am impressed with what a down-to-earth guy he is. If you are looking for a doctor who knows his stuff and has plenty of bedside- manner; he's you guy. Everyone who works at Ortho Virginia is first-rate too. John K Nusbaum Reston, Va.

I already paid for surgery and follow-up care through…read morethem, yet they still charge extra just to complete disability/work paperwork that is clearly needed because of the surgery they performed. When someone is recovering and unable to work, adding more unexpected fees for basic paperwork feels completely unfair and insensitive. Patients should be informed about these charges upfront, especially when the forms are directly related to the treatment they provided. It feels like they take advantage of patients at a vulnerable time instead of supporting them through recovery. The medical care may be one thing, but the administrative side and lack of compassion left a very negative impression on me

I had a very frustrating experience with the billing and administrative practices at Town Center…read moreOrthopaedics. I visited for an acute hand injury and the office verified my insurance before the appointment, but no one informed me that a PCP referral was required for coverage. After the visit, the claim was denied and I was left with a $520 bill that was eventually sent to collections, forcing me to go through months of appeals with my insurer and even the Virginia Bureau of Insurance. During that process it became clear that the claim was submitted as a specialist office visit and not coded as urgent care, even though the visit was for an acute injury. The state review indicated the provider could submit a corrected claim for reconsideration, but the billing office never corrected or resubmitted it. This entire situation could have been avoided with basic communication or proper billing follow-up. If I had been informed upfront that a referral was required, I would have simply obtained one. Patients should not have to deal with collections and regulatory appeals because of administrative oversights and lack of transparency.

Excellent Treatment by Dr. Brita Allgyer…read more I cannot recommend Dr. Brita Allgyer highly enough. Her expertise, pleasant personality, and deep knowledge made a difficult recovery possible after I injured myself in a fitness class. I found Dr. Brita through recommendations of others at my gym, and she was amazing from our first initial consultation and throughout my treatment. I was in significant pain and worried about my mobility, but Dr. Brita gave me an entire treatment plan and things to work on alone so I could positively affect my recovery. She gave me suggestions on how to strengthen other muscle groups to help prevent future injuries, as well. It is rare that a Doctor would take as much time with patients as she does (a full hour with Dr. Brita on each visit). Dr. Brita gives her patients the extra effort to ensure their future health, not just fix what is broken. Beyond her exceptional professional skills, Dr. Brita is an absolute delight to be around. Her friendly, positive, and genuinely warm demeanor made every single session enjoyable. I honestly looked forward to my appointments and often found that the hour was over too quickly because she was such a pleasure to talk to. If you're looking for a physical therapist who combines top-tier skill with a truly wonderful personality, look no further than Dr. Brita Allgyer. She's simply the best! My rating is 10 out of 10 for amazing service, knowledge, and super kind demeanor.

I hurt myself during the birth of my first child 19 years ago by tearing muscles in my back and glutes that destabilized my lower spine. I was in excruciating pain. The only therapist who could ever relieve my pain was Melanie. I have been her patient for several other injuries because she's the only one I trust. I love that she's hands on! Currently, I have pain in the left side and back of my left leg, which makes it difficult for me to walk. I'm able to use other therapists with zero charge for my insurance, but I choose Melanie because I'd rather pay some money out-of-pocket than to waste my time with other therapists who are unfortunately not as capable and knowable as Melanie. When I wasn't able to consult Melanie, I visited four therapists, an OMM doctor, and a great chiropractor, but Melanie is the only one who could fix my pain. I cannot say enough about how amazing, professional, knowledgeable, and kind Melanie is. You are in very good and capable hands with her.

I am extremely anxious when it comes to surgery, but Dr. Switaj's expertise, professionalism, and kind nature really instilled the confidence that I needed. I really appreciate the time he took to explain everything. I have since had the surgery performed by Dr. S, which was recommended by both him and a previous orthopedist that I had seen (I saw Dr. S as a second opinion because I did not feel comfortable proceeding with surgery at the initial practice). Dr. Switaj is the most skilled surgeon I have ever encountered (I have had multiple, unrelated surgeries with other providers prior to this procedure).

Just listening and feeling heard is what I needed and I bet many patients do, as I am in the field myself, not to your degree but still somewhat and I know that patient care starts with a thorough H and P every single visit.

His diagnosis was wrong, so he had to rule out his own diagnosis during a follow up visit six weeks later by sending me to get an MRI of my foot, recommending seeing a neurologist, and getting blood work for a series of illnesses. I had the MRI done and when I visited his office for a follow up visit several several month later, he told me that I needed to go back to Fairfax radiology to get an MRI of my toes since he had not specified toes. I went back to Fairfax radiology and my insurance charged me an exorbitant amount of money simply because the Dr. had forgotten to note toes in his order to the radiologist. I spoke with the radiologist at Fairfax radiology and she said that it should've been a specified in the first place. If I were you, I would avoid going to this doctor. This has cost me a lot of money and time had he been more precise and knowledgeable.
