I am not in a position to attest to Mary's care because I simply never managed to get any. Their…read moretherapists might be wonderful but the office itself is very poorly managed. I scheduled a first appointment online and received an email confirmation only to be told, upon my arrival, that my name was not on the schedule. In other words, their online reservation system is useless. Moreover, the receptionist proceeded to inform me that she has no idea why I'm there in the first place because "Mary doesn't work in the mornings". (needless to say, I had rearranged things and scheduled my entire day around this appointment) She was not rude but acted as someone representing an office which has zero interest in taking on me as a patient. I have no reason to doubt that their select clientele receives fantastic care; unfortunately a member of hoi polloi like myself shall have to take my problems elsewhere.

I came to Phoenix Rehab after doing years of physical therapy elsewhere. I am a particularly…read morecomplex case due to a genetic disease I have. I am especially weak and deconditioned. Previous PT providers have not taken into consideration how weak I am and push me beyond my capacity to perform. I decided to call in advance and ask the manager if he felt he could work with me given the problems I have had. He called me back the same day after the clinic was closed and spent at least 20 minutes listening and talking to me. He assured me he could adapt their normal work for me. I had my appointments with the Manager of both locations, Chris. He has progressed me very slowly and in three months, I never been hurt. Our appointments address several regions of my body and I am delighted to report that I have improved in my time there. It is not unusual to see him give instructions to one person while checking on another. He's a hands-on manager and it seems the place runs smoothly. He has hired two new physical therapists and he described that he would mentor them as necessary. I'm so glad that I found Phoenix Rehab. Excellent place in every way

The folks at Phoenix Physical Therapy in Tenleytown are the best! Thanks to Katie and the rest of…read morethe staff, I have recovered from total knee replacement surgery over the past three months and am already back playing tennis - just in time for my 80th birthday! In addition to their deep skills as physical therapists, the staff operates as a consistently cheerful, cohesive and supportive team. They create a clean and orderly environment of friendly care, greeting every customer by name when they arrive. Katie always checked in with me right away to ask how I was doing, and orient me to the day's activities. Kudos to everyone, including Chris, Megan, Ruth, Kali (for home visits), and the front desk receptionists who frequently pitch in as needed to get things done. I highly recommend Phoenix at Tenleytown to everyone who is looking for talented practitioners who know how to create a delightful customer experience with PT!

I have been with Nova Care for several years and most locations. I have a torn rotator cuff and…read morehave worked on it for several years with much success. The pt started out good but made me feel uncomfortable when she was asking when would I be going back to the the orthopedic to get more imaging. I didn't know that was her decision. I'm now at another location and the young pt couldn't be nicer.

After trying three different physical therapy practices in the friendship heights/chevy chase…read moreneighborhood, I was ready to give up. Two of the PT practices were medical factories, processing dozens of people at a time with one-size-fits-all exercises, regardless of the underlying problem. The third PT practice seemed better because it was small, but the "doctor" I saw was a charlatan with and a crook. I was ready to give up on physical therapy, but was persuaded, by my orthopedist and friends, to try again. This time I was recommended to Nova Care, a national firm with an office in friendship heights, and what a difference! This company has the highest ethical and medical standards, with an extremely professional and skilled staff. There are generally two therapists on duty at a time, seeing no more than three or four patients, so that the patient receives close attention at all times. Exercises are focused on the problems presented, and easily changed to reflect the patient's level of tolerance and needs. I can't believe how much better this company is than others in the field. Barri Schnall, my current therapist, is amazing, both in her focus on current problems (spinal stenosis, affecting both shoulder and hip) and interest in other problems that turn out to be related.

I came to Hummingbird seeking a responsive approach to my condition. I communicated with Michelle…read morebeforehand about what to expect, and booking was super easy on the website. Michelle approaches things with listening and communication, and the thorough initial consult included a first session. Wow! I had myofascial release therapy (there is a lot of information about this on her website, and she also explains it very well in person). I could feel the 'release' and found the sessions greatly helpful both in the moment and over time. Michelle's approach is quite unique in the DC landscape for recuperation or self-care. Great, progressive practice as others attested! TIP--the online booking shows appointments each week, with flexibility according to your schedule and needs.

Michelle and Joanne are the best of the best. I've been seeing Michelle for over two years and have…read morereferred more than a handful of friends to her and Joanne. Michelle is a brilliant detective and excels at finding the root of problems rather than just treating symptoms. I do a lot of powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, and running, and she's helped me with both acute injuries as well as overall recovery and maintenance. Michelle has guided me through back injuries, a torn ACL (avoided surgery thanks to her!), tendinitis, bursitis, a concussion, and everything in between. Not only is Michelle a top notch physical therapist, but she's also incredibly thoughtful in how she approaches her practice. She has a very holistic approach to what she does and her knowledge of food allergies, supplements, and the effect of stress on the body have also been quite helpful for me. Who knew a physical therapist could help fix what your GI doctor gave up on? I happen to also be a public health grad student and personal trainer, and she is always magnificently patient when I pepper her with questions and bounce research ideas off her in my sessions. Everyone needs a Michelle in their health arsenal.

Miss Joseph Pivot Athletico…read moreCollege park,Md I wanted to express how grateful I am for your dedication and the essential role you played in my recovery. People often say recovery takes 6-8 weeks, but they rarely tell you that true recovery is closer to six months to a year. Those first 2-3 weeks were frightening--I was connected to monitors watching for infection, relying on an ice machine to control swelling, and struggling just to get up at night or even during the day. After two weeks, my home physical therapist told me she could no longer help me and that I needed to transition to a physical therapy facility. When you were assigned as my therapist, I immediately sensed your seriousness, professionalism, and commitment to helping me return to a normal life. You understood that, at my age of 72, my recovery would be more challenging than that of your younger patients. Yet your determination, persistence, and care never wavered. I always felt that you treated my body as if it were your own. From the moment I walk into your facility, you notice everything--my posture, my gait, my stride, and all the small details I need to improve. I carry those corrections with me every time I walk or exercise now. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for guiding me back toward a normal life. I may not be fully recovered at five months, but I am improving every day, and I know I am moving in the right direction because of you. God bless you for the work you do and for the lives you touch. Sincerely, Neal Perry

The therapists at Marra were outstanding, with 1-on-1 sessions, not those revolving door type PT places where they just put a heating pad on you. They do real manual physical therapy and were able to help me tremendously over the years. I have referred friends and family members to them over the years who have also had successful recoveries from their aches/pains. I cannot adequately express how professional, knowledgeable, and lovely people the therapists at this place are. They really care about their patients and always help if there is a crisis. They are truly a one-of-a-kind PT office.

Now with a new condition, I have found Mark. He is outstanding! A very gentle like-able kind of guy, who always thanks ME for coming to HIM. I feel it is the other way around. He is better than the best and always sensitive to patient's needs. As for the facility itself, it is very modest, a bit old fashioned I guess I'd say, but in the very best possible way. The receptionist Rominique, is amazing! such a genuine nice person, who not only seems to enjoy her job, but who ensures that everything runs on time and very smoothly every single visit. The owner Claudette, is another wonderful woman, who brings gorgeous fresh flowers to the office from her garden for everyone to enjoy. It is really a charming little place with a motto of always putting the patient or client first. You will not be disappointed.
