I came to HDPT about 2 months after a major open abdominal surgery. I had lots of pain while lifting- especially my almost 1 year old daughter. Basic tasks were causing me lots of pains. Right when I first arrived at HDPT, I was impressed with how clean the facility was kept. Everything looks new. During my initial appointment Michelle listened to all my concerns and took the time to understand. Within a few visits I started to see many improvements! I was so impressed. Michelle modified exercises as needed and made sure I was doing everything correctly. I'm so happy with the progress I've made. I went from not being able to lift my daughter - to being able to carry her around all day without pain (and she has grown!!) I highly recommend Michelle & HDPT! They will change your life! read more

Glenn D'addario of HDPT has treated my neck condition after an auto accident several years ago and enabled me to continue my physical activity and lessen periods of pain. HDPT is always available with same day appointments to help me. Glenn is kind, professional and caring. Now a senior, Glenn has continued to help me manage my pain episodes and enabled me to stay active which is so important as we age. I've gone to several physical therapists and hands down Glenn D'addario at HDPT is the BEST! read more

pretty freaking epic care (and i don't care unless you are also a one star!) but you, your staff and the work you do is incredibly kind to the community at large. I am happy to refer friends wholeheartedly. the concierge made sure they took my asinine... excuse me *cough* I MEAN average insurance and for that he deserves a gold medal. sorry i don't own any to give y'all. read more

Glenn and Ed are top notch. I have had PT elsewhere and it was okay, what I expected. Ed and Glenn though are not your typical healers. They show they care, they talk to you (if you're interested in chatting of course), they make the work of rehabilitation more enjoyable with great senses of humor. They are also very accommodating in regard to your personal schedule. It all starts with the winning smile at the door, talking about you Abby! Keep up the good work HDPT! read more

Ok, so I hurt my shoulder months ago while in the gym and did the usual; get a cortisone shot. Except that it did not work. A friend told me about HD and I cannot rave enough about the service and careful treatment you receive here. As others have written if you follow the plan, come for the treatment you will have good results. My pain has greatly diminished and I am almost back to the same level of activity. Special shout out to Michelle who is both amazing and the strongest hands in Middlesex County. She's fantastic. read more

This place is AMAZING!! I broke my leg (tibia and fibula). I had 2 plates and 15 screws put into my leg to put it back together. I was on bed rest for 2 months+. Finally, I got the "all clear" from the surgeon to begin PT, so I called HD PT on a recommendation from my neighbor (Thank you neighbor!) From my very first visit I felt at ease. Ed & Glen have created a beautiful environment for people to get top level care and also feel like they are part of the family. The chatting and laughing back and forth between the therapists and patients is really refreshing! And did I mention that they ACTUALLY make you feel like they are invested in getting you better too?!?Their hands-on approach makes you feel like they're in this journey with you. From the massages of the affected areas to really watching and correcting little moves, you know that you are in the hands of professionals. This injury had really impacted my life and my ability to do some of the most basic things. I have been told by doctors that I am progressing at a faster rate than they had anticipated! I have no doubt that it has everything to do with HD Physical Therapy and the lovely environment that they have created! Thank you guys! read more

Came in with back pain due to spasms in my lower back. Dr. Glenn performed some dry needling and fixed it up nicely! The entire experience was awesome. On time for appointment! Efficient and correct diagnosis! Effective treatment! Friendly staff! read more

I was able to go the distance to run and complete my first half-marathon thanks to Glenn at HDPT! Let me start from the beginning.... I first started training for the Chilly Half-marathon last August of 2012. I didn't train right and started getting severe pain in my right knee a week or two into training. I just proceeded to take ibuprofen and run through the pain for a few more weeks until the pain became so unbearable I could barely walk. That's when I first came to HDPT. After a free consultation one of the Physical Therapists, Glenn, told me I had Patellar tendinitis. We were optimistic about me being able to continue training for the half-marathon but I had done some good damage by waiting too long to get checked out and start physical therapy. Over the next few months I came in for weekly PT and we reconditioned my knees and strengthened my leg muscles. However, I wasn't able to run the Chilly half marathon that November. Fast forward to the Spring. I started training for the Triple Threat half-marathon which took place a few weeks ago in Rockport. I began a 16 week training program in April. Towards the end of May I developed some pain around my right buttock area and thought it was my piriformis muscle (self-diagnosis from Internet sites based on symptoms is the worst idea possible). After a week or two of stretching and rest I tried running again and couldn't run for more than a minute without being in pain. I decided I wasn't going to make the same mistake twice. I decided to go see Glenn quickly this time. No lie, he was able to fix me in one visit and make the pain completely go away! He did some pulling, cracking, and stretching of my legs and said I should be good to go in a day. I remember thinking...no way. Well, I kid you not, I was completely pain free the next day!!! I was back to training and only fell about 2 weeks behind in my training schedule. I just completed my first half marathon, the Triple Threat, in Rockport two weeks ago. I have to say that there's no way I could've done it without the help of Glenn and HDPT to get me back on track so quickly in my training plan. These guys are the real deal and I would recommend them to anyone! read more

After hip surgery I am extremely grateful for all the help I so far have received at HD Physical Therapy! Sonrisa , with her professional and thorough knowledge of the human anatomy has helped to a great extent to alleviate my acute pain, so that I am finally able to move and walk again almost effortless! And Sonia, as well as Joyce , with their professional and very friendly attitude have been of great help in navigating my experience at H&D . Thank you all very much indeed!

Unfortunately I have been to many physical therapy clinics in my life ; ( HD physical therapy is easily the best! Glenn and Ed are extremely knowledgeable and the whole staff is great. Awesome atmosphere. I actually look forward to going (crazy right). Thanks for helping me get me ROM back! read more

I would highly recommend HDPT to anybody needing targeted exercises to fix chronic back pain. I have been a patient for two months and the slow and steady progress has been life changing. The regimen is challenging and as a patient you have to do the work but I was able to make a lot of progress with no major set backs. The atmosphere is lighthearted and although I have had primarily one technician I have experienced three and all knew what they were doing. I am sorry I did not do physical therapy earlier. read more

I could not have been any happier with my experience at HDPT. I had an unpleasant experience at another physical therapy practice, and the staff here renewed my faith that a physical therapy practice could do it right. From easy scheduling - they offer same day first assessments - to a great location ( it is right off of Route 95/128), you cannot go wrong. Parking is not an issue, and the interior environment is warm and welcoming. I came to them for a patellar tendon/knee issue that prevented me from running. I met with Glenn, one of the owners of HDPT. During my assessment, he listened carefully, offered insight as to what may be happening, then told me ideas he had for the plan of attack. Another reviewer on here mentioned that they actually looked forward to going for treatment, and I can echo that. The staff is exceedingly outgoing and kind, and what was very impressive was that everyone knew your name as well as (and more importantly) what issue you were dealing with and always asked "How's your knee?" As for the treatment itself, it was very broad - the physical therapists (Glenn, Ed, Svet, Robbie, and the nice woman I never worked with) are all very knowledgeable and up to date on all techniques, coming up with new and helpful challenges every session. The assistants also are very knowledgeable and know their stuff - they are a key component in your therapy and make you feel comfortable and confident in their care. These guys are the best - you won't be disappointed! read more

The service here is outstanding!! I have been to Glen, Ed, Svet and Robbie and they are all amazing. I go at 7am and I am NOT a morning person. But I bounce out of bed to go to my PT session. I love my experience so much that I sent my grandma here. She is doing so well! Clean, bright and friendly. This is your go to PT place. Ample parking and flexible hours. read more

I went to HD Physical Therapy when i started to have pain on my upper leg which turned out to be a herniated disc. Everyone at the physical therapy was kind and very helpful. I looked forward to going to my appointments 2x a week, the programs they sent me home with are very helpful and doable. read more

As a breast cancer survivor, I need to keep moving! Neck and back issues would always return every few weeks and prevent me from consistently maintaining my 150 minutes weekly walking regime along with strength training necessary to maintain my recovery. I've been seeing Glenn D'Addarrio, DPT, at his Wakefield and Burlington offices for several months now and am amazed how much he has helped me with these long standing problems. I'm definitely stronger, more flexible and finally able to work toward better health. He is kind, professional and very skilled at identifying the root cause of the problem and finding solutions, exercises, stretches to resolve them. Along with his co-founder, Ed Harding, Glenn has fostered a caring and encouraging environment where health, strength and movement are important for everyone at all ages. Helen S. Middleton, MA read more

WOW! I have been to my share of PT providers for a variety of issues, so I have a wide base for comparison. These guys set the bar for what PT should be. After just a few visits I have seen incredible progress in my condition. You get full on attention when you have an appointment, as your therapists stays with you your entire session. Other places I have been to the therapists are seeing several patients at a time. My sessions have also been comprehensive in my treatment approach, which is likely the reason for my quick progression. And you will never have more fun doing PT. The entire staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly to add to their expertise and professionalism. Run, don't walk to HDPT! (And if your injury prevents you from running/walking, the therapists at HDPT will get you there!) read more

Growing practice, great space & location. Easy to get convenient appts, they have at least 4 PTs & 5 trainees on staff, so there's no waiting. Good therapy- they know they're stuff, & the office manager understand how to maximize treatments based on your insurance rules. This is 2nd injury they are helping me with. & I'm very satisfied. read more

This was my second time being a patient at HD PT and just like my first visit things went great! Awesome, knowledgeable, friendly staff that do their job well! If you are in need of physical therapy I would highly recommend this facility. read more

As a person with MS I have experienced a great deal of medical professionals and can say that the skill and expertise at HDPT are unparralled.They are the best in the business! I truly believe that they have kept me from a wheelchair and highly recommend. Not all PT is created equal -they will get you results. read more

The PTs and staff at HDPT are top notch. I have been treated here as well as two of my children for sports related injuries. They are knowledgeable, thorough, and accommodating. The environment has always been pleasant and upbeat. read more

I cannot say enough positive things about my wonderful experience at HD Physical Therapy! I am pretty physically active, and had injured my neck during a workout at the gym. After living with the pain for about a year, and having tried to work on healing and stretching the injury on my own, I had started to get nervous that the pain would never go away. I looked up all of the physical therapy offices in my area, and just picked one based on convenience for my commute. Looking back on the three months of therapy I had at HDPT, I could not have made a better choice. The atmosphere there is great, as each staff member's personality helps to contribute to a therapy environment that feels 100% professional, encouraging, and progressive each week, while not feeling like it is overly clinical. As many other reviewers have stated here, I looked forward to going to treatment each week, because I knew that each staff member who would work with me that day had fully assessed my injury complaints and physical progress up to that weekly visit, and would develop a therapy session per visit that would force my body to adapt as was needed in order to help work out and relieve the pain of my injury. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and motivated, and I felt like the personalized attention that I received during each session helped me to walk away feeling like I had both a better understanding of what had caused my injury, as well as a better understanding of how the therapy was treating it. They've improved body mechanics issues that I was never aware I had problems with, and my neck feels great. Glenn, Ed, Robbie, Christine, Svet, Sean, Becca, Michelle, Ryan and Aby made me feel comfortable and welcome from the first day I walked in until my very last session, and I can say without a doubt that I'm walking away from HDPT with a more profound respect for how physical therapy can benefit someone active like me, when an injury seems like it will never go away. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys! read more

I love these guys. I walked in after my third surgery for my broken ankle with a "substantial limp" and gave them a list of sports and activities that I took part in before my accident. Weeks later I'm getting comments about how much better my limp is looking and we're talking really hopefully about how quickly I can get back to athletics. I couldn't be happier with my PT. They're a great group, super friendly and fun while being 100% professional and giving me a huge variety of exercises to help specifically with my injury. I can't recommend this office enough, and if you're one of those people who say that "physical therapy is useless," you're going to the wrong one. Try HDPT. read more

If you live, work, or play ANYWHERE near Wakefield, and are in need of physical therapy, you would be CRAZY to go ANYWHERE else!! This is a place i can not say enough about. The atmosphere is very upbeat and friendly ALWAYS. The staff are all extremely helpful and knowledgeable, each therapist brings something unique and helpful to the table. I have had several different pt's work on me for my neck from an accident, and i have been very satisfied every time. Being in pain is the worst, and it can make you grumpy, depressed, just overall unhappy! The staff at HDPT goes above and beyond to make individuals feel better not just on the outside, but on the inside as well. Its hard to leave there without a smile on, the attitudes are very upbeat and there is a cohesiveness that makes you feel you are truly in the hands of people who CARE. You wont hear a negative comment about this place, everyone is great and they are there to get you UP AND BACK TO YOUR BEST SELF AGAIN! read more

I was resistant to go to physical therapy for my plantar fasciitis because of a bad experience with another PT practice. I am so glad I decided to go to HD Physical Therapy! It is a great practice. Everyone who works there is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and upbeat. They have great up to date equipment and techniques. Glenn D and Robert B have really helped my plantar fasciitis. I highly recommend this practice for all of your physical therapy needs. read more
