    I have been doing my post hip replacement physical therapy at Coastal Ortho in Brunswick. The…read moreoffice staff is quick and efficient to check me in and collect my co-pay . I have been working with Amin to build back my strength and balance. He pushes me in a great way to make sure I have the best recovery possible. I feel comfortable and confident that I am in professional and knowledgeable hands.

    I have only gone here for osteopathic work on my leg and neck, so I can only speak for that piece…read moreof this large facility. My initial visit included a very thorough stack of paperwork that covered my current injury, past injuries, and personal info for records. After that I was fairly quickly whisked into the back where they said they would be X raying my neck...what? Not sure if there was a mix up on my behalf or theirs but I assured the tech that we did not need to do this. He didn't argue and pleasantly brought me to my room for intake and to wait for my doctor. Dr. Abbott came in and chatted with me about my symptoms. He was very detailed and never seemed rushed to get to his next appointment. In the next couple of visits he has done the same and has given me several techniques to help alleviate pain along with his work that he has done on my neck and surrounding muscles. Sometimes runs late (don't all doctors) but overall an amazing experience and will continue to go to have work done on my neck.

    Orthopedic services being in my future because of arthritis, I just stopped in, mid dayish on a…read moresunny late summer day as I recall, to check the place out being in the Fielders' Choice neighborhood - actually put a provider name with a face, observe staff & the degree of office/practice busyness/activity, pick up some brochures to review on my own time. Few brochures in stock, the place was dead, & only 1 staff at the desk, thus NO excuse for such a sour puss in look or attitude. I noticed that most of the providers represented on the wall with photo were NOT physicians, but Nurse Practitioners or Physician Assistants. I left, tossed the brochures in the trash, made a call to Orthopedic Associates of Maine, Portland. Now, there's a practice with a stellar reputation and the service, staff, caring, and welcome to back it up as I can readily state, having had 2 more recent appointments: Meet/Greet &Consult (10/2025,) followed by Walk-in Orthopedic Clinic - emergency/condition change appointment (12/19/2025) due to excruciating pain, serious mobility issue. I was given a Cortisone injection to settle the knee down, physical therapy planned 1st, to confirm symptoms with an MRI that would be paid for by Insurance - that's the game - it's backwards. I went home from there, very comfortable, and received a call from the office to set up physical therapy. Anyhow, with the new year upon us I will most likely be forced to deal with CMO, not OA of Maine, because OA of Maine will be considered "out of network" by my new Insurance, thus cost me much more out of pocket. I may just need to eat the cost for superior care and service when this is not my preference.

    I've had bad experiences with the old guard of doctors. They are no longer there, like Timoney,…read moreBrown.. male PA's... you all know the ones. The place was so dysfunctional it needed to burn down (figuratively) and start over. What a refreshing experience I had this time without that cloud of darkness, negativity and unprofessionalism that hung over that practice. This time, I had the 5 star treatment from beginning to end. All the Staff was in a good mood. No rushing my hobbled leg. Terrific experience with the PA who did the Symvisc injection properly without discomfort and she did an exam and put my leg through all the motions and did some teaching! Wow. I was so thrilled she did an exam because all the doctors I had before would just look at the imaging, diagnose, glance at me once, send me out the door for PT/OT the usual useless stuff. I'm sure the history (not taken) and physical (not done) was clicked off by the MA and her keyboard-mouse, then the Doctor signed without reading it, and it was off to Insurance for payment for all the things the Almighty Doctor never did. Happens all the time folks and that is FRAUD. We patients who pay dearly for health insurance should STOP, be ALERT and watching these opportunistic doctors who get rich by upcoding in the chart while we are left wanting. I hope things have changed now that the bad actors are gone. One can only hope.

    I had to unfortunately stop going to the PT I was referred for because of all of the unexpected…read morecosts. I knew Spectrum took my insurance, but no point did anyone ever talk finances or expected costs with me before or during my treatment. The actual PT care was fine, but after 3 sessions, I felt like everything I was doing there could have been done at home (no specialized equipment was used yet). When the charges came back at around $300/visit (roughly an hour long each), I could not afford to keep going. I had no idea it was going to cost that much per visit. I would say that if you have really good insurance or a low deductible, go for it because the staff are friendly and seem to really know their stuff. But, If you have a high deductible or no insurance, I'd seek elsewhere, as they were not transparent at all about their charges.

Series of questions asked and answered. There is a young man set up at the front taking care of all these protocols. Then waiting area is nicely spaced. While waiting for my therapist I would watch the same young man from the front door go over and clean and sanitize gym equipment stations. He would flip a sign on each piece to show it had been cleaned. Bryan is my physical therapist. Very friendly. He spent a good deal of time getting to the root of the injury and finding the right ways to strengthen and improve my shoulder. He gave me home exercises to do until I return and advised to not over do it.
