    As Michael's wife, I have watched him deal with this hip pain for most of our 33 years of marriage…read more I've seen how much it affected the way he walked, what he could do, and just his everyday life. More than anything, I wanted him to finally have a real chance to get out of pain. Traveling from California to Maryland for surgery was a big decision. Michael has been an attorney in San Diego for decades and knows many of the top surgeons here, so going across the country was not something we took lightly. The doctors we saw here were talking about a much bigger open surgery. My husband, being my husband, had an enormous list of questions. A lot of the answers were already available in the information Dr. Christoforetti had put together, and his physician's assistant, Brian, answered many of the others. When we met with Dr. Christoforetti, he carefully went through everything with us and never made us feel rushed, even with Michael's never-ending list. One of the things that made me feel much better was understanding that doing the surgery through small openings did not mean he could see less. With the camera, he could actually get a very detailed view of what was going on and repair what he found without putting Michael through the much larger open surgery that had been discussed. Over the years, Michael tried just about every type of treatment available -- injections, physical therapy, and other non-surgical treatments -- without lasting relief. It meant so much to me that Dr. Christoforetti was finally trying to fix the actual problem instead of just treating the pain again. As a wife, there is a different kind of trust involved. Michael had to trust the surgeon operating on him. I had to trust the person I was handing my husband over to. Dr. Christoforetti made that easy. I felt that he truly cared about Michael and treated him the way you would want someone to treat a member of your own family. His whole team was wonderful to us. Being so far from home made both of us nervous, and having a direct number to Brian, his physician's assistant, gave us a lot of comfort. Dr. Christoforetti, if you ever make it to California, there will always be a place for you at our table. You took such wonderful care of my husband, and I would love the chance to return the kindness by making you the best home-cooked Persian meal of your life.

    I like how easy it was to make appointments and how accommodating and friendly the office staff has…read morebeen. For the past two visits, both appointments have been nearly all on-time, which I appreciate. The facility also has an in-house X-ray technician and machine, which cuts down on time. I can't emphasize on how much I really appreciate the aspect of how efficient the entire team there works. As strange as it may sound, I couldn't help but to feel like I am guilty of wasting everyone's time there, and I felt rushed and flushed out of there quickly. Yes, I love physicians who are on time and the office so efficient that I waltz out of there happy and ready to get on with the rest of my day. Maybe it's just me who felt bad about the reasons and cause of issues I have presented and I felt like there's really nothing anyone can do about it. Maybe I should just call it disappointment. I'm not sure. Whatever the case is, I will just go back to my regular orthopedic office I've come accustomed to.

    Restore Motion is magical. I have seen multiple physical therapists at multiple other clinics for…read moreabout 3 years for a nagging shoulder issue without resolution. I met with Patrick, who talked with me for half an hour really inquiring in depth about my pain and limited range. He then worked with me and made some adjustments, and I walked away feeling some relief for the first time in years after my very first session. After seeing him once a week for 6 weeks, I am pain free and have almost 100% range of motion restored. I feel as if the other clinics I visited were treating a cough when I had pneumonia. Patrick got to the crux of the problem and treated me accordingly. I cannot rave enough about this place.

    I really love this place. I have been to a few PT in the area - they meet you once then pass you…read moreon to an assistant. You have to go twice a week for a few weeks before you feel better. But at Restore Motion, you work with the therapist for the entire hour. I have seen Reshma for pelvic therapy after I had a baby, then Kerry for hip pain. I only had to see them each two times before I felt better. It's amazing - I let myself live with pain for months and then they fixed me in 1-2 weeks. Now my young daughter goes to Kerry for a medical issue. She is wonderful with her - she shares things with Kerry issues that she won't share with me. They have fun together and she trusts her. I'm not sure why anyone would go anywhere that isn't Restore Motion.
