He and his staff are extremely motivated, professional and passionate in everything they do from receiving me, billing and more importantly targeted physical therapy and exercises focusing on my problem areas. Dr. Kwak provides reasonable goals and objectives, while providing the scientific explanation. I have improved remarkably in my core strength and flexibility since I started Fall 2019. I completely surprised myself the other day when I was able to exercise with no extra assistance in weights while conducting leg/core exercises. I couldn't have done it without Dr. Kwak. Dr. Kwak understands me as a client, my needs and has made me more productive by helping me re-learn how to use my core and joints again. I have been through physical therapy for 20 years for a myriad of problems while being in the Army. Hands-down. Dr. Kwak is the best and most effective physical therapist I have known.

I have been here several times now and have worked with all the therapists so I am more then ready…read moreto share my wonderful experience at this location. I had a 2-level cervical spinal fusion with rare complications, so I am very special to say the least, lol. First off, let me start by saying I am already familiar with Inova Physical Therapy because my son had to have PT for a pulled hamstring, and we used the Fairfax/Prosperity location. The PTs were great with him and he especially really liked Josh, but the office manager was consistently so rude to clients & staff that it was enough to make me not want to go back there ever again, even though it is a bigger facility (side-note: she's so awful that she is negatively referenced in their location's reviews several times)! Now for the awesome Annandale location: This is my first experience with the Annandale location and I absolutely love it! The facility is clean, and being located inside the Audrey Moore Rec Center gives them the luxury of access to the gym as well as the swimming pool for aquatic therapy. There is plenty of parking and plenty to do; whether you're by yourself or someone comes with you. The actual PT room itself is very intimate & there are never more than 2 clients overlapping at a time. I have had the pleasure of doing my PT with Vanessa, Katie, and Spencer, all of whom are wonderful. Vanessa did my initial evaluation and could not have been any sweeter; Katie is extremely knowledgeable in the different modalities of therapy & Spencer is highly trained to do dry-needling. All three of them are genuinely so kind, caring, and considerate. They really take their time to get to know you, your situation, and your specific needs. They tailor everything they do, every step of the way and constantly modify to ensure you're reaching your goals at a comfortable, pain-free pace. From beginning to end, they are very thorough and clearly explain everything to you, giving you an understanding of what's going on and how it will affect your body and its healing. I could not be more pleased with my progress so far and am always happy to go see them. I really feel so good when I leave; both mentally & physically. If you need PT or are in anyway apprehensive about PT, look no further, this is most definitely the place to go!

This time I stayed within the Inova system and looked for five stars among the Inova PT centers on Yelp. Inova PT Annandale was the only one with five stars. It is a very small facility but the staff is well equipped, educated, professional, respectful, with a great sense of humor. Spencer and Katie encourage their patients while learning PT. Dominique is always welcoming and helps with scheduling, insurance, and payments. I appreciate receiving a personal home program from the therapists at each visit. After ten visits twice a week, Spencer believes I am doing well enough to just come once a week and continue with the home program.

When I say that Sarah Sheridan changed my life, I'm not exaggerating…read more I was diagnosed with an incurable debilitating condition called POTS in 2021. My doctor suggested that I try physical therapy to help improve my symptoms. I was very skeptical at first - after all I went from being a very active person to not even being able to walk for 5 minutes without symptoms. But, I gave it a shot. Now, after 9 months or so of PT, I'm back to walking 10k steps without symptoms and am getting back on my Peloton bike after years of not being able to!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the POTS program to anyone suffering with this illness. Sarah is kind, patient, upbeat, understanding, and a constant cheerleader. She pushes you but not TOO hard that you want to stop. I started seeing results in a couple of months after doing the protocol. Today, I graduated. Not only is Sarah wonderful, the rest of the staff is too. They are all helpful, always with a smile. Make sure you schedule early and often because Sarah books up fast!!

I kind of stumbled into it based on a suggestion from an acquaintance that I check it out because it was convenient. I couldn't be more pleased with the staff and their attitude and dedication -- hard work, mixed with good humor and a can-do attitude. From the moment I walked in the door, Sheryl, the receptionist communicated more interest in how they could help me than in where the insurance money was coming from. She is a lovely person and keeps the place running smoothly. My primary therapist was Christina, and she is wonderful and not for sissies -- willing to push, which is very much what is needed for a joint injury -- but always with a reinforcing, non-critical approach to treatment. I also worked with Ann Marie, also a very dedicated therapist. She is a specialist in treating people with neurological challenges, whether due to stroke, MS, or other causes, and I observed how kind and patient she was with people facing those challenges, while refusing to sugar-coat her advice. Nicholas works part-time, and I also felt like I was in good hands with him, although I did not work with him very much. The place is not huge -- just the 2.5 therapists -- and the treatment feels very personal. I almost never had to wait for my appointment. The ambiance is cheerful -- large windows on two sides of the space let in lots of light. The background music is appealing instead of annoying and not crazy-loud. All of the needed equipment is efficiently arranged. I bought a couple of small and inexpensive PT items, at my own request; no one pushes you to buy anything. They also are happy to tell you where else you might want to buy an item you'd like for home exercise, for example, if you can find it on Amazon. Overall, I would recommend this place unreservedly. Great staff, and I always felt more encouraged and motivated walking out the door than I'd felt walking in. They also were happy to answer any follow-up questions after I had "graduated."

Speaking of staircase, if you have disabilities with climbing steps, this place might not be for you. I met with Lilly today and she informed me the cost of doing business starts at $60 for half an hour and $80 for one hour. The first room on the left is set up for Swedish, Deep Tissue, Thai and Ashiatsu massage (Originating from the Japanese word "ashi" (foot) and "atsu" (pressure). I heard the sounds of water being turned on and one lady getting ready to shower. Another lady sounded like she had just finished showering and is getting her day started. Lilly was dressed in a pink skirt an her wet hair was combed back. She had a pleasant smile on her face as she greeted me warmly. Not a bad way to start the day off. The inside of the establishment was dark, but not like some of the places I saw in Seattle Washington. I was lead to a room on the right around the corner from the showers. The room looked comfortable, but I wasn't ready to pay $80 for a hour massage at the time. Especially when a $65 an hour massage was about 15 minutes away. I declined to get a massage at the time and Ms. Lilly did not take this personally. I will be sure to try them out at a later date. I will be thrilled to write about the massage experience. Hope this information helps for the time being.
