This review is long overdue. I'm 57 yrs old so this is not my first time at the rodeo but I will say this is the ONLY place I will ever go for PT now. PPT is exceptional in helping individuals of all ages and needs. When I tore my meniscus in October 2024, I actually told my orthopedist that I didn't want to do PT based on my past experiences which spanned places that were either too cautious of hurting me so they treated me like an 80 yr old fragile person or places that had canned exercises that never changed over months with aides that didn't seem to care but rather were just checking off boxes. My doctor recommended I try Penninsula PT so I reluctantly called to make an appointment and asked for a therapist who "would treat me like an active person not an 80 yr old" and Tameka said "oh I have just the person for you!". And be careful what you ask for because Dr Uriah is no joke! His athletic training background in combination with his physical therapy expertise is exactly what I was looking for because he is not just here to get you back to functional - his tailored protocol while intense is always safe but he will push you as far as you want to go. I can honestly say that I am stronger than I ever was because he identified weaknesses that contributed to my injury and now I feel bullet-proof. In addition to the physical therapists who are all very qualified, I've never experienced a place where the entire staff is so uber committed to their patients' recovery and well-being. Here's what makes PPT exceptional: -Focus on patient progress and outcomes: All other places I've been have a set timeslot and standard exercises. At PPT, they don't manage your treatment to the clock - they make sure you are getting in what you need including the ice/ stem even if you're finished with your exercises at 5:45. They never rush you. - Care for all age groups and conditions . When I'm at PT, I see patients across all age groups ( children, teens, young adults, middle age, senior even in their 80's ) working rehab programs tailored to each person's condition and capabilities. I have been going for a year and not only has my knee and sciatica condition improved dramatically , it's great to see others making similar progress. - The aides are spectacular. Given my extensive treatment duration, I have worked with nearly all of them and I couldn't be more impressed by their work ethic, knowledge, intellectual curiosity, and congeniality. These young men and women definitely put you to work with pleasure. - You can tell the ethos of the facility comes from Mark the owner who clearly wanted to build a business that is here to help people live their best lives. Sometimes a place that is so dedicated and committed can be serious and intense but not here, everyone who works here is obviously fulfilled and happy to be here. I honestly can say I came here for the results and enjoyed every minute of the experience and people. Thank you PPT! read more

I'm posting this review on behalf of my mom, Anita. I am beyond grateful for the care I received at this physical therapy clinic. Coming in with osteoporosis was honestly scary for me, but from the very beginning, I felt supported, understood, and safe. Allison is an incredible therapist - compassionate, patient, and truly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything, listened to my concerns, and made me feel confident in my body again. Every session felt intentional and encouraging, and I could genuinely feel myself getting stronger, both physically and mentally. The physical therapy assistants were also wonderful - always kind, attentive, and motivating, even when I was having a tough day. On top of that, the front desk staff, Timika, Maddy, Carl (sorry if I misspelled any) made every visit pleasant with their warmth and professionalism. Walking into this clinic never felt stressful; it felt welcoming. This team truly cares about their patients, and it shows in every interaction. I can't recommend this place enough to anyone, especially those navigating osteoporosis or feeling nervous about starting therapy. read more

I've been going to Peninsula Physical Therapy for the past 3 months, twice a week for my lower back pain. Dr Mark, the owner, was able to diagnose my problem and created a workout that strengthened my core. Dr Mark also massaged my problem areas before the exercises and was receptive to adjusting the massage to the pains I was feeling that morning. The facility was always clean and the staff is great - they were all kind, patient, and made sure I did the exercises correctly. A special thanks to Carl at the front desk, Dr James (who I saw when Dr Mark was unavailable), and assistants Isaiah, Isabella, and Gustavo. I "graduated" last Thursday and my back pain is minimal for a 66 year old man. I received a copy of the exercises and plan on continuing the exercises at home. Thank you Dr Mark. read more

I am so grateful to Uriah Maimone for figuring out what was really causing my hip pain. I have suffered with it for several years, at first thinking it was degenerative osteoarthritis in my hip joint. After seeing a hip specialist, I was told the problem was degenerative disease in my lower spine. I do have that but the real problem and the source of my symptoms was caused by uneven leg length. Uriah evened out the legs and gave me exercises to keep them balanced. I can go back to walking now without that nagging pain! I should also mention that Uriah has a great sense of humor and bedside manner. read more

Just wrapped my second round of PT here. Dr. Mark B. was terrific working with me on a knee issue. Responsive to my progress; patient with answers to my many questions. His assistants were a pleasure to work with. Tameka and her front desk colleagues worked with me on a schedule that worked on my end, and were spot on with reminders so I didn't miss any sessions. Overall a great experience. read more

I received Physical Theropy from Uriah at Peninsula Physical Theropy for my back. He did an outstanding job and my back. Pain has subsided quite a bit and my leg pain is much better. Uriah has a very good bedside manner is very helpful and takes his time to explain things. Uriah is very professional and knows his stuff. I would highly recommend Uriah and Peninsula Physical Theropy to my friends and family. read more

I can't say enough good things about Uriah, my physical therapist, and all of the staff at Peninsula Physical Therapy! I came to Peninsula Physical Therapy when I was dealing with severe sciatica pain shooting down from my lower back into my leg. It really had me feeling physically and emotionally drained. From day one, Uriah made me feel seen, heard, and supported. The entire staff at Peninsula Physical Therapy was warm and welcoming from the very first day I walked in, and they continued to make me feel comfortable and cared for throughout my entire recovery journey. You can really feel the positive, encouraging atmosphere they've created. What stood out the most about Uriah was how much he truly cared. He treated me like a friend that he genuinely wanted to see get better; constantly encouraging me and celebrating even the smallest improvements. I'm someone who's never been a big fan of exercising, but Uriah's support and motivation made all the difference. He was professional, knowledgeable, and really took the time to explain what was happening with my body and how we were going to fix it together. Every session felt personalized to exactly what I needed that day. Thanks to Uriah, I not only got rid of my sciatica pain, but I also got my confidence back! I'm beyond grateful to have worked with someone so passionate about helping people heal. If you're looking for a physical therapist who genuinely cares, knows what he's doing, and will stick with you every step of the way, Uriah is the one! read more

This review is for Dr Uriah Maimone I had partial knee surgery in December leaving only 2 months to achieve full knee range of motion and full strength before my Scotland hiking trip with fifteen miles being the first hike of my vacation. Uriah understood the mission and was up for the challenge (he is very result oriented). Uriah is extremely knowledgeable of the mechanics of partial replacements, the surrounding muscles and knee/leg autonomy. He understands the healing process and designed a progressive excise plan to fit my specific needs and goals. Uriah educated me on each PT movement so I understood how to correctly do the exercises eliminating mistakes and pain. He was encouraging, positive and a lot of fun to be around, each session was enjoyable and fun. At the end of my physical therapy, he spent time teaching me exercises to do at home to maintain all the progress I made with him, which I could do anywhere even on my hiking trip in Scotland. Yes, I did the 15 miles plus the other 6 long hikes and I'm happy to say my knee is doing great all thanks to you and your gift of making people whole again. A big shout out to all the great PT assistants who also helped me and the front desk for changing my appointment to when I needed to. Louise Sans read more

I didn't like this place. First of all, they accept too many patients at a time. In a relatively small PT room, there were good twenty people doing various routines at a time. One seemingly licensed physical therapist meets with me today for the initial 10 or so minutes, he created my exercise program (in my case 3 different moves today) and gave the information to an unlicensed floor guy who made sure I do the routines as prescribed. Basically he counted the number of moves, ten calf stretch 3 times, bridges 10 times x 3 sets, etc. He doesn't seem to have any anatomical or medical expertise other than counting. This place is a huge money making place. In fact, they called me twice to change my appointment time and I found out they wanted to cram as many patients as possible during a particular time segment. I have never been to such a packed PT place. There was no personal instructions as my licensed pt guy has been busy intaking new patients and spent no time on the floor to be with a patient. read more

The best care I've ever received! I literally went to every other doctor and nobody could fix what was wrong, until I came to this physical therapy office! Highly recommend Uriah!!! Now I don't wanna leave! read more

I was referred to Dr. Uriah Maimone last year to treat a pinched nerve. I have worked with several PT's over the course of my life due to injuries related to my active lifestyle. I have a wealth of gratitude for the care Dr. Uriah has provided me with; he's focused not only on treating the particular issue I came in with... he wanted to know everything related to my physical health, from my work environment to sports to past injuries and explained how they are interrelated. He treated my body as a system rather than focusing on the single point of pain. I cannot recommend him strongly enough. You may also learn a bit of Latin in the process if you're actively listening as you are treated! read more

My family practice doctor referred me to Physical Therapy for shoulder, neck and knee pain. I was extremely fortunate to be scheduled with Alison. She was very thorough and knowledgeable when I came in for my evaluation, and went over everything imaginable. Alison's professionalism and expert knowledge about the complete body made me feel very comfortable that I was going to get the best treatment available. She has truly changed my physical and mental wellbeing, and I am so grateful. I absolutely adore Alison! recently moved from Rolling Hills Estates, and I now happily drive 45 minutes each way to see her two times a week. Every interaction you have at the office is courteous, professional and friendly. From Tomika's kind greeting, to all the amazing aids. I really appreciate Gilbert, Kenny, Adam, Brandon and Dillion for the encouragement, expertise, and genuine care. Thank you, Peninsula Physical Therapy for having an unparalleled standard in medical care and in your staff. read more

See all

I don't do many reviews, but I really wanted to do this one because I'm getting amazing (and unexpectedly fast) results healing my shoulder and I give all the credit to Dr. Maimone (my PT) and the assistants that have been taking care of me. You can read the details below but to summarize: these guys are easy to work with, know what they are doing, and they get results. The front staff is easy to work with and is very good at managing appointments availability. And this is great as continuity is very important in such type of treatment. The facility itself is spacious, very nice and clean. Also, it never took more than 5 minutes between my appointment time and the doctor taking me in for the session. From an access point of view, there is plenty of parking available. During my first visit, Dr. Maimone spent a lot of time asking me questions about my shoulder issue, taking baseline measurements of my current shoulder mobility and looking at my orthopedist diagnostic report. He then explained in great details the issue with my shoulder and, using a skeleton and posters illustrating shoulder muscles, ligaments, and tendons, showed me what was going on with my shoulder and why I had limited mobility and pain. From there he explained the strategy to fix the issue and again demonstrated what the results will be and how they will make my shoulder functional again. I was not expecting such extensive and detailed explanation but was very pleased as it gave me a good understanding of what I was going to improve and why. Really helps when you know what your exercises are doing to your body. After this first part of the visit, Dr. Maimone took me to the exercises floor and started to show me the exercises, watch me doing them and making sure I did them correctly. He also gave me a set of exercises to do home. Once he was sure that I was doing the exercises right, he asked one of his assistants to help complete the series of exercises but came back a couple of times to check how I was doing. Once I was done with the exercises, the assistant installed me on a table with ice and some machine that gave electric impulses to my shoulder muscles. All the assistants I worked with so far have been very friendly and helpful completing correctly my exercises. Since this first visit, I had 7 sessions more and my shoulder mobility and pain are very close to normal. At each session, my PT evaluates the progresses and adjust the exercises accordingly. Very dynamic and efficient approach so far. A big thanks to Dr. Maimone and all the staff at this facility. It's a real pleasure to work with them and I get results. Not much more to ask. read more

I have never been to this facility, even though they have called me twice to check on my insurance coverage. get my personal information and setting up an appointment. I am aware that the front desk is a representation of how a business is run, and that's where my problem began. All the recent reviews here are stellar and perhaps their services prove that. But when I called last Friday (June 21,2024) to confirm an appointment that had been made 3 weeks prior, they showed no record of my name or any information that I had provided to them in the previous 2 phone calls. In my opinion, if the front office is this disorganized, then their services must be the same and therefore I do not want to make an injury that I am trying to heal worse based on what I am left to think of this business! I, unfortunately would never recommend this facilty to anyone! I am pursuing another PT office and feel that any other one would be an improvement over this one. Good luck to anyone who decides to pursue services here! Perhaps your situation is one that they will welcome! read more

I came to this Physical therapy center because of the convenient location, but I am staying because everyone is super nice and professional. From kind Tamika who will great you at the front desk with her contagious smile and try her hardest to accommodate time for your next appointment to Mark, the owner, all the staff is extremely polite, respectful and helpful. My PT Allison is super calm, knowledgeable, compassionate and is going above and beyond with the best plan for my back pain. Pain can makes us patients very frustrated but here the entire staff is simply fabulous! read more

Great people and expertise, especially the front desk! The facility is desperately in need of refurbishment. Chairs are peeling and some treatment tables have cracking vinyl. read more

I highly recommend peninsula physical therapy. Mark the owner is both knowledgeable and does an excellent job with his assessment and treatment. His PT staff does a great job executing his exercises. Debbie and Sharon at the front are pleasant and professional. Mark and his team are the best! read more

Came here to rehab my elbow and injured my shoulder instead of overly aggressive exercises

I have had physical therapy at this location 3 times. Debbie, office manager, is pleasant and very efficient. The facility is clean and offers many different options for therapy. Mark, the owner is amazing at designing a program that includes both hands on massage and exercise routines. He also has other therapists ,who seem similarly efficient and especially kind to older patients. I have had therapy over my lifetime from various injuries at other locations so I can know the difference between good and bad Physical Therapy -- I am confident and proud to recommend Peninsula Physical Therapy in Rolling Hills Estates. read more

Former combat sports athlete here. Had a pretty serious shoulder injury that required surgery that effectively ended my competitive career. I had been to 4 different physical therapists in an attempt to rehabilitate my shoulder to actually be able train at some level again and none helped. Dr. Uriah has been an absolute godsend. I have been consistently been going to him for some time now and I have more mobility and less pain in ten years and have been actually been able to start training again. His techniques and knowledge are second to none and he makes sure to check on his patients to make sure they are progressing; he wants to make you better! He also explains things clearly and concisely that way you can understand what he is attempting to do and also what you can do to speed up your recovery. I can't recommend Dr. Uriah and Peninsula enough. Thank you so much! read more

How fortunate we are to have Peninsula Physical Therapy in the area. After several incidences of very painful locking of the knee, followed by a procedure for a meniscus repair, I went to Mark, the only physical therapist I will go to. He is so knowledgable, skilled and calm. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. The support staff are well trained and polite. The facility is well organized and clean. There is equipment there to cover every need. The front desk staff are efficient and most helpful. What more can I say, except I go there with the utmost confidence. read more

This review is long overdue. I love this place and highly recommend them. I have had a horrible case of frozen shoulder in my right shoulder. It got so bad that I could barely move and was in incredible pain. I was frightened and it was very hard to trust anyone with my shoulder because it was so fragile. My mom had seen Erik Hernandez and she absolutely loved him and raved about him. So I went to see him. He has been fantastic. I trust him completely and I truly believe he has saved me and my shoulder. I now have frozen shoulder in my left shoulder, if you can believe that. The only good part about it is that I trust that Erik will help me get through this like he did the last one. He has a very calming way about him. He listens to me and changes his approach based on how I'm feeling. The listening is so important. He truly cares. I feel very lucky and fortunate to have found him. If you're reading this and trying to decide who to go to, please go see Erik. You will love him too. And Debbie at the front desk is fantastic and the assistants are all so great. I feel like I have made numerous friends that I hope to keep in contact with. It's a great place. read more

I injured my back two years ago, since then I have done physical therapy twice. Once in late 2022 and again in mid 2023, both at different locations. Once the pain got so bad to the point I couldn't walk, I consulted my primary physician. I was referred to a pain medicine specialist and had a series of MRI's, ultrasounds, and nerve testing done. The doctors referred me to physical therapy which I initially declined because my first two failed attempts. After serious consideration I called Peninsula Physical Therapy because it is located on the same street as my work and they were flexible with scheduling around my work schedule. Tameka the manager is the face of the business, she is very accommodating and knowledgeable, when you walk in she always greets you with a friendly smile. Uriah is my therapist, he is a spine specialist with the knowledge and experience to properly treat my condition. He is very thorough and patient when it comes to treatment. He explains in detail what each exercise is, how to do it and what area it works. He encourages my progress at my pace without risking further injury.The aide's are all very helpful and encouraging. Everyone there is friendly, positive and work great as a solid unit. I'm glad I chose to give physical therapy another chance. I went from barley being able to walk with a pain level ranging from 8-10 on a daily basis, to living pain free for the first time in two years. I would most definitely recommend them over any other physical therapy group. read more

The fear of re-injury is probably the most common restraint we have in moving forward with our lives. The physical and mental work hand-in-hand in rehabilitation. I have been to multiple physical therapists over the last two years for my herniated discs, stenosis, and degenerative disc disease. I was never able to get over my fear of re-injury. Uriah has been a godsend... he is an athlete, so he understand the body and how it works! His supportive techniques, intuition, and love for his work has reinstituted the courage and strength I need to fix myself. Not only does he explain everything to you from a medical standpoint and what your body is doing during the rehabilitation process, he pushes you to reach your optimum level at the best pace possible. AND, he is always available after hours for a text or call if you have any questions or concerns. When he engages with you, he fully listens to you and puts forth the effort you need for a full recovery. He has given me the mental, physical, and emotional stability in my reeducation process I need in order to push forward for a faster recovery. I can't explain, how grateful I am to have found Uriah at PENINSULA PHYSICAL THERAPY. Thank you so much for giving me lifelong tools to fix myself! And thank you to the staff that work there for being extremely accommodating helpful. You are all pleasant to be around! Many Thanks!!! read more

My family have used Peninsula Physical Therapy for many years. The Physical Therapists are fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Whether you see Mark, Uriah, or Eric (or the others who we haven't seen), rest assured you will be treated with respect and utmost care. The front desk staff are always friendly and helpful especially Sharon. Sharon is warm and engaging and always willing to handle schedule updates. It is always a pleasure going to Physical therapy here and feels like you are meeting with friends who also help you heal! Thanks for all the wonderful care! read more

If I could give 10 stars I would! Peninsula Physical Therapy's facility, customer service, physical therapy sessions, and knowledge are first-rate! I had to go there two different times for my lower back and shoulder and with Dr. Uriah Maimone's help, I am able to enjoy my recreational activities, live healthier, and feel younger. read more

The PT therapists are extremely informed and professional. In addition, the PT aides are very friendly and provide immediate supervision, which is extremely helpful! I couldn't be happier with the quality of care, the front desk personnel, and the PT aides. read more

Good PTs but generally all work is done by and with PT aids. PT does not see of follow patients regularly. Billing process and billing is very messed up! The problems with them demanding overpayment and billing issues including the billing office not getting info on payments that have been made (and required) at the time of visit in the clinic, not understanding how FSAs work when being used for copay makes any positive completely erased. I advise avoiding this PT clinic until they learn how to properly bill and resolve billing errors. read more

Great place and great people. After shoulder surgery I looked for somewhere close to home and very happy with my choice. Mark is always on time and always attentive to my time. The staff is also friendly and helpful. read more

Treatment is fine billing is awful. You are given the impression your Insurance covers, after copay. Than month later you get a big bill and if you don't pay immediately a collector starts calling. We moved over to Riviera PT, they give you an insurance breakdown right away, no surprises. Too bad but they will keep loosing business. I have good insurance. read more

Tore my bisep tendon and my ortho Dr. Nuccion (the greatest) referred me to these guys. Now just 6 -7 seeks after surgery I just swam the Pier to Pier (HB to MB) and will be doing it again next week for the big race. Thanks to the team--Great job Eric. read more

This is a wonderful place to rehab . Mark Argento is an excellent therapist and as owner, runs a great facility. From his PT staff to the aides to the front desk/reception, to the vast assortment of rehab tools and equipment....to the impressive cleanliness, this is the place to go for your return to wellness. Mark has treated me twice for a recurring case of Achilles tendinosis. It's a long road to healing but both times he has helped me return to function and to resuming my favorite activities and water sports. I am grateful! I highly recommend Pen PT! read more

I had never experienced serious physical therapy before my experience with Peninsula Physical Therapy but I can tell you that my experience with Mark and his entire staff has been outstanding. Everyone is professional and kind and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is friendly and clean and comfortable. I have been in therapy from a serious calf strain and burst Baker's cyst for about a month and have become much stronger and close to complete recovery. This is a great place to come to if you need help recovering from an injury or if you just want to get yourself into good shape. read more

Just completed 2.5 months of PT for knee surgery, couldn't be happier with the results. Super-friendly, professional (and patient!) staff. Always felt the service was very personalized and attentive, never "cookie-cutter". Easy parking was a plus since I started with a cane! read more

Do go there! Therapy was ok but billing sucks!! I was out of net for me. So it was agree that I would pay $620 for the first 7 time, then it would be $20 for each visit. Now, I receiving a bill of $150. I called to explain over and over still I'm receiving the same bill over & over & over again!! If it's out of net don't go!!! read more

I have been going to Pensinsula PT since my injury to my shoulder and subsequent surgery for a rotator cuff tear. Mark Argento, my physical therapist and owner, is an excellent therapist who is professional but easy to talk to. I can't say enough good things about Mark. Debby at the desk and all of the PT assistants are very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend Peninsula PT. read more

I had surgery on my back in July 2015 and Mark and the PT assistants have helped me feel like myself again. They are located in a convenient location and the office is always clean and comfortable. The PT assistants are all very friendly and clear with their instructions. Debby at the front desk is very friendly and organized with the scheduling. I have already recommended them to friends of mine. read more

I spent 4 months in PT at Peninsula Physical Therapy. I never dreaded going...which is a big plus! Mark was especially attentive to "special circumstances" of my knee replacement, focusing on the areas that were most problematic. During other PT experiences, I was lucky to see the therapist for 10-15 minutes. Mark spent a lot of time with me before turning me over to the assistants for the routine exercises. Debbie was also great to deal with in terms of scheduling and making things work with my schedule...very responsive and accommodating. The facility itself is convenient (once you find it the first time...listen carefully to Debbie's directions!) and bright and clean. read more

If I could give them a zero I would. While their treatment is fine, their billing company is horrible to deal with. I am 8 months into trying to get them to send me a correct bill. They billed my daughter's treatment under my name and refused to fix it. My insurance got involved and they blamed the insurance for their incompetence. Just got the latest bill and now payments I made are gone and I somehow owe a new amount. I sent them more then I owe just to get them to go away. There is much better PT without the hassle. Don't go here if you want to keep your sanity! read more

I went to Peninsula Physical Therapy following surgery to repair a torn medial meniscus in my right knee. They were referred to me by my orthopedic surgeon. Owner & director Mark Argento, MPT and his highly skilled PT team did an exceptional job of providing me with physical therapy twice a week over several weeks, and just today, I completed my rehab program and I feel great! Mark and his team's support exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend Peninsula Physical Therapy! In addition to the skilled PT team, their location was close by and convenient (didn't have to get snarled in the Torrance/South Bay traffic), I was able to park in ample parking literally steps from their door and their facility is bright, new and well equipped. Finally, all of my Medicare and Medicare supplement insurance billing and payment was flawless and seamless plus all of my appointment scheduling went without a hitch and sessions started on time. Thank you Mark and team for all the great support. Truly awesome! read more
