I was so fearful of making my arthritic knees worst in my quest to gain strength before surgery. Celeste has kept me out of pain and has moved me into greater mobility. She is very smart and knows so many adaptations to make an exercise doable. Now I'm gaining confidence that I'll have a good surgical outcome. I will definitely ask Celeste to be my guide through post-surgical rehab. Just can't say enough good things about Movement for Life and Celeste Lotz.

The space is clean, there is plenty of equipment, and my primary physical therapist Taylor Leiby really listens to me and asks questions when I tell him about what's going on with my body. I want to be challenged with my exercises, and he sure delivers! I have also worked with a couple of other therapists when it wasn't possible to book with Taylor, and they were equally as good and made a point of reading through the notes on my situation prior to meeting with me. Tip: Schedule as many appointments ahead of time as possible to ensure you see your preferred PT at the days/times that work best for you, the slots fill up quickly. They're open until 7pm which is a huge plus for me. The front office people are very friendly and helpful too! I highly recommend this practice A++

Each session is a collaboration between therapist & client. Dr. Scortea invites questions, issues and/or concerns from the client. The effort & work that the client & therapist put in at the sessions as well as follow up home maintenance are richly rewarded with the physical results achieved! Each session increases confidence, motivation and quality of performance. One-on-one sessions with Dr. Scortea is unique and personalized. Also, each client is warmly welcomed, valued and treated as family by each staff member. Therapy sessions are the highlight of even a busy or achy day. I can't praise everyone enough!! Discontinuing therapy sessions does not mean discontinuing physical progress & development. Dr. Scortea has patiently demonstrated & has had me practice a diverse range of exercises and strategies that I can easily incorporate within my daily stretching & workout routine.s I am filled with gratitude for the quality of life and functional movement that I have been gifted with, a direct result of the attentive & dedicated care received. How often does one finish medical treatment with the intent of returning not for treatment, but to visit the friends one has now gained? That in itself is evidence of exceptional care.

If I need to see a different therapist because of schedule conflicts, there are extensive notes in my file so each therapist knows my progress. I have worked with Dr Marina Mon and Steve Mack. I recommend both of them highly. Anytime I need PT in the future, this will be my go-to office.

I came in at 10 for Physical Therapy. It ends at 11. And usually I'm seen by Chiropractor within 10 to 15 minutes. At 11:20 I went to the front desk and one of the ladies made a face concerned that I haven't been seen yet. She said she will look into it. At 11:30 I walked up to the front desk and said I'm leaving. This is the second time it happened. If it was the first time I would've written it off. I did not write a review after the first time the physical therapist was not told I was there for a treatment. One of the staff went into James's office and said I was waiting to see him. Yes they gave me a last-minute appointment that morning. I don't know if his schedule was updated or what happened, but he had no idea that I was there and had an appointment with him that morning. This isn't a large office. Luckily the first time, one of the staff noticed me sitting there and alerted James. He said he would look into this and it wouldn't happen again. Well today, I waited 30 minutes. I watched people who came in after me get treated by the chiropractors. At 11:30 when I left someone at the front desk was said: 'she's next.' I should have been next at 11:15 or even 11:20.... and again, I'm gonna say this it is a small office. The front desk could've seen me sitting there. The front desk could've seen that my paperwork hadn't moved forward. The Chiropractor's could easily see me. There are three chiropractors on site. I really don't understand why I was ignored for 30 minutes. So if you have an appointment and you feel like you're waiting too long and you see other people who came in after you being treated before you, you've been forgotten just like I have been. Twice.

Pretty much all of our neighbors have been going there with very high satisfaction levels. Andrew is not your typical "cookie cutter" Physical Therapist who only works from some canned program. He will deviate to meet each patients specific needs. The other plus, to me, is that Andrew is Titleist certified, so he can select exercises that will also work to help you get back on the golf course. I would not even think about going elsewhere. Before Movement for Life opened, my wife went to another place. Movement for Life is drastically superior to that joint!

Therapists/medical staff are great, but billing is very shady and/or incompetent. Stuck me with an…read moreunexpected bill of nearly $500. I reached out to Compass a few months ago after getting a referral from my doctor to help with some back pain issues. When I reached out to them, I let them know that a previous PT office I was referred to had initially told me Aetna would cover everything and I'd just be responsible for a $50 copay. The other physical therapist office let me know prior to my first appointment however that after running my insurance, my cost per appointment would be significantly higher and suggested I cancel and find somewhere Aetna would cover. Soon after, I reached out to Compass, let them know about this entire situation over email, and got confirmation that my copay would only be $50. I scheduled my first appointment and three subsequent ones - paying $50 each time. A couple of weeks later I get a call from the staff who runs insurance/billing letting me know there was some miscommunication or mistake and Aetna would not in fact be covering my previous appointments and the amount owed would be substantially higher. I told them I'd like to cancel all future appointments then, given that it was way more expensive. I then got a call from the therapist I worked with (Eric, who was great) asking why I had missed my last appointment. I guess the billing staff I talked to didn't actually delete my appointments in their calendar. He said he'd look into it and see what's going on. A few weeks later, I get a surprise bill in the mail for $490 for the 4 appointments I had. A call with Compass confirmed that yes, I do owe them the full amount. I was told it would be $50 per appointment when I scheduled the appointments (and was encouraged to schedule in advance to make sure I got a spot in their schedule) then was slapped with a bill of roughly $172.50 per appointment. I guess I could only recommend this place if you're 100% sure your insurance will cover it, but even then you better get it in writing or they'll probably try and screw you over like they did to me. In a situation like this, I'd expect the practice to waive the cost as it was their fault in not doing their due diligence or communicating the cost at the time of the appointments being scheduled.
