ACE's business model for PT is to see as many patients as possible during the day. I go elsewhere ASAP. ACE was close to my home so went there for three weeks back in Nov-Dec. I didn't know any better until I went to OrthoVA Physical Therapy afterward it was night and day. At Ortho, I spent about 30 minutes with one on one with my therapist and then 30 minutes with a Personal Assistant guiding me through the exercises. I will say that if the appointments were structured in a way where I had 30 minutes each visit with Pramod, I think it would have been great, but this is not ACE's business model

First, walking into the office the receptionist was very friendly and helpful with filling out the additional paperwork they need that is not on their website. After completing that I waited a few minutes then Dr. Johnson took me back to an exam room where she asked me some additional questions about my initial accident and the issues I have had since then along with any information from my ortho that would be beneficial for treatment. From there she brought me out into the therapy room and did a few test for range of motion, did a nice shoulder massage, some exercises, then ice before concluding our appointment. She also gave me a print out of the exercises for me to do at home until my next appointment. Walking into my first PT appointment i was a little nervous seeing everyone out doing their treatments together since i tend to be a little on the shy side and have social anxiety however, Dr. Johnson kept talking to me and all the other PT's are talking with each other so it is easy to join in the conversation especially with the other patients whom were all friendly as well. This will be my home twice a week for the next 3 to 6 weeks depending if I need surgery or not then maybe a little while longer. I highly recommend not only Dr. Johnson but the other PT's at the Fairfax location as well. I did not see one with a bad attitude or seem like they are just there to collect a paycheck. SCHEDULE ASAP!

Dr Wagner is a very skilled, honest, and humorous practitioner. I've spent 20+ years working in…read moresurgery. 8 years specializing in spine surgery and defects of the spine. I'll admit, after being involved in thousands of spine operations, the tables turned when I became the patient. Connie, the tech helping during my procedure and running the X-ray was amazing as well, I was lucky enough to have her in my procedure both times. If you go as a patient to have an injection, request her. Very professional and down to earth. Eases whatever nerves you may have about the injection. Dr Wagner is very up front. Tells you his honest opinion. Tells you what you NEED to hear, not what you WANT to hear. First injection didn't work, which he warned me of statistically beforehand. Second injection is next week. Said he will try twice and no more. He's not trying to add to his bank account by doing countless injections when statistically the chances of them working get drastically lower after #2. Calms my nerves with his great sense of humor. I'd HIGHLY recommend him to friends and my peers in the surgical community. It's a little weird for me personally being under the needle rather than holding it. Great experience though.

I saw Dr. Wagner because my DO thought I might have a torn labrum in my hip, as well as chronic…read moretendonitis in my shoulder (I know, I know, I'm a mess). Dr. Wagner appears to be the authority for Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections, which might help with the tendonitis, and was recommended for prolotherapy of the hip. As an aside, if you're looking to do RPR, make sure you don't have Aetna, as they are the only insurance that doesn't cover this procedure. My DO (who I've reviewed here) refers his patients to Dr. Wagner for prolotherapy of the hip because he does it under fluoroscopy (a continuous X-ray), which is important because the hip joint is such a deep joint you don't want to go in there blind. Dr. Wagner seems like a nice guy, and very knowledgeable in his fields. After the first visit he ordered an MRI with contrast. At the second visit he checked out the MRI and it turns out that I don't have a torn labrum so he was unable to help me, and by the time the second visit came around I had my tendonitis under control. However, his demeanor and his apparent abilities gets him four stars in my book, although it should be noted that I have not had that much interaction with him. One thing that should be known about him is that when the diagnosis deals with something that falls outside his expertise he gives very conservative advice. For example, if one were to have femur-acetabular impingement he would advice no running, rowing, cycling, or any weight lifting that puts additional load onto the hip, even if it doesn't cause pain. This is not a bad thing, but a good thing, playing it safe with issues he's unfamiliar with is very reasonable. I merely mention this because I feel like it should be worth noting.

The doctors are good as is the physical therapy practice. The problem is billing. I have a…read moreprimary and a supplemental insurance provider. OrthoVirginia submits the charges to the primary insurance and then bills me for what the primary does not pay while they wait for payment by the supplemental provider. The amount "due" pops up every time I log in to the portal to check in for appointments which is quite irritating. This is on top of multiple paper bills sent via USPS that have a payment due date of the day I receive them. While my supplemental insurance shows all charges paid, it takes OrthoVirginia a very long time to properly credit payments (if at all). In the interim they annoy you with check in pop ups and paper bills. I have called multiple times about this and once I finally get past the AI agent, I receive the same person who appears to be offshore. The agent can see the payments were made in full by my supplemental insurance. I am assured the issue is being escalated however continue to receive reminders about amounts due that have long been paid. As I go in once or twice a week for physical therapy this will be an ongoing issue that is quite frustrating.

I am a 63-year-old woman with multiple chronic conditions that cause widespread daily pain. My…read morerheumatologist referred me to this pain clinic, and I was hopeful I would receive both a treatment plan and some relief while waiting for longer-term treatments. Although I have already had numerous X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, additional X-rays were taken during my visit. I showed Dr. Sundar an insurance approval letter for a new infusion that will help my pain and condition but he said he was not familiar with the medication. I told Dr Sundar I was experiencing new pain that started 2 days ago and thought it to be Sciatica but he totally dismissed me, he would not check out condition. He told me he does not prescribe pain medication and could refer me to physical therapy, order new MRIs, and schedule steroid injections months down the road. I asked if there was anything that could help with my pain until those treatments took effect. He replied that if I was in pain, I should go to the emergency room. When I questioned why new X-rays were taken after he said X-rays don't show those problems, the conversation became confrontational. I felt he raised his voice and spoke to me in an unprofessional manner, so I chose to leave. I understand that doctors have different approaches to pain management, but every patient deserves to be treated with respect, compassion, and professionalism. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. There are many different NSAIDS that are prescribed for pain daily, this doctor does not have to prescribe a narcotic but could have easily prescribed Motrin or Voltaren Gel or given an insert for how to treat Sciatica but this doctor just says he does not prescribe medication period. However if you pull him up on his Youtube channel he list his protocols and the first thing on his list is Medication.

Persistently Non-communicative Office Support When Trying to Coordinate Care…read more On one hand, the doctors at INOVA Medical Group Sports Medicine are great - the challenge is getting the office support to respond in order to receive the care needed. We contacted them to get my wife's gel shots for her knee, which we have been doing since late 2023. Seems like every time is the first time they've done this. This year we contacted them in April to order the shots and never received a call back. Called again in May... nothing. Called again in June, and they finally ordered the shots but with two issues: it was a different prescription than my wife has had before that cost over 3x as much ($1466.99 vs $368.92) and because they didn't get it filled til July, the cost was 100% on us, since we were now in a new deductible year for our insurance (begins 1 July). When my wife tried to get help from the nurse manager, my wife got blamed for this dilemma and then via mychart messaging said she would no longer engage on this issue, since I reached out to INOVA Patient Relations for their assistance - who have also not returned any of my calls. Additionally, I messaged my wife's doctor directly via mychart and have not received any communication there as well. I've spoken with initial office staff who logged our concerns on 19, 24, and 26 August - promised each time I'd receive a call back; but none have occurred. Very disappointing to be stonewalled this way considering the great medical care we've both received from the doctors in this practice. 27 Aug UPDATE: After writing the above on 26 August, sent this to my doctor and let them know I'd be posting this on the 27th if I hadn't heard anything back from them by noon that day. Saw a mychart post that they called and left a VM for my wife on her mobile that morning. I've previously explained to them that my wife has no cell access during their operating hours, and have repeatedly given them my number instead since I'm retired and available all throughout the day. Called that person back in the morning and once in the afternoon and sent the info to my wife who called and had to leave a VM as well, but neither of us ever received a call back, today (27th). Called their main number and was connected to one of the persons who attempted to help me previously. She apologized and said that she was messaging with the office manager and that it had been elevated. She confirmed my number and said I'd receive a call from one of the same two people who were supposed to have called me on the 24th. I asked if they'd call me today, and she said they'd call when they got out of their meeting; told them I'd be patiently waiting. No one called. Feels like this office staff is giving us the silent treatment, waiting us out... hoping we'll just go away. 28 Aug UPDATE: It's after 11am and no call. Reached out to their practice manager (again) and left her a VM. Received no calls again today.
