My PCP is out of Boston but was able to find Patti Piecewicz In Auburn, MA. Her amazing reputation precedes her. My PCP have been looking for Pelvic Floor PT for Men for 2 years! Of course, Like all pelvic floor PT's, she does pelvic floor PT for women as well. She is friendly, makes you feel comfortable and is really good at what she does! I've been seeing her for months after decades of extreme chronic pain. Slowly working through the layers of pain. Every time I leave I feel like a new person. I highly recommend her for anyone who has pelvic floor PT issues!

In May 2009, Bethany B wrote:…read more The eval went well, the first visit was helpful and then it went down hill. When I arrived for my third visit, I was left in the waiting room for almost 20 minutes. When I was finally retrieved the therapist was irate that I hadn't been started on my heating packs yet. That lasted for most of my visit -- not very relaxing. The visit went way over my 1/2 hour slotted time and I left sore. Not sore but helped, just sore and sad. Oct. 2009 - from Rita: This review happened to catch my eye as I was looking for something else. I am sorry that your experience at SCPT turned out to be far less than satisfactory and can appreciate the frustrations and even inconvenience not keeping to schedule can pose. I decided to join Yelp so I could provide remarks about the care I received at SCPT, as someone who has used this facility for about 6 months straight in 2007 and a few months during 2009. I have also continued in their After-care pgm. (mainly rehab type pool where each of us is given our own exercises based on our specific problems - this is an option, out-of-pocket after P/T runs out). This is a really big plus for me or anyone who needs warm water pool for exercising as there are few to be found. I think if a therapist or therapy is not going too well, it is still worth trying to address the problem with him or her. Another suggestion would be to ask to be assigned to someone else as there are differences between them. By using SCPT for the past 24 mos., I have noticed that they will occasionally run into staffing issues and not each and every visit had run as smoothly as I would have liked. Another important point is that P/T often takes 7-8 sessions before a difference can be felt and yes, I have had problems which made me hurt more first, but as a joint or limb was loosened up or the impingement was released, I started to feel the benefits. It takes time to see results from P/T (no matter where one goes) and also hard work on the patient's part. There were times I wanted to throw in the towel, but I didn't. However, by having used another P/T facility in Auburn as well as trying out P/T at UMass Rehab (on Rt. 9), I found most of the therapists at SCPT to be very dedicated, skilled and hard-working. They do have a unique set-up where the treatment tables are all open and therapists work on patients side by side, often coordinating two patients at a time. And I will admit this took some getting used to, but after a while I no longer noticed who was on table next to me or out on the floor doing exercises. In fact, I'd say this is one key aspect of SCPT which I think folks need to know ahead of time so not to be surprised if/when you start getting therapy there. Most of the therapists are quite skilled and most have gone to learn new techniques or use new tools. But there is a difference between therapists - some will be more aggressive or passive in their style and some will be most attentive and caring. I have a few favorite ones who spent all the time they could to complete a treatment - so going beyond one's schedule time is usually very much appreciated, though I understand if someone has a tight schedule, that may not be best for them. The individualized attention and creativity (things that some of them would come up with and really try to find ways to provide a treatment) far exceeded what I experienced at the other facility and at the hospital. One of my favorite therapists did not need to ask me anything as she could sense (or feel with her hands) if her touch was too heavy or whatever. So, I would at least like to leave others with my opinion and personal experiences of this place. Those are all the positives. For me, since I live closeby, I am also very happy not to have to drive a long ways as sometimes it feels the tension of driving on Rt. 290 will undo a lot of the good accomplished from a treatment. The negatives would be how busy and noisy the treatment hall (don't know what else to call it) can be at times. The positives outweigh the negative aspects for me.

BVPT was able to get me a next-day appointment with Dr.Jessica Lynch (my savior with the strong hands). My introductory appointment was conducted in a private room and I felt immediately at ease with Jessica. Throughout my treatment she was professional and understanding, she truely listened when I explained my pain and it always felt like she was in my corner. The space, located in one of New England's repurposed mill buildings, is well organized and *clean clean clean*. The lighting is bright without being oppressive (handy when you're staring up at one during an adjustment or exercise) and there is a wide variety of tools aimed to get you back on track/in motion. Our typical session included applied heat, manual manipulation/massage, and guided stretches and strength training followed by ice. When we started I could barely move, but within 6 weeks (going from 2 to 1 session a week) Jessica had me back out and on-track with my health and strength goals. Absolutely would recommend BVPT to anyone in need of physical therapy! Looking forward to returning for Thursday evening (7pm) yoga lead by Jessica and might even take a stab at a TRX class. Everyone here felt familiar and welcoming, so I'm actually looking forward to keeping in touch (certainly not how I've felt with previous PT offices).

Lots of conversation, electrical stimulation that accomplished virtually nothing, very little hands on manipulation after the first couple of visits, stretches assigned to be performed at home (none during office visits) and invariably less than 60 minutes per session did nothing to increase range or motion or diminish pain. My last visit consisted of a 20 minute discourse on how she could do nothing more for me and when I suggested that I didn't think a co-pay was justified for what could have been accomplished over the phone, I thought it adacious of her to say that I was being disrespectful.

I put in a call to back to health chiropractic to return after two pregnancy losses and a pregnancy…read moreand birth that left me hospitalized a majority of the time. I initially was informed they had moved and were at a new location. I was not happy about this as Worcester was already a haul from Whitinsville and shrewsbury was even further. In addition the chiropractor I formulated my care plan with no longer worked for them. I initially put in an appointment and my son ended up getting a head injury that caused me to miss it. They rebooked me without asking, then I called to ask to verify exactly what I had on my account as I knew it was a substantial amount. I asked them when I booked the original appointment and they told me they had to ask billing and they'd call me back. I asked them again when I cancelled, same response. The. I placed a call Monday 5/6/24 solely asking for the balance, and they said the system was down they had to restart they'd call me back in 5 minutes, at 4:27. One hour later I call back, and am again told billing has to call back with that information. Today 5/8/24 at 9:34 am I receive a phone call informing me $981 is remaining in my account. As I begin to request that money be refunded, they interrupt me "they don't usually give credits back" to which I respond "you have to return credits for services not tendered, and not under the main agreements of my care plan, you guys have moved and no longer have Dr Serena" at which point I was asked by Christine "are you done?" In disbelief I sat in silence on the phone for 30 seconds and she rudely began to say "as I said we don't return credits" and I responded "that was a completely inappropriate and inflammatory way to respond, unbelievable." to which she hung up on. I attempted two call backs at 9:36am and 9:43am which went unanswered. Dr Serena is amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and I adored her. Where as the couple times I saw Dr. Cotter years ago he didn't. Back to health always had substantial staffing from my first appointment in 2014 with their original owner, up until I saw Dr Serena. Now it is just Dr cotter. For lack of response and productive communication I am forced to put in a small claims case at Worcester courthouse, and I have written this complaint so that no one has to endure what I am at this moment with this office.
