Great availability but poor quality of care. Would not recommend for PT related to a serious injury or surgery. As mentioned in other reviews, it’s just the aides managing your care and which is not amazing. PTs were nice but very checked out, saw them for 0-2 mins each session. Then the kicker is that they’ve been holding a balance over my head. I paid my full copay each time and took photos of my receipts, but their billing company keep emailing me and sending letters telling me I never paid. I’ve sent receipts and emails, but the billing company’s email is monitored by an AI. And when I finally spoke to a human they were even less helpful. If you have the time to wait, find another place.
This place is a PT mill. I strongly advise that you look into other clinics if you need actual physical therapy. First off: I was a physical therapy aide for years and I was not qualified to treat patients without a physical therapist present or if they were not within close ear shot. I have worked in and have been treated by many clinics and what they are doing in that place is illegal, and they know it. I recently had a revision hip surgery and since this place was close to my home, I booked an evaluation for 7 days post-op. When I called a week or so before my evaluation, I spoke to the front desk staff to book subsequent appointments as my protocol called for 1-2 times per week. The woman I spoke to told me that my following appointments would be with an aide. I kept asking if I would see the physical therapist before the aide and she kept saying, yes, but only the first appointment, then just with the aide. I honestly thought it was a language barrier issue, and I know how physical therapy is supposed to work, so I just made the appointments. On the day I showed up for my evaluation, the clinic was packed. At least a dozen patients at 7:30am (they opened at 7am), and it seemed very chaotic. Most of the tables had patients on them and they were clearly unsupervised. I just assumed that they had several PTs (or Physical Therapy Assistants; which are very different than aides) on staff, which was NOT the case, as I’ve come to find out. Twenty minutes into my appointment time, I was taken to a table to wait for the PT. Simon came out of his back office and spent at maximum 1-2 minutes with me. He never checked my incisions, did no physical evaluation of any kind, and after a few unsavory comments, he went back to his office (never saw him again). The aide then attempted to help me get on the bike, but she had no idea what she was doing and I wound up hoisting myself up on the bike, which put me at risk for a fall (fortunately, I did not). She left me there unattended and I had to get someone’s attention to get me off after just sitting there for at least 5 minutes after the timer went off. When I got back to the table, the same girl told me she was going to go in back to check out my protocol. She returned and said that she was now going to put me through some exercises. This is when I truly knew that something was REALLY wrong with this place. I asked if she was an aide, assistant, or PT, and she answered she was an aide. I asked her if Simon was going to continue with the evaluation and she said no, and that she was going to do it. She said that this was how they do it and I could feel that even she knew that this was wrong. That’s when I told her that this was not okay and I discontinued my session and left. Shortly after I arrived back home, I called them and canceled my appointments. The physical therapists on their website have not worked for them since 2021. Simon has lied on my medical record since the visit and has made a false claim with my insurance company. Luckily, I was able to find another clinic that could see me on short notice and I know that I am getting the real care that I need after surgery.
If i could give this place no stars that would be better! Been trying to set up an appointment for my grandmother for a week now and no call back keep leaving voicemails but its seems like this location could care less about setting anyone up i called before 12 and after 1 and it seems like no one is ever there to pick up the phone or it just keeps ringing and ringing and sent to voicemail like what type of business is this! Especially for getting referred by doctors this is ridiculous!!! Go anywhere else but here they really don't care about patients
** I thought the name of this place was Montclair, but it's the same address, so I'm assuming it's the same business with a new name. I don't know how they are legally even calling this physical therapy, REAL physical therapy involves a lot of 1-on-1 time to 1) learn the problem before suggesting exercises (so they know what you need and what might injure you. 2) It's also critical for physical therapists to watch you do the exercises, because doing them incorrectly can cause significant damage. (I'm speaking from experience. I was a competitive athlete and have spent A LOT of my life in physical therapy/sports med.) I talked to the (very friendly) PT for about 30 seconds. They told me to do an exercise I new was not appropriate for my injury (tried it anyway and was sore for days) then walked away. I thought maybe this was an off day, so I called to ask if I'd be getting the attention of the physical therapist and told them that I don't think it's OK to just leave people with injuries to their own devices (I would have been better off researching back exercises and looking in a mirror!) If you like this place, it's because the main guy is super friendly and gives off the impression that what he's doing is fine and normal. IT IS NOT. What happens here in no way even resembles actual physical therapy and their reckless "methods" (if you can even call them that) are going to make some people much, much worse than when they started. It's irresponsible nonsense. There should be a legal definition of what PT is and what providers must give patients. This place would barely qualify as a self-guided gym. I've very literally been to at least 100 PT places and this one is BY FAR the worst. I really don't understand the con they are playing to get insurance to pay for nothing at best and likely serious bodily harm! THIS IS NOT HOW PT WORKS AND I HONESTLY FEEL VERY SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW BETTER! The staff seemed nice. But nice staff does not equal appropriate care.
Personal muy atento y genuino. Sentí que les importaba cómo iba mi progreso y trabajaron duro para asegurarse de que estuviera en un plan de ejercicios que funcionara específicamente para mí. Fue agradable ver a las mismas personas a lo largo del camino; sentí que eso ayudaba a construir una relación de confianza. El personal siempre fue amable, acogedor, positivo, y, de nuevo, parecía genuino. Las instalaciones, aunque estaban ocupadas, nunca hubo mucha espera para usar el equipo ni para obtener algo, y además estaban muy limpias. Necesitar terapia física puede hacer que te sientas muy vulnerable y estoy muy agradecido por la experiencia general que tuve aquí.
