My therapist (Christine) was excellent! She demonstrated a personal interest in me and took the time to explain things to me. I was never rushed or thought that I was just another patient. My overall experience with everyone there was fantastic!

“My hand therapist, Christine was wonderful. She made me comfortable as she removed my stitches and made sure that I knew my exercises for my hand. She also gave me her card and told me not to hesitate to call if I had concerns or questions. I was so very impressed from start to finish with all of OrthoBethesda. If needed I would definitely use them again and would recommend them.”
