“This practice feels more like a family. From the moment you walk in, everyone is caring and compassionate. I’ve experienced nothing short of extreme professionalism and personalized care. My therapist Jimmy, and everyone who’s assisted him, are fabulous. I highly recommend this practice without hesitation—as I’ve tried many in the past, and would know the difference.”

“My PT Jimmy is knowledgeable and creative. He explains the underlying physiology and the clinical approach underlying the agenda he develops for me. He gives a lot of thought to the exercises that he prepares for me and the specific activities I will do as I recover. They are also so fun to work with, and that matters. I would recommend OrthoBethesda PT to anyone and everyone.”
