Over the 12 months I was a patient of Select Physical Therapy they charged my four times for co-pay…read morethat should not have been charged since I had reached my deductible. I have tried for over a year to have their corporate offices issue me a refund. To date all I have gotten is the run around. The corporate offices have acknowledge that they owe me the money but have come up with so many different excuses to why they have not refunded this money. This is $120 and much is less than one visit that I pay each time I have worked with a therapist. It is crazy to me that they would not pay this money back and I have stopped using them as a therapist in the future. Select Medical Corporation (the parent) has received 1 out of 8 favorable reviews at BBB, where it is unaccredited. I am telling everyone I know not to use Select Physical Therapy in Del Mar. Their parent company operates unethically.

One issue was the room was very small, so I would be hitting my body when getting up. The PT or PTA should have moved the table out but I think they moved so this problem is probably resolved. My 2nd issue is one of the Pt or PTA used so much pressure that I had a black and blue bruise and was in a lot pain. My mom, a registered nurse, wanted me to go to urgent care as the bruising was really bad. My 3rd issue is after my prescription ran out from the doctor they told me I so come back for 12 PT more visits. They did not ask me to run that by my doctor at all. I ran it by 2 different orthopedic surgeons who said no wait until after surgery for more PT. The company then called me to schedule even though my doctors said to wait. From my experience, I do not think high of the PT at Proactive at all.

However, the billing person identified as Mike Smith (who I was told was her husband), billed for more than 10 sessions of Electrical Stimulation treatment. Checks were mailed to their office and deposited into their bank account. He stated the Electrical Stimulation treatment plan was a separate, second one. This is insurance fraud.

Now I can see if I was massively late or have done this before that I couldn't be seen, but you have numerous physical therapist in that facility and you couldn't help me seems ridiculous. I was in traffic and driving trying to find their number to call saying I was gonna be late but I guess it wouldn't matter anyways. I have seen people come in there 10 late and got to see a physical therapist. For me that is the end of me coming to this place I recommend not going. Very disappointed.

The therapists were excellent; however, the billing experience was unacceptable. Terry at the…read morebilling center, who claims to be a manager, was the unprofessional and disrespectful. I attended Scripps Ranch Physical Therapy for over a year before and after a hip replacement. During that entire time, I was never once asked to make a payment in the office nor did I receive any billing statements. I assumed my therapy was covered through insurance. Five months after my final appointment, I suddenly received two invoices marked "Final Notice." When I called to question these invoices, Terry stated that their records showed the bills had been mailed. I explained that these were the first invoices I had ever received and that it was unreasonable to send "Final Notice" bills without any prior communication--especially after more than a year of regular visits. Her response, after a long pause, was simply, "Are you going to pay?" I requested to speak with a manager and was told, "You are." When I asked to speak with the owner, I was told, "That is not going to happen." This level of rudeness and lack of accountability reflects extremely poor customer service. I feel sorry for the therapists who work here, as they do not deserve to be associated with such managers who treat their patience's with such disrespect. I can't imagine how the management treats their employees. I will not return to this practice and will not recommend it to anyone.

I was a returning patient to this clinic after about two years, but because of the gap in care I…read morecame back as a new patient. My previous visits were for pelvic floor therapy during pregnancy. This time I came in for an acute lower back injury. The morning I called, I explained that I was in significant pain and asked if there were any same-day openings. I also specifically asked whether my evaluation would include manual therapy, since I had been told it would be an evaluation appointment. I was told yes. This is the third physical therapy clinic I've been to over the last four years, so I have a good basis for comparison. During my previous pelvic floor therapy at this clinic, I often felt that appointments were rushed. There were multiple occasions when my therapist was running behind because they were still treating another patient. While I completely understand that schedules can get delayed, my sessions still ended at the originally scheduled end time instead of extending to make up for the late start. As a result, I frequently felt like I received less treatment time than I was scheduled for. I overlooked that at the time because I was pregnant, exhausted, and didn't want the hassle of finding another physical therapist. I also genuinely liked my therapist. Unfortunately, my recent evaluation reinforced those same concerns. The evaluation lasted roughly 45 minutes. Based on my experiences at two previous PT clinics, as well as conversations with other offices, I expected a new patient evaluation to be around 60-90 minutes and to include both assessment and some form of treatment when appropriate. During the appointment, the therapist asked me to lie on my stomach. I explained that the position was too painful because of my back injury and asked whether manual therapy could instead be performed while I was lying on my side. She agreed and performed some assessment, but no manual therapy or soft tissue work was provided. When I rolled over to get up, I was told the session was over. I was surprised and asked about the manual therapy I had specifically called to ask about before scheduling. I was told that I had not wanted to lie on my stomach. That explanation was disappointing because, at my previous PT clinics, both therapists routinely adapted treatment when my pain prevented me from lying prone. They performed manual therapy with me on my side without issue. During severe flare-ups, they also incorporated gentle soft tissue work along with heat or ice when appropriate to help reduce pain enough for me to begin exercises. None of that was offered during this visit. Financially, this was especially frustrating. I paid $150 toward my PPO deductible for what felt like a very brief evaluation with no hands-on treatment. Even if my out-of-pocket cost had been much lower, I still would have left feeling disappointed because my concern is the quality of care, not simply the price. I was also surprised to learn that the clinic now charges an annual membership fee (implemented in March 2026) in addition to accepting insurance. Since I wasn't sure whether I would even return after my evaluation, I questioned why I would pay an annual fee before deciding whether to continue care. The staff kindly waived the fee for my first visit, which I appreciated, but I still don't agree with the concept of requiring an annual membership for in-network physical therapy services. Overall, I left feeling that I did not receive the level of evaluation or treatment I was led to expect, especially after specifically asking in advance whether manual therapy would be included. I want to emphasize that my therapist was kind and professional throughout the visit, and I have no doubt she genuinely cares about her patients. My review is not about her as a person. It's about an experience that consistently felt rushed--both during my previous course of pelvic floor therapy and now during my evaluation for an acute back injury. Based on my experiences, I cannot recommend this clinic.

When it comes to quality care, the physicians here really think and come up with solutions to help you get back on your feet -- in my case, it was recovery from a fractured talus. Cole and Makena were amazing physicians who helped me through the time I had an air-cast around post 6 week surgery til I was on my 2 feet lightly jumping and jogging. They were extremely knowledgeable in the various workouts and parts of the foot (which were so complex). I had a ton of stiffness being immobilized for ~3-4 months, but all the personalized progressions they put me through fixed maybe 85% of my immobility. A lot of the PT has helped me gain a lot of strength and can do multiple sets of assisted pistol squats now. Mobility is my main bottleneck still, but without the physicians' help I don't think I could've gained this much range of motion back. Everyone -- from the physicians, aids, manager -- all were extremely bright, warm, and fun peoples. The ambiance itself was fun, and it truly made going to PT enjoyable even if all my sessions were bright and early at 7:30 am. Overall, I really recommend this PT clinic from personal experience when it comes to foot immobilization therapy. The overall care is highly recommended because everyone is so great too.
