The PT's are charting while you are doing your exercises. It's mostly the tech's that interact with the person. You receive about 5-10 minutes of hands on physical therapy. Very little adjustments or massage to painful injured areas, no stem, or no heat. You can have ice if you ask for it. The gym area is small, and everyone is watching each other workout. They do clean the equipment in between patients which is a bonus. You must wear a mask which is a good thing. The front receptionist is a sweetheart. If you are an athlete this is your spot. If not... oh well find another PT otherwise you will be made to feel less than or even bullied. read more

This is the most professional and knowledgeable collective group of therapists I have ever been to. This is the second time where they are rehabbing a knee replacement. They spend quality time with you and each therapist watches and helps or corrects you to make it the best possible recovery for each client. Their knowledge is amazing as I have been at other groups which do not compare. I cannot say enough about Mark and Brian and the care they have provided to me to achieve a full recovery. If they see you struggling they will try new things all the time to get you on the road to recovery. I cannot say enough. The Best!!! read more

Mark and his staff are extremely friendly and seem very knowledgeable. They are currently all wearing masks and sanitizing the equipment between uses. The therapy has alleviated much of my lower back and sciatica pain. read more

I never had a need for physical therapy until this past summer when I went due to a frozen shoulder. The facility is very nice and they have a variety of tools to use depending on what you need for getting back to "normal ". It took several months and I made remarkable progress enough to start working at home. The staff worked with my schedule and checked on my progress regularly. I highly recommend this facility for any physical therapy that your doctor may suggest. read more

High level physical therapy expertise with a friendly and committed staff. I have a chronic problem that requires periodic PT and have exposure to several PT clinics in Frederick. Now I only go to Frederick Sport and Spine. Their expertise is on a higher level than I've found elsewhere. They really understand their anatomy & physiology and are up to date on current medical practices - They also focus on basics of propert exercise technique and low cost therapy. They won't run up your insurance bill with expensive tests & gimmicks unlike some others in this town.... read more

I visited this Thomas Johnson clinic today upon my doctor's referral. 40 minutes after my appointment time I am called to the desk. I am informed that Marc, the owner of three clinics, requires a credit card on file to be seen at his establishment. I explained that I am uncomfortable leaving this information on file. The receptionist "checked" with Marc and it was confirmed that I cannot be seen (at this physical therapy business) without handing over my credit card. This sounds unlawful to me. This is a heads-up for others who may prefer not to keep an open credit card on file. I suggested they have their receptionists ask for the credit card information on the phone when when they ask for insurance information to save patients' time. read more

Sport and Spine has been my reliable and flexible GO TO place for a wide variety of PT and rehab needs. Their practice is evidence-based, not reliant on the latest fad or trend. How do I know this? I am a 30 year+ RN and group exercise instructor able to discern whether the prescribed therapy is "the real deal". The certified dry needling providers demonstrate consistent and effective dry needling services. The PT techs are all compassionate and are a seamless extension of the therapists. Each team member is very friendly, professional and confident in the tough love they often have to prescribe. Front desk staff are proficient and welcoming to clients. The full service PT program meets the needs of all age groups focusing on optimizing successful outcomes and improved quality of life for all clients! I have been treated at FS&S for over 15 years and would not consider going elsewhere. read more

Frederick Sport & Spine is the best place to go for sports therapy. I've seen a few other PTs for lower back pain, but they were the only ones who were able to get me moving again! Mark was incredibly knowledgeable and all of the therapists were happy to answer any and all questions or concerns that I had. I also felt prepared to continue my progress once I was done with their program. read more

I've had a shoulder problem for over two years and have never been able to find relief, even after a year of Physical Therapy in another state. The discomfort finally became so bad it was interfering with my weight training progress. Mark has resolved this problem with dry needling therapy and exercises in less than 2 months. I can't say enough good things about Mark or the dry needling therapy. I'm passing all of my lifting goals now. Thank you! read more

I have been using Frederick Sport and Spine for my physical therapy needs since 2008. They are extremely knowledgeable, always professional and provide me with a personalized program that can easily be adapted as my physical needs change. Almost all stretches/exercises can be replicated at home, which has made it easy for me to continue my program at home in between appointments, allowing me to maintain my mobility. The staff is friendly and provides a "fun" and effective environment while still ensuring hard work is a priority. Frederick Sport and Spine is the only physical therapy place for me and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of physical therapy! Thank you, FSS, for your continued care! read more

Tried to use this place and was told they do not accept ANY Medicaid plans. This has the result of being elitist and excluding poor people, such as myself, many of whom would really benefit from a place with water therapy like this - rare in Frederick. I am shocked that they don't at least accept ONE Medicaid plan, to at least give an impression that they care about people at the lowest income level, who tend to be those most in need of medical support exactly because we end up neglecting our pain when providers make it difficult to get seen! Try harder to not be so exclusive - or maybe that is their intention. What a turn-off. read more

Very disappointed to go for my first appointment and would not be seen because I would not give them a credit card to put on file.. I responded Why?? It is our policy she said and your primary insurance is expiring in March. .I answered the girl by saying its not expiring ( i been using for 32 years)and told her its probably the yearly deductible date. She said oh maybe.I have a primary and secondary insurance plans that they do accept. If they dont get paid then somebody doesn't know how to bill properly. When I realized she didnt want to do her job and they want a credit card on file its just going to go down hill from here. I give you zero stars in patient services! read more

I had reconstructive ACL surgery. I was initially skeptical about whether physical therapy (PT) would really make a significant difference in my recovery since I was a motivated athletic person. I started my PT with Sport and Spine due to the excellent reviews of their business. I was truly amazed by the professionalism and knowledge base of the staff. Moreover, they made the PT experience fun, despite the intense effort required for full recovery. I can honestly state that the PT regimen at Sport and Spine made an enormous impact on my recovery. It was clear that I would not have made the dramatic and speedy progress without the support and guidance of the Sport and Spine crew. An absolutely awesome experience. read more

Having been to 2 other physical therapy facilities in the area, this is by far the best! I was partial weight bearing after a broken femur and the SwimEx & Alter G anti-gravity treadmill were a great way to start my therapy. This facility is fantastic! The staff is awesome and work so well together. read more

A year ago I came in with lower back pain and within a few weeks I was back to a semi-normal routine. I still do the exercises that were prescribed by Mark and his staff. Mark and the staff remembered me after day 1 and were always courteous and respectful. I will definitely recommend this facility for physical therapy. read more

I came in with a broken pelvis from a skiing accident and two months later was walking riding my bike long distances. The staff and programs are excellent and they really care about helping, challenging, and motivating you.They are very accommodating to your schedule and the location and equipment are great! read more

Getting in to this place has been the worst experience. I went in to fill out paperwork on 3 separate occasions, telling them my story, explaining i have an injury case and a lawyer. It wasn't until after I set up 3 appointments and went in for my first appointment that they told me they were unable to take me at all as a patient. As someone with a spinal injury I was floored and very upset. I had waited 3 weeks to get into this place and then was told I wouldn't be able to see anyone. Now I have to go through this process again when I could have done this weeks ago had I known they weren't going to take me in the first place. read more
