I first came to know Orlando Physical Therapy in 2015, when after several consultations with an orthopedic surgeon and a round of MRIs I was diagnosed with Chondromalacia. I was told to do 4 months of PT and if symptoms don't improve consider a surgery. Wary of surgery, skeptical of PT, but in pain I decided to give a try. During my first visit, Dr. Orlando spent about 25 minutes examining me (which is more time than the surgeon spent with me during my 3 visits combined) and said that he believes I have a hamstring strain, not Chondromalacia. He pointed me to a knot deep in my hamstring (had to press strong to feel it) and said that the scar tissue from the strain causing the pain. Doc used some metal tool, which I later learned called graston to break down the scar tissue...immediately I felt much less pain. Over the next 3 weeks, I did the graston and strengthening achieving a full recovery. I was sold on dr. Orlando, so when a few months ago I developed a patella pain in a different knee (turned out to be runners knee), I chose to go directly to him, bypassing a knee surgeon. Again, he did a thorough examination and prescribed a therapy consisting of graston, taping and exercise. I am in my week 3 and had a first run without much pain yesterday. If you are in search of PT, I strongly recommend Orlando Physical therapy because of his: 1) Clinical approach - address the root cause and not just symptoms 2) Clinical knowledge - he knows the body and how it reacts to therapy. Yes, you can tape your knee home, but it will not be as good as when he does it. 3) Graston technique - I am a big believer, to me it's like a deep tissue massage when you break "knots", which are scar tissues. Graston allows you to reach very deep, something you can't do with just your hands. read more

From the minute I walked through the door I was treated with care and expertise in treating me for pudendal Neuralgia/pelvic pain. I have pain radiating from the femoral cutaneous nerve & the Obturator muscle, that misfires and causes hypersensitivity and pain in the thigh/hip area. The front staff girls are sooo nice, friendly and respectful to each and every patient. The office is also accomodating with their schedule as they have early morning appointments or evening appointments which was another plus. Dr.orlando the owner of Orlando physical therapy is good with people who have a lot of pain, anxiety, fear and worry about their injuries. He has a gentle, natural healer's touch and the ability to sense a person's comfortability factor. I love the one-on-one full patient focus. He really listens. He also stays current on all the latest techniques and products for home. His unique and brilliant knowledge and his total dedication to the patients are unsurpassed! Dr.orlando is always available to answer my questions, whether during appointments or by email between sessions. He also did not hesitate to reach out to my current and past Physiatrists to obtain information needed to improve my treatment. My symptoms have improved tremendously through treatment, and I am confident that with continued treatment, my pelvic pain issues will be completely resolved. If you want someone that truly cares about you and helping you live a healthy, pain free life, then you need To go to Orlando Physical Therapy. I am exercising now, I can bend, walk for hours without pain and made it through with the guidance and expertise of Dr.Orlando. read more

At the end of August of this year I got into a bad car accident and fractured my L4, L5 vertebrae and sacrum. Subsequently I damaged my spinal chord causing me to lose feeling and function of my lower extremities. I was discharged from Kessler Rehab on October 19th and started working with Dr. Orlando on October 28th. I first came to him in a wheelchair with limited mobility and strength. Just over a month later and I'm walking on my own and building my strength back up so much faster than I thought. Even my neurosurgeon is surprised at the progress I'm making. Dr. Orlando's astounding physical therapy skills and great attitude have proven to be the driving factor in my success in recovery. I'm at a point that I did not think was possible before working with Dr. Orlando. His experience alone surpasses that of the PT's that I had at Kessler and Morristown Medical center. I definitely recommend seeing Dr. Orlando for your physical therapy needs. read more

Dr. Orlando is wonderful. He gets to know you as a person, and is incredibly compassionate and caring. For someone like me that tends to worry about any pain or discomfort I feel in my body, he is so reassuring and helpful. I first saw Dr. Orlando for some inflammation in my hips and hamstrings and low back - probably a past injury that had been a long time coming for me to get looked at, and I felt like a whole new person when leaving from my first appointment. He will spend time working on your body, rather than only giving you exercises to do. I have seen him a couple of times and always leave feeling better than when I walked in. His staff is wonderful, so kind, greet me by my first name and are always helpful when scheduling appointments. You will feel welcomed and cared for by Dr. Orlando and his staff and I highly recommend him! read more

I would recommend Dr Orlando to anyone and everyone who needs professional and personal physical therapy in North Jersey. We took our infant son to see Anthony when we first moved to Hoboken in 2013 for torticollis. He was great with Owen and Owen loved going to see Doc. My son is very healthy and active 4 year old now. A few months later I had to see Dr Orlando for a dislocated shoulder, broken collar bone and torn rotator cuff. After a lenghty rehab, I have complete use of my left shoulder and no lingering issues from the injury. He is incredibly knowledgeable and gave me plenty of exercises to perform between visits. A few months later I slipped and fell on ice in front of our building and broke my right femur bone. Again, Doctor Orlando came to the rescue. He is a great Doctor, an even better father and I consider him a good friend. read more

I came to Orlando Physical Therapy after suffering with plantar fasciitis for months. I tried everything, even cortisone shots, and nothing helped! After a few visits, I already felt a difference and now I am starting to feel like myself again. I forgot how amazing it is to be able to walk without pain! I never knew about dry needling before, but I swear this was just the icing on the PT cake!!!! Between this, graston, stims and massaging... I am confident I'll be able to get back to my normal activities in no time! Thanks to Dr. Orlando who really made this all possible! He is kind, attentive, knowledgeable and he really makes you feel at home. Patricia is great also! Friendly office, great service and methods that work - what else could you want?! I highly recommend Orlando PT! read more

Okay, so I have been meaning to post a review for Dr. Orlando for a while now. My husband has gone to him, and I have referred him to many friends (including ones who needed treatment for their newborn babies) so I have seen and heard of how he is a miracle worker. But recently I had to see him myself and so now I feel compelled to post this because I can tell you firsthand that he is simply the BEST. He seriously works magic, sometimes with the simplest little movements that make all the difference in the world. He is super smart, talented, considerate and funny- honestly he is just awesome to be around which makes the sessions a lot less painful. Added bonus- unlike most PTs in Hoboken he is a DPT which is a Doctor of Physical Therapy. And his office staff is really nice. read more

I've been to a few other physical therapists who were perfectly competent, but Dr. Orlando quickly distinguished himself by being genuinely interested in the non-physical components of my life. He gets that those other aspects of our lives can provide insights as to what is manifesting physically in a patient. Because he asked some simple questions and actually listened to the answers, I felt immediately taken care of. I saw him on an ongoing basis for knee issues and just as important as the exercises he had me do was the fact that he convinced me I could become strong again. I kept telling him he was like a coach -- so motivating! I am no longer in his care, but I still do the daily exercises he gave me. I am markedly stronger because of my work with him. read more

As a Personal trainer in town , I am always in the gym bending ,squatting and lifting . My muscles get Tight and knotted. Thank goodness for Dr. Orlando and his Graston technique.

I highly recommend Dr. Orlando. I had ACL replacement and meniscus restructuring on my knee. From the get go...walking into the office you already feel at home, easy, with no pressure. The care is personal and hands on. With the private rooms for after, relaxation and massage, you walk out of each session feeling stronger, more positive. He not only gets you back to where you need to be in terms of strength and mobility, he keeps the energy positive and uplifting which I have found so helpful and critical in my recovery. Thank you. read more

I went to Orlando postpartum because I was having severe lower back and upper thigh pain. During the first visit he did an evaluation, taped me up, and started going to work. Since that first visit, it has been a couple of weeks worth of sessions and I am still going to him. He is doing a great job working out the problems sustained during/after labor. Every time I go I feel better and I am thankful that he is helping my body heal. I would recommend others that have pain postpartum go to Orlando. He will help you get better. read more

This the best PT gig in town! Anthony and Marcia are amazing and the hands on manipulation and tools they use are extremely effective. This is unlike any others PT office I have visited, where you are in a room with other patients and the PT "does the rounds" with all patients. Here, you will be in your own room, with calm lighting and soothing music. It is a whole body and mind experience. And Patricia at the front desk is excellent, as well. First rate establishment! read more

I recommend Dr. Orlando to anyone in need of a physical therapist ! read more
