I would not hesitate to send any friend or family member to Dr. Cammarata. I'm currently in physical therapy at Emerge Ortho and can wholeheartedly recommend the facility in Arden, and especially my therapist, Malcolm. He pushes me to get maximum mobility and strength, without hurting me at all. I began asking specifically for my appointments to be with him a while back. Overall I'm incredibly grateful to this group for helping me get back to my career with a healthy shoulder. Much love and appreciation!!

I never…read morehave a "positive" experience, but in the long-term, it's been worth it for me to go there, in spite of it all. Yesterday I sat in the lobby and watched the angry lady working at the front desk be completely rude to patients that had come in. Two that were clearly in a lot of pain and she was just outright rude to them. I thought she and one of the male patients were going to get into a fight when she took his payment and then refused to let him have his treatment because his ride could not be there until after the procedure. Go figure? I've seen her be rude to many people over the visits I've made there. I just keep my mouth shut and go in and pay my bill and ignore her but she's awful. I hope she doesn't see this and figure out who I am. The next time I go in, she might treat me terrible. Lol. Go somewhere else if you can. Especially if you're in pain or don't feel comfortable. Or if you need compassion. I think the doctors provide good service but it's not a place to go if you're needing. Any kind of friendliness, from my point of view.

Every staff member our family has interacted with has been friendly, gracious, and caring, starting with Mr. Peters who consistently greets everyone with a smile and a helping hand when they walk in the door. The nursing staff are phenomenal! I have to thank Nurse Cynthia and the Medical Director, Dr. Russell, who helped us get my aunt settled in on Day One. Amanda and Eva have diligently followed up to make sure that my aunt, who requires extensive medical services, always gets the best possible care. Her nurses, including Elizabeth, Marco, Carole, Sean, Mallory, Julia, Olivia, Mike, and Sierra (I'm sure I'm leaving someone out, and I apologize!) are always kind, gentle, professional, and accommodating. They go out of their way to make sure she is happy and comfortable. I just can't say enough about the consistently excellent level of care. My aunt received Speech, OT, and PT services that were specifically designed to meet her individually prescribed goals. My aunt participated in determining what her goals would be in a way that honored and respected her agency. Her progress was regularly measured and shared with her as well as the family. We would like to thank her therapists Nicole, Brook, Katie, Kate, Julie, and Sam (again I'm sure I'm unintentionally leaving someone out!) for all their hard work and for always going the extra mile to meet my aunt's needs, including procuring specific equipment to help her meet her goals. The therapists work together seamlessly to provide excellent support every day, including weekends. The nutrition services at the Lodge are excellent and personalized. Individual requests are not only tolerated but encouraged. The office staff at the lodge know and care about each patient individually. Susan and Shannon have patiently answered all of the family's questions and concerns as my aunt has recently transitioned from short term care to long term care due to her condition. And finally, our enduring gratitude goes out to Courtney, the utterly amazing social worker at the Lodge, who deeply cares for each patient, coordinates services, answers so many questions with grace and patience, and thinks outside of the box to help patients like my aunt live the most fulfilling life possible in difficult circumstances and with attention to dignity.

I am writing this review to warn others about the deeply troubling care my mother received at The…read moreLodge at Mills River. What she endured during her stay was not merely substandard -- it was a failure of basic human dignity that no patient should ever experience. My mother was admitted with a fractured pelvis, a serious and painful injury requiring careful, attentive care. Instead, pain management was grossly inadequate -- her suffering was never brought under control, and she was left in visible, prolonged distress. The facility does not provide patients with catheters despite limited mobility, leaving her lying for hours at a time in her own urine and excrement. This alone is a profound failure of basic nursing care. This is done to encourage patients to get out of bed, one staff member told me. When staff finally did attend to her, the handling of her body was alarmingly awkward. During cleaning, they moved her from side to side applying direct pressure to her fractured pelvis -- causing her tremendous, unnecessary pain. Whether this was due to a lack of training or simple carelessness, it is completely unacceptable for a patient with a known pelvic fracture. The environment itself was deeply distressing. A patient in an adjacent room could be heard repeatedly crying out "help me" -- for an extended period -- with no response whatsoever from staff. That sound will stay with me. It was not an isolated moment; it reflected the culture of neglect that seemed to permeate this facility. The attitude of much of the staff compounded everything. Several wore permanent scowls and did not mask their resentment when asked to respond to my mother's needs. Compassion and patience -- the very foundation of caregiving -- is in short supply when your job is driven by the numbers. I would urge anyone considering The Lodge at Mills River for a loved one to look elsewhere. Families trust these facilities with the people they love most, often at their most vulnerable. That trust was utterly broken here.

Therapists/medical staff are great, but billing is very shady and/or incompetent. Stuck me with an…read moreunexpected bill of nearly $500. I reached out to Compass a few months ago after getting a referral from my doctor to help with some back pain issues. When I reached out to them, I let them know that a previous PT office I was referred to had initially told me Aetna would cover everything and I'd just be responsible for a $50 copay. The other physical therapist office let me know prior to my first appointment however that after running my insurance, my cost per appointment would be significantly higher and suggested I cancel and find somewhere Aetna would cover. Soon after, I reached out to Compass, let them know about this entire situation over email, and got confirmation that my copay would only be $50. I scheduled my first appointment and three subsequent ones - paying $50 each time. A couple of weeks later I get a call from the staff who runs insurance/billing letting me know there was some miscommunication or mistake and Aetna would not in fact be covering my previous appointments and the amount owed would be substantially higher. I told them I'd like to cancel all future appointments then, given that it was way more expensive. I then got a call from the therapist I worked with (Eric, who was great) asking why I had missed my last appointment. I guess the billing staff I talked to didn't actually delete my appointments in their calendar. He said he'd look into it and see what's going on. A few weeks later, I get a surprise bill in the mail for $490 for the 4 appointments I had. A call with Compass confirmed that yes, I do owe them the full amount. I was told it would be $50 per appointment when I scheduled the appointments (and was encouraged to schedule in advance to make sure I got a spot in their schedule) then was slapped with a bill of roughly $172.50 per appointment. I guess I could only recommend this place if you're 100% sure your insurance will cover it, but even then you better get it in writing or they'll probably try and screw you over like they did to me. In a situation like this, I'd expect the practice to waive the cost as it was their fault in not doing their due diligence or communicating the cost at the time of the appointments being scheduled.

Miriam at the Runners Mechanic is truly a miracle worker. I…read morehave been hearing rave reviews about her for years from locals who see her for running analysis, for physical therapy and for dry needling. Although I trust my friends, I had hoped I would never have to visit her. Unfortunately I hurt my arm during Crossfit and was unable to bend my arm and was in a lot of pain. It was obvious that it wasn't broken so I took advice and made an appointment with The Runners Mechanic. When I first called Miriam, she didn't have any openings for like two weeks but after telling her my issue, someone cancelled the next day and I was able to get in there. I did an hour and a half appointment with her. We first talked about the issue and the pain and she began by doing some site-specific massage. She worked on my shoulder and neck and upper arm. Next she did dry needling. I have been hearing about this for years and although I have tried acupuncture in the past, I was horrified. Lucky for me, Miriam was patient and talked me through the process and put no pressure on me to try it. I was in a lot of pain so was willing to try something new. The dry needling process is somewhat painful but is a quick sharp pain that doesn't stick around. And honestly it gives the body a serious release. She spent at least 45 minutes doing this. When I left, I felt as though her prices were reasonable and she was extremely personable and understanding. It was obvious that she is very knowledgable and has tons of experience. Though I left that day feeling no better, I woke up the next morning and my pain was almost completely gone and I had more movement in my arm. The following day I felt almost 100% and had mostly full flexibility. I was super amazed and after hearing amazing reviews about her for years, I am so grateful to pass on the review. I highly recommend her, she's fantastic.
