My son is a competitive swimmer who has Ehlers Danlos. As a former athlete with EDS, Arona knows exactly how to treat this. My son felt understood for the first time in his life after meeting with Arona. From the exercises, dry needling, massage and extensive education about his condition, everything about his treatment plan has been truly excellent. My son suffered a fractured vertebra this year and once again, Arona was there to explain exactly what he needed to do to fully recover. Arona was invaluable in keeping my son optimistic about his recovery and guiding him on exactly what he needed to do. My son is excited to see Arona and to follow his treatment plan because he says, "Arona has been through a lot with me and has always been right." I have started seeing Arona for my own long term back pain because after seeing how he helped my son, it would be hard for me to go back to any other PT.

It's rare these days to find healthcare practitioners who are genuinely invested in your well-being…read moreand demonstrate this with the utmost compassion and care. Bethesda Physiocare offers precisely this kind of experience, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found it. I had had dry needling in the past (as a part of my previous PT program) and was looking for someone to provide this service exclusively. After reading reviews, I decided to make an appointment with Noelle. My experience with her over these past few weeks has been nothing short of amazing. She is an exceptionally skilled provider who is clearly an expert in her field. Because of her breadth of experience and extraordinary needling skills, I always felt at ease and am now feeling SO much better than when I first came to see her. And she is just an overall lovely person who you can tell truly cares about her patients. The office is bright, clean, easily accessible and modern. I cannot recommend this practice, and specifically Noelle, highly enough. You will truly be in the best and most competent of hands.

I was so impressed with the renovations they have done! I went in there about 4-5 years ago to…read morefind a place for my elderly father. It was, and I am always honest, awful! So, when my father had to be out there after his stroke for subacute care...I was worried. HOWEVER...I WAS SO INCREDIBLY PLEASED WITH WHAT I WALKED INTO THE SECOND TIME! The entry hall is lovely and clean, the room my father is in looks great. The door on the bathroom clearly wasn't renovated, but I don't mind because the rest of the place is WONDERFUL! My dad used to live over at a similar place on Thomas Circle. Initially, I was impressed with it, but then it kept getting worse and worse. Elevators and AC weren't ever working, leaks weren't taken care of, my dads dryer wasn't locked down into his washer (so it won't fall) and it has almost fallen on him (and my son and me) on several occasions. They definitely overcharge for the service he gets over near Thomas Circle, which is a darn shame. I had so many hopes for that place, so it makes me sad. That's why I can tell you with all certainty I WISH I had put my father at Forest Hills! Had I known they were going to be renovated I would have jumped at the opportunity because everyone who works there is so lovely. I will say this...IN SHORT: I am so happy with what Forest Hills has done for my father so far. Everyone who works there is patient, kind, and loving. You can tell when someone likes their job--and from what I can tell everyone who works at Forest Hills must love it because they make everyone who lives there happy! :0) (The ONLY reason I don't give Forest Hills 5 stars is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to get in touch with anyone who works there. Also, I have been given incorrect emails from staff...BUT, once you get in touch with someone THEY ARE GREAT!!)

There were some positive encounters with a couple of staff members. But I am still concerned that changes to dietary needs may not happen quickly enough. The overall quality of care is not good. The attitude of many of the nursing home staff is not positive and there were some major mistakes made while 'caring' for my dad. Staff was unresponsive to concerns and did little to alleviate our concerns that our dad was in good hands. Bones were found in his food and he's supposed to be on a soft diet and little supervision to what or how he's eating.

This location of NRH has a horrendously incompetent billing department and terrible customer…read moreservice. First, they doublecharged for PT sessions, and our insurance (UHC) initially thought my husband used up his allotted number of visits - he hadn't. NRH wouldn't fix it when my husband discussed the errors with them - but you can bet they listened when UHC called. This happened a second time, and again UHC had to step in. Apparently they also "forgot" to bill UHC for some sessions. It's been a full year, and suddenly NRH has sent my husband to collections, with ZERO notice, and with ZERO fault on our end. NRH now refuse to speak with him/us. UHC has said they and we are not responsible for payment if they're not billed within 90 days after the service; again, it's been a year. Our credit rating is in jeopardy because NRH Rehab refuses to have a competent billing department and has terrible customer service. Go somewhere else for your PT - you don't want to deal with this strain on top of whatever injury you're trying to heal. I hope this review warns others before they have the same unacceptable experience with NRH Chevy Chase.

When clients were transferred to Corewood from another provider there was no organized support offered and no significant changes to the disorganization and lack of follow up in sight. It became too difficult to reach anyone, to get clarity on procedures or figure out forms that weren't working, and then also finding billing errors and getting shifted around or given wrong information. I felt on my own and as if Corewood never saw these things as real problems. They had many reasons & explanations which I understood at the time, but I got tired of trying to accept struggling on my own to get simple things you would need and that you are paying for.

After trying three different physical therapy practices in the friendship heights/chevy chase…read moreneighborhood, I was ready to give up. Two of the PT practices were medical factories, processing dozens of people at a time with one-size-fits-all exercises, regardless of the underlying problem. The third PT practice seemed better because it was small, but the "doctor" I saw was a charlatan with and a crook. I was ready to give up on physical therapy, but was persuaded, by my orthopedist and friends, to try again. This time I was recommended to Nova Care, a national firm with an office in friendship heights, and what a difference! This company has the highest ethical and medical standards, with an extremely professional and skilled staff. There are generally two therapists on duty at a time, seeing no more than three or four patients, so that the patient receives close attention at all times. Exercises are focused on the problems presented, and easily changed to reflect the patient's level of tolerance and needs. I can't believe how much better this company is than others in the field. Barri Schnall, my current therapist, is amazing, both in her focus on current problems (spinal stenosis, affecting both shoulder and hip) and interest in other problems that turn out to be related.

The physical therapists always act very kind on the phone when I had to reschedule 3-4 appointments since I am unable to drive a car due to my injuries and needed to find a ride to the location. Then when I arrived for an appointment one day, the physical therapist wasted 15 minutes of my 50 minute appointment blindsiding me with a demand: I adhere to a new cancellation policy of 1 week or more (versus the standard 48 hours). I refused, and eventually my appointment was able to begin. Despite losing a quarter of my session, I was not given extra time at the end, of course. The Schedule must be held sacrosanct! Later that day, I was called by Dr. Cohen to set up a new way of scheduling appointments on Mondays the week of. This was a fair workaround, but I was treated quite unfairly during that interaction; if I hadn't made a stink, I could tell they would have bullied me into unfair terms of service. I think the customer service (particularly Dr. Cody's) could be improved.

Absolute chaos scheduling the appointment, finally get one scheduled for a few weeks and on the day of they call me an hour before the appointment to say they made a mistake and somehow the appointment is only 30 minutes, instead of the normal 45-60 mins you need for your first appointment, but luckily someone cancelled so can I come right now? Considering it's 8am and im running around doing drop off and errands, no I can't come right this moment. Selena the receptionist not friendly or helpful. Would rather wait another month and get physical therapy somewhere else than deal with this headache!!

I just had my PT session for my ACL rehab with Jessica E. and she was unhelpful and really…read moreunprofessional. I was also really disappointed with her subpar bedside manners. Usually, PT sessions are an hour but Jessica didn't even try to get me through a good workout: I came in at 1 pm and she didn't have any other exercises to do by 1:25 pm. SERIOUSLY?! I can't believe I wasted my time for something I could've done at home. She did not give me productive workout for my knee, didn't observe and correct my posture/form during the couple exercises I did, nor did she do any evaluation of my knee's range of motion or strength level. Her communications and exercise demonstration skills are lacking and she just seems so incompetent that I won't be returning to see Jessica. Decent PTs should actually care about making sure their patients get a good workout, learn new exercises to try at home, be informed about their progress in posture/form, and truly want their patients to recover. The one star is for the other staff (clinical assistants like Lauren, Bernadette, Mike, and the front desk people) because they have better communication and professional/common courtesy skills than Jessica. I used to love coming here when John Jowers, DPT still worked there. He is best PT this clinic has had. He was very thorough & professional. He walked you through all the workouts by showing you how it was done, examined how you performed it, shares extra tips & his knowledge about relieving pain in the knees/ankles, and made sure to challenge me through every workout. He made sure to take care of all patients and not just rush them out. It really sucks he left and is at a private practice now. I would totally go and see him if I had time to deal with insurance claims.
