Dean Pinciotti

My therapist, Dean was TOP NOTCH! I was very impressed with the facility and staff. The professionalism and knowledge of the staff gave me the added confidence for a successful and speedy recovery. Especially during these COVID-19 times, I felt safe as the state of the art facility was exceptionally clean and sanitary! 

Dino helped me to go from only walking with a walker after fracturing my pelvis in two places to walking without help. He is knowledgeable, kind, persistent, helpful and encouraging. He knows when and how to push! Dino has a lot of experience and he uses it to help his patients improve.  I recommend him highly!

I saw Dean Pinciotti as my physical therapist at University Orthopaedic Associates in Somerset, NJ. Dean assessed the problems as a whole past back surgery, and I was well on my way back to normal in a few short weeks. He was patient and understanding, and he really knew how to make you feel better!  His concern for my recovery was genuine, supportive and professional. I also recommend the facility because it was immaculate and convenient! 

Thank you to all who helped me get back to moving around after my hip revision by Dr. Kayiaros. After only 6 weeks I was walking without a cane and getting stronger each day. Dino was great and explaining every exercise. As we went through the program you could tell he cared about me and my recovery. See you all next year when I get my other hip done! 

The team at UOA did an amazing job at helping me recover from an injury and subsequent knee surgery. I walked into the Rehabilitation Center very concerned about my ability to regain full mobility. Dino Pinciotti, my Physical Therapist and Director at UOA, put me at ease and worked hard to get me to where I needed to be. Dino and team were very professional and encouraged me every step of the way! Without their dedication and knowledge, my recovery would not have moved along as smoothly and quickly.  Additionally, support from their entire team, Joe Abadir, Sarah, Hannah and others made the experience at UOA quite positive. They were constantly monitoring me and their attentiveness made all of the difference in my full recovery. Thanks to all!  

I was diagnosed with snapping hip syndrome this fall. It was so painful that my injury kept me from playing soccer. Dino was very thorough and knowledgeable about my injury.  He was able to get me back to playing very quickly. I highly recommend Dino to help get you back on the court or field as fast as possible.  

My total knee replacement was performed by Dr. David Harwood at UOA Surgical Center in Somerset on March 20, 2020. My subsequent physical therapy with Dean (Dino) Pinciotti, PT, Director of UOA Center for Rehabilitation & Sports Excellence is a bright spot in this very challenging year of 2020. I could not have asked for a better physical therapist. Kind, gentle, skilled, attentive and always made sure to push me a little harder each week to be certain that I had the opportunity to get as much flexibility and strength in my surgical leg as possible.

I would remiss if I did not mention the kindness and friendliness of Ryan, Ben, Sara and Jill.

Excellent treatment by Dino. He made you feel comfortable, relaxed. Most of all, after many years of suffering with lower back pain from scoliosis and gradually going down my right thigh, I am now able to stand from any sitting position without pain. I am now at home working for a little more relief on my own thigh.

I was nervous about going to PT after my hip replacement due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but Dino was the best! He made me feel comfortable. They spread appointments every hour so no one was at risk. The gym was immaculate and they wiped everything down every time! The entire staff is friendly and very helpful. They’re amazing at getting you back into shape. I highly recommend UOA Rehab!

After a series of sports injuries, I was fortunate to have Dino Pinciotti as my physical therapist. In a couple of months, I found myself improved to an extraordinary extent. He understood exactly what my issues were and came up with a double home exercise program which I continue to follow. I cannot thank him enough nor recommend him more highly.
