He was wonderful from the first moment we saw him. He was an unusual person in that he was honest and true and sometimes you don’t see that in surgeons. He was just a very decent person.
“I’ll take that (UOA) staff over the ER any day!” exclaims Stephen Russell, a 71-year-old from Somerset, New Jersey. That’s exactly what Russell was thinking during the painful 24-hour period after a fall that broke his hip.
Read Stephen Russell’s Story
He was skilled, accessible and attentive in the hospital, with a great bedside manner.
Everyone at the hospital was wonderful, my physical therapist was outstanding and encouraging, and Dr. Doumas really knew what he was doing. Within a few days of my surgery, I sensed a change for the better and even went on milder pain medication.
He’s a great blend of someone who is highly competent and stays on top of his game. Talking to him is like talking to a friend. The nurses spoke about the implants and techniques he was using and how cutting edge he is. But my body finally feels the way it’s supposed to. The change from last year to now is amazing.
My therapist, Neveen Gabra, was very professional as well as extremely knowledgeable. She was patient and explained each exercise thoroughly. Although she pushed me past what I thought I could do, and I could feel the soreness, everything she did got me closer to my goal – walking without pain and no limp. I would recommend UOA to anyone, and specifically, Neveen Gabra, as well as Greg Roth. I have been to other therapy facilities – this is the best.
I would like to thank the entire physical therapy staff at UOA as my recovery from a total knee replacement was a positive experience thanks to the dedication and professional care I received. My therapist was Christine, who was very attentive and caring with each visit. All of the therapists seem to love their patients!
I came to UOA for physical therapy due to a labral tear on my right hip and lower back problem. From the start, Lynn, my physical therapist, made me understand that the physical therapy program I was to undergo would not heal the tear but would strengthen the muscles that support the hips. After a few weeks of therapy, the back pain was gone and the hip pain and soreness improved a lot. Lynn was very professional and responsive to all my questions and concerns. Her team as well was very helpful. The receptionist was also very friendly and helpful with scheduling my appointments.
This is a world-class physical therapy facility. I was referred here by my surgeon. Kristin was my therapist after my knee replacement surgery. She is very knowledgeable, caring, and very encouraging. At first, I was skeptical about using this facility since it is not in my insurance network (which means that I had a higher copayment for every visit). After my first two visits, I decided to stay with it until recovery. I also would like to thank Lynn, who assisted me in pre-surgery and after surgery prior to discharge.
I would recommend UOA PT to my friends. Kristine made my treatment a wonderful experience. She was compassionate, competent, and very knowledgeable. She is a great asset to UOA.
