Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I wish I could say Eastside Sports Rehab was my first rodeo with PT. Unfortunately after a torn ACL, I rehabbed with another well known PT practice with several locations. My conclusion after 18 months? PT is something of a hoax. What changed my mind? A referral to Eastside Sports Rehab for neck pain. I got better. And a referral years later for knee pain. I got better. And a recent referral for shoulder pain. It’s under control. No one at Eastside Sports Rehab seemed surprised. They truly DO help people. They go about their work with a combination of joyfulness and seriousness that makes the process almost enjoyable.
Fantastic experience: Eastside Sports Rehabilitation is amazing. They’re extremely knowledgeable, attentive, kind, and have helped me overcome three injuries I wasn’t sure I’d ever fully recover from. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Negative experience: Based on my experience, the manager/owner- Jamie may be emotionally unregulated and the receptionists lacked professional accountability. After 4 visits, I told them in-person that I needed to reschedule some future appts and they failed to update their calendar so after I went into the office for treatment, it felt like Jamie blew his lid on me in person by allegedly yelling, and accusing me of lying- inside of a closed office with no witnesses! What an awful thing for an owner of a company to do to a handicap medical patient!
Fantastic experience: I received fantastic care from Christopher Bocker when I had vertigo a couple weeks ago. A lot of other vestibular specialists had a wait of several weeks, but Eastside Sports was able to get me in within 2 hours of my call. The visit itself was amazing, he spent the full hour evaluating, discussing, and planning for next steps. I left feeling much better and more optimistic about what was happening with me. I cannot recommend Christopher Bocker enough, and if I ever have vertigo again, Eastside Sports will definitely be the first place I go.
Fantastic experience: I have been to so many PTs and I will recommend this place to everyone I know. They really listen to their clients and adjust the plan as needed with any setbacks- I felt really valued. The PTs are extremely knowledgeable as well, this is my first time "graduating" out of PT but with a successful day-to-day plan and I finally feel "fixed."
Fantastic experience: My experience at Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic has been nothing short of amazing. After being in and out of surgeries and physical therapy for over five years, I was apprehensive about trying a new physical therapy when my orthopedic surgeon suggested it. However, I'm so glad I found them. My therapist, Cara, made me feel seen. I loved how they use a whole-body approach, taking into consideration soft tissue, while supporting muscles and joints during recovery. She's always patient with me, knowing when to push and when not to.
Fantastic experience: A couple of months ago, I finally could no longer ignore my sciatic pain, which severely impacted my daily life. Desperately and purely by chance, I found Dr. Amie Huynh with the Eastside Sports Rehab clinic in Bellevue. Amie calmly helped me to focus on what I needed to work on the most. She is meticulous about ensuring that I can understand her coaching and see for myself the impacts of my movements. She has been guiding me to progress with patience. Of course, I am feeling much better now. Amie and I did a strength and mobility test a few days ago. My strength and mobility are so much better than what was measured during the initial evaluation Amie and I did a couple of months ago. She is one of those amazing professional women that I feel so lucky to bump into and obtain help from. Thank you Amie!
Fantastic experience: I’m so thankful for the staff at Eastside Sports - they are wicked smart, kind, and work tirelessly to understand your specific needs and customize a treatment plan. I wish I had discovered them sooner.
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Michael Yamashita to recover from various running related injuries over the past 10 years, and also with Kaitlyn Sparkman for the past 3.5 years. Every time I have been impressed by the expert care I received which brought me back to running happy and healthy again. Most recently I got Plantar Fasciitis 7 weeks before a marathon. I couldn’t even walk properly and was afraid I wouldn’t be able to do the race at all. But Michael reassured me that I had stopped before it got severe, and I would be able to recover in time. I had several ASTYM Therapy sessions with Kaitlyn over the next 6 weeks, and did all the exercises they prescribed for me. I carefully followed a run/walk program which got me running pain-free again in perfect time for the race. I am very happy to note I not only finished the marathon, but had a great time and the heel did not complain at all! I of course hope I can stay injury free, but if I need help to recover again, I fully trust Eastside Sports Rehab will get me there. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Negative experience: I’ve been receiving treatment at this clinic for over six months, and I was disappointed with my recent experience. Last week, due to urgent work issues and the need to help my mom, I was late for my appointment. When the front desk called me, I mentioned I was just a few minutes away and that we should still have about 30 minutes left by the time I arrived. However, the front desk still canceled my appointment and charged me a $150 no-show fee. I’m in the final stages before PT free, and what I had booked was a check-up appointment every 2 to 3 weeks. 30 minutes should have been sufficient for me. I understand the need for policies, but this felt a bit harsh given the situation. When the clinic was dealing with insurance issues and asked patients to communicate with their HR departments for support, I understood and even wrote a letter. But when patients face emergencies, the clinic doesn’t seem to extend the same understanding and support. Everyone can have a bad day. I wish there had been more flexibility or a different way to address the situation. Overall, the service has been good in the past, but this experience has made me reconsider.
Fantastic experience: Eastside has a great & helpful staff. While I’ve dealt with nagging injuries, they have been great in helping get back to my activities. And it’s fun.
Fantastic experience: I came in with right knee pain while training for my first marathon. I wasn't able to run for a month and a half without major pain. I first had my consultation with Jamie who determined I had a high arch as well as very bad flexibility which lead to me having knee pain. He created custom insoles for me and while waiting for them to arrive I was getting PT from Cara. Cara was very helpful in showing me exercises for strengthening my weaker areas and lowering my knee pain. Once I got the custom insoles, Jamie further adjusted them to make sure that when I ran my feet were hitting the ground correctly. After the PT and the custom insoles my knee pain is pretty much gone, and i've been able to run half marathon distances without pain anymore
Fantastic experience: Couldn’t be more grateful that I found this group, I’ve been dealing with lower back and hip pain for many years. I have tried 3 other therapy companies, Eastside was my 4th and last hope. I’ve been working with Jamie and Amy, both who are incredibly professional and knowledgeable about my issue. After just a couple of sessions I was able to walk on the treadmill over 30 ,minutes, previously I was lucky to go 5 to 7 minutes. Eastside has been a life changer for me and I will forever be grateful for their help.
Fantastic experience: Chris Bocker has been my go-to for any back, neck, arm and hand issues I've had for about 14 years. He is just excellent and I can't recommend him highly enough. His wisdom and knowledge seem unparalleled—the best OT or PT I've ever encountered.
Fantastic experience: I had whiplash, which caused my left shoulder to seize up. Christopher Bocker was truly amazing. In less than a week I was feeling normal again.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this place and Allison Fetchero for the schroth method! I have pretty moderate scoliosis (36 degrees) and started feeling low back pain severely a couple years ago. Tried regular physical therapy and chiropractors since I was a teen, which works for a bit but the dull pain always came back. Then I researched about the Schroth method and decided to give it a try at Eastside Sports Rehab. Allison showed me a few stretches along with a couple exercises and man, it works like wonders. I wish I tried Schroth from the get go but regardless, I’m very satisfied with the results. Dead hangs have helped the most surprisingly. If you have low back pain and scoliosis, this is the rehab clinic you’ve been looking for. Don’t wait!
Fantastic experience: I’ve had a lingering shoulder issue for years and have been working with Jamie the last few months. I really appreciate how much progress has been made since (range of motion, strength) and that he’s willing to help me with other random issues that pop up along the way.
Fantastic experience: I recently had a full hip replacement and was referred to Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic for my post op care and specifically Lisa Van Loben Sels. I have always been very active, from swimming to running marathons. The care I have received is top notch. Two years ago, I had my other hip replaced and the difference in my physical therapy has been night and day. I strongly recommend Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Debra! We truly appreciate you and enjoy working with you.
Fantastic experience: I’m so happy to find Kaitlin at Eastside Sports Rehab I had PT years ago for a foot and ankle injury and basically all they did was put me on a stationary bike, I recovered but never really gained my strength back. With Kaitlin I feel that she challenges me and in a short amount of time has helped me gain strength from my most recent surgery as well as my previous one. I don’t normally do reviews but I just have to say that a good Physical Therapist can make all the difference to your recovery and continuing health and I’ve found that with Kaitlin. I would totally recommend Kaitlin and ALL the staff at Eastside Spirts Rehab for PT.
Thank you Cindy, for taking the time to write such a great review! We're thrilled to have Kaitlin back and happy that your experience with her is a fantastic one.
Fantastic experience: I've been to PT before at several places. Most PT clinics seem to have you spend the majority of your appointment with an aide or tech doing exercises that you could be doing at home and only a short time with the actual Physical Therapist. Completely different here! You spend the entire appointment with your Physical Therapist! Jamie is awesome to work with and very personable.
Fantastic experience: Easy to follow instructions and exercises. Recovering well with increasing range of motion and decreasing pain in third day.
Fantastic experience: I met Chris for my shoulder pain n he is absolutely amazing. He exactly knew what was happening and helped me heal and also shared exercises I should work on. I have been to other physio clinics but this one is a class apart! If you are looking for a good place that cares and knows what they are doing then look no further. So blessed to have stumbled upon them on google
Positive experience: Parking below, take elevator or stairs up, not extremely well marked.
Negative experience: The charges went through the roof and some were not accepted by insurance. The quality of service was not exceptional because it didn't help the condition much. I have been to better physiotherapist and this is not that good. You may want to try a few sessions and decide if you like it.
We never like hearing that someone has had a bad experience so we try to turn it into a teachable moment. In regards to the charges, we routinely monitor industry standards and had not made a fee adjustment in the last 8 years until recently when we found that we were actually below the average range within our industry. We perform a complimentary benefits verification prior to a patient's first visit in hopes of avoiding any unwanted surprises however, it is never a guarantee of payment by your insurance company. We highly encourage our patients to also be mindful of their insurance benefits because every plan varies. If you were dissatisfied with your treatment outcomes we would be happy to bring this to your therapist's attention and as stated earlier, use this as a teachable moment. However, you don't reveal your name so we are at a loss of which therapist to speak with. This comes as a bit of a surprise given our model of individualized one on one hour long treatment sessions which in most cases yields very good results. If you would like to discuss further please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected].
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this place for anyone who needs physical therapy. The front desk was really nice and helpful, Nathan explained the insurance questions I got patiently and clearly. Working with Kaitlin, she is really nice and professional. Manual massage therapy helps a lot!

Fantastic experience: Working with Michael and Kaitlyn Morgan is always such a pleasant experience. Kaitlyn Morgan will do everything to help you get back into tip top shape. She goes above and beyond, and really cares about her patients. She will help encourage you along your Physical Therapy journey. I didn’t want to write this review because then Kaitlyn would be booked up, but she really does deserve the recognition. She really cares about her patients, and you feel that when you work with her. I really enjoy receiving treatment with either Michael or Kaitlyn M. Both are so great!
Fantastic experience: Great team, I was lucky to work with Chris Bocker I have a disc herniation, he's educating me, I learn new methods to practice mentally and physically, coming here twice a week expedited my healing process in the best way. I'm grateful
Fantastic experience: While I did not have a sports related injury my PT from my total knee replacement had ended and after months of still doing that PT and no change a good friend recommended ESRC.
Thank you JR!
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at Eastside Sports Rehab. Lisa Van Loben Sels is so kind and super knowledgeable on how to treat me and I always feel like a new man after every visit. The front desk receptionists are also so personable and treat me like a friend rather than just a patient. I love coming into this clinic and highly recommend it for anyone that needs help recovering from an injury.
Fantastic experience: Brandon did a fantastic job helping me through the recovery process for my shoulder surgery earlier this spring. He continually worked with me to monitor my symptoms and progress, and adjusted my PT program appropriately. Thanks for the great work Brandon!
Thank you so much Jon!
Fantastic experience: Lisa van Loben Sels is amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, patient and caring. In just 3 visits she’s made a huge difference in my shoulder that’s been a problem for over a year. I am excited for what is yet to come with more visits and to get back to my desired activities.
Fantastic experience: We visited Eastside Sport Rehabilitation Clinic because of small sport injuries for couple of times. Michael is very professional and detailed. He always clearly explains the whole treatment. I also really appreciated Michael always followed up after the treatment. I highly recommend this office for PT.
Thank you so much Marie! We're so happy you had a great experience!
Fantastic experience: I am an active adult who has osteoarthritis and I get injured on occasion. I have had 2 hip replacements and I am still very active. I attribute this to my PT at ESRC (& my hard work). You work with a fully accredited therapist throughout your therapy duration. The therapists are professional and fun to chat, and explain how your body works and why you are doing specific therapy and exercises. I believe most of the PT's have some type of competitive athletic background which helps them understand your issues. I have already recommended them to my friends and highly recommend ESRC to someone looking for a quality Physical Therapist.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Clare! We love working with you and your hard work is an inspiration! We value the connections we make with our patients and truly appreciate your recommendations to your friends and family.
Fantastic experience: Earle Olson is an outstanding massage therapist. He is extremely knowledgeable and very dedicated to his service. I have been visiting the Eastside Sports since 2019 and has been very excited to go back to receive his service at this office. He performs all sorts of massage depending the needs from sports type massage/ to swedish /to deep tissues and combines these as necessary ...again depending the needs and prescription of the client/s. Through variety of his massage methods throughout the last three months I have been feeling much better and my back has been more stable and the pain has been slowly stabilized. I highly recommend Earle to anyone whom wanted an excellent massage therapist!
Thank you so much Jana!
Fantastic experience: No bull straight forward approach to getting you well and or better. They give honest assessment and then help you to be the best you're willing to work to become. Ouch it hurts so good sometimes
Thank you so much Tim! We love hearing this!
Fantastic experience: Heidi and team are dedicated to the client and tailor services with love for what they do! It shows in the way they treat your business. You’re not just a number here.
Fantastic experience: Michael is fantastic. I’ve seen him for two separate concerns including one that would have required surgery had I not had adequate PT treatment. He is patient and thoughtful and gets the job done really well. Great office too—on time and helpful with scheduling.
Thank you Laurie! Great to hear that you had a wonderful experience.
Fantastic experience: My PTA Andrea is great. Felt “free” after every session. The exercises that she gave me was very helpful. Putting frozen shoulder behind very soon !
Thank you so much Milano! Happy to hear that you're feeling better.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Eastside Sports Rehab has been nothing but excellent. From my initial call to self-refer where I set up my first 6 appointments right to the actual appointments, the process has been efficient and I've felt very welcomed. From my initial consultation appointment onward with Michael, he explains the reason behind everything we are doing in a kind yet clear way. He is also a joy to talk to at each appointment. I look forward to my sessions with Michael; I really enjoy his curiosity and conversation about all aspects of life. I guess I should also mention that my pain and stiffness, for which I'm being seen, has decreased significantly since starting PT. I am very impressed with my experience at ESRC. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Mike Yamashita and the team at ESRC are fantastic. Highly recommend. Everyone from the front desk staff to the PTs are very helpful. I was evaluated for foot pain, and the custom orthotics I was given were unbelievable. No more pain even with hours of standing and many miles walked. When I needed replacements, Mike Yamashita and his team even helped me order new ones via the mail.
Fantastic experience: Lisa Van Loben Sels and her gang are the best in the business. I've always said Lisa has hands of gold. I have RA and she is always there to get me back on track with my body. Eastside Sports Rehab is a clean and cheerful place, the vibe is warm and inviting.
Fantastic experience: I went there to be evaluated for occasional knee pain following a long hike or a rowing for over a couple of hours. Michael Yamashita, the PT there, had been recommended to me as someone with deep understanding of human lower limb bio-mechanics, physiology, and techniques for rehabilitation. It is rare that someone who is 'highly recommended' exceeds expectations. Michael did. He was extraordinarily knowledgeable and had great insights into what causes problems and how they can be corrected / mitigated. Before you show up at an orthopedic surgeons offices for some knee, ankle, hip, foot trouble make your way to Eastside Sports Rehab. I don't know what the other PTs there are like but if they're anything like Michael, you'll be glad you did.
Thank you for this wonderful review and endorsement, Khaja! We're so happy to hear that you had such a great experience.
Fantastic experience: We had an outstanding experience at Eastside Sports Rehab clinic. Michael was very knowledgeable about my daughter’s ankle and leg injury and was so kind and patient while taking the time to explain everything in terms we could understand. I highly recommend Eastside Sports Rehab clinic if you are looking for PTs who are truly patient centric!
We appreciate your kind feedback of Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Please do not hesitate to visit us again soon! Have a great day and thanks again.
Fantastic experience: I walked into Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic with a very diminished sense of hope and walked out - after my very 1st session - with a renewed sense of hope and ongoing health. The front office staff, the therapists, all wonderfully committed to improving the lives of their clients.
Thank you Irene! We love hearing this!
Fantastic experience: Michael Yamashita treated me twice in the last year for different issues, back and knee. Due to COVID restrictions, he helped me with my back pain via phone consultation. He asked detailed questions, eliminating some possibilities and narrowing in on how to treat the pain. More recently I injured my knee trying a new foot stance weight lifting at the gym. Michael took a look at my feet, my stance in different positions, and my gait and gave me the embryonic and early childhood history of foot development (!!!) and told me the stance I was trying out would never be safe for my knees. He taught me how to tape my knee so that I could continue to exercise safely while my knee strain healed. His knowledge of body mechanics is impressive. For me, I only needed simple tweaks to my posture and awareness of my natural limitations to be able to alleviate pain and continue doing to exercise I most enjoy. I appreciate that there were no unnecessary visits scheduled and I was able to heal with the information I was sent home with. I also appreciate how Eastside Sports Rehab adheres to recommendations for COVID safety wearing masks and keeping equipment clean for their clients.
Thank you for the wonderful review, Fiona! We're so happy that you're feeling better. This is why we do what we do. All the best!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and helpful staff!
That is so amazing to hear, Megha! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with our team at Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic. It's great to know that we continue to provide our patients with everything they need. Have a great day!
Positive experience: Great therapist but difficult to get an appointment
Thank you A M. We have recognized that it might be tough to schedule so we are excited to announce that we have added a couple practitioners to help out. We are hopeful that this will allow for easier scheduling.
Fantastic experience: Lisa DeVlieg is an awesome physical therapist!
Thank you Ben! We think Lisa is pretty awesome too!
Fantastic experience: Great therapists! Wonderful people!
Thank you so much Emily!
Fantastic experience: Kaitlin is the best therapist.
Thank you so much, Marina!
Fantastic experience: great staff with great results the best thx!!!!
Thank you David!
Fantastic experience: Mike Yamashita and the team at ESRC are fantastic. Highly recommend. Everyone from the front desk staff to the PTs are very helpful. I was evaluated for foot pain, and the custom orthotics I was given were unbelievable. No more pain even with hours of standing and many miles walked. When I needed replacements, Mike Yamashita and his team even helped me order new ones via the mail.
Thank you so much for your review of Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic! We truly appreciate the feedback and hope to hear from you again. We're also so happy to hear that you're feeling better.
Positive experience: Medically skilled, socially uncomfortable. The physical therapist I saw here was able to help me manage my pain and begin my recovery. She also made a point of wearing "thin blue line", "blue lives matter"-style face masks during all our visits. So if you have an emergency and you need to go to the closest physical therapist short-term, this place will suit your needs. But if you want to feel safe and like your life is valued, there are other clinics that don't make a point of wearing their prejudices literally on their face.
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at Eastside Sports Rehab. Lisa Van Loben Sels is so kind and super knowledgeable on how to treat me and I always feel like a new man after every visit. The front desk receptionists are also so personable and treat me like a friend rather than just a patient. I love coming into this clinic and highly recommend it for anyone that needs help recovering from an injury.
Thank you so much for the awesome review, Calvin! We love working with you!
Negative experience: I've been a patient at Eastside Sports more than once due to different injuries over the years. I have some good experiences and bad. Working with Michael was great and he got me into a good place physically for a trip I was taking after an injury from playing soccer. Most recently I was working a newer therapist and the overall experience was not very professional. I won't be coming back to Eastside Sports, and encourage anyone getting these types of services done anywhere to be critical about the care professionals they are working with and their experience, because these appointments are not cheap and your body is obviously important to you.
So sorry this is how you felt about your experience, David. As you can attest, our patients are accustomed to a high level of care so we take great pride in hiring well educated, capable and professional providers. As a consequence, our younger hires are particularly scrutinized to assure a level of professionalism, knowledge, clinical reasoning and ability to effectively execute treatment plans that belies their relatively recent entry into the field. Our feedback on our younger therapists has been uniformly complementary from both patients and physicians alike. That’s why your impression is very much a surprise to us. In any case, we are very sorry that your recent experience did not meet your expectations and wish you well, David.
Fantastic experience: We have visited the clinic a couple of times in the past. We always received immediate and excellent help. The front desk staff is the most friendly staff we have ever met in the health services industry. They always try to get you an appointment that works with your schedule ASAP. We were seeing Michael Y., his work is always punctual, with deep knowledge of the problem. We really appreciated his explanation of the issue and its treatment I can not forget to mention that he is always friendly, smiling, and positive. Getting practical advice on how to avoid the injury was really helpful and ended up working in the long run. The Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic is the one and only place we would go to again.
Whether we are meeting new faces or longtime friends, each person that walks through our doors is extremely important to us. We work hard to build the relationships we have with our patients so it is wonderful to hear your feedback. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review.
Fantastic experience: Gregory was awesome at fixing the pain in my elbow and also soreness in the achelies tendon.
Thank you so much Ashish!
Fantastic experience: Chris Bocker has helped me recover from various injuries, restoring my quality of life. Most recently I thought I had pinched a nerve, but he quickly diagnosed it as a neurological issue and referred me to my neurologist. He was spot on, as it turns out I'd suffered a stroke. Chris is highly skilled, wonderfully personable, and a delight to work with. I can't recommend him highly enough!
Carla, thank you so much for that wonderful review. We're so happy you were in great hands with Chris.
Fantastic experience: They have the best physical therapists on Seattle's eastside (Bellevue, Issaquah, Sammamish, Redmond). They help me recover from a replaced ACL, after a ski accident, in time for the following ski season. They have done awesome work for the entire family, from all of our different activity injuries.
Thank you for the wonderful review. We have loved working with you and your family.
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Lisa for VA ordered physical therapy. Can't say enough how good she is. I've been around enough to recognize a competent professional and she's that and more. As a side note, she'll figure out your pain points very quickly. That's a good thing. Her methods rapidly improves those areas.
Thank you for fantastic review! It's our privilege to help.
Fantastic experience: I came to Eastside Sports Rehabilitation Clinics in Bellevue after having constant shoulder injury for many years. This place is outstanding and the therapists are terrific. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I particularly want to call out Earle Olson who has been working on my issues and he is the BEST massage therapist! All my should pain improved. He is very skilled, very professional, very friendly, helpful, understanding and really love what they do. I trust them very much and I am extremely happy with the outcome, the massages help me sustain and maintain myself even during the busiest of weeks. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to get the maximum benefit out of a massage. It is therapeutic, relaxing and most importantly HEAVENLY
Thank you so much Bahar!
Fantastic experience: Lisa and her team are amazing! So glad I chose Eastside Sports for my physical therapy.
Thanks Samantha! We think you're pretty amazing too.
Fantastic experience: I can't rate this place highly enough. I was a patient in 2004-2005 and they eliminated some pretty stubborn hip pain that resulted from an overuse injury. I came back in 2020 it was the same vibe and some of the same group of super talented therapists. They all seem to share that 'intuitive' understanding of what's going on w a patient's body mechanics. They take plenty of time to diagnose and then jump right in to rebalancing your body with a combination of strengthening and stretching where needed to eliminate the source causes of the injury. True pros. Super nice people.
Fantastic experience: I have struggled for years with foot and knee alignment issues, but once I found Mike Yamashita at Eastlake my problems were resolved. He evaluated my problems and crafted fabulous new orthotics My knee pain is gone and my SynVisc One injections are lasting twice as long as before. Mike gets a Gold Star in my book!
Thank you Lindsay! We're so happy you're feeling better.
Fantastic experience: There are many Physical Therapy (PT) clinics out there and I have been to many of them on the Eastside and Seattle. This is the first PT clinic where you actually work your therapist for the duration of your appointment. I am in awe that through out my many sessions there I have had the undivided attention of the therapist every time. Not a single time have I gotten an intern or an assistant. Dr. Pilkington is my therapist and I highly recommend him for your rehab needs, you will not regret it.
Thank you for the fantastic review, Roberto! We love hearing about our patient's great experiences.
Fantastic experience: The team at Eastside Sports Rehab is outstanding. They are incredibly knowledgeable and take the time to get to know you. They are "hands on" PT that leverage multimodal tactics to deliver results.
Thanks Jeff for the wonderful review of Eastside Sports Rehab Clinic. We appreciate you taking time to leave your feedback and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Excellent care by Dr. Lisa van Loben Sels-she has fixed my broken body many times. I feel very well cared for and safe. I would refer any friend or family to her. Office follows all COVID safety protocals.
Thank you so much Erica! We have truly enjoyed working with you!
Fantastic experience: First visit. Jamie knows his stuff. I look forward to learning, working hard and figuring this out!
Thank you Lisa!
Negative experience: Billing department treated us exceptionally rude. Bottom line is they didn't supply insurance with the final requested information.
Negative experience: Patients beware! This review is strictly on the billing practices of this clinic. When you are a new patient and ask what the cost will be for the service, they respond that there is no co-pay and that they (the clinic) "will work it out with the insurance provider." This will continue after multiple visits until you get a bill in the mail from the clinic for hundreds of dollars that equates to a significant portion of the cost. When you call billing to say that you were not informed of the cost beforehand, the billing department says "ultimately, it is the patient's responsibility to speak to their insurance provider about their coverage and what will or will not be paid." End result, the clinic will happily schedule multiple visits while they "look into" the cost, bill you for a significant sum, and then say it was your fault for not determining those costs yourself. Very poor process, not to mention customer service. Patients beware! Demand to know what the cost is beforehand. Do not accept the "we will work it out" answer. They must know full well that patients will be charged and should tell them so.
First, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re so sorry that this was your experience. Your comments have emphasized the importance of making sure that all our front office staff are clear on our policies and procedures regarding co-pays and verification of benefits.Our policy is to collect co-pays at the time of service and we will verify benefits as a courtesy, but payment based on coverage is ultimately the patient’s responsibility and is based on your specific plan. While the new patient paperwork that we have patients review and sign does include our financial policies, we certainly understand your frustration. Given the receipt of a bill totaling nearly the entire cost of the visits you attended, the likelihood is that your deductible had not yet been satisfied. Unfortunately, we are not made aware of any deductible that has been satisfied prior to the start of treatment in our facility. So, it is very difficult to give an accurate amount of what your actual out of pocket costs will be.This experience has shed light on how we want to communicate with patients who are requesting an exact amount that they will be responsible for. We can give an average per visit cost, but we have not and most likely will not be able to know that information ahead of time, as services rendered each visit may vary, and again, patient responsibility will vary depending on your plan and the amount of deductible satisfied to date. This is not an attempt to mislead our patients and your situation serves as a reminder for us to make sure that we emphasize this in a more concise manner going forward. It has always been our goal to be transparent and explain things in a thorough manner to avoid the very frustrations that you have expressed.Again, we are grateful for your feedback and will keep your comments in mind as we continue to reinforce the importance of clear communication with our current staff. In the end, we hope that you can accept our apology for what sounds like a very frustrating experience.

Thank you Anne! As far as the sense of humor goes, it takes one to know one. :)

Fantastic experience: ESRC differs from other clinics, in that you get a full hour with the PT. They don't pawn you off to some assistant to do the basics. They sit with you, walk through your challenges, suggest new ideas to try things, and more. It's a full end-to-end type clinic, with the focus on care and recovery. The staff, both front office and PT, is consistent, kind and was a breath of experience. If you need a custom bike fit, or orthotics, or are recovering from back surgery - or are a young student athlete - they've got you covered.
