Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington provides a range of physical therapy, hand care and rehabilitation services for clients in Wilmington, NC area.

Mike genuinely cared about my improvement. He was flexible and did not rush me. He always answered my questions to my satisfaction and provided teaching to enable me to do home therapy.

I had been told my only option was back surgery but thankfully I found Physical Therapy Services. They taught me how my posture was resulting in pain down my leg. I could tell a difference after only a few visits. I highly recommend them!

I am pleased with the care given to me at Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington. The staff is excellent as well as courteous and friendly. I never had to wait longer than 10 minutes for my appointment. It feels great to be able to walk without that pain in my foot!

I want to thank all the staff or a great experience. I started care in a great deal of pain. Everyone was very kind, professional and accommodating. Marie is a superstar! She literally changed my life. You guys have a fantastic staff. Keep up the good work. Thanks again.

Russ did an excellent job directing my rehab following rotator cuff repair. My ROM and strength feel better than it has in years. I am back playing tennis without restriction.

Jane was excellent. I had a long recovery following surgery on my hand after it was cut while at work. I found her to be knowledgeable, reassuring, patient and thorough throughout my course of therapy. She customized a splint for me and provided several other gadgets that initially improved the ease of daily activities but ultimately helped me return to work. I am forever grateful.

I walked in feeling dizzy, miserable and nauseated from an episode of vertigo. Amy was able to provide treatment on the first visit that remedied my symptoms. I truly appreciate her expertise. She even called a few days later to check up on me. This is not something I had experienced from other health care providers. Thanks Amy!

I have been to several physical therapy clinics. If I need to return I will not go anywhere else. I can function with minimal pain and I have found my home program to be a great benefit. I am thrilled with my improvements. I have resumed walking the loop several days a week without hip pain. This is something I truly enjoy and prior to intervention, I had my doubts. Many thanks.

I have seen Alan for several ailments over the years. He has treated me for shoulder and back pain as well as rehab following my knee replacement. I had no idea what rehab entailed following knee replacement. He pushed me just the right amount but also respected my pain and concerns. Thankfully, I am back gardening and playing with my grandkids. I appreciate his knowledge and his willingness to take the time necessary to explain the source of my pain and lay out a vision how PT will help.

Since 1983, Physical Therapy Services has been providing rehabilitative services for the people of Wilmington and Southeastern North Carolina. We look forward to earning your trust in becoming your preferred rehabilitation solution.

Fantastic experience: Andy is extremely knowledgeable. He truly cares for his patients and seems to always be learning to better treat patients. Top notch experience every time he treats me.

Trey Hunt 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had very bad knee pain. Russ evaluated me and put a treatment plan in place. I did not think the pain would subside, but Russ assured me we’d get there. After rehabbing with him my knees are doing great, so nice not to be in pain. Russ is a great guy extremely knowledgeable, pleasant to work and helps you to achieve your goals. Russ is “the man”

James C Smith 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Started working with PT Services of Wilmington two weeks after total knee replacement. Andy is a great therapist. He's knowledgeable, kind and caring. Andy pushed me to gain range of motion, strength and mobility. And my surgeon has noted that the progress of my rehab has been materially ahead of expectations for this procedure. You couldn't make me go anywhere else.

Patricia Bradford 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: The staff is very professional. I’ve been there twice for different reasons and made remarkable progress on both occasions. They’re very attentive and they listen to you and develop a program to fit your needs. I would highly recommend physical therapy services.

Zac Kerr 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I saw Johnathan (hope I’m spelling it right) a little over two weeks ago, as I’m cycling across the country and in preparation encountered some fairly intense knee pain. My visit with him was thorough and I felt a lot more informed about what I was dealing with. I got into the first day of my trip a couple days ago and encountered the same pain & asked to speak with him with some new questions. He just called me back and had a whole conversation with me. Feel super supported by this PT office and really appreciate the time from Johnathan.

Ben Purcell 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very professional and accommodating staff would highly recommend to family and friends in need of physical therapy. Russ Simmerman along with his team have helped immensely in strengthening and restoring range of motion / mobility to my shoulder. Thank you Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington!

Janet Anderson 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington. Jane Burchfield is top notch and very caring and concerned about all her clients. Her hand therapy is unequivocally the best. Russ Simmerman was able to bring my frozen shoulder back to normal and was very knowledgeable and friendly. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly my shoulder responded to his treatment. The staff is very kind and accommodating to your every need. I came from Leland to Wilmington just for them and they were well worth it. My surgeon recommended them and I am so glad he did. Do yourself a favor if you need PT give them a try

Patty Gniadek 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Andy to all my coworkers, friends and family in need of a super PT! It amazes me how he can figure out the root of the PT issue before you even tell him where the pain is and educate you on it! We are fortunate to have him as our LOB PT and his office in Porters Neck is really convenient and nice as well.

Genna Brooks 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: The staff at PT Services of Wilmington are all very friendly and knowledgeable, and I really appreciate that they're always on time. Russ is a very intuitive physical therapist-- especially when it comes to dry needling (which is very hard to find!). He takes everything into account and really listens to your concerns when coming up with a treatment plan. They reinforce past exercises each time, as well as add new ones so you feel like you're getting the most out of each visit. I highly recommend this place.

Julia Sanderson 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Andy is hands down an amazing therapist. He worked hard to make sure that the healing process of my knee was easy. I didn’t expect to see results as soon as I did. He is a great motivator as well! I really liked at PT Services, I could schedule my appointments really early or late afternoon. They are flexible!!! 10/10 would recommend.

Paula Clemmons 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Jane Burchfield is absolutely the one you want to see if you have any hand issues. I was amazed at how fast she evaluated my hand and initiated a clear and concise treatment regimen. The improvement in mobility and hand function was almost immediate. All of the staff at Physical Therapy Services do a great job.

Theresa Kramer 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Loved my visit with Jane, OT. Very knowledgeable with hand therapy to help me recover from trigger thumb. So grateful for her expertise!

Nicole Tunney 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had Russ as my therapist when my Jaw was in extreme pain due to TMJ. There are very few therapists who treat this condition in the Wilmington area. I thought I was going to have to suffer for months but in a few short weeks, I was able to eat laugh talk and live life the way I was used to before this happened. I sincerely cannot Thank Russ and his staff for being kind and compassionate when I wasn't feeling well. His innovative procedures really helped me so much. Thank you so much !!!!! I highly recommend PT services and Russ if you need TMJ treatment.

Fantastic experience: Grace is amazing! Friendly office staff.

Stephen Wilkinson 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: My wife went here years ago for a hand injury and had excellent results, so when I injured my foot 6 months ago I finally went also. After multiple treatments from a foot doctor with no improvement, Grace at Physical therapy Services figured out my real problem and in 4 weeks cured me. I told her she is a genius and asked if she would be my new doctor! Now I can walk again pain free! Thank you Grace and PTS!

V Miles 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had been suffering from several foot conditions and had trouble walking due to severe pain. I was worried that my life would be severely negatively impacted by these conditions permanently. I began physical therapy with Andy at the Porters Neck location. He listened to my symptoms, incorporated associated medical issues, and created a treatment plan to alleviate my pain. As treatment progressed, he adjusted the plan to adapt to the changes and because of my treatment with Andy, I am now pain free!! I am so thankful and I highly recommend his services.

Lois Fleming 7 years ago

Diana Fisher 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am a Marylander senior with painful deconditioning complications and cannot disrupt my therapy while visiting Wilmington. It is very fortunate that I selected this practice, for they are exceptional. Every person there is warm and personable and highly efficient; each therapist produces amazing results. My condition has improved tremendously and I feel more hopeful than ever now that I am in their care. The level of expertise has even caused me to change the therapy practice I used back home. When I visit Wilmington I receive treatment at PHYSICAL THERAPY SERVICES OF WILMINGTON! And how I love the address 1776 So. 17th Street!

Xiquena De Vega 7 years ago

Debora Gibson 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington is an outstanding clinic dedicated to restoring your health in a manner to give you the best quality of life possible. The staff are dedicated, professional, and kind. Andy, Heather, and Beth are dynamic individuals and have exceeded my expectations. I fully endorse this clinic and highly recommend them for your care. I personally thank my medical team at this clinic for the quality of care you have given me. Warmest regards!

Karyn Anne Petracca 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recommend PT Services of Wilmington highly and unequivocally. I am a long-term PT patient at this practice (going on 18 mos. now). I wish I could take credit for choosing them intentionally, but I simply lucked into this perfect situation. From the start, the administrative/reception staff has been generous, understanding, and personable. The clinic atmosphere is similarly friendly and comfortable, and Dr. Andy Alaimo's combination of knowledge & skill, dedication & innovativeness, make him a rare and invaluable asset. I have a chronic illness and severe disabilities, and with his help I have been able to reach and maintain significant functional milestones that contribute to my quality of life. I could go on, but for fear that this review might be too effective and other people might start vying for my favored 2 pm slot.

Roxanna Goudarzi 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Extremely positive experiences working with the staff and PT specialists at Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington, first for an ankle surgery recovery in 2011 and then for a patella/knee surgery in 2018. Everyone there, from the front desk to the PT's, seem to love what they do, and that makes it a positive experience for everyone. I always felt at ease and knew that I was in good hands, and I appreciate all the helpful information along the way regarding the exercises, treatment, etc. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs physical therapy services.

Magen Gallagher 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Russ and his staff on 17th street have taken wonderful care of me. In just three weeks they were able to help my TMD tremendously. I went from 35mm max opening WITH pain to 35mm opening without pain. They are sensitive to my case while being informative and detailed. The visits aren’t long and if they go over the time they always make sure it is okay to continue. Scheduling is very flexible and so is payment plans/options. A month ago I could barely speak or eat without pain but since Dr. Russ started working on me I have had a better quality of life. He has even done dry needling on me which I recommend if he suggests it. At just 23years old I felt discouraged until I meet Dr. Russ. In this short time together has shown me how to take control over my life again. What a blessing him and his staff have been to me.

Chris Delaney 7 years ago

stephanie williams 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Andy at Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington has helped me so much! I started seeing him after a horseback riding accident. He is thorough and knowledgeable in his treatment. I also broke my foot woke still seeing him for treatment. He was able to still help me with my hip and give me exercises that I could do with a broken foot. I was just released on Thursday. And, while I'll miss the friendly office, I'm feeling great and moving freely! I highly recommend him to anyone needing help!

Nancy Jones 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington is THE place to go for getting a much-improved quality of life. While recovering from osteoarthritis and plantar fasciitis pain this year, it was my experience to work with their expert, professional staff as they effectively provided all the tools and encouragement required to set me on a path to recovery. Thanks to all including their wonderful office support staff!

Stevie Cruse 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Physical Therapy Services of Wilmington is the best place in town to go for physical therapy! I have been there a number of times for my Cerebral Palsy needs as well as other unrelated issues to my Cerebral Palsy. My physical therapist Russ is excellent! He has always been able to help me work through to a solution to each issue I have come to see them. Also, Andy has used SCM technique which has helped me a great deal with my pain in my neck. The techniques that Russ and Andy have used in my treatment plan help gradually eliminate my pain. I have a very positive outlook with the continued course of treatment plan of becoming pain free before I "graduate." The whole staff has great communication and teamwork concerning patient's individualized needs. The front desk staff is very welcoming and courteous. I can't say enough wonderful things about this excellent team! Thank you PT Services of Wilmington! Keep up the great work!

Fantastic experience: I've had multiple great experiences at PT services of Wilmington. I was a patient for a shoulder dislocation once before and once after surgery. Russ Simmerman was my therapist and did a great job both times. I also completed an internship here under Andy Alaimo which was a fantastic experience. I recommend PT Services to anyone in the Wilmington area.
