Fantastic experience: Michael and Laren were wonderful they treated me well I am totally happy
Fantastic experience: I like talking with Dr Federline because he is very patient and explain all the moves you need to make in your therapy.
Fantastic experience: I had one of the best and loving experiences here, when I finish my first session it was very overwhelming to process because of my sports injury pain but once I kept coming and learning new techniques it helped me ALOT ! Michael was my favorite out the bunch, he motivated me, encouraged me and was fun to have as an instructor. If I had to recommend this physical therapy I definitely would because within 6 weeks I gain my regular walking instead of limping from a meniscus tear & im so thankful for all the help they gave me
Fantastic experience: Lauren and Michael worked as a great team to help me get my shoulder better than baseline. I went to them after a shoulder decompression to try and get my strength and mobility back so I could go back to work. Working with them I was able to get my shoulder back to how it was prior to my injury! They were so patient and kind and knew just when to push me to help me recover.
Fantastic experience: I went to physical therapy because I was having extreme back pain. Honestly I did not thunk it was going to help me but I was wrong. Michael my Pt introduced me to dry needling and it was the best thing for my pain. I was a little nervous because I don't like needles but he was the best. I did not feel the needles but there is some discomfort but is to be expected. I am so happy with my results. Back pain relief without surgery.
Fantastic experience: Michael is the best. Great skills and he has a professional bedside manner. In fact, all of the staff from the front desk thru the therapy area are wonderful. They make a painful situation easier and less painful. They make me smile!

Fantastic experience: Mike and Lauren were excellent in getting my strained ankle back to normal. I came in with pain in my ankle and foot. From September 18 until November 1st Mike and Lauren did exercises and Game Ready treatments to get me walking without my cane. I also would like to thank Matthew and Megan for their assistance with the exercises. No words can express my gratitude for the physical therapy staff and the front desk staff for all of the care they gave me. I now can walk without my cane. I highly recommend the Physical Therapy at Good Samaritan Hospital.

The out patient exercises, coupled with suggested home exercises has really helped me in regaining much of my strength back.

Fantastic experience: I have actually been a client/patient at Good Samaritan's PT/OT many times, (too many times to count), since 1997, when I came after foot reconstruction that left me unable to stand or walk. Each experience, whether OT or PT, has been both pleasurable and successful, and I have always completed my therapy with high praise for the therapists and the treatment. One feels personally cared for by skilled and caring professionals, with no exceptions. And, in spite of some inevitable pain, and continuous hard work, the experience seems to be enjoyed by everyone involved -- both patients and therapists. We have fun here!

I am very determined with getting better and my therapist pushed me with my exercises even though at times I hurt. I am better and stronger now. I've joined Water therapy and the gym at the league 3 to 4 times a week to continue my therapy in life. Thank you Michael and Wumni you guys are "the Best" You guys will always be in my heart ❤️

Fantastic experience: I’m so thankful for the physical therapist at Good Samaritan Hospital. I came in for therapy for a hip replacement at the age of 40. Michael one of my therapist reassured me that I would be just fine as long as I did the work needed in order to recover properly. Thanks to Michael and Wunmi my primary therapist, I can say that 8 weeks later I’m walking and without a cane!!!!
Fantastic experience: The physical therapy care I received at MedStar Physical Therapy at Good Samaritan Hospital, is exceptional. I was very impressed with the patience and skills of my physical therapist, Michael Ariete. I told Michael I had bee in pain for 7 months. Evaluating me, Michael gave me my first treatment and I finally felt relief from my back pain. I look forward to my future treatments because I know it will only get better. Michael is very knowledgeable and definitely knows what he’s doing and how to heal a patient. He’s the Best!
Fantastic experience: My PT experience with Meghan was a very positive experience and instrumental in my rehabilitation after being in the hospital for 2.5 months. She individualized my program, made it challenging and provided encouragement along the way. I'd highly recommend her and this facility.
Fantastic experience: The level of care that I receive from the physical therapy staff at Good Samaritan is excellent. They care for their patients and they work together as a Team. The staff that work with me listen to my suggestion. Just last week I was a little tired, my therapist was really concerned about my well being. Before starting she asked me several questions, checked my blood pressure. This showed me that she cares about the patience she works with. After making sure that I was okay, we proceeded with my therapy session.
Fantastic experience: Lauren was a great physical therapist she noticed my muscle was so stiff and she introduced me to Michael who performed the dry needle therapy on my 3 times, after which I became myself again, no pain , able to do my therapy and everyday chores without pain. Thank you Lauren and Michael, wish you a prosperous future. The facility itself was so clean and staff were so nice and professional at the same time so affectionate . I recommend this facility to everyone who needs their services.
Fantastic experience: Michael & Megan we're excellent. The exercises helped me a tremendously. Michael also introduced my to dry needling. I was very skeptical at 1st but I decided give it a try and the outcome was unbelievable. I only had one session. I was sore for a day after that but neck & spine felt so much better the next day. I would highly recommend MedStar Physical Therapy. They do an awesome job.
Fantastic experience: I had the best therapists ever. Michael and Lauren were absolutely professional and very knowledgeable of the exercises and therapy that was administered. Thank you Michael for recommending the dry needling process. They both were absolutely wonderful. I feel 100 percent better. Thanks to them both I can say that I am definitely on the road to recovery. GREAT TEAM OF THERAPIST!
Fantastic experience: I just spent several weeks doing physical therapy at MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital in Baltimore. I had had two falls and I needed to improve my balance and strengthen my legs. It was my good luck to have Judith Bopp as my therapist. She was patient and skillful plus being a good motivator because I am an old woman and don;t like exercise. Her upbeat personality inspired me!
Fantastic experience: The staff are very professional and helpful. They work as a team to meet the goals of every patient. I highly recommend Michael A. for physical therapy! His knowledge, creativity, and motivation made my post-op PT experience engaging, challenging & successful. I’m ever so grateful for the encouragement & support from Zachary, while he assisted Michael with my treatment plan. You guys ROCK!!!
Fantastic experience: This has been a great experience! My left shoulder was so painful that it was hard to do ADL (activities of daily living). This was very important to me since my left shoulder is my dominant side. I must admit that a shoulder replacement is quite different from a knee replacement. I chose to come to rehab at Good Samaritan Hosp because of my previous experiences with all of the therapist. I especially want to thank Michael Ariete for being so thoughtful, patient and creative with developing my exercise routines. I would be remiss not to mention Cathy and Wumni. They worked me to exhaustion so that I could reach my maximum amount of improvement, which I did! I am so grateful for everyone involved in my recovery. Zack and Onyi are the perfect complement to the team. I want to THANK EVERYONE for their support, knowledge and professionalism! MY GOAL IS TO DO MY "ONE-ARM PUSH-UP! Love to all and Happy Holidays!
