Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy - Laurel

Fantastic experience: My experience at Chesapeake Bay APT has been very beneficial. The entire staff, including the Receptionists and Technicians, are professional, courteous and very friendly. They work together to ensure that patients are well taken care of before, during and after treatment. All of the therapists to work hard in order to get patients back to complete physical mobility. My individual treatment plan includes a combination of exercises, massage, heat, and traction. I am so glad I chose Chesapeake Bay APT. I would gladly refer my family and friends if they ever need PT services!

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but good things to say about Chesapeake. The staff was friendly and understood my physical therapy needs. They created a program that I can do at home and also provided education. I also learned about dry needling which helped me with an issue I was dealing with for several years. Definitely recommend them.

Fantastic experience: Great office with a friendly staff. Their physical therapists are thorough with all your needs. All in all I've had a great experience coming to this location these past few months. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Fantastic experience: This is the best physical therapy that I have experienced in 3 years since my injuries from the therapist to the front office Everyone especially Meghan, Haily and Ruth are very sympathetic, friendly, accommodating and kind. I tha nk them so much. Kevin Wyandt

Fantastic experience: My time at Chesapeake PT in laurel has been great and helped me through the worst of my pain. My therapist, Joyce Riveral, was always kind and listened to my many questions patiently, I couldn't have asked for a better place to recover from my most recent set back with my knees.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding physical therapy was given to me here. The importance of a regular exercise program at home was stressed with follow up instructions given. My pain is now gone with my sincere appreciation.

Fantastic experience: I. Can't say enough about the therapists at this location! 2018 had back surgery, had to learn to walk all over again. I was in therapy 2 months before surgery and 8 months after. They started me in the pool and slowly graduated me to land. 2020 I had total knee replacement. Again, they worked their magic. This year I injured my replacement knee and again CBAY put me back together. I highly recommend this facility ❤️

Fantastic experience: CBAPT exceeded my expectations. I was able to split my therapy to the pool and to the exercise room. Joyce Riveral was very professional, knowledgeable and encouraging. The staff was friendly and professional and the facility was very well kept. I’d recommend this facility to anyone. Great job Joyce. Thanks again.

Fantastic experience: My husband went to Chesapeake Aquatic Physical Therapy in Laurel a few years back and was so pleased he wanted to use them again recently. Everyone there is so friendly helpful and knowledgeable and he is very happy with his results! Highly recommend them !

Fantastic experience: I could hardly move my arm due to severe pain and I was also sleep deprived when I came to your center. Joyce and other staff member took time to work with me so that I could get better. Yes, I complained. Joyce listened and kept encouraging me that my condition would improve. I thank you for your patience and for working with me. My condition has improved about 75%. Chesapeake Bay PT is the best physical therapists team anyone could have. I’m so grateful for all the staff there. Monisola

Fantastic experience: Chesapeake Bay Aquatic and Physical Therapy - Laurel is the best PT place I've been to for help. They have helped me prepare for, and recover from, surgeries and other events. And, where appropriate, I love the availability of aquatic PT to aid in this recovery, as I did following my lumbar spine surgery in March. Land PT helped my right wrist, broken this past winter, regain strength and mobility, that is much needed in preparation for upcoming left wrist surgery. If you need PT, CBAY is THE place to go.

Fantastic experience: Decided on pre-hab prior to surgery. From the receptionist desk to Joyce assesing and crafting PT exercises to help strengthen my core to assist with recovery after surgery, this team is top notch. Although there are days I find PT challenging, I know Joyce and the team at CBA & PT have my best interest at heart. Will definitely be back for post surgery PT. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: The positive reviews for Chesapeake are on point! I opted to try CBAPT based on the glowing reviews, despite needing to travel almost 30 minutes, passing countless other PT practices on the way. I have been receiving treatment here for about a month now, and my experience has been nothing short of phenomenal! Dr. Carmelo, DPT, is not only fun to work with, but is also very thorough, knowledgeable and attentive. From my initial appointment, he has intently listened and considered all the facets of my complex condition. I very much appreciate his facilitation & welcoming open communication between patient and provider—answering all of my questions and requests. It is clear to me that Carmelo tailors my sessions and home exercises to my needs with flexibility. Not to mention, his hands may be magic as he is able to relieve some of my chronic pain immediately. I wasn’t sure what to expect with aquatic PT, but have found the sessions to be very helpful & enjoyable--allowing me personally to tolerate higher intensity exercises without increased pain all the while feeling much more relaxed. In addition, the office staff and PT assistants are all so pleasant, friendly and helpful. I have found the office gym to be organized and exceptionally clean. My experience has been such a positive contrast to months working with a previous therapy center where they were not very hands on, not nearly as flexible with appointments or considerate of my needs and I rarely saw the PT, rather, worked with the assistant 99% of the time. I am so very thankful I chose Chesapeake and for the progress they have helped me achieve. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a positive experience that will get you to the healing results you need.

Fantastic experience: I have been in several rehab facility's and this one is extremely comfortable. The therapist (Joyce) discussed my particular issues and then she went over my plan of action. The admin staff design your appointment's and any other issues you may have at any time.

Fantastic experience: I came to Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy after a workplace incident almost tore my hamstring and some of the surrounding muscles. When I first came in I was fresh off of using crutches and could barely walk more than a few blocks before feeling pain in my leg. The office is welcoming and cozy, allowing for a comfortable personal experience. After two weeks I saw great improvement in my strength and flexibility. At the end of one month of therapy, two sessions a week, I could run for 10min and had about 85% of my strength back in my leg. They also gave me a stretching regimen to help get my leg back to it's full ability even after my therapy sessions were complete. I would definitely recommend them for your therapy needs!

Fantastic experience: Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy in Laurel far exceeded my expectations. Dr. Meghan provides personalized therapy, not the one size fits all PT, that I have received in the past. The office clean and the staff are professional and knowledgeable. This location will work with you so you progress and reach your therapy goals!!! Best PT in Laurel, MD.

Fantastic experience: I was referred here for some back/shoulder pain and was skeptical due to having some poor experience with a previous PT, but I am so glad I went. This place is a gem (though hard to find). The entire staff is so wonderful and welcoming it made me almost not want to be discharged. Lauren/Carmelo are fantastic and I put them as the gold standard for what a PT should be. When my body starts to breakdown I will most definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: I have to say that I have been truly impressed with the treatment I have received at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy. There is a level of professionalism and empathy that is superior. It also doesn't hurt that everyone is easy to talk to and has a good sense of humor. Generally when people seek physical therapy treatment, they are dealing with some pretty serious pain issues. I think it speaks volumes that you can have rigorous therapy treatments but still leave with a smile on your face. I have had terrific interactions with everyone from Brittany at the front desk to Lauren, Camilo, and Miranda as my PT doctors - as well as Marcus, Matt, Dallas, and Scott assisting. A tremendous team. I highly recommend them for PT!

Fantastic experience: I lost my back more than a month ago. It's been challenging moving around with the pain in my lower back and left hip. I resumed physical therapy after a year. This is the worst level of pain I have been experiencing after being sick with Covid. In any case, I have been coming here because they have the decompression table. I thought that's all I needed. NO! I quickly learnt that I needed the full physical therapy healing experience. The team here has been working with me to get me back in order. Alvin is meticulous. He checks through every time I do an assessment. He is constantly assessing my pain level. I remember last week I could barely walk. Actually, I could lift my feet of the ground to walk. He really worked with me one-on-one to make sure I was getting relief. Today, I laughed. That's important when you are moving through pain. Here's to not looking for pain Alvin. Progress over perfection! My first two weeks with Meaghan, she took her time because I was that slow patient. I am thankful. Alvin, Meaghan, Calvin, Matt, Chris, Enali, Briteny, Morgan, Haley and Brenee are awesome. Super patient and pleasant.

Fantastic experience: Most people are anxious when first entering a therapy office. My very first impression dispelled any fears. The outer office is more than welcoming and the front desk operator was made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. My therapist immediately came forward and introduced himself, and off we went. He was very friendly, and explained what treatment would be used in helping me recover. Even after the first session, I was feeling more mobility. He was an amazing therapist. Bottom line, you couldn't ask for a more capable group of therapist.

Fantastic experience: The experience that I received at ChesapeakeBay Aquatic was great. Each therapist that worked with me was awesome and treated me with respect and made me feel welcome. They really know how to work the muscle in order for them to loosen and not continue to hurt. This team will be highly recommended. Thank you

Fantastic experience: My daughter started coming here for physical therapy due to left sided weakness and I was intrigued by the thought of aquatic physical therapy but from the consultation my daughter has been happy to come back each week. Dr. Carmelo or “Dr. Marshmallow” as affectionately calls is nothing short of amazing with my 3 year old! He is so patient and kind and I just enjoy watching there sessions!

Fantastic experience: Receiving Chesapeake Aquatic Physical Therapy at the Laurel, MD facilities, was one of the BEST CHOICES I made in my recovery process from Lung Cancer and Open heart quadruple by-pass surgeries. The staff- everyone! - Drs, therapists and support members, were professional, compassionate and friendly. Each one made me feel as if my therapy mattered - EACH seemed to know exactly what I needed - there was a cohesive synergy no matter who provided the treatment or where it was provided (in the water or on land). I accomplished my goals of being fully back to where I was 2 years ago before the surgeries. I’m 76 years young. The stiffness, pain and full range of motion and mobility is back. My feeling is that even my lung capacity is totally restored. The combination of water and land therapies was awesome! I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Carmelo and his staff are great to work with. They designed a program to strengthen my leg and rehabilitate my injury while empowering me to understand how I can improve my leg outside of the sessions. Highly Recommend!

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed my treatment at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy in Laurel. The receptionist was always cordial and ensured the necessary precautions were taken before entering the clinic. My therapist was very thorough, professional, and considerate. My aide was kind and helpful at all times. Overall, my treatment and care there was very warm and caring.

Fantastic experience: I was falling before (a lot of times) and now with Therapy I feel confident that I will not fall again on my face. I have worked with Eric , he is a great therapist and also the entire team. Erica and Kayla are wonderful front desk and people’s person. I highly recommend going to Chesapeake Therapy and you better believe it!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful place! Wonderful physicians! Came for physical therapy on my right leg with a light muscle tear. Pain was extremely unbearable, but after a few sessions they were able to bring down the pain I felt daily. They put together a daily stretch program to help speed up my recovery. They also adjusted to my pain levels and specific muscle areas where pain originated from. I'm looking forward to continuing my sessions and have full confidence that I will be back if not better shape that before!

Fantastic experience: I appreciate the therapists skills and expertise in helping me with my fractured arm bone (humerus) and knee pain. Gayna Lacy PT has wonderful manual techniques and has used needling and laser treatment to assist my healing. Rebecca Clark, PT assistant, leads me in arm and leg exercise in the therapy tank. Rebecca motivated me to continue to move. Kristine Perez-Losarito, Director of the clinic has excellent therapy skills also. Kristine believes in a holistic treatment for the whole body including natural supplements and natural treatments. I love that they have a gym experience for after you improve so you can continue to use the equipment to maintain your progress with supervision. I have not see that at any other PT clinic. As an Occupational Therapist, I recommend you to come here and feel the love and heal your injury. They also work with children which is a plus. I look forward to continuing here after my hip replacement. Debbie

Fantastic experience: This Physical Therapy establishment is the best!! I have gone to them a couple times due to an injury. My latest experience was working with them since Oct 2019 and ending today January 2021. The staff is great and the Therapy works. Unfortunately we got sidelined a few months due to March-June covid restrictions but we started back up with no issues. They take safety precautions seriously and are constantly wiping down in the clinic. The front deck administrator is very cordial and respectful she always greets you with a smile and is positive. Lauren, my therapist, knows her stuff and explains the exercises throughout treatment. She asks frequently if you are okay while doing the therapy. She's not a push over and she does push you, but it's for the good and it works. My shoulder and back are almost 100%. Thanks Chesapeake!! I'll miss you!

Fantastic experience: I arrived at Chesapeake bay aquatics as a result of suffering a month and a half of pain in my neck. I could not sleep and several visits to my primary care physician proves to be less than helpful. I ended up requesting a referral and I selected Chesapeake to handle my pain and physical therapy. Awesome choice that turned out to be! Kristine Perez-Losarito, the Director of Physical Therapy is an exceptional example of what every PT should aspire to be. She is funny, comforting, compassionate, and above all else, she is quite effective. she prescribed a set of exercises and stretches that complemented my therapy sessions. In no time at all, I was sleeping like a baby, restored, and pain-free! Now my wife is heading there too.

Fantastic experience: My therapist is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. She takes her time explaining and gives informative feedback on my progress. Kristine is a great representative of the high quality of therapy; I highly recommend her and her staff for all your physical therapy needs.

Fantastic experience: Christine is truly phenomenal. After a year of not being able to walk and failed PT attempts, when I walked into Chesapeake Bay aquatics in Laurel was the first day that I gained hope that my condition would get better. I’ve only been going to Christine for two weeks now and I’ve already noticed a huge difference including being able to take my first steps without assistance. If you want physical therapy done right, then Christine is who you go too. She’s been a blessing.

Fantastic experience: My time at the laurel location of Chesapeake physical therapy was amazing. I went in there with so much pain, and finished all my sessions feeling amazing at the end. They took their time in explaining everything to me, and making sure I feel comfortable in every way. I also love they way they are practicing social distancing and making sure that everyone is safe during this trial time of COVID19. Kristine is wonderful with her feathered hands and always brings out a smile during every experience. Over all this place is great.

Fantastic experience: Cannot stress enough how fantastic this team is. Patience, flexibility, understanding and professionalism are the things that come to mind. Brittany is the front door and welcomes you with her smile and warm personality. Every therapist took such good care with my husband and gave me amazing care without realizing they had done it with their attitude and caring.

Fantastic experience: I have a great experience and staff are so friendly. I am very happy with my progress because I am walking a lot better. I am well loved even when I am moody sometimes because of pain. Now, I am so happy to be better and I highly recommend Chesapeake Bay PT. You should come to this PT Clinic so so feel and do better.

Fantastic experience: I first started at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy in 2015 and again 2017 for a back injury. When I injured both of my quadriceps, I did not have to think about who I wanted to correct the issue. I knew I would return to Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy. Prior to coming to Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy in 2015, most physical therapists provided only temporary relief of the pain from injuries that I had. When I was here in 2015 and 2017, all of the staff, that I have talked to and worked with, were extremely professional and cared deeply for their patients. When I returned in 2020, I experienced that same professional caring environment that I had in the past. They are genuinely happy to see me. Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy has the best therapists I have ever worked with. I would recommend them to anyone who needs to see a physical therapist for any reason. I appreciate all they have done to increase my quality of life.

Fantastic experience: I started going to CBay a few months ago shortly after my second ACL and meniscus revision. I began working with Mark for my first 12 weeks before he transitioned to the day shift, and have since been working with Kristine. They are both great assets to the clinic as my progression through rehab has been productive. The facility itself has a little but of everything that you need — resistance bands of all levels, dumbbells, ankle weights, cardio equipment, and more! The staff are all accommodating and keep up great communication. I would highly recommend, especially if you are in the Laurel area!

Fantastic experience: The hardest part was choosing the right place to get my physical therapy done and lucky for me I found this place. The staff was wonderful and full of information on my injury. I came in with a boot recovering from a torn Achilles and within a month I was gaining strength and living a normal life. After 2 months I was back to work as a mailman feeling no pain whatsoever. The hours of operation helped out because I was able to come in before or after to work to get my sessions in. Every staff member was so helpful even if you weren’t assigned to them on that particular day. Their overall goal is to get you better and with me they succeed beyond my expectations!!!!!! I truly thank everybody that help me throughout my therapy.

Fantastic experience: After learning that my double knee ailment was more severe than I thought, I did not put much faith into additional physical therapy. I honestly thought I was destined for knee surgery, I was wrong. Christine was patient and educated me on the treatment/exercises that would help me feel better. In less than a month, she has helped me build muscle, improve my stamina and increase my mobility. Last week, I visited the local mall...something I have avoided for over a year. Mark/Eric sessions on addressing my lower back pain really helped me get back on my feet after major surgery. Addressing my pain while slowly helping me gain strength in my core has helped me so much. I didn’t realize how important core strength can dictate how much you can and cannot move around. I appreciate the entire staff and their flexibility in working around my personal schedule and crazy commute.

Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed my therapy treatment at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic Physical Therapy/ Laurel, MD; even though it was painful getting better. The customer service was excellent starting at the receptionist desk with Erica to the therapist. A big high-five goes out to the manager, Kristine Losarito. You will not be disappointed. All the best. M.W.

Fantastic experience: Your entire staff, especially Kristine who was instrumental in me achieving the necessary range of motion on my knee after surgery, this process took about eight weeks of one on one training and with me doing my required exercises at home (you must work out at home). I can now walk with confidence and safely navigate curbs and stairs. I highly recommend Chesapeake Bay in Laurel Maryland.

Fantastic experience: All the therapists who helped me were kind and extremely helpful with dealing with my recovery. They answered all of my questions thoroughly and made sure I understood everything. They were also friendly and made sure I knew what to do after my discharge. This is my second time having to have physical therapy for my back and my second visit to Chesapeake Bay. I'd recommend them for anyone who needs physical therapy.

Fantastic experience: The professional employees are exceptionally courteous and respectful! They are genuinely interested in the all round well-being of their patients. In other words, they are truly focused on getting their patients back to a near perfect condition than they came in with initially, both physically and emotionally! They listen to their patients and share the plans for getting them back to health with them. They adapt different modalities to ensure the best results! I've had several PTs and all are highly skilled and empathetic, however, Jyoti is a gem! Thank y'all for taking great care of me.

Fantastic experience: Kristine, Eric and Rebecca did a great job with professional and personal care in bringing me back to very good health. Had some issues with my arms/wrists/elbows and they did a great job. After the first two visits I was 60% better. A fine group of people with a spirit of caring.

Fantastic experience: I thought the convenience of the location was enough. All else I can manage. It's not traffic. The staff is accommodating with your appointments. They are very observant in knowing the patients and accommodating them accordingly. I personally have shown significant progress given the fact I do physical therapy to avoid surgery. The staff is very knowledgeable . I selected the best place to help with that goal.

Fantastic experience: The staff here is amazing. They know how to walk the line between tough love and compassion. They modify my exercises based on my symptoms and pain levels. They do a great job of communicating, so I schedule with whatever therapists schedule lines up with mine.

Fantastic experience: I had a really wacky schedule and the good folks at CBSPT took it all in stride when I needed to cancel (within 24 hours) or shift things around a bit. Both the “land” (traditional PT exercises at their office) and pool exercises have been helpful, but I especially loved doing the ones in the pool. All of the exercises helped me regain lost strength and do things I have otherwise been unable to do. Thank you, Kristine and all the lovely folks at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy for a job well done! You definitely have a repeat customer in me!

Fantastic experience: Great staff! Very welcoming and patient therapists. I love bringing my mom for her therapy and she feels the session are improving her mobility. It's very therapeutic for me as well. I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’m a repeat customer at Chesapeake Bay Aquatic & Physical Therapy. They are miracle workers. Eric, Sylvia, and Katie helped me improve my mobility and I have minimal hip and back discomfort. As with all PT, the patient has to keep up with the stretches and exercises. They have a great team...professional and friendly. If you need PT, I highly recommend the Laurel facility.

Fantastic experience: Want to be treated like a King or Queen and still have a productive therapy session? This is the place! Everyone is super nice here, they know you by name, and smiles and intelligence are abound. Starting with Silvia (awesome sauce), Katie, Britt (always so upbeat when you need it), and Liam at the front desk. I wouldn’t and couldn’t think of going anywhere else! Other places provide physical therapy. Chesapeake Bay provides physical care. Love these guys!
