Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic place to work with. Their people care about their patients and really listen to feedback.

Experiencia fantástica: I went from a tendon laceration and subsequent surgery to therapy with Richard Standage and his team. When I began therapy, I was unable to use my thumb at all. After two months of therapy, I was ablee to do most things again. I am grateful for the expert guidance, encouragement, and congenial atmosphere offered. Thank you all.

Experiencia fantástica: I was unsure at first due to past experiences with other physical therapy facilities. But I was extremely pleased with Desert Hand and Physical Therapy.... from the front office to each of the staff. From the very 1st day was greeted with a welcoming smile and a how are you doing today? My therapist was Christine and I absolutely love her. She listens and is genuinely interested in doing all she can do to help resolve your Physical issues. She is a wonderful Human being and it was a pleasure to have her working with me. I had 25 visits with Christine and was sad when my allotted visits were over. Rest assured even if you don't end up with Christine, ..you will still get top notch assistance from either of the other therapist there. They're all great!!! The 2-3 ladies at the front desk are the sweetest as well. Note: Kindness and a smile goes a long way! Thank you all @ Desert Hand and Physical Therapy very much

Experiencia fantástica: After having surgery on my wrist, I new I had to find the best Hand PT place to gain my hand motion back. Payton was my therapist and I highly recommend her! Her expertise and care are exceptional, she is attentive and very respectful when working on your hand, announcing every time what she will do next. Her dedication to improving my hand mobility made all the difference. I couldn't be happier with the results after only 9 weeks! Thank you Payton and thank you to all the staff at Desert Hand in Chandler!

Experiencia fantástica: I was very pleased with my therapy. The initial treatment was thorough and informative. The continued treatment was always attentive to any concerns or questions.. each was progressive.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome student working with the medical professional. Very friendly and thorough.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is easy & pleasant to work & engage with! Nice office atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a client since 2011and they done wonders for the different issues I have seen them for. Also members of my family go to get their physical therapy done too.

Experiencia fantástica: Wanted to thank the team at the Chandler location especially, Anna, Carlos, Cisco, Trent and Barbara! I came in reluctant and frustrated with my situation but they did such a great job of getting me motivated by their great sense of humor and tailoring my plan to my individual needs. Highly recommend for hand therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I needed some therapy for a CMC joint , thumb, right hand. We were going to winter in Arizona so I looked for a therapist here and found Desert Hand and Physical Therapy. The ladies upfront, Barb and Gina were wonderful at finding appointments, helping with the referral process, checking in etc. So kind and professional. All of the staff in the therapy department were knowledgeable, considerate and efficient. I have seen improvement in the use of my thumb and appreciate their thoroughness and push to get rid of the stiffness and ‘uselessness’ of my thumb

Experiencia fantástica: Went here after my cmc joint operation on my left thumb. Staff up front was awesome with my scheduling and billing. The Therapist were all great. Each awesome in there own way. They had me up and running within three months of the cast being removed. I would highly recommend them for all your Physical Therapy needs. Ronny P

Experiencia fantástica: Great and knowledgeable staff. They did awesome work helping me recover after elbow surgery. I'd recommend this place and would return.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone is fantastic here -- the therapists, techs, and the front desk ladies. O.T. Anna is just THE BEST! Experienced, committed, kind, and knowledgeable, she even told me how to save money on my splints since insurance wouldn't cover them! Don't hesitate to get your PT here!

Experiencia fantástica: They literally put my life back together after a fall and broken wrist.

Experiencia fantástica: I’m at the beginning of my treatment. Staff has been awesome. My Therapist Shad is great. I am shock of the progress I have made. Thanks to the front office ladies Barb & Elliot . Very friendly and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: What a great crew everyone was Knowledge and helped get my hand back to working order thanks

Experiencia fantástica: The staff here is phenomenal. I had surgery on my wrist and then had the hardware removed. I have had sessions with each PT. Alex, Shad, and Ana are very attentive and great at explaining the exercises and areas of improvement needed for full mobility. My main therapist is Alex and she is a gem. Barb the tech is great at prepping you once you arrive and her caring personality is unlike no other. You can tell their patients love them. I actually love going to my sessions.

Experiencia fantástica: Upon walking in for my first appointment, I almost immediately found myself in the throws of a panic attack. Shad Bennett was just absolutely phenomenal. He treated me with respect, compassion, and the patience I needed. The level of care he provides allowed me to get past my initial anxiety, and I now look forward to my appointments. I honestly feel he has made a huge difference in my recovery. He is liked and respected by both coworkers and patients. I'm beyond grateful for all the phenomenal care he routinely provides.

Experiencia fantástica: I loved the staff here! Alex, Anna, Shad, and Christine were all lovely to work with. The techs Tatiana, Jill, and Gabby were all incredible as well. A big thank you to Barb for putting up with my crazy schedule! I highly recommend this office. I felt supported during each visit. The environment is welcoming and very clean as well. I am actually going to miss going to my sessions just because the staff is so amazing and caring! Thank you so much for all of your help!!

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is great and Shad explains the reasons for all exercises which provides an incentive to do them at home, too.

Experiencia fantástica: The therapists are knowledgeable and work well as a team. I’ve seen so much improvement for carpal tunnel in both arms and tennis elbow on my dominant arm. The techs and front office staff are also amazingly easy to work with. Never had appointment scheduling be so seamless. Special shout out to my therapist Alex!!

Experiencia fantástica: I was extremely impressed by the care, professional atmosphere, and resources at Desert Hand therapy. My therapist, Shad Bennett, who was very friendly and kind, really helped me progress steadily in the one month I was here in Arizona. I’m really grateful to the clinic for all the help and care they provided. I would highly recommend this place to anyone

Experiencia fantástica: When I first came for therapy, I had a broken hand and a fractured elbow. My movements were very limited and I was in pain. But Shad and his peers were so understanding and kind. He assured me that he would help me get my life back. Week by week I went through therapy and my situation started to improve. The people at the center were all so kind and friendly and I felt happy each time I showed up. I have gained my life back just as Shad promised after 14 weeks. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking therapy as you will never be disappointed. I am indeed grateful for all their help and encouragement they have given me.

Experiencia fantástica: I had severe trauma to my hand from a blast injury and the staff at DHPT was fantastic. I found them to be knowledgeable, experienced and very accommodating. My therapist was excellent and she formulated a dynamic and effective strategy for getting my hand back in to a functional status. I owe her, and the staff there, an immense debt of gratitude.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Caring, competent and compassionate staff! And everyone was always friendly and smiling! They were always willing to answer any questions with patience. Loved Anna - she was great!

Experiencia fantástica: Loved the people at Desert Hand! My therapist Shad was kind and thoughtful with much patients and expertise. The staff Barb, Gina, Elliot and I’m so sorry for whoever I am forgetting are all awesome! Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: i went through a rather difficult surgery and was referred to Desert Hand. i have never felt so welcome. Shad and the whole team made me feel seen. i appreciate them and the attention from each team member. plus they made me laugh.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter had surgery at one point we thought she wouldn't be able to move her pinky again. Shad was very patient and helped her gain full movement and use in her pinky. 100% recommend this place.

Experiencia fantástica: This place has been amazing in helping me gain strength in my right hand. After hand surgery, I wasn’t able to play golf or pickle ball. Shad gave me exercises that strengthen my hand. Thanks everyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was very kind and professional. Shad was able to figure out what was causing the arm issue and put a plan together to fix it. All my questions were answered along the process. There is a great team environment during therapy. I would highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Very impressed with my experience so far at this facility. My range of motion in my injured fingers has improved drastically, and the staff is always patient, gentle, and have great attitudes. I was dreading beginning PT after my injury, but all of the other patients seemed happy to be there, which put me at ease. Barb at the front desk patiently sat and filled out all of my paperwork for me, since my dominant hand was the one injured. Everyone genuinely seems to care how you're doing, even outside of your PT. 10/10, would highly recommend getting your fingers chewed off by a chain and sprocket and getting your physical therapy at Desert Hand.

Experiencia fantástica: Kim is a wonderful first contact when entering. She’s always friendly and kind when greeting you in the waiting room. Staff is also very friendly and you can tell they care.

Experiencia fantástica: I just realized that I should have posted a review years ago, but better late than never. I had a very bad motorcycle accident in March 2015. I started my therapy sessions Chandler DHT location with virtually no right hand movement and very little movement all the way up to the shoulder. I'll neverr be able to properly say thank you the countless hours that the DHT staff spent working with/on me. It truly felt like I gained a new family as I was lucky enough to have a wide variety of Therapists and Therapy Assistants willing to work as a team helping me to make progress and regain some movement and strength in my arm and hand. My journey of continuing small gains continued for about 3.5 years. The DHT staff, nor I, gave up. My recovery was not full, but I was taught how to make the most of the gains we were able to produce. I'll never be able to thank everyone at DHT who lent their knowledge an time to help me. I would be remiss if I didn't say 'Thanks' to Richard, Desarae, Adam and Amy for taking the point positions in my recovery. I highly recommend DHT..

Experiencia fantástica: I have had a great experience here. The staff are friendly, compassionate, and very competent. I have never had a doubt that my recovery was their priority. Questions are always welcome and answered in easy to understand language. I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: The patient at Desert Hand Therapy was not Jim Chamness; it was Sandra Chamness. We share a Google account. I wanted to document the expert and kind treatment I received from the staff at the Chandler location for the past several months as I was regaining the use of my left hand/wrist. My therapist was Shad Bennett and I cannot say enough about his caring attitude as he was helping me recover from a badly broken wrist. He made the journey to a functional wrist a very positive experience! I felt that my recovery was due to his diligence and expertise as he directed me regarding home exercises as well as those in the clinic. I also want to thank all the aides and other personnel in the clinic who were always positive and helpful. They were wonderful as well. Sandra Chamness

Experiencia fantástica: I am at the end of my treatment time with Desert Hand and Physical Therapy and it has been a great experience. All the employees are very kind and attentive. Happy to have had this as my place of treatment.

Experiencia fantástica: I am so grateful to this facility for giving me full use of my hand back. I was quite hopeless right after my surgery, but thanks to my awesome OT Shad Bennett, I’ve made a full recovery. Shad is so kind, personable, and the utmost professional. He was very encouraging and always pushed me to do my best! I will be grateful to him forever. Also a special shout-out to the friendly receptionist Terry who always greeted me with a smile and to the amazing techs, Trent and Barb, who also actually made my 3 months of therapy very enjoyable:) I’d recommend this location and especially Shad to anyone who needs it!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and very knowledgeable of what they are doing. The staff is kind and fast. My therapist, Shad, got my wrist back to nearly 100% in about a month or so. Would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: After a disagreement with an air conditioner condenser fan that just shredded my dominant hand, shattered the 5th metacarpal bone and shredded the 3 tendons for middle finger to pinky finger, I knew I wanted to find a physical therapist that specializes in hands to help with my rehabilitation. I live outside of the metro area and there are therapists closer to home, but they deal more often with therapies after hip and knee replacement surgeries. I chose this location because they specialize in hands and they were relatively close (think 50ish miles) from where I live. I was assigned to the therapist Richard, and I certainly benefitted from his 30 +/- years experience as a therapist specializing in hands. With persistence and his guidance I've recovered about 95 percent use of my hand again. I'm no longer in therapy there, but I am still using the guidance that he provided to increase the range of motion in my hand. A great thank you to all of the therapists, assistants, interns, and front staff for making the experience what it was.

Experiencia fantástica: Shad is amazing and I highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a fantastic therapist. He is patient, knowledgeable and encouraging. He has made such a difference in my recovery and returning to my daily activities. And, for this, I am eternally grateful!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had PT many times at other places and this is the best place especially for hand therapy. My therapist is expert and all the staff are courteous efficient and highly trained.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is so AWESOME!!!! SHAD is a great therapist and always cares. The ladies in the front office are terrific!!! The therapy techs are just as awesome. Barb is terrific, but like I said they are all great. THANK YOU

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best therapy clinic

Experiencia fantástica: Great people and excellent service. Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: All of the staff here are super friendly and passionate about their jobs! Matt was my therapist and took excellent care of me hand and wrist through multiple surgeries. Both Trent and Barb were great as well! The front office staff were friendly and professional.

Experiencia fantástica: Richard, Barb, and Trent are so fantastic! They make a miserable healing process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Great atmosphere!

Experiencia fantástica: I had the best experience here. The staff are very friendly and caring. My therapist Shad was amazing never letting me give up and pushed me to my full potential. Thank you for everything.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone does a great job. I go to Allison for my hand and Tara for my shoulder. Highly recommended them. My husband just started going to Richard. He did go to another place for OT but he feels Richard is doing a much better job.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wrist ulnocarpal abutment (ulna bone shortening)surgery done in February 2020. I started working with Matt in mid July. (Matt is also working on my shoulder) I am extremely satisfied with my progress since I changed over to Desert Hand and P.T. in July. All the staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable.

Experiencia fantástica: Tara is an incredible PT. I went to her with really bad pelvic pain after 6 months postpartum. She did a few tests and was able to pinpoint exactly what the problem was. She is extremely knowledgeable and really cares about me as a patient. Kala, who works with Tara is great at what she does as well. Tara lists off a whole slew of things for Kala to do and she just jumps right in.

Experiencia fantástica: The therapists and staff at Desert Hand Therapy are the best! The ladies at the front desk are always kind and courteous. My therapist, Shad Bennett, demonstrated a great deal of compassion and knowledge when working with me. He always took the time to explain everything he was doing, showed detailed pictures to help explain the inner workings of my hand, and gave me many exercises I could do on my own at home to speed up my progress. The therapy technicians also did a great job and worked as a team to ensure that every patient was taken care of. The entire staff made my experience very pleasurable, and I am very grateful for everything they did to help me. It is with great pleasure that I recommend Desert Hand Therapy for all your hand therapy needs. Janelle Smith

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at Dessert Hand and PT, is very nice and willing to help and answer questions. Appointments are easy to make and there’s no wait. The atmosphere is very relaxed. You never feel rushed. If you need physical therapy, I would highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: All the employees at Desert Hand and Therapy in Chandler have been exceptional. From the front to back office, they care about you and your progress. Shad is my therapist; Alison, Richard, and Matt have all helped to ensure my therapy has stayed on track to heal my broken bones and spirit. Barb, Trent, and D’Amani are all very caring and engaging, helping to make you feel comfortable, by encouraging you every step of the way. Call out to Shad, he has brought me from not being able to move my arm, elbow, wrist, or fingers, to being able to flex my arm, rotate my wrist, and make a fist as well as use my fingers. Shad has given me the tools and confidence I need to keep pushing myself to get to the next level, by improving my range of motion in my entire arm. He’s warm and caring as well as brutal when the situation warrants it (Stretching my arm to the limit). I’m eternally grateful for all the help, love, and support I’ve received during my recovery. Not only have my bones, healed, scars fading, and arm moving, I’ve bounced back and feel like enjoying life again. I’m going to miss all of them! Thank you ALL!! Zoe Zoe

I would highly recommend DHT to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Desert hand and physical therapy is the best. Richard and the staff make it as pleasant as it can be and have worked with me after 5 surgeries and one to go. I’ll feel confident knowing they’ll be there for after surgery PT - thank you so much!

Everyone was friendly and cheerful from therapists to front desk. Thanks to all of you at DHT. You are the best!

Experiencia positiva: The staff at Desert hand therapy are super friendly, helpful and fun to hang out with. They don’t even get mad at me when I yell at them across the room. Of course, they are also extremely knowledgeable and at the same time open to suggestions. I will certainly miss them when I am finished with my therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: My son broke his wrist and has been going here for a couple months now. They allow your chaperones/family to sit with the patient during therapy. They are very friendly, organized, caring and the therapy room is clean and inviting.

Experiencia fantástica: New location. New building. Fresh, clean environment. Helpful and friendly staff.

Experiencia negativa: New patient, they want you to come early, but have all doors locked. Nothing saying why. Annoyed & frustrated.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic! I have been to many PTs and this one is the greatest of them all! Terra is an amazing therapist! I can't explain how wonderful she is! I believe if I hadn't come to her I wouldn't have gotten better. Thank you so much! The staff here is wonderful as well. Everyone is so helpful and understanding. I highly recommend. Everyone come here.

Experiencia fantástica: They are the best.
