The Centers for Advanced Orthopaedics OACM PHYSICAL THERAPY COLUMBIA

"Matthew is truly one of the best physical therapists I've ever worked with. His knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care for his patients really stand out. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and tailors each session to your specific needs. Thanks to his expertise and encouragement, I've seen real progress and felt supported every step of the way. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for an exceptional physical therapist."

"I've had a wonderful experience here, and what truly sets this place apart is my physical therapist, Carmelo Cimato. He treats you like family, showing genuine care and compassion. His attention to detail is remarkable, he takes the time to do thorough evaluations and makes sure every step of the treatment plan is done properly. This is my second course of physical therapy with him. The first time was very successful, and for the second round I was so committed to having Carmelo as my therapist again that I waited a month just to make sure I could work with him. That alone says a lot about the quality of care he provides. As a healthcare provider myself, I can recognize the difference between average and truly exceptional care. Carmelo absolutely delivers high-quality, patient-focused therapy. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your progress and well-being, I highly recommend him. Lastly, I can say all of the physical therapy technicians here are also professional, kind, and always supportive, which makes the entire experience smooth and encouraging."

"I'm a triathlete and runner with chronic intermittent low back pain for years, and PT Duane pinpointed my deficits and prescribed targeted exercises that resolved it in 3 weeks. His instructions were clear, detailed, and specific, and he provided easy-to-understand explanations of the reasoning behind each exercise. He provided actionable real-time feedback on my running technique and followed up with me on my fitness goals throughout my treatment. Appointments were easy to make and always on time. I highly recommend this practice and this PT, and will come back here if I need PT again in the future!"

"The team at Advanced Orthopedics are wonderful! Had a hip replacement with Dr Xie and then a couple of weeks of physical therapy at their Columbia location. All of their people were very knowledgeable, pleasant and caring! I'm very thankful and appreciative of their care!"

"Julie is the absolute best!! She's knowledgeable, thorough, engages in the detailed discussions required to understand the patient's current situation & future goals, and is very effective in suggesting the best program to implement. Most importantly, she gets results!! Ask me, I've been through rehab resultant from 4 different surgeries with her. I wouldn't want anyone else to guide me through the rehab phase of the recovery process."

"My physical therapist, Russ Patti, is the best. He has really worked with me to get me more mobile after my knee replacement. He listens to my input and challenges me to make progress during my recovery. The other staff that work with me assisting Russ are also great "

"The care is perfect, when they are running behind they say so. I appreciate that greatly. Dr Polsky is brillant. The PT part has been taking very good care of me. Over all great experience"

"Beth Ann Basham is amazing! Personable! Warm and highly knowledgeable! Best Physical Therapist my daughter has had!"
