Aligned Orthopedic & Sports Therapy at Shady Grove Orthopedics-Rockville

"I returned to OAS for a second time following my TKR, and on both occasions I was treated by Mirsada. I can't say enough about the exceptional care I received from her. Mirsada is extremely knowledgeable and truly cares about her patients and their recovery. I completed three months of PT, and was discharged with a customized home exercise program to continue my progress. Thanks to her guidance, I am well on my way to a full recovery. I could not have healed as well without her support. The entire staff is incredibly friendly, and creates such a welcoming environment. Special thank you to Aldridge, Ann, Crystal and Kyle who always greeted me with a beautiful smile. I also want to thank AMA for recommending Dr Cannova my Orthopedic Surgeon. God bless you all."

"I just completed 12 sessions of physical therapy after my knee replacement surgery and I am so pleased with the results. I thank my physical therapist, Marsada Gudic, for making my knee 99% pain free and straight. She is so professional in her work, and is thoughtful, encouraging, and educational in helping her clients. I highly recommend Marsada as an outstanding physical therapist for your therapy. I also want to thank all the therapists, assistants, and staff at the Rockville, MD location of Aligned Orthopedic & Sports Therapy for also helping me at various times especially, Aldriene, Oseze, and Zeline who were assistants for the therapists and Chelsea who worked at the front desk. All of them called me by name after only one visit and were always cheerful and helpful."

"I had the pleasure to work with Kyle Graves for rehab for my Mini ALIF (minimally invasive anterior lumbar interbody fusion) . Kyle is an amazing professional and actually looked forward to seeing him 2 x a week for the past several months. The best news is I'm feeling great and working with Kyle has made my rehab better. He is very knowledgeable, has great follow up, and a great way of dealing with his patients. I want the management of this organization to know how valuable and employee you have with Kyle Graves. So please take good care of him"

"I received PT at aligned orthopedic after getting a hip replacement. When I signed up for PT I asked for a therapist that was athletic oriented and they matched me with Mirsada Gudic PT, DPT with Ted Wong GPT filling in when Mirsada was out for a few appointments. I found both therapists to be excellent and highly knowledgeable. I got the encouragement and expert care that I needed to progress at a healthy and safe pace. As a triathlete who has had a similar recovery, Mirsada could relate to my recovery and my need to continuing to participate in athletic pursuits which was important to me. I highly recommend working on recovery at aligned! They have lots of great therapists and support staff that really care about your journey back to health!!"

"If you've had knee replacement surgery or need PT for any other reason, you need to go to Aligned Orthopedic & Sports Therapy at Shady Grove Orthopedics-Rockville on Blackwell Road. They are GREAT! I just spent several months there after a very difficult knee replacement with Kyle Graves as my therapist. He was incredible -- kind and supportive but tough when necessary, and relentless in getting me to bend my knee no matter the pain. I was nowhere when I started, only at 50 degrees on the all-important knee bend measurement, and absolutely miserable. By the time I left this week, I was at 120.5, the "gold standard for recovery," as Kyle says, and am walking my dog, going up and down stairs, getting in and out of chairs, and doing everything else needed for a regular life. I still get stiff very easily, which is normal, so Kyle gave me a home regimen and very detailed instructions on how to do it, because full recovery can take up to a year. Trust me -- if you need PT and live in MoCo, this is where you need to go. Kyle made an extremely difficult and painful experience almost fun at times, and the results were amazing. The rest of the crew there, especially Wendy Klecker (with whom I also worked and accomplished several numerical milestones) are also great. I hope this review is helpful!"

"I went here to have my left ankle/foot checked out because I played flag football on thanksgiving and had a left Ankle Ligament Tear. Most of the staff here were somewhat supportive and somewhat friendly the only staff member who had that condescending undertone attitude and gives a notion in his mannerisms like you have no idea what your talking about is Dr Mark Peterson his medical assistant was NICE! he may had graduated top notch with a masters in phd of sports medicine from Georgetown University School of Medicine & etc but his bedside manner's definitely graduated from Lack University and that's at its finest."

"I had a severe right ankle sprain and went to Aligned Ortho in Rockville on Blackwell Rd. Mirsada Gudic was my physical therapist and she was the best!. Along with Wendy, they both persevered to get my ankle back to normal. There was a setback, but we kept going and today I can walk perfectly with no pain. Mirsada was very attentive to my needs and kept nudging the bar just a bit higher each time. I would definitely recommend Aligned Ortho in Rockville, in addition to Mirsada and Wendy! ~ Allison"

"Thank you Aligned Orthopedic & Sports Therapy! All the staff were so caring and professional. My recovery from total knee replacement was a difficult one, but with Mirsada Gudic, I was able to stay focused on her program for me, despite having discouraging setbacks. She's such a knowledgeable, skillful and effective therapist! So caring and encouraging. Thank you also to Wendy, Kyle and Ama who each helped me with my PT recovery when I couldn't schedule with Mirsada."
