C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy DC

I was referred to Jeff Robinson by my hernia surgeon as well as my sports medicine doctor Marc Connell for recurrent groin pain after a number of hernia surgeries.
Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and confident that we could resolve my pain. I really started to notice a difference at the 4 week mark after 8 sessions of manual therapy, dry needling and at home strengthening exercises. After about 12 weeks my pain was completely gone.
I would highly recommend Jeff and the entire staff at C.O.R.E. I can’t thank them enough.

Physical therapy staff is good and caring. Front desk is competent although could be friendlier at times. We had no problems with billing. Unsure if they double book clients. The physical therapist our son saw was never on time unfortunately. Don’t arrive early as there isn’t much in the way of seating.

I came to C.O.R.E. this summer to try physical therapy for my scoliosis (curved spine). I worked with Kendall Black, one of the few professionals trained in the Schroth method of scoliosis treatment in the DC area, and I cannot sing her praises enough! Kendall was extremely knowledgeable and well-​trained and used her expertise to create a unique, responsive program to meet my exact needs and goals. While Kendall was professional and skilled, she was also incredibly friendly and encouraging! She kept me motivated and optimistic while challenging me. Best of all, the great service I received has helped my back tremendously and improved my health beyond what I even thought possible.
In addition to the excellent care I received, the entire C.O.R.E. office was extremely well run. Scheduling was easy, the front desk was always friendly and professional, and they even submitted my bills directly to my insurance company for me.
In short, C.O.R.E. PT has literally changed my life and I would highly recommend Kendall and this great practice!

I wholeheartedly disagree with the Unilocaler, Amy, below. Not only did CORE PT contact my insurance company, which saved me the time and headache, but they also told me exactly how many visits I’d have, where I was on my deductible and how much each session would cost once my insurance was applied. I have been charged accordingly.
This is an extremely professional establishment. It is sparking clean and runs like clockwork.
Hilary, with whom I work, is ALWAYS on time and prepared. She is very knowledgeable and has not only uncovered what my systemic problem is, but has also used innovative techniques to help my chronic neck and back pain. She also has great recommendations for complimentary care and is very cool.

I’ve just had a new, more extensive experience with C.O.R.E., worthy of six or seven stars. I fell off a roof (yes, I know), broke a variety of bones and messed up even more joints and muscles. Ow.
Once the orthopedic surgeon cleared me for PT, I called C.O.R.E. Oh no! Hilary Granat, the whiz who cured me before, was on vacation. I agreed to see Jeff Robinson, grudgingly since Hilary was so great. Jeff did a careful, detailed evaluation of every one of the injuries, showed me a set of exercises and sent me home with customized printed diagrams and clear instructions. He has also used heat, stretches, and deep tissue work. By now (less than 2 months later), all the pain has DISAPPEARED and my body feels like itself again. I have healed much faster and more easily than doctors predicted, from pretty serious injuries. It’s hard to believe how much better I am, so soon.
Jeff has welcomes updates or questions by email, and sends prompt responses. He is extremely knowledgeable — not surprising since he has a PhD and is a professor of PT. I brought my daughter to see him, with a sore knee, and he was just as diligent and scrupulous in studying her case, as he was with my more complicated injuries. Also, he is clearly delighted when his patients improve.
Another reviewer complained about problems with billing and insurance. I have had none — on the contrary billing has been fair and accurate, and CORE handles sending in the insurance claims for me, which is something most doctors’ and other health care offices do NOT do. In my experience the receptionists are friendly and efficient, with one exception on one day. Bottom line: CORE has changed my life and I’m pretty glad…

I came to CORE after experiencing little to no benefit in rehabilitation with other providers in the DC-​metro region. CORE Physical Therapy is a top-​notch facility and the best in the area. I cannot speak highly enough of this facility: it’s practitioners (I worked with Hilary), front desk staff, scheduling system, equipment, and expertise in core health and rehabilitation are highly impressive. Features that I have observed in these practitioners that puts them above the rest are: superior critical thinking, experience, and knowledge base. I directly benefitted from the expertise and compentency at CORE Physical Therapy in diagnostic assessment, treatment protocol, exercise prescriptions, and referral recommendations that I received here, that I did not find at previous establishments where I sought treatment. I started at CORE at the level of referred pain which severly inhbited my activities of daily life, especially progress at my job. Since working at CORE consistently, I now know the origin of my pain, how to prevent it, measures to take if there is a flare up, and overall feel like I have my life back. Currently, I am able to perform the activities of daily life and I am working on reaching the level of athleticism that I had prior to my injury. I would highly recommend my friends, family, and coworkers to CORE Physical Therapy. Lastly, I encourage anyone who has not yet received relief for a chronic ailment to continue to seek options (acupunture, herbs, etc) and opinions (from several MDs, DOs, chiropractors, Naturopaths, etc) — there are many untapped and powerful resources out there — persevere, and surround yourself with supportive friends.

Excellent results for anyone in need of physical therapy. A truly professional and friendly staff and the most amazing PTs anyone could ask for. If you want results, call C.O.R.E. They are the BEST!
