Ann Michelle Ongerth, Clincal Director, and her staff have been instrumental in supporting my 22 year old college student with her recovery from a winter break ACL knee surgery. She had only 3-weeks to get strong enough post surgery to return to campus for the next quarter and be independent enough to get around mostly on her own. Ucla is a hilly campus with very limited parking so this seemed like a daunting goal, but with Albany Physical Therapy’s expert guidance and treatment, she was able to meet this goal! I can’t express my gratitude strongly enough for Ann Michelle and the staff as a mother, knowing my daughter is now stable enough and ready to return to school to continue her healing journey. My daughter entered in extreme pain and after only two weeks is able to exercise and move on her own. The staff have been so caring and prioritized getting her appointments because they saw how much she needed them. The most effective, supportive, thoughtful, and fun physical therapy you could hope for!

This review is specifically for Ariel - she is the best PT I've ever had! I went in multiple times for hip, lower back, and sciatica-related help. Ariel is really knowledgeable and also really kind and encouraging. I would tell her about some pain or discomfort then she would test the area and give me an exercise that always helped. Her explanations were clear and I always left feeling supported and encouraged. From the beginning, I told her that I wondered if I could ever go backpacking again. After seeing my x-rays and working with me, she assessed that there was no reason why I couldn't go. So she gave me tons of different exercises with increasing difficulty levels that I could adjust as I got stronger (even in-between visits). Perhaps even more importantly, she understood right away that my previous PT had discouraged me and seemed to figure out exactly the kind of advice to give me. Bottom line - about a year later I went backpacking and felt good about it and didn't have any problems with my hip or back on the trip. I highly recommend Ariel - she is hands down the best PT I've ever worked with!!

If you get here to this facility stop looking - it's the place to be that will help you recover in short order - no short cuts but outstanding care and attention to your progress and recovery. Use of metrics are taken in order to baseline and validate your continued incremental results. I know as I had close to 50 PT sessions. All the personnel from the back and front office are great. And the Physical Therapist that you will meet to care for you are outstanding and vested in you from day one. I Highly recommend this facility. E. Mora

Ann Michelle is a hero! When we walked in my son could barely walk with a walker. He had fractured his tibial tubercle and avulced his patella tendon two months earlier, and had been bedridden for two months. Almost immediately upon beginning treatment with Ann Michelle, my son finally started to regain mobility. She was fiercely dedicated to getting him back up on his feet walking, and even back to snowboarding again eventually. Her deep knowledge of the body and how it heals was stunning. Her cheerful demeanor was as healing as her massage and strengthening work. My son is devoted to her and we are all deeply grateful.

We also had a good experience with the front desk staff and scheduling has been smooth and easy (once we got in).

I recommend Albany Physical therapy Clinic because of the comprehensive care given by all the therapists there.This is my second treatment experience over the past few years, and the exceptional care has not changed.

I can’t say enough about the staff at this location. You cannot ask for a more caring group if individuals who love what they are doing and care about delivering their best to each patient. My parents received excellent care from the therapists and we appreciate them all so much. The ladies at the front desk are friendly and helpful whenever I have questions or concerns with appointments. Ann Michelle goes out of her way to ensure that patients with special needs get the extra attention they need. What a great group of people.
