Gardena Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation Center

the only problem i have is with the policies. this place charges for missed appt. with no exception but the 1^st. any missed or late beyond 30 mins. and they charge. no exceptions. for dealing with people in pain and in some cases worse you’d think they’d have compassion. nope. be are in it for the $$$. the therapists are great just customer service and policy. had an appt and had this school shut down and they tell me well you’ll be charged 20 doolars? something totally out of my control and no compassion from them.

I’ve been coming into Gardena Physical Therapy for therapy on my left knee & right foot for several weeks and am really impressed with the expert care I am receiving. The Tech’s are knowledgeable & friendly & the Therapists are top-​notch! I have experienced great improvement — slow by steady. I highly recommend Gardena PT if you are near.

I have been attending Gardena Physical Therapy for a few months now and love it. I was referred to this location and was told that they had amazing staff. I couldn’t be happier with my progress that I have seen just over these few months. Elise, Chuck and Jennifer have been great to work with and the front staff has always been very friendly and helpful. I am starting to feel back to normal again and I have Gardena Physical Therapy to thank for that. I am so glad that I was referred to Gardena PT and highly recommend it to anyone.

AMAZING STAFF… I LOVE LOVE LOVE, Gardena physical therapy. The staff is SIMPLY THE BEST!!! I have been seeing them for a couple of months and I feel fantastic! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL OF THEM, especially Chuck, Elise, Jennifer, Dwight.

Gardena Physical Therapy (GPT) has been a great help for me on my way to returning to functionality after a major stroke that left me fully paralyzed on the left side of my body. My first visit to GPT was in a wheelchair and now with regular visits I am able to walk with a cane. The physical therapist and staff are very caring and attentive, tailoring each program to the patients specific needs that have proven to be very effective. The staff are efficient working on multiple patients at a time while the very knowledgable physical therapist provide focused and quality attention to each patient. I highly recommend Gardena Physical Therapy.

I recently had some issues with my lower back which pretty much incapacitated me. On the third day of absolutely no progress I called my doctor and was given a referral to see the therapists at Gardena Physical Therapy. After my first visit and subsequent at home work I woke up the next morning feeling about 50% better which was enough for me to drive and work part time again. I continued visits the following days and within a week I went from completely immobilized to back to normal and being active. The depth and knowledge of the Gardena PT team (especially Jana) gave me insight into my back problems and how to prevent them. I am very luck I was referred to Gardena PT and would recommend it to anyone.

Staff are okay but they move very slow. They work on multiple ppl at one time, leaving you waiting to proceed with the next exercise.

1 star for decent clinical work. minus 0 stars for the rest. For starters, my dad has Medi-​cal, he got referred from his primary care doctor. First, they scheduled him a few weeks out (which was perfect as he hasn’t been in the best health). then shortly after the daily calls started asking him to come in that exact day in a few hours (mind you he already had an appt scheduled), because an appt freed up they would call, then the next day… the same. my dad felt so harassed (I have the caller ID log to prove it) he finally went in on a random day. It was fine, 2^nd appt– he got sick, because he is SICK and then he got a bill for $ 25 for missed appt. which is nuts considering he has Medi-​cal. does this place not even realize Medi-​cal is for people who are low income? sometimes even at Poverty lines? .Anyway, he tried to go reason with the receptionist or whatever alleged position she has… and it did not go over well. My dad then told them he wanted to cancel all future services. He scraped the $ 25 anyway he could to pay that first missed fee, and now he has a bill for $ 40 for second missed appts. HELLOOOOO… he requested to cancel ALL services! I wonder if medi-​cal knows you charge Medi-​cal patients for missed appts (whatever the reason), 2. awful customer services 3. not knowledgeable 4. abusive to those not as literate in healthcare and those that are low income. Maybe if you have private insurance is okay but if you have Medi-​cal, stay away. Just because you need help to pay for healthcare doesn’t mean you need to tolerate being mistreated for a grimy business who kept harassing my dad. and he is a very adherent patient. had you given him the chance. I guess don’t get sick and frail, because if you miss an appt you will be punished. and yes, I know that providers lose money when appts are missed. But fees like that should be reserved for those that are chronic no shows. We will be contacting Medi-​cal, better business bureau and any health advocates to inform them of your practice,. If this is how you treat seniors and the disadvantaged… you don’t deserve to be in business… Hire a social worker — maybe your staff needs training on drivers of the psych socially disadvantaged; the effects of declining health, limited income and aging. learn how to treat your patients. or do everyone a favor and don”t be a Medi-​Cal Provider… thieves!
oh and you might be asking, well didn’t he read the print on the service contract… guess what? he was RUSHED and to top it off there is a tiny sign in their office w/​their cancellation fee notice. Just stay away folks. GO somewhere where you will get the respect you deserve.

Great place to get physical therapy. The staff is very kind and they spend quality time with each patient. The therapists are very knowledgeable and create an individualized plan for each patient.
