    I’ve been coming to the Mt. Juliet clinic for physical therapy for several months, and my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. I’ve worked with both Abby Howard and Helena Aiyad, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received. They are both knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, and have played a significant role in the progress I’ve made. I frequently recommend them to others because I truly feel I’m receiving excellent care during every appointment. Unfortunately, I have had a very different experience with another therapist at the clinic, Casey. During my visits, I’ve overheard comments regarding politics, patients’ weight, and gender that I felt were inappropriate for a healthcare setting. I’ve also noticed food left out on one of the treatment beds in the back of the clinic, which raised concerns about cleanliness and professionalism. In addition, he is often on the phone and does not appear to be giving his full attention to his patients. Because of these experiences, if Abby or Helena are unavailable, I choose to postpone or decline my physical therapy appointments rather than be scheduled with Casey. I have always appreciated the exceptional care I’ve received at the Mt. Juliet clinic, which is why I wanted to share this feedback. My hope is that these concerns are addressed so that every patient can have the same positive experience I’ve had with Abby and Helena.

    The receptionist is horrible. She made and another lady wait 5 minutes before acknowledging us because she was on a personal call. Then told me I had to wait while she got permission from corporate to see me because their systems were not communicating. Mean while my knee is hurting. I should have gone to the emergency room.

    I had a wonderful experience with the entire team! Everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely cared about making me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. The staff was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. It’s refreshing to be treated with such compassion and respect. I truly appreciate the excellent care I received and would highly recommend this orthopedic physical therapy office to anyone looking for a friendly, professional team that goes above and beyond!

    This place is the best! They saved me from having to have surgery. Terry was great with my ortho care and the physical therapy guys Zac and Riley were top notch! A special thanks to Miss Debbie at the front desk! She really makes everyone feel welcome!

    I was referred here for an issue with my elbow. It’s been hurting for several weeks. I had to pay 200$ just to be seen by a PA with an unfriendly attitude like she didn’t want to bother with me. She said I could do an MRI but most insurances don’t cover it so she wouldn’t even bother. Although I pay good money for good insurance. Then she told me I should just stop whatever I’m doing that’s aggravating it or go to PT. I’ll never be back.
