Morgan, the physical therapist MedStar sent for at-home PT, is superb! She worked with my husband after he fell and was hospitalized for five days. The exercises, tools and tips she gave him made a big difference in his full physical recovery and the prevention of future falls. She is highly skilled and perceptive, and working with her was a pleasure. Leah, the speech therapist from MedStar, is also excellent! Very knowledgeable and astute, she is tops in her field. MedStar Home Care served us so well!

Coming home from back surgery I wanted to get back on my feet and mobile asap. The MedStar team of Nurses, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and even Social Services that came to my home for several weeks was a fantastic help. It’s just me here so I greatly appreciated their care and guidance and most of all their counseling.

Very professional, very nice and always on time. Communication was great both before and during each visit. The nurses and therapist made me feel very comfortable and were fun, you could tell they genuinely cared.

My mother required PT/OT post fall with fractured hip. Beth and Dara were phenomenal. They made a personalized safety plan to ensure that my mother would be safe leaving my home for hers. They would go to her home and assess her needs. They provided encouragement and has such compassion for her. I can honestly say that mom would have had a setback without them. If you are considering therapy for yourself or a loved one put this group at the top of your list. You won’t regret it.

Everyone I worked with from MedStar providing home healthcare and therapy after my stroke was highly skilled and terrific people. My nurse was great, providing advice & information about my healing journey. My PT therapist Beth discovered why I was having a balance issue and put me on a good trek toward correcting it. Dara, my awesome OT worked with me to get my home more efficient to carry on with my temporary handicap and worked with me to help get my hand working properly again. They were invaluable to the beginning of my wellness journey before releasing me to outpatient therapy. Thank you ladies so much for all your hard work and help! Best regards to you! You gave me a terrific foundation to recovery!
