“I have had PT in a lot of different places in US and abroad and this was the first time I felt that I am receiving a treatment very specific to my needs. First day was an overview of my capability and with the results of a MRI I had he knew what was needed. Basically I need PT in order to begin standard PT. I have been dealing with back issues since 1981/82. I can tell which provider I can trust. I felt before the first session was over I could trustAhmed.

“I initially booked the appointment on line but was contacted to re-schedule as the time and date I picked was unavailable. Once changed several reminders were sent via email, text and on the downloaded app. Once I got there, the front desk handled me efficiently, was courteous and explained the process. The PT I had was also courteous and took the time to explain things which I appreciated ”

January 11, 2026Luis R.Verified patient
First initial visit went super well ! Doctor listened to me which is a relief because everyone else kept over looking my symptoms. He spoke to me and checked me out and gave me my diagnosis and we’re working together now on a treatment plan to get me back together again. 10/10 do recommend coming here even the receptionist was friendly

A very nice, clean office. Staff is also very friendly. Only SMALL issue there was a small language barrier with the physician. I did have to ask him to repeat himself a couple times. However, not enough to where I wouldn't go back. Very very nice and professional place.

I only had one visit so far, Although I did not see the doctor who started this center I saw many highly trained, wonderful therapists who cared about my concerns and gave me great first patient tests. I look forward to seeing them regularly to improve my conditions.

Dr. Ahmed has a great thing going here. The place is clean and his assistants work hard on the preliminary stuff, delivering the pre-PT treatments nicely. Then when that was finished, as Ahmed said, "Let's get to work." And I was put through a series of rather challenging [but totally manageable] exercises, which he assured me would help me with my issues [thoracic muscle spasms and some hip muscle strain]. I enjoyed his positive energy and encouragement as he reminded me to tighten my core, keep my feet curled upwards, back arched, et al. It was a lot to take in, in one session, but I have no doubt Dr Ahmed knows what he is talking about. He embodies [literally] what he teaches. It was also fun to watch him make the rounds with other clients, guiding each one patiently and specifically. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

Rave review for Dr. Abdelaal and his team! Lovely, clean facility. Staff is warm, professional and knowledgeable. I came in for treatment for severe lower back pain and they took excellent care of me.
More than 1 year agoShani F.Verified patient
I would 100% reccomend Dr. Abdelaal and Fyzical as a practice to people in need of PT. I'm currently seeing the doctor for a case of vertigo, which we talked about thoroughly in my first meeting, and in just the few sessions that I've been to, I have felt nothing but comfort and care.
Also, for any trans/non binary patients looking for a PT, would wholly reccomend Dr. Abdelaal for his kindness and attention to respecting names and pronouns. I left a note when making my first appointment about my name being different than my legal name and not only are all my documents under that name, but I have never been called anything but that name. Another thing to make me feel really safe in that office.

Dr. Ahmed Abdelaal is a great doctor. It was amazing to work with him. After my first session, I immediately felt relief from the pain I was experiencing. He answered all of my questions, helped me to understand my condition, and how to heal it. I highly recommend him to anyone with a hand injury. He is a very talented physical therapist.
July 15, 2021Anas M.Verified patient
I rarely write reviews because I rarely feel compelled to do so. Don’t walk, run to this place. If you can’t run, walk slowly or call a cab, or take the train .... but get there because when you leave you will have a new sense of HOPE, SUPPORT, UNDERSTANDING and APPRECIATION of not just yourself but for this wonderful and kind and diverse neighborhood we live in that is packed up with professionals and people who not only CAN help but want to and with great passion, professionalism and personality behind it! Fantastic! So happy FYSICAL is here ... it’s spelling is different because they are different ... you can say that again!!
May 20, 2021Theresa A.Verified patient
The office is clean, organized and very welcoming. Dr. Abdelaal is a really cool guy; despite juggling reception and patients at the time of my appointment, he was attentive to everyone and my carpal tunnel felt a lot better after my first visit. He gave me simple exercises and explained my issue clearly. Even though the office is pretty far from me, I have no problem making the trip here for the amazing service. Dr even gave me places to check out in the neighborhood to make my long drive there worth while, such an awesome guy; highly recommend!
