Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Dr. Gren quickly diagnosed my problem and took a lot of care in helping me relieve pain long-term.

By the time I left her office, I felt some relief on my shoulder issue. She gave me a few short, easy-to-do exercises until our next meeting. She also pointed out to me several possible sources that may have caused my shoulder pain, including my work station. She is very friendly and has a great bedside manner.

Melinda was excellent. Immediately warm and outgoing, she was able to methodically and thoroughly investigate the issue I was having. She developed a nice rapport with me early on to identify the cause of my pain, and provided me with an excellent recovery plan. Highly recommend!

Dr. Gren is one of my all time favorite physicians. She is so kind and warm! I saw her every week for about 10 weeks after I had my hip replaced and she got me back into fighting shape! I would recommend her to absolutely anyone!
September 16, 2014Lane S.Verified patient
Dr. Gren was fantastic. So patient, so willing to explain things, and so encouraging during all phases of my visit! I couldn't be happier.
July 17, 2014Christian H.Verified patient
Dr. Gren was very professional and created a comfortable atmosphere. She asked multiple questions about my concerns and made sure she completely understood my injury before beginning any work together. She did not rush our appointment at all and did multiple exercises to identify the problem. She then gave multiple recommendations for things I could do at home and then practiced them together. She also helped me understand how this work fits into my marathon training plan and how to approach this training with my injury in mind. I am looking forward to continuing to work with her on my road to recovery. HIGHLY recommend!!
July 2, 2014Ellen S.Verified patient
Dr. Gren is great. Very professional and friendly. Transparent about her thought process and open to discussion about treatment. The whole office is bright and welcoming. I look forward to my appointments, which I never thought I'd say about any doctor's office.
September 17, 2014Jillian F.Verified patient
Dr Gren was professional, knowledgable and very personable. Though she gave me exercises and stretches to do at home I am going to continue to see her for massage to relieve some joint pain from my pregnancy and would highly recommend her.
August 13, 2014Alexis C.Verified patient
The visit with Melinda Gren was a very positive experience. She was attentive to my concerns and I felt comfortable asking whatever questions I had. Her treatment for my issue was also great and I feel enthusiastic about my prognosis. I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends.

Dr. Gren was extremely friendly, asked lots of relevant questions to determine the best course of treatment, and gave constructive "homework" exercises to work on until my next appointment. My only disappointment is that her office does not do orthotic insert consultations.

Dr. Gren was fantastic! Great office and wonderful experience overall. Only sad that I left the area before I could finish treatment! Thank you Dr. Gren!

As a personal trainer I need my body to be healthy in order to make my living. Melinda has been able to get me back on track after two injuries now and is my go-to when I need help with recovery.
June 3, 2014Paul D.Verified patient
Dr Gren was extremely professional and friendly...she went straight to the problem and gave clear advice for correcting my issue.
May 31, 2014Matthew M.Verified patient
My visit to Dr. Gren's office was great. The office management handled logistics like filling out forms and making appointments promptly and efficiently. Dr. Gren was punctual, and took her time listening to my explanation of the problems I'd been having. She was thorough in examining me physically to pinpoint the source of pain and to recommend the best course of action to solve it. I never felt rushed through examination/treatment or pressured to make lots of appointments. I was paid quality attention and left feeling better. Thank you, Dr. Gren and staff!
April 18, 2014Kara K.Verified patient
She's friendly, professional and very knowledge about her expertise. Had a great time visiting her for the first time. I think I've just found myself a good physical therapist in the city.

I would highly recommend Melinda to anyone. What a delightful office staff all around, and Melinda was top notch. An excellent people person combined with deep knowledge and great PT work made the end of my treatment bittersweet because it was so enjoyable. Definitely the best PT place I've been to in downtown DC thus far. Always got in right on time, and was happy with the treatment I got. A bonus was getting to pass the time chatting with such friendly folks.
April 14, 2014Stephen D.Verified patient
I was very impressed with Melinda Gren. She is very personable, knowledgeable, and explains everything very well. She is also careful to not cause too much pain when doing the passive treatment. I highly recommend her.

Excellent! She clearly knows what she is doing.
December 6, 2013David A.Verified patient
Wish more of my doctors had the bedside manner of Dr. Gren and PT specialists in general. I'm just getting started on a circuit of PT but everything is great so far. Smooth running office and on-time appointments with the very cheerful and smiling Dr. Gren who seems to know just what to do.
October 29, 2013Stephen D.Verified patient
Loved it! Went in for a sports injury - was seen right away by Dr. Gren, and left with exercises and clear next steps to improve health. She's fantastic, through, funny, and zeroes right in on the problem. Great facility, and Dr. Gren's staff was quick, thoughtful, and very kind. Hopefully I won't need to go back, but if I do, I won't hesitate.

I received full attention from Melinda with a very thorough explanation of what she was doing and what I could do to promote the healing. She always followed up with written instructions to promote recovery.

Melinda is awesome! Her bedside manner makes you feel very comfortable from the start. She is thorough and spends plenty of time talking and listening to you as time goes on and your condition changes. She thinks outside of the box and is willing to experiment with different things. Definitely the best therapist I have been to!
