She is an amazing PT and an amazing person.
August 4, 2023Ceren S.Verified patient
She is very sympathetic and helpful in developing a plan. This is the first time I have required PT and was feeling quite discouraged due to my pain after an accident. She was very encouraging and assured me everything would be ok which I very much appreciate.

I’ve been working with Dr Sama for a few weeks to heal sciatic nerve pain. She listens really well, provides clear and helpful feedback, and most importantly, my symptoms are improving! She uses multiple modalities on me including ultrasound, massage, and cupping. Extremely friendly and energetic. She has been exactly what I was hoping for when I booked her and I will recommend her to anyone I know that needs physical therapy. I have an extremely active job and have full confidence that I will be able to return in tip-top shape in no time! The clinic on 11th Ave is wonderful and spacious.

She was comfortable to deal with my injury. I am currently, a paraplegic, and I hadn't told her that. She immediately booked my next appointment. She believes I can walk again which means a lot to me.

Dr. Sama is very professional and caring with all her patients. She has been treating me for sometime now after my injury and I would have never recovered without her. I used to be in a lot of pain and couldn't sleep well or/and walk/hold things in my hands, but now I am able to write the review with more ease.
More than 1 year agoLS
