Blue Bell, Pennsylvania – Strive PT Reviews

I had a fantastic experience at Dresher physical therapy in Blue Bell, Michael Dellapena was my personal physical therapist, he is extremely friendly and knowledgeable along with the rest of the staff I met (Chrissy, Chris, Matt, etc.). In February I slipped down slate stairs and fractured the c6 & c7 vertabrae in my neck. After 8 sessions I graduated, the whole time I felt supported and care from the whole team. If you or someone you love is in need of physical therapy Dresher PT is the spot to be.

Dresher PT is a perfect family atmosphere providing excellent treatment and support. I recently received care in the Blue Bell office where Christine (front desk), Chris, Russ, Jeff, Mike and Matt make a great team. This was not my first time going to Dresher PT and I could not recommend them more. Thank you! Jenn K.

I'd been to physical therapy before but never felt any real progress after several months. I decided to try Dresher in Blue Bell and have been very impressed with my progress in only several weeks. Mike C has taught me the need, and the correct way, to do stretching exercises BEFORE moving on to strengthening exercises. The results have been truly remarkable. I'm only 3 weeks into my work but, for the first time in several years, I no longer have low back pain and actually look forward to my sessions. That's a first for me. I credit Mike for helping me work hard and enjoying the work!

I’ve been going to Dresher PT ever since they opened up in the George’s shopping center in Dresher. They are the BEST! Most recently I saw Chris in Blue Bell for a knee injury. He was patient with me while I regained my confidence in my knee, and continued to motivate and encourage me to do things I didn’t think I was capable of. He keeps up with the latest in physical therapy advancements and always kept sessions interesting so I didn’t get bored. On top of the technical stuff, he is a genuinely nice person and a pleasure to be around! I would *highly* recommend him and Dresher PT!!!

This past December I returned to Dresher Physical Therapy (Blue Bell Office) for rehab after my second knee replacement. I did so primarily to work with Mike Dellapena, although from what I have observed, everyone who works at Dresher PT shares the same passion for their job. Mike is excellent to work with. Very knowledgeable and personable, he approaches rehab as a team effort. Before each session he makes sure to find out how you are doing, and if anything has changed since the last session. He works closely with you with the exercise regime that he has personally tailored to your needs and will offer suggestions, as well as encouragement, throughout the session.
I had received recommendations for other physical therapy businesses in this area, and after attending a Knee Pain Workshop that Dresher PT hosted, I was impressed with the welcoming and knowledgeable staff and am really glad I put my physical therapy in their hands.

It’s been 1 week since my last appointment and I’m happy to say my shoulder and neck are improving steadily. Mike at Dresher is doing a great job and has me doing daily exercises that have me improving and moving forward. I highly recommend them for your PT needs now and in the future. Good luck. Km.

P.T. at Dresher with Michael D. is the most positive approach I have to help my husband Rich with his Parkinsons. It eliminates my nagging him to exercise at home- he loves working with Mike & hopes to continue indefinitely. I also had a positive experience with Michael D. working with my arthritic knee

I had a wonderful experience at this Dresher in Blue Bell. I went twice a week for two months and saw Mike Dellapena for all my visits and was helped by Jeff on numerous occasions! Mike is very knowledgeable and kind and I felt like I was in good hands during the process. Christine was super helpful when I went in for my initial visit and remembered me every time after that! Definitely a wonderful place and I would recommend it in the future!

Only started a couple weeks back. PT is very knowledgeable. Hoping this works for me, but if not, it will not be thier fault.

I was suffering from pain in my lumber spine area. Rothman Ortho., suggested that I should try doing physical therapy… I was looking for an appointment ASAP and called Dresher PT when Christine K. at the Bluebell office fit me in quickly. On my first visit, Michael Orzechowski did a comprehensive evaluation of my pain and designed a complete PT treatment plan with written instructions. Michael is a kind, friendly, knowledgeable and an excellent physical therapist. It was easy to practice the exercise routine at home. I’ve had only two PT sessions so far and I’m feeling good. I am happy that I called Dresher PT; I would recommend Dresher PT to anyone!

Update August 2023

My doctor recommended PT for pain and stiffness from arthritis and having had a positive experience in 2022 I returned. All of the staff, from my main therapist Matt, other therapists Russell, Pam and Mike,, personal trainer Jeff, and administrative staff were professional, skilled, positive and encouraging. My experience was that of a true partnership as I learned that I need to keep up with the exercises at home. It’s a good feeling to know that I can reach out with any concerns following my treatment.

Dresher PT clinicians treat people of all ages and with varying fitness levels. Everyone, not just myself are guided to ever increasing functioning and less pain. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone whose physician is prescribing PT.

I had a wonderful experience at Dresher Physical Therapy in Blue Bell where I was treated for neck pain and decreased range of motion. My therapist and her assistant Carrie and Jeff explained the exercises and made sure that I was doing them correctly. I received gentle massage of my neck and shoulders which helped my pain. My overall functioning improved significantly. Everyone at this facility was kind and professional.

Mike O., with Dresher Physical Therapy is great and knows what he’s doing. He helped me recover from a knee injury five years ago and is currently assisting me after hip surgery. It’s only about two weeks since my surgery and I am already feeling more like myself after only three sessions.

I’ve worked with very professional, caring therapist at Dresher PT: Chris, Russ, Tom and Matt who work diligently to eliminate your pain and provide at home exercises that increase your recovery!
Also… a shout out to Jeff, a PT assistant at the Blue Bell location , he is extremely knowledgeable, encourages you with expertise, care and humor and is an asset to all of the Physical Therapist I’ve worked with!
I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

The staff are incredibly compassionate, experienced and thorough. Mike O. is one of the best in the business. Highly recommend this company!

I like the experienced staff. The new Director, Michael Orzo , lol, is always upbeat and knows exactly what I need. I followed Mike from the Fort Washington DPT as trust is important to me. The Blue Bell location is smaller but completely adequate. I do miss the gang at FW. Both locations are excellent!

Great place with knowledgable theerapists.

Mike O. is a great Physical Therapist. His direction is really helping me recover from a serious injury and the follow up surgery.

Great therapists and great atmosphere
