Wow! Pain free - first time in about three years. I hurt my back at work. Went to two rounds of PT at Spaulding, but it never worked. I felt like I was destined to live the pain. I also tried acupuncture and massage - nothing worked. At some point I realized I had to give PT another shot. I went here based upon yelp reviews. Debbie is amazing. She said "I know what's wrong with you" and mentioned a muscle I had never heard of. I was pain free a few hours after my first visit. Pain free. If you are looking for PT that works - I highly recommend Cambridge PT & Sports Medicine.

I have had my share of physical therapists (double ACL reconstruction and microdisectomies)... Tore my ACL in February 2014 -- knew it, had pre-PT here and the staff was really supportive about gaining quad strength. Had the surgery in April 2014 and came back here for post-surgery PT. Debbie made me do everything and sent me home with exercises every time. Debbie is COMMITTED to each patient she sees. She knows her stuff. Really. The one-on-one appointment with Debbie makes you feel comfortable because 1) you know she focused on you and 2) she will chit chat with you. Dr. Roncarati is straightforward -- will tell you like it is. Yes, I'm still doing those straight-leg... read full review

This place is really excellent despite its modest appearance. I decided to give it a try after Harvard Vanguard (where I am a patient) did nothing to improve my "tennis elbow" after many disappointing treatments. I finally had to get a steroid shot, which worked for a while, but then stopped working, and I was told that this is probably chronic. It was a huge ordeal to get an outside referral, when one is a patient at Harvard Vanguard, but it was completely worth it. It did take a lot of sessions with Debbie (thankfully, fully covered by insurance), and it completely improved afterwards! I realized that many injuries doomed "chronic" could really be... read full review
