GWOG's
Physical and Hand Therapy Services

Lori A. Mendoza, DScPT, PT–Director

The physical therapists and hand therapists at GWOG are committed to providing only the highest quality of care to our patients. Our dedicated therapists utilize only state-of-the-art equipment and the most innovative techniques to decrease pain and to reach the goals that are necessary to return the patient to a comfortable level of activity at home, work, and in recreational pursuits.

Most people now lead longer, more active lives, a fact which can lead to more incidents of injury and disease. Our mission is not only to rehabilitate the patient, but also to teach the patient how to prevent future, or recurrent injuries. Prevention and early intervention are essential to maintaining and/or regaining a high level of strength and independence in all daily activities. Our therapists average over 10 years of orthopaedic experience, and, in addition to holding advanced degrees from top universities, continue to pursue education and training in the areas of sports injuries and rehabilitation, hand therapy, special concerns of women, exercise and strengthening techniques, as well as post-surgical rehabilitation.

Our therapy departments offer extended hours to accommodate working schedules. Therapy is most effective when given with regularity, therefore, as a patient you will be able to have continuous and consistent treatments. GWOG patients usually find that their therapy treatments are a pleasant and soothing experience that they can look forward to and enjoy.
