Patient Stories

Real Patients. Real Progress.

Two patients describe, in their own words, what treatment at Curated Physical Therapy & Performance was actually like. Both came in with a torn rotator cuff.

Playing the viola again after a rotator cuff tear

Evan Wilson · Concert violist · 1:24

Evan is a professional violist who played first viola with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony. He slipped on ice and tore a rotator cuff. In this video he describes choosing Curated PT, and what the treatment approach was like.

“He dissected things. He made a plan. He told me what we were going to do.”

He describes that after two visits he had fifteen minutes free of pain for the first time in about four years, and that he can now hold the viola higher than when he started.

After months of trying to fix it himself

Elon Sassoon · Real estate developer, Boston · 0:57

Elon tore his rotator cuff in November. He describes spending months trying to rehabilitate it on his own and training with a trainer three times a week without it healing, then looking for medical help.

“I’m 80% healed. I have lots of motion now. Good range. I continue to work with him until I get it 100%.”

He says he was about to begin physical therapy at a hospital before deciding to come to Curated PT instead.

I booked the free performance and pain assessment not expecting much, but it was the most in depth screen I have ever had. Suren found the root cause of an issue that had been holding back my golf swing and gave me simple steps that made an instant difference.

I started in Dedham for hip pain that kept creeping back during squats. The plan was super clear, and the one on one sessions made it easy to stay consistent. I feel stronger and more confident every week.

Dr. Azizian worked with my five year old son after he fractured his leg. He was amazing. Came to our house and helped us learn techniques to do on our own. Extremely knowledgeable and kind. My son loved him and improved quickly.

I went to the Needham location for shoulder pain that was limiting presses and pull ups. The sessions were focused, the cues were spot on, and I finally had a plan that made sense instead of guessing.

Suren is an excellent physical therapist. I had a bad left hip and a very tight right hamstring. Through exercises, hands on work, and dry needling, Suren helped resolve my pain and gave me tools to keep it from coming back.

I was skeptical after trying traditional PT, but this felt completely different. In Dedham, we built strength around my back issue instead of avoiding movement. It actually translated to real life and training.

Exceptional physical therapy experience. After struggling with persistent knee pain that doctors could not diagnose, Suren identified the root cause and developed a personalized plan. The improvement over a short period of time was remarkable.

The Dedham space feels like a training environment, which I loved. Everything was focused on getting me back to lifting with confidence, not just doing random rehab exercises.
