Shoulder and Elbow Surgery
Our board-certified surgeons specialize in advanced procedures for shoulder and elbow conditions, including rotator cuff repairs, joint replacements, and fracture treatments. Using minimally invasive techniques, we aim to restore mobility and reduce recovery times. Patients benefit from personalized surgical planning and post-operative rehabilitation support.
Physical Therapy
Comprehensive physical therapy programs address post-surgical recovery, sports injuries, and chronic pain management. Our licensed therapists create individualized exercise regimens to improve strength, flexibility, and functional mobility. Treatment incorporates evidence-based modalities like manual therapy and therapeutic ultrasound for optimal outcomes.
Sports Medicine
We diagnose and treat sports-related injuries including ligament tears, tendonitis, and stress fractures. Our approach combines conservative treatments like bracing and injections with surgical interventions when necessary. Athletes receive sport-specific rehabilitation to safely return to competition at their peak performance level.
Hand Therapy
Certified hand therapists provide targeted rehabilitation for carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon injuries, and post-fracture recovery. Custom splinting, scar management, and fine motor skill exercises help patients regain dexterity and hand function following trauma or surgery.
General Orthopaedics
Our practice addresses a wide range of musculoskeletal issues including arthritis, back pain, and joint disorders. Non-surgical options like corticosteroid injections and physical therapy are prioritized, with surgical referrals made when conservative treatments prove insufficient for pain relief and mobility improvement.

Dr. Raizman is a good doctor but his staff is not the best. His coordinator is slow and doesn't understand how to deal with people and their employers. Because of this office I was terminated" they wouldn't sign my work documents until after surgery". Which led to my employer not having enough information to why I'm off. I had to prove my innocents to get my job back. It took 15 months. After I straightened everything out I explained to them they had to resubmit all the documents to my insurance.
Which they said they did. After it's all said and done I receive a call from collections stating I owe them over seven thousand dollars. This has really been a terrible experience. I think the coordinator should have a job where she isn't planning anything. She has personal issues in her life and it henders her from doing her job efficiently. She also couldn't schedule my surgery correctly. Made too many mistakes to be in this field.
Now I have to figure out what's going on after the surgery, losing my job, not able to get disability, had to go on unemployment. Only to get a call that I still owe them. Terrible she should be fired.

I thought I'd go there because they have a PT who has experience working with dancers, but I'm beyond underwhelmed. Shuffled into an exam room that looks like a call center with tables. PT (Tiernan) doesn't appear to have experience working with dancers, barely talks to you, barely looks at you, shows you 20-seconds of exercises then returns to paperwork or talking to other patients. Seems to have little confidence in her work, little compassion, little engagement. What she offers you could find in a book. Not addressing your issues because she doesn't care about you. Doesn't even say goodbye when you leave.

Can't say enough good things about the care and treatment I received from the highly professional PT team - Tiernan, Michael, and Ariel. High and positive energy, which kept me motivated! Don't think I ever enjoyed going to PT as much as I did thanks to this crew. Tiernan was very methodical, patient, and explained everything well. And it was a team effort thanks to Michael and Ariel! Thank you for rehabilitating my shoulder gang!

Avoid this place. I went to two appointments. Very little help. I am also being billed over and over again after my insurance already paid them and they admitted that on a three way call with my insurance. They just keep resending me the same bill, which will hit my credit. That is not legal and I am reporting this doctor to the better business bureau. You can't bill someone after it was paid by insurance. Even Aetna Insurance was shocked that they were doing this.

One would be hard-pressed to find a more caring, wholistic, and empathetic physical therapy practice in DC. I was referred to Tiernan Damas after my ankle surgery and have been blown away by the care I've received. Recovery is rarely fun but I look forward to PT because Tiernan is so engaging, transparent about what to expect, and responsive when I'm in pain. With Tiernan as your physical therapist, you can look forward to an uplifting, gently challenging, and healing experience.

Dr. Raizman and his assistant have been fantastic at assisting me and my needs professionally and promptly! However, there is a blonde receptionist (wish I caught her name) at the front desk that has given both myself and my father a nasty attitude and unpleasant experience on multiple occasions. She refuses to listen to either of us when communicating with her and it is beyond frustrating.

Be ready to wait more than an hour past your appointment time despite showing up early and the waiting room will be packed because they over schedule patients at a time when dc is seeing record covid cases.
