Scor Physical Therapy

This is my second go around. Completely different body part too. Both rehabs were lengthy. The Therapist, assistance and staff are incredibly knowledgable, helpful and professional. They made me feel like family and kept me motivated in my long rehabilitations. I highly recommend this facility for any of your physical ailments.

I started coming before my surgery and it really helped me prepare physically as well as mentally. Everyone is friendly and makes a point to get to know you. It’s a clean environment and I always look forward to my next appointment!

I’ve had a lot of PT experience, but Scor is DEFINITELY the one place I WOULD GO back. After receiving a cortisone shot in my hip that did not help, I ended up in physical therapy. Scheduling appointments with the front desk was an easy task and were able to work with my schedule. The women at the front desk always greeted me with a smile; the PT assistant/​PT always welcomed me with a smile as well. The atmosphere was caring with a sense of personality, and professionalism. Each PT took the time to get to know me and my condition; if I had meet with a different PT, we would see if my condition was improving and what we could do to make my hip stronger. They made sure I was comfortable with my exercises, and if I was not, we would rest and try again or another day. I truly appreciate the work they have done to get me walking normal again. On days that I felt week, they were always able to bring me back up; they all have such a natural positive energy! The massage therapists work wonders as well. They understand where you need work and help calm the muscles that are causing more tension and discomfort. Their intelligence and understanding of the human body has definitively proven their experience and knowledge. I would highly recommend Scor to anyone that is in need of some PT help!

My family and I are regulars here. Being active and having high school athletes, it’s important to have a place like SCOR in San Clemente. From the front desk through the entire process, they are great, caring and committed to the healing process. Having busy schedules has never stopped from being able to get appointments when I needed them. Being a weekend warrior I like knowing I’ll be back on a field or court in no time.
Having boys who play sports year ’round, it’s great to have trusted therapists who know how to balance treatment and speedy recovery. They handle the youths like family but never put the future in jeopardy with incomplete treatments.
They help handle physician interaction when needed which is also greatly appreciated.
Thanks to Dan and his staff for taking care of my family!!!

Went to this place in the fall 2011 with reversed neck curve and upper back pains. We recently moved to OC from San Francisco and I did not know where to go for physical therapy. This being rather complex problem, I requested to see one of the owners, Daniel Souza, who has a Doctorate in PT. The exercises that were prescribed (as it turned out later) were the exact opposite of what one should be doing with reversed neck curve and general flattening of back curves. Such exercises do strengthen the upper back but also lead to further flattening of the mid back curve and, as a result, further reversal of the neck curve and MORE pain. I was also shoved to an assistant, which I find unacceptable at $ 90/​hour per session. Unfortunately, CA regulations allow the physical therapy to be performed by a person with no education as long a licensed PT is present on the premises. SCOR takes full advantage of this fact. I left the therapy few weeks later with increasing pains which continued until I found a specialist who was able to formulate a full diagnosis and prescribe correct exercises, which could be carried out at home. General lack of competency, lack of compassion, lack of any interest in getting the person better is all I can say about SCOR and Daniel in particular.

I have been a patient of score since mid March I had a serious injury to my right shoulder complete tear of the rotator cuff I have found the all the assistance and the physical therapist to be extremely good very motivating very kind considerate and a big help I don’t know why these people are so negative in their testimonies of this place I have found nothing but kindness and considerate people working here they have all been extremely encouraging and I am very happy with my results I went from not being able to raise my arm to being able to raise it above my head I am very grateful to the staff and all the people at score physical therapy you are all wonderful and I’m glad that this is the place I chose to go to for my recovery. These people are all caring professionals with a passion to help people move and I want to thank them all very much for all their hard work.

This is the type of PT office you stay far away from if you want solid care. They have more assistants then actual physical therapists, and the assistants are sub par at best, watching TV, and gossiping amongst themselves and clients a true lack of professionalism. I witnessed mistakes being made due to assistants not listening to instructions. Truly an unorganized mess. Go to a PT office where the the therapists do the treatments, not simply handing you off to an assistant after 10 minutes of work on a patient. I have heard from various former SCOR clients about having the same experience; so I decided to comment knowing I was not alone. I never comment on Unilocal in the negative but this group sadly deserves it. They truly need to reorganize their treatment protocol as there are many good PT groups around town and fortunately easy to find.
