Dr. Kevin Ung is a dedicated physical therapist committed to enhancing his patients' quality of life through personalized care. His interest in physical therapy began at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. A leg fracture that left him wheelchair-bound for two months before physical therapy school gave him unique insight and empathy for those undergoing rehabilitation. Driven by this experience and a passion for helping patients achieve their health goals, Dr. Ung pursued a career in physical therapy, co-founding UMG Physical Therapy with his colleague and family member, Jeffery Ung, PTA. Together, they are focused on creating individualized care plans that support each patient’s recovery and improved function.
Dr. Ung completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2010. Motivated by personal experience and a desire to support others in recovery, he earned his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Hampton University in 2017. He has continued to expand his skills through certifications and specialized training. Dr. Ung is certified in dry needling and has advanced training in techniques such as myofascial release, Mulligan and Maitland mobilization methods, and runner’s rehabilitation.
Dr. Ung’s professional skills include thorough patient evaluation, customized treatment planning, and hands-on manual therapy for musculoskeletal issues. He is skilled in therapeutic exercise programs, postural and movement analysis, and pain management strategies, allowing him to create highly individualized care plans. His clinical experience covers post-surgical recovery, neurological disorders, orthopedic injuries, geriatric care, and sports-related conditions. With a particular focus on athletes, he is dedicated to helping them achieve peak performance through evidence-based practices that build resilience, reduce the risk of re-injury, and improve function. Dr. Ung also has extensive leadership experience, having held clinical and administrative roles in hospital care, skilled nursing facilities, and outpatient clinics, where he collaborated closely with other healthcare providers to deliver comprehensive patient care.
Outside work, Dr. Ung enjoys hiking, exploring the outdoors, and spending quality time with family and friends. He also likes to take on new hobbies that challenge him and bring fresh experiences. As the co-founder of UMG Physical Therapy, he remains dedicated to advancing patient care and supporting his community's well-being.
Highly recommend - I’m so grateful for Dr. Ung for helping my mom with her chronic knee pain. Despite the language barrier, he found a way to communicate clearly and make sure my mom understood what to do. He was patient with her and really made her feel comfortable. My mom’s pain has improved and she’s moving around much better now!
Awesome and will come back! - Dr. Ung treated me for my lower back pain and sciatica multiple times! I left with with way less pain and was able to walk and play sports again. Thank You
Excellent! - My mom arms has been in pain for some time. Kevin was able to diagnose the problem and help with a treatment plan. Kevin has great bedside manners and is great at what he does! Would really recommend!!
Forever Grateful for Dr. Ung - My mother suffered a brain hemorrhage and all feelings and control of her left side were gone. She underwent a successful craniotomy and we were told the road to recovery would be tough. It was disheartening as my mother needed full help to even shift in her bed, to be held while sitting so she wouldn’t topple over, and she needed two people to lift her to use the bedside commode. Literally, she couldn’t lift a finger (her left side) and due to neurological issues caused by the hemorrhage, this affected her right side as well.In less than two months of working with my mother, Dr. Ung and other PT & OT helped my mother to become semi-independent. She was able to use a walker, walking short distances safely, and to take care of her basic needs, like using the toilet with little assistance. Dr. Ung was patient and compassionate and explained everything as he went along. It was truly amazing to see him work with my mother and the transformation was like magic! Thank you so much, Dr. Ung!
