"I arrived with sciatica pain 4 weeks ago, and Dr. Ung immediately knew a plan that would properly diagnose and treat. The exercise plan was gradual but very effective with the added dry needling and heating. My sciatica pain and lower back has felt the best it had all year, and now I can roll in to 2026 with a healthy start."
"Okay, so, a long time ago in August 2025, I woke up with excruciating neck pain. I was unable to turn my head and sleeping it off didn’t fix the issue. I went to UMG Urgent Care (also an amazing experience) and Stephanie told me that I would benefit from physical therapy to work through the neck pain. She recommended the physical therapy they had on site, and the rest is history.I cannot emphasize this enough; if there is an even an inkling that you might need physical therapy, please go to UMG Physical Therapy. Jeffery and Kevin are both so kind, funny, knowledgeable, and really help you work through and understand what’s causing the pain and how their exercises will help resolve the issue. Also, did you know that flat-footedness is fixable? No? Just me? Well, I learned that while I was here!I originally went in for neck pain, and then went to them for knee strength training so I was there for a good, long while. And let me tell you, I am not an early bird whatsoever. But the environment and staff are so amazing that I was always happy and ready to go to my morning sessions that I attended *before* work— that’s how great they are. And the routines they teach you really make a difference; if my neck or legs start acting up, I do the stretches and I’m good to go!Kevin and Jeffery are both super easy to talk to and they really pay attention to the patients on both the medical side and the personal side. They’d ask followup questions about my weekend outings or physical discomfort I had been experiencing the week prior. Considering that I was doing new stretches in front of essentially strangers every week, they make you feel right at home as you do it.TL;DR: if you e v e r need to go to Physical Therapy, no question, you have to go here. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️"
"Awesome Experience - Kevin and Jeffery are, in my opinion, the best physical therapists in Maryland. They truly care about how you feel and take the time to understand exactly where your pain is. I also love that they spend quality time with you during each visit and stay focused on helping you feel better."
"Kevin and Jeffery are the best! Came in for upper back pain and they were so thorough with their regimen and plan to get me better. They were flexible and extremely easy to work with. Made coming to PT fun! I left definitely feeling better than when I came and I would recommend them to anyone who needs PT! 😌"
"Kevin and Jeffery are the most amazing physical therapists! They are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely fun people to be around. For the three months I was there, they helped me through various exercise plans and explained everything clearly and in depth every step of the way. I am so happy I ended up at their clinic and highly recommend UMG Physical Therapy. They’re the best!!"
"I came in for upper back pain that I had been dealing with for a couple of months. Jeffery and Kevin were amazing from day one—knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring. My therapist, Jeff, created a personalized treatment plan that focused on posture correction, strengthening, and mobility. Within just a few sessions, my pain was gone and I felt noticeably stronger. They also provided an excellent home exercise program that I can continue using on my own. I highly recommend this clinic—they truly rock!"
"On Tuesday, I woke up with a crick in my neck after sleeping wrong on it and through the day it got progressively worse - I had to keep my neck tilted to the right (ear to shoulder) because it was 10/10 pain tilting it to the left or holding it straight. Was thinking Wednesday it was going to get better but it actually got even worse. Just sitting in a car trying to stabilize my neck with turns and bumps in the road was causing sharp jabs of pain in my neck.Went to see Jeffery and Kevin on Thursday and they did a quick diagnosis and began massaging my neck, shoulders and back which provided immediate relief to the pain. Jeffery has miracle hands. They had me do some compound stretches involving multiple muscle groups and strengthening exercises to give me ways to strengthen my back, shoulders, and neck for preventive exercises. For each exercise and stretch, they explained what was being accomplished and why. That really helped me understand how I got into the neck pain and how to prevent it in the future.Lastly, the billing process/dealing with insurance was seamless with them and went without a hitch - that has always been a sore spot for me in dealing with medical stuff - not so with UMG!Jeffery and Kevin provided professional and personalized care that you won't get at the chain physical therapy spots trying to get you in-and-out. I highly recommend seeing them for any acute pain or longstanding issues! I've had back and shoulder issues in the past and have also started to see them to get those addressed so I don't tweak my back in the future!"
"I had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Kevin Ung and Jeffrey for physical therapy today. The clinic is spacious, clean, and well-maintained, which immediately set a positive tone. Both Dr. Ung and Jeffrey were incredibly professional and made sure I felt well taken care of. They really emphasized their dedication to helping me feel better, and I appreciated how attentive and focused they were on my needs. I had an amazing experience. I was truly impress with their knowledge and expertise in rehabilitating muscle groups. They made me feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire process. I highly recommend their services if you’re looking for a knowledgeable and caring team."
"Highly recommend this place!!!! - I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Kevin Ung and Jeffrey today, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The facility was spacious, clean, and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable right away. Dr. Kevin and Jeffrey were both extremely attentive, taking the time to listen to my concerns and addressing them with care and professionalism. They really made me feel at ease and significantly improved my well-being. Highly recommend their services!"
"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!"
"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 "
