Dr. Mariel Hammond is very knowledgeable, caring, and committed to her practice. She does a great job explaining her approach, allowing you to get the most out of your PT sessions.

Dr. Mariel Hammond is awesome. I came in with bad intermittent hip pain going on for the better part of the last decade. I’ve seen a number of insurance-based PTs over the years and not only does that service model fail but I’ve never gotten anything other than generic exercises that aren’t really tailored to an identified problem. Mariel takes a really systematic approach to tackle the complex issues that result in my pain and in ways not explored by others. She also doesn’t BS or put on a show. She’s clearly confident in her knowledge and expertise. For the first time in a while I feel better, have been making gains, and have been able to increase my activities without the normal routine-busting pain that inevitably presents itself. Really enjoyable experience over there. Highly recommend.

Mariel has helped me find my glutes! I have had an existing right knew issue for a long time and before coming to Zenith and Mariel. Since the very first day I have been blown away by the professional help and knowledge! Great homework exercises and demonstrations for proper form has helped my knee feel normal again. Mariel is extremely personable and fun while still maintaining that professional material to hone in on issue areas. I will be recommending Zenith and especially Mariel, to anyone and everyone looking for a physical therapist!

Mariel is by far the best PT I have ever seen. Mariel’s background with PRI creates a holistic approach getting to the root of the problem and providing a great, easy to follow, treatment plan.

I'm really happy that I found this place. I love that they take the time to get to know your history and your goals for training before you even come in for your first session. It's a great environment with really positive energy. Mike and Jesse are wonderful. They are both so knowledgeable, helpful and welcoming. I'm really excited to have their guidance and see how much I can improve over the next few months.

I can't recommend Mariel enough! She is incredibly kind, patient, and thorough-- truly the best PT I've ever had. She takes the time to explain the biomechanics behind my injuries and how each exercise or technique would help. Mariel is really flexible and intuitive. If something didn't quite work for my body, she always had an alternative ready. She listens, adapts, and genuinely cares about your progress and really tailors your treatment to your personal goals/lifestyle. She also makes herself available outside of sessions in case something goes wrong when doing the regimens on our own which was so helpful. Mariel is also just so easy to talk to-- I genuinely looked forward to my PT sessions! When I first came in, I couldn't run due to a hip and ankle injury and now thanks to her, I'm running pain-free and am stronger and more mobile than I was pre-injuries! Would give her/Zenith 10 stars if I could.
