“I
joined Commonwealth in October 2005. It seemed to be a good way to further
my career, as well as a chance to develop new skills. I have stayed because
I have indeed learned new skills, and I have taken the opportunity to further
my education.”

“I am very proud to be part of the best orthopaedic group in the Northern Virginia. As an employee I have experienced and shared the wealth of their knowledge and expertise in all aspects of orthopaedics, physical therapy and management.
As manager of the Alexandria physical therapy clinic I am impressed by the physicians’ support and vision for development of our patient care.”

“I, like several of the physical therapists at Commonwealth, started working here years ago as a physical therapy aide. I tried working as a therapist in other environments and what I have found is that the atmosphere at Commonwealth truly allows for quality care. The people that work here really care about one another and create a wonderful team for patient treatment and a great place to come to work each day.”
