I've been a patient at Hand Rehabilitation Specialists in Thousand Oaks twice—first in 2016 for a traumatic arm injury, and again in 2024 after breaking my wrist. Both times, the care was outstanding. Adrienne was especially amazing. After my first injury, I wasn’t sure how much movement I’d regain, but with her help, I recovered strength and mobility far beyond what I expected. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely cares about your recovery. When I returned years later for a different injury, I knew I was in great hands again. The whole team is professional, supportive, and focused on helping you heal. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for expert hand and upper extremity rehab!

Staffed with highly professional therapists and very kind and understanding front office personnel, Hand Rehabilitation Specialist was the perfect fit for me to rehab and recover from hand surgery. All of the staff was very encouraging and upbeat as they carefully guided me though my recovery. I truly looked forward to each appointment, not only for the hands-on therapy, but also to spend quality time with the staff, who focus on the physical and emotional recovery of each patient that walked through the door. Thank you so much.

The whole team here is quite exceptional. From the front desk with Julie & all the occupational therapists & physical therapists, you will get the help you need with great results! Adrienne not only helped me reach my goals to get movement back in my finger & hand , she did it with such joy & attention to my well being. It is a happy place!

I was referred to Hand Rehabilitation Specialists for tennis elbow in both elbows. Using my arms to lift anything was incredibly painful. it took a few months but my tendons are now healed. The quality of care at HRS is five star. They take time with you and teach you how to do the same rehabilitation exercises at home. great people!

I received a recommendation from my orthopedic surgeon, and that recommendation was spot on. Adriane was my therapist and her warm and friendly demeanor along with her knowledge of all things involving hand therapy, was the reason after a couple of months, I was able to go back to work and I am feeling almost 100%. I highly recommend Hand Rehabilitation Specialists.
