Anthem Blue Cross+5 moreMy name is Arek. I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in orthopedic and sports-related injuries, with experience working with both active individuals and high-level athletes. I earned my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Southern California in 2020 and completed advanced orthopedic (2022) and sports (2024) physical therapy residencies through Adventist Health Glendale. My approach focuses on identifying the why behind your pain and creating a highly individualized plan to help you move better, feel stronger, and return to the activities you enjoy. I value clear communication, hands-on care, and progressive exercise, and I believe physical therapy should be collaborative, empowering, and tailored to you, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

MedicareSelf-Pay / HSA/FSAI'm a physical therapist in practice since 2007 in diverse patient care settings. After graduating with a doctorate in physical therapy from Rockhurst University, I established solid clinical experience at the outpatient clinic of a trauma level 1 county hospital for 4 years. There I rotated annually through inpatient floors to assist in the ICU and cardiac care units, allowing a depth of understanding for the spectrum of patients needs from acute illness to home. From there, I dove further into work with under-served communities and moved with my family to the Dominican Republic. I worked collaboratively on curriculum revision and taught physical therapy at the local university, researched, provided clinical education and treated a wide variety of patients for 7 years. Now back in the US since 2018, I'm happy to bring my rich experience and bilingual Spanish skill set to treat patients in their homes and community settings. I am a certified clinical instructor and bring a deep concern for my patient's well-being to my care.

Looking for a physical therapist for hip pain near Monrovia? HealthSpark connects patients in Monrovia with licensed physical therapists who come to their home for outpatient physical therapy, covered by Medicare Part B and major insurers. No homebound requirement.
What is hip pain?
Hip pain can originate from the joint itself, the surrounding muscles and tendons, or the lower back. Common conditions include hip bursitis (trochanteric pain syndrome), labral tears, hip flexor tendinopathy, osteoarthritis, and piriformis syndrome. Because the hip connects the upper and lower body, dysfunction here often affects the back, knee, and overall gait.
Common symptoms
- Pain on the outside of the hip
- Groin pain with movement
- Stiffness after sitting or in the morning
- Pain when walking or climbing stairs
- Difficulty crossing legs or putting on shoes
- Clicking or catching in the joint
- Pain that disrupts sleep
- Limping or altered gait
What causes hip pain?
Hip pain commonly results from muscle imbalances, prolonged sitting, overuse from running or walking, and age-related changes like osteoarthritis. Weak glute muscles and tight hip flexors are frequent contributors. Falls, repetitive movements, and structural factors like leg length differences can also play a role.
How home visits help with hip pain
Evaluation at home.The first visit is a full evaluation in the patient's home. The physical therapist asks about the history and goals, watches how the patient moves in the rooms they live in, and builds a plan of care.
Treatment where it happens. Visits follow that plan: hands-on treatment where it helps, and exercises taught with the furniture, stairs, and floors the patient uses every day.
The doctor stays in the loop.The plan of care goes to the patient's doctor, with progress notes as therapy continues, and follow-up visits run until the goals in the plan are met.
Frequently asked questions

Yes. 2 of our licensed physical therapists who treat hip pain visit homes in Monrovia, along with nearby Duarte, Arcadia, and Sierra Madre. Visits are outpatient physical therapy, covered by Medicare Part B and major insurers, with no homebound requirement.
Do I need a hip replacement?
Most hip pain does not require surgery. Physical therapy is recommended as a first-line treatment, even for arthritis.
Is this covered by insurance?
Yes. Spark is in-network with Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, and more.
Is in-home physical therapy covered by Medicare?
Yes. In-home visits are covered by Medicare Part B. We're also in-network with Blue Shield, Anthem, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Humana, and other major plans, and we verify your benefits before the first visit so there are no surprise costs.
Will I see the same physical therapist each visit?
Yes. You're matched with a licensed physical therapist for your evaluation and every follow-up visit on the same plan of care.
Do you visit homes in Monrovia?
Yes. Our physical therapists visit homes in Monrovia and across greater Los Angeles, within about a 20-minute drive of where they're based. The best way to check your address is to get started and enter your ZIP code.
Is this the same as home health?
No. This is outpatient physical therapy that happens in your home, covered by Medicare Part B. Home health is a different Medicare benefit for people who are homebound, and it usually comes with nursing and other services. You don't need to be homebound to see us.
Can I see you while I'm getting home health care?
Not at the same time. Medicare doesn't cover outpatient Part B therapy while you're in a home health episode. Once your home health care ends, we can start. If you're not sure, ask us and we'll check.
Do I get to choose my physical therapist?
Yes. We have physical therapists across greater Los Angeles. You can learn about each one and request a visit with the one you want.
Do you accept my supplement plan?
Yes, we accept most Medicare supplement and secondary plans. When you book, we check your coverage in real time.
I've already reached the Medicare therapy limit. Can I still be seen?
Yes. Medicare covers therapy past that amount when it's medically necessary. Your physical therapist's evaluation and work with your doctor decide whether your care qualifies.
Can I pay cash?
For services Medicare doesn't cover, like wellness and fitness sessions, yes. Your physical therapist can talk through what that looks like, and we'll ask you to sign a Medicare notice (an ABN) before any service Medicare may not pay for.
Can you work with my family member or caregiver?
Yes. Your family member or caregiver can coordinate your care and be our go-to person. They can book for you on our page for caregivers.
