I had an outstanding experience with MedStar Health Home Care. I would highly recommend them to all my friends and family! Following my total knee replacement, they came to my home for two weeks and got me back on my feet, and did so with compassion, professionalism and tremendous expertise. Both Jen and Matt were awesome!!

Megan Lipsett was a joy to work with. She had a beautiful way of balancing compassion with challenge. With her help I was able to progress smoothly from being in pain and completely non-weight bearing to walking with a shoe and a cane! She answered all of my questions clearly and thoroughly so I could more fully understand the steps of my recovery. I am so grateful for her skilled and caring help.
