MHC was founded in 1987 by Dr. Semyon Friedman, while working as a researcher and a chemical engineering professor at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Friedman opened the first MHC physical therapy clinic in his Baltimore-area community to meet the needs of an underserved group of new refugees, who needed treatment following an injury.
Dr. Friedman quickly saw the importance of this type of treatment facility for all segments of the population and continued to open more clinics in the region. Today, MHC has more than 90 clinics in Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C., Delaware, New Jersey and Florida. Every MHC clinic is overseen by a team of qualified medical doctors, physical therapy professionals, and a healthcare management team, utilizing the latest in healthcare technology.

MHC founder Dr. Semyon Friedman and his wife Janna, as Holocaust survivors, are committed to creating awareness and honoring the memories of those who perished. After learning about the low public knowledge of the Holocaust, Dr. Friedman and his daughter Julia Peremel launched a partnership with the USHMM to offer free, private guided tours to employees, their families, and law firms. As part of this program, MHC provides transportation to and from the museum and lunch for participants.
Protecting the environment is a core value of MHC, which operates as a Green company. We understand the importance of maintaining and supporting the surrounding environment, with a focus on restoring and protecting the Chesapeake Bay. MHC has partnered with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation to make a $100 donation in a law firm's name when they pledge to "Go Green" by receiving all patient documents via MHC's HIPAA compliant portal.
