Dominick is a physical therapist, currently practicing at our Park Slope location. Dominick earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Ithaca College, following the completion of his bachelor’s degree in clinical health studies from the same institution. His interest in physical therapy was sparked during his senior year of high school when he suffered a shoulder injury. During his time at Ithaca, he actively participated in club basketball and engaged in research, particularly focusing on Little League Elbow and Tommy John Surgery. 

Throughout his career, Dominick has treated a diverse range of patients, including those recovering from post-operative procedures and sports-related injuries. He has gained invaluable experience working throughout the greater New York Area, including Manhattan, Queens, and Long Island. His clientele includes executives from Fortune 500 companies, actors, and former professional/collegiate athletes. 

What Dominick values most about being a physical therapist is the opportunity to make a positive impact on people’s lives. He finds immense satisfaction in helping individuals feel better and enhancing their daily functionality, ultimately contributing to their overall well-being. To continually improve his ability to provide exceptional care, Dominick earned certifications in Blood Flow Restriction Training (BFRT) and Mulligan Mobilizations and is currently pursuing certification from the Postural Restoration Institute.

Outside of his professional life, Dominick maintains an active lifestyle through activities like spinning and weightlifting. During his free time, he is an enthusiastic explorer of new restaurants, a devoted fan of the New York Knicks, and a passionate traveler, constantly seeking new adventures.
