What a PTA actually does.

Your evaluation and your plan of care come from a licensed physical therapist. Richelle Matienzo is one of the people who carries that plan out with you, hands on, and reports back on how you are moving.

She started out volunteering as an aide. That is where the work got hold of her, and she has been in it ever since. What she wants for you is simple and she says it plainly: live your life to the best of your ability, at whatever stage of it you are in.

  • Licensed physical therapist assistant, trained at American Career College.
  • Experience with orthopedic, neurological, vestibular and age-related conditions, in outpatient clinics and in people’s homes.

Care this good, this close.

You are the one everyone else leans on, which is exactly why your own pain has waited this long. Talk to a specialist and we will start with what hurts and why. Physical therapy and a dozen specialty services sit under one roof here, so the people treating you talk to each other. Rather ask a question first? Contact us.
