“All physical therapy practices have their own programs,” explains Robert McKee, MPA, PT, founder and president of New York Physical Therapy, PC. “Physical therapy is a science and art form where a physical therapist uses his or her extensive training of non-invasive, non-chemical methods to treat many muscle and joint conditions.” 

With offices in Valley Stream and Merrick, NYPTPC specializes in orthopedic post surgical care. The scope of the practice emphasizes sport and orthopedic musculoskeletal conditions affecting infants to seniors. They provide comprehensive physical therapy for all orthopedic cases — pre- and post-operative — with a heavy concentration on arthroscopic and reconstructive surgeries for the hand, knee and shoulder. Also offered are treatment programs for pre- and post-spinal surgery patients, as well as for patients who have undergone joint replacement. “I’d like to stress that physical therapy is not a “thing” but an individual therapist applying his or her knowledge, experience and skill,” adds McKee.

Both he and Evan Greene, MSPT, the key people at New York Physical Therapy, have under gone numerous orthopedic surgeries and sports-related injuries themselves. They understand “both sides of the coin,” seeing clearly through the patient’s eyes as well as the clinician’s. They practice what they advise advocating a routine of exercise during a patient’s rehabilitation and post-care, with a follow-up agenda for wellness, health and fitness.

McKee is both a participant in, and a PT consultant for the LI Xpress Boot Camp exercise program. Conducted by Manny Rodriquez MPA,CSCS, the program addresses exercise and nutritional needs for athletes, and adults who would like to get and stay fit. Individually structured, it offers a natural segue for patients to continue recovery once their PT program is completed. LI Xpress Boot Camps can be reached at (516) 882-5308, or www.LIXpressbootcamps.com, and are located in Farmingdale, Syosset and Westbury.
