I am beyond thankful for the staff at Northport Physical Therapy. I went to them months after sustaining a stress fracture (the second of two serious fractures in two years) because my cross country and track coach wanted to make sure that the muscles supporting my pelvis got stronger as means of injury prevention. Heather went above and beyond making sure that my hip was taken care of properly. She gave me exercises to strengthen my core and butt so that they would be better able to support my pelvis as I returned to running. More than that though, she gave me support and encouragement as I went through the process of getting back into shape. When I had other little aches and pains in my shins, for example, she gave me additional exercises for that. On another occasion, she watched my gait as I ran to make sure that I hadnt developed poor form in the time that I had taken off of running. Maybe her best advice at all was having me slow down in my training and restructure my plan when things werent feeling right. After the 2 months that I spent at Northport Physical Therapy, I felt stronger than I had in my entire life despite the fact that I had not exercised in the 4 months prior. That feeling allowed me to go back to school and run with my team with a new sense of confidence and hope that I would soon be able to race again after a long two year break.

In March, 2012, I injured my neck and shoulder. I thought I could heal it through exercise, massage, medication, etc., but nothing worked. I was in agony; I could not lift my arm over my head, sleeping and driving a car were difficult, and sitting at the desk to type was painful. The neurologist prescribed physical therapy. Each person I spoke to recommended and gave high praise to Northport Physical Therapy, including the neurologist. I called Northport PT and spoke to Greg Fives who immediately set up an appointment with Sean Umstead. I met with Sean and he was very thorough in diagnosing the problem and appropriate treatment required. Sean worked with me for a month and I am now starting 2013 with full range of motion and pain free! Sean’s extensive training and background combined with his caring, and focused treatment of my problem, resulted in the excellent outcome I achieved. I can’t say enough about Sean, Greg, and the entire staff. Their professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating approach made the experience a pleasure. I would not hesitate to highly recommend them to anyone needing PT.

I could not be more grateful to Heather and her staff. I am a distance runner and triathlete. I have had multiple hip and knee surgeries, but I continued to have hip pain regardless. I tried MANY physical therapy and chiropractor places for years, and I I came to accept that I would be living with chronic hip pain forever. At 40 years old, thats hard to swallow. I was referred to Heather and Northport PT from the Hospital of Special Surgery. I was reluctant, but I gave it a try. After 6 months of the right therapy, I completed an IronMan distance triathlon and the NYC marathon within weeks and I did it for the first time in 5 years without hip pain. Some places can be very standardized and do not take the time to listen. Northport PT takes the time to listen and work to figure out the problem. That is a quality very difficult to find these days. They are worth the trip.

I could not be more satisfied with this place and staff. I am a runner, or at least attempt to be one, and I pulled my hamstring. After reaching out to a local running group for recommendations, this place came highly recommended. I specifically requested to see Heather, as she is an accomplished runner. She is extremely knowledgable and experienced in her field. The same can be said for the entire staff. They are all personable, educated, and will challenge you to get the best results. The ladies who do the scheduling and billing are also extremely polite and helpful. The place is clean with up to date machines and equipment. I dont plan on getting hurt again, but if I do, this is where I will go. My leg feels stronger now than before I hurt myself. A big thank you to Heather and the rest of the staff!

We were recommended to Northport Physical Therapy by our doctor at Hospital for Special Surgery. Our daughter had injuries related to soccer. She received one-on-one attention with direct supervision of exercises from Heather and staff. Her recovery was amazing. When she suffered another injury, we went back to NPT and received the same high level care but for a different problem with the same results. We have gone to other physical therapists prior but nowhere else did we receive this level of intensive, one-on-one care. I would highly recommend NPT for any of your physical therapy needs.

I recently had a hip replacment at HSS and needed Physical Therapy convenient to my home. Greg Fives at Northport Physical Therapy was recommended. I went to him for a consultation and was impressed with his thoroughness and professional manner. Northport Physical therapy is convenient and the staff was very accomodating to my schedule. I have been going several times a week for several weeks now and I am seeing excellent results with my recovery. Greg and his staff are attentive, knowledgable and good at what they do. His connections with HSS are a plus.

I have been working with the staff at Northport PT for the past month, following surgery that I received on my shoulder. The staff is Professional, Friendly, knowledgeable and are focused solely on getting you back to where you were prior to your surgery / injury. The facilities are clean and spacious, and I could not be happier with the care and attention that the entire staff at Northport PT has given me - I would put my name behind them any day!

Thanks for making my leg super awesome! I was able to get cleared and race the Head of the Charles this year. My crew and I took 11th out of 41 of the accepted schools around the world to race in the Collegiate Mens Four division. I really cannot thank you enough for making such a big difference in my life. Without the help from you and Northport PT, I would have never been able to accomplish this feat. -Kyle Daly -Iona College Class of 2012

The Northport PT staff is truly a unique group. They are innovative and skillful making my recovery process fun and enjoyable. They have become more than just a facility helping me recover, but a place I look forward to going where I see people who care about me to a degree beyond the injury Im experiencing. I feel blessed to have found such wonderful new friends. Thank you for all you do!

These professionals are great and really know what they are doing. They helped greatly with rehab for my broken ankle and were recommended by HSS where I had the surgery. I highly recommend them. Their back office is also great and easy to deal with for apts and their billing is also great and they accept most insurances.

Greg and Heather have put me back together after multiple sports related injuries and surgery. Personal attention, a friendly atmosphere, and professionalism describe every rehab experience. Its reassuring to know that they are there!
