Why the Performance Team?
  • Effective Communication
  • A Welcoming Environment
  • Cost Effective, Results Oriented Care

The physical therapy practice you entrust your patient's care to is a key component of their recovery. Have you ever wondered exactly what was going on when your patient is receiving physical therapy? Ask yourself these questions: How well trained are the physical therapists? Do they provide evidence based treatment utilizing sound scientific principles? Will they safely handle my post-op reconstructions? Are my patients getting the manual therapy & attention they need to do their exercises safely and correctly? You need to know the answers to these questions. Your patients should not be sent out to assess the quality of a physical therapy practice on their own and they should not simply be told to find someone that takes their insurance.

It is for this reason that it is my pleasure to introduce you to Performance Rehabilitation. Physical Therapists graduating with clinical doctoral degrees (DPT). Striving for and attaining advanced certifications in clinical specialties such as general orthopedics (OCS), sports PT (SCS) and hand therapy (CHT). Therapists that have pride in their profession and skills and are always growing professionally... and an office staff that will patiently assist your patients with all of their needs.

Effective Communication
The best teams work together and effectively communicate during the process to insure successful outcomes. As a part of your team, we reach beyond protocol and care, to effectively assist you in the management of your patients' ailments via therapist's correspondence. Through our communication, you will have a clear picture of how your patient is responding to therapy.

A Welcoming Environment
"Like a family" is how our office environment is described. Dignity and respect is paramount in our relationship with your patient. From the moment your patient first calls our office to eventual discharge, our entire office staff aims to provide them with the best possible service. We unburden your patient from the insurance headache and take care of all paperwork to obtain authorization for care. We have a very accommodating schedule open most days from 7:30 AM to 8 PM.

Cost Effective, Results Oriented Care
Countless studies demonstrate statistically significant benefit from physical therapy. Let's face it, your patients who have undergone orthopaedic reconstructive procedures need skilled therapists to efficiently optimize their recovery. Through our knowledge of tissue healing, biomechanics, exercise and manual therapy your patient will recover in the most cost effective, results oriented environment.

Why the Performance Team?

Everyone speaks of quality care, and all patients expect to get better, so what difference does it really make where your patients go for therapy?

KNOWLEDGE: We don't only provide physical therapy, we teach it. Both on campus at New York Medical College and with clinical student internships for doctoral physical therapy programs. Scholarship and involvement with academia insures that we are providing your patients with the latest techniques, using the most effective tools and utilizing the latest treatment protocols to get your patients better faster. Additionally, all therapists are required to attend regular conferences and continuing education seminars.

OUR TEAM APPROACH: Your patient's recovery relies on a continuum of care between your practice and ours. We understand that in many ways the therapy they receive is an adjunctive continuation of your practice and we want your patients to feel that their overall experience from initial consultation with you to physical therapy discharge was exceptional. Therefore beyond providing quality care and services, we know communication is key and your decisions regarding patient management rely on regular and continuous PT updates. If necessary, we will contact you in confidence when modifications in care seem indicated. We see our success as a partnership with those we serve, our patients and you, their physician.

LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE: "Rehabilitation for your injury. Wellness for your life." is not just a slogan, it is our mantra. Serving our community for over 17 years coupled with over 40 years of collective physical therapy experience, we understand that our patients are more than a single episode of care. They are people first that need help with an immediate injury, then deserve and desire support for developing and maintaining healthy lifestyles in order to preserve mobility, function and strength. We provide this through a variety of community oriented programs such as our "Kid Kardio" program with the City of Yonkers, our Senior Speaker Series, Back School and being part of the medical teams at the Westchester and Yonkers Marathons and the MS Bike Tour in NYC.

Our TEAM Philosophy:

Unknown:
Teamwork divides the task and doubles the success.

Coach Dean Smith to Michael Jordan in his freshman year at UNC "Michael, if you can't pass, you can't play."

H.E. Luccock:
No one can whistle a symphony. It takes an orchestra to play it.

Andrew Carnegie:
Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.
