Meet the Team

Neselle Mae Hernandez PT, DPT
Clinic Director
Neselle Mae Hernandez PT, DPT
Clinic DirectorNeselle Mae Hernandez, PT, DPT attended New York Medical College, where she earned a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Although she has clinical experience in treating a wide range of orthopedic conditions, she particularly enjoys working with post-operative patients and the geriatric population.
As a physical therapist, Neselle enjoys the fact that therapy can improve people’s every day lives, and that she can help patients recover from injuries, aches, and pains. She thinks it is important for patients to feel they have someone they can trust because they often feel as though no one understands their pain before they come to therapy. Neselle enjoys the process of building connections with patients and learning about their unique needs, treating them with care and compassion, and ultimately helping them get back to the activities they need and want to do.
