Services:

Athleticare-Amherst is a dynamic orthopedic based physical therapy clinic that specializes in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries. All of the therapists in our clinic have a minimum of 12 years experience and most have attained a specialty certification in at least one area of orthopedics. We are committed to the importance of providing the best care for our patients and stay abreast of current treatment modalities through continuing education.

Our focus is on the treatment of orthopedic injuries and overuse syndromes, as well as the treatment of spinal pain and post operative care. Through our close affiliation with local orthopedic surgeons you are then assured of an easy transition for your post operative orthopedic rehab.

Our therapists are also experts in treating student athletes. AthletiCare’s Sports Outreach program provides certified athletic trainers (ATC) to over twenty area high schools and colleges throughout the region. If injured, students receive immediate assessment and treatment on site. If necessary, athletes are quickly referred to medical specialists allowing for a quick and safe return to their sport.

What do our patients say? Our clinicians enjoy their work and it shows by the way they treat their patients. Our patient satisfaction surveys consistently demonstrate high scores in the areas of treatment satisfaction and recommendation to other friends and family members. We also know the importance of providing care when it is convenient for your schedules – early morning appointments (7:00 a.m.) are available as well as evening hours.

We will be your lifelong partner for all your orthopedic rehab needs!
