This PT office is amazing from Jeel the head PT to Alexa at the front desk. So knowledgable, helpful and accommodating with my recovery. Also appointments were easy and after 2 surgeries my foot is feeling great. Highly recommend Professional PT Hicksville.

Hi!This Professional Physical Therapy location was a perfect find for me! In the past, I would always brush off Therapy saying, “I don’t have time for this!” But now I realize how important it really is! My Occupational Therapist Naya, always explains my tasks clearly and if I have any questions,... she takes the time to explain them again in further detail! She makes me feel comfortable and I know that I am in good hands! She is very professional, polite and the work she has me doing is in my best interest! This office is clean, all the equipment looks brand new and up to date! When I was originally calling around for information about a place, the staff here are very helpful, polite and even more so in person! I would recommend this location, if anyone needs a good PT or OT! After my venture is fully completed here, if I ever need PT or OT again, I myself would return in a heartbeat!Thanks all,Kenny Mread more

Jeel was great! She really took the time and extra care to help figure out the issue with my injury. (I never felt rushed- she really wanted to get to the bottom of it) The assigned stretches and exercises I did helped relieve my pain, both during my sessions, as well as on my own at home. Thank... you Jeel !read more

My experience with Stephanie during my therapy was positive and very enjoyable. I could tell how much she cared about helping me progress in my therapy and make sure my wrist was in a good place when I left. All together she was a very caring and sweet person and I would recommend her to anyone... looking to go for OT.read more

Teresa M.
After having hand surgery in June I started Occupational Therapy at the Hicksville location to regain use of my hand. Thanks to the knowledge and skill of my therapist, Stephanie Tufano, my hand is doing well.
Sean M.
I recently had a knee injury and was fortunate to have received PT from Oliver and the rest of the team at Professional Physical Therapy. Everyone on the team is extremely personable which made PT never feel like a chore and I was happy to come and work on my recovery. They informed me on what each... exercise hoped to accomplish and made sure each was done correctly. I couldn't recommend this location more, I hope I wont be needing PT in the future, but if I do I know where I will be going.read more

Alfonso Zamudio R.
Professional Physical Therapy is wonderful and clean environment. If looking for a doctor I suggest Stephanie Tufano. Tufanos work is nothing but the best and demonstrated the most professional attitude I've ever had going to an Occupational Therapist. Tufano is always proactive and attacks the... problem head on with the attentiveness and care she can provide.read more
Brian W.
Jeel and the team at Pro PT are the model example for professionals. I spent 6 months rehabbing from a torn shoulder labrum. From the first day I felt super comfortable knowing they would get me back to where I needed to be physically. I recommend them to anyone looking to have a successful rehab.
John D.
Kezia and Jeel were amazing, super knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout my whole experience at Professional PT. Thank you guys!
Margie N.
Stephanie Tufano is a great Occupational Therapist.I was here back in 2017 where I need P.T. for my shoulder and my therapist was Jeel. I was very happy with the treatment, the layout of the facility and the friendliness of the staff there. So when I fractured my wrist in Dec 2020 I remembered... this place and called right away to make an appt.Stephanie was my O.T. and she was great. Not only did she give advice as to home exercises she also suggested some wrist aids like the wrist widget, which stabilizes your wrist. We were both on the same page and she knew exactly what and how to do what I needed to be done and after 8 weeks I was at 97% back to normal. YEAH!! I looked forward to my sessions and was really happy with the progress that we made in such a short time. On a personal note Stephanie introduced me to my new favorite Tai Resturant.Everyone here was very friendly, the receptionist Stephanie and Alexa were always very helpful.read more
Jason D.
OT therapist Stephanie is very knowledgeable and really cares about her patients. Recommending exercises to do at home to help promote better recovery. The ladies at reception are very helpful as well. I recommend this facility to anyone in need of therapy.
MARY ANN M.
Stephanie Tufano is my PT. She is very nice, good personality, very knowledgeable in all types of therapy on my hand. She’s very patient, and helpful. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a PT.

Stephanie provided amazing occupational therapy care. Was able to see very positive results in mobility, strength and range of motion in hand post surgery.
Russell M.
Excellent. I can't say enough about Joe, Jeel and the rest of the staff. They truly care about your well being. I went to them after having my rotator cuff repaired. I immediately felt comfortable. They worked with me for the months I was there and got my shoulder back in working order. The... facility was always clean and well maintained. This is especially important during this pandemic.Joe and Jeel are phenomenal physical therapists. They are truly a credit to their profession as well as very caring human beings.Thank you for taking care of my shoulder.read more

The entire experience was outstanding. My broken wrist not so much. First, Alexia was a superb therapist. When I first started therapy it was a bit difficult. Alexia eased the process and implemented exercises that helped me regain the use of my wrist. She was patient and prepared.Thank you... Alexia.The front desk associates, Alexa and Stephanie, thank you as well for being so helpful in scheduling my appointments and helping out.I highly recommend PPT. A professional and attentive organization.read more

Dr. Paul L.
Prior to my coming to Professional Physical Therapy Hicksville, I have been to several different types if practices. From single therapist to large institutional settings. My experience with Professional Physical Therapy Hicksville has been unbelievable. From Therapists Jeel and Joe to PTA Keziah,... I have been treated with total respect. Their knowledge of my therapy needs is second to none. I continue to marvel at the personal attention given to me and all of their patients.. There is no way I would go to any other practice.read more

Bio

When people are in pain, they do not feel the best. Their difficulty in performing daily chores is a challenge hence causing their lives to be difficult. My passion is to help people so that they can perform their regular chores without feeling pain and discomfort. I have identified that there is no one way to treat patients, so over the course of my career I have learned different techniques to help the patients. My educational background includes a transitional DPT from University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio, bachelors from JRN Rajasthan Vidyapeeth in India and Masters in Public Health with health education major.

therapist for sports teams. Several years later I am a licensed therapist working on people and not cars.
