Mel Fernandez, DPT

Dedicated to his patients and a true professional. That’s what characterizes Dr. Mel Fernandez. He helped me regain mobility on both my shoulders and for the past four years he’s been helping my 96 years old mother maintain function after a femur injury.
Aside for being a wonderful and considerate person, he’s excellent at what he does.
Would not hesitate a moment to recommend him to anyone needing physical therapy.

Dr Mel excellent person, he helps his clients with therapy exercises that help improve mobility - independence. In the comfort of your home . I had a problem with my back his advice and exercises helped me a lot, We have used his services for many years we recommend him 100%.

Dr. Mel is an extraordinary therapist. He was referred to me for home care by other colleagues in his field.
Expecting “same as” that I experienced with previous practitioners over a period of years, I was pleasantly surprised & grateful on the very first visit when he discussed & demonstrated unique approaches to meeting my particular physical challenges. All successive visits were never disappointing.
Dr. Mel begins with a thorough assessment, including environmental factors, to identify particular areas of concern. From this he establishes a plan for implementing realistic goals established with the patient. During each visit he carefully evaluates the efficacy of prescribed treatments & readjusts the therapy if indicated. I was particularly impressed with his emphasis on the importance of muscle strengthening to undergird the set goals.
In a nutshell, Dr. Mel uses every bit of each visit prudently. His personality is well suited for his profession: he is patient, thoughtful, calm & totally focused on meeting the objectives that were set in motion. I am very pleased to recommend his services.

Dr. Mel Fernandez is an outstanding Physical Therapist. He has helped me with my walking, balance & strength. He is professionally excellent with knowledge & experience. He is kind, caring, and intuitive to our needs. He has helped my partner, Martin Siegel with his back problems, balance & strength. Preventing falls by each of us. We highly recommend him & continue using his services

Dr Mel Fernandez has been so effective at improving my strength and relieving muscle pain after recent injuries plus years of inactivity. Having experienced many different PT groups over the years, I found Dr Mel’s approach gave so much more time and focus on the exercise and activities needed to correct the issues -plus the time savings bonus that he comes to your home/apartment! A true professional and pleasure to work with.
