About Us

I am founder of RPT Physical Therapy in 2000. I decided to become a physical therapist after a career in law enforcement because I wanted to continue to utilize my skills, and my experience. After graduating from Downstate Medical Center in 1997, I worked in a hospital setting and outpatient facilities treating a multitude of conditions. After gathering tremendous experience, I started RPT Physical Therapy in 2000 to treat patients using latest treatment protocols. I decided on the Carroll Gardens section of Brooklyn because I was born and raised here and I am well known to surrounding residents.

My focus and all therapists and staff I employ first and always is my patients and their care. Your well-being is my concern.

I grew up in Rochester, NY and received my bachelors degree in Biology from SUNY Geneseo where I was on the Women's Lacrosse team and club ski team. I received my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from LIU Brooklyn, where I gained experience in both inpatient and outpatient rehab settings. I have lived in Brooklyn since 2017 and I enjoy running in Brooklyn Bridge park, spending time with friends and going skiing in the winter.

Hi, my name is Roberta or more affectionally known as Roe. I have been with RPT since its inception. I have been married to Brian for 28 years and have 2 children and 2 dogs that I adore.

My focus is helping patients navigate the insurance process and making sure they receive all benefits for which they are entitled.

I am and have been an avid exercise enthusiast receiving my ISSA certification as well as placing in top 3 in 50 and over category multiple times on national stage in the physique category.
