Matt Contino is my "go to" person whenever my body gets in trouble or needs a tune up. He has been the one to fix the pinched nerve in my shoulder, the crippling spasm in my back or the tendinitis in my elbow. He finds it, he diagnoses it and he fixes it. I can recommend Matt without reservation.

As a bright and energetic physical therapist, years ago, Matt played the most important role in the rehab process of my left knee. Not only was he an inspirational motivator, but he was also extremely informative and helpful with the rehab techniques I needed to make a speedy recovery and return to rare playing form. I'd definitely refer anyone I know to Dr. Contino.

I had been an avid cyclist for over 25 years but was concerned that my bicycle days were over when the surgeon removed a giant-cell tumor from my left femur. Thank goodness for Matt Contino. Because of Matt's extensive training in physical therapy, his hands-on approach and also because he cares so much, I am now back on the bicycle, riding as long and as fast as ever.

Being a professional wrestler comes with a lot of bumps and bruises. Whenever I had the unfortunate situation of injury, Matt Contino was the first person I would call to get me healthy and back in the ring. His expertise and knowledge is top notch and at the end of my therapy, I would always end up stronger and healthier than before my injuries.

I can't say enough about the quality of service my members received, over the course of many years, from Matt Contino, DPT. Rarely do people go out of their way to comment directly to me. But in Matt's case, people were anxious to let me know that they felt they received exceptional treatment--friendly, smiling, knowledgeable, with extra care.....Yes, Matt Contino is that good.

I have known Matt for 17 years, first as a patient and the last 9 as an exceptional physical therapist. He has a unique insight into treating orthopedic injuries and problems because he has been through a lot of physical therapy himself and has helped our busy practice treating a wide assortment of orthopedic problems. I have enjoyed my association with him as a therapist. He does a great job treating my patients and athletes and my patients universally give me great feedback about his care. I trust him implicitly to treat my complicated patients and he maintains a good dialogue with me as the treating physician regarding problematic cases. I will miss him here in New York, but the Orlando area patients will benefit from his expertise and easygoing manner. I recommend Matt without reservations to treat every level of orthopedic injury there is.

I first met Dr. Contino a few years ago while rehabbing a back injury. As a golfer, I needed to spend many hours on the range playing quite a few holes a day, but I could not even stand up straight, let alone make a golf swing. After just a few sessions with him, I was back on my feet, spending at least 6 hours a day on the golf course. Now, whenever I tweak my back, Matt is the first person I call.

Dr. Matt Contino has been a personal friend and professional colleague of mine for over ten years. We started out together as personal trainers. Over the years, I have referred many of my clients, all of whom spoke very highly of Matt. And I have been a patient of his myself; he was of tremendous help in my recovery from rotator cuff surgery.

You will find Matt to be current and up to date on all the latest physical therapy techniques and modalities. But more importantly, Matt has a kind bedside manner, and gives close personal attention to all his patients.

After my rotator cuff surgery, I was referred to Matt for physical therapy. I found him to be an excellent, dedicated, thorough physical therapist. He came up with great stretches and exercises for me to do at home. He would accommodate my work schedule, even if that meant him coming in early or staying late. Overall, I was extremely satisfied and would have no hesitancy in recommending Matt to anyone.

Matthew Contino and I have known each other for about eight years and in that time, he has helped resolve many thorny problems after a shoulder injury and knee replacements. He has an intuitive sense when to encourage and when the patient in his care needs to be challenged. His sense of caring and concern for the individual's well being is always foremost. One can't help but being buoyed by his cheerfulness and engaging personality.

After having a total shoulder joint replacement, I faced months of rehab. Without the care and attention afforded to me by Matt Contino, I would never have acheived such outstanding results. Through Matt's effort, encouragement and constant support, I now enjoy a painfree fully functional right shoulder. During a time of great uncertainty and trepidation, Matt was there for me, as he is for all his patients. I heartily recommend Matt Contino.
