More about Dr. Simonetta Sambataro, MD

I did my residency in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at Saint Vincent Hospital and then joined their PM&R department in 2002 becoming the Associate Residency Program Director.Since Saint Vincent Hospital closed in April 2010 I opened my own practice where I focus on Sports and musculoskeletal injuries.I also continued to be the Pediatric Physiatrist at Elizabeth Seton Pediatric Center in Yonkers. My particular interests lie in Sports Medicine, particularly dance and running medicine, as well as Pediatric Rehabilitation. I am board certified in both these specialties.I have a strong interest in nutrition and natural supplements as a way to heal the body and integrate these in my treatments.
