He tailored a treatment plan to my needs, explained exercises clearly, and adapted the plan as necessary. Thanks to his expertise, my mobility and pain levels have significantly improved. I highly recommend Alex and Professional PT for anyone needing physiotherapy.”

About Alexander Ivashenko
**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS AN APPOINTMENT REQUEST AND NO APPOINTMENTS ARE CONFIRMED UNTIL DONE SO BY PROFESSIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY DIRECTLY**
I suffered a knee injury and surgery in 1977. I was never given the opportunity to fully recover. The doctor never directed me what to do after the surgery.
During my junior year in college (1978), I stumbled across the field and felt that if I had been directed to a good PT, I would have had better recovery. I made myself a promise to do that for other people and became a PT.
I had a PT clinic for 23 years treating orthopedic and sports related injuries in Edison NJ. At the same time, I continued my education received a post graduate doctorate in Orthopedic and Manual Physical Therapy, Board Certification as an Orthopedic Physical Therapist (OCS), Certified as an Orthopedic Manual Therapist by MAPS (COMT) and Hip and Core Specialist from the Hospital for Special Surgery (AHC). I have continued to advance my skills being certified with Vestibular and Concussion Programs. My goal is provide my patients with the highest level of skill to facilitate their recovery.
I joined Professional PT in September 2018 and have not looked back. Working with a group of therapists that push each other to do their best has encouraged me to continue in my growth as a Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapist.

Alex came right to the point. Went right to work on my problem. Gave much insight into the problem area and his plan for a complete physical therapy treatment that will bring me relief and comfort both at the fitness center and at home in the future.
Great initial visit.
