About Nathan Ratner
**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS AN APPOINTMENT REQUEST AND NO APPOINTMENTS ARE CONFIRMED UNTIL DONE SO BY PROFESSIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY DIRECTLY** In high school, I struggled to determine a career path that I was enthusiastic about. However, having gone through physical therapy several times for injuries of my own, I decided to accept an internship with a local outpatient clinic. What I discovered was a profession that combined both my passion for health and wellness, as well as my desire to help others. Almost immediately, I decided this was the career for me. I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy from Quinnipiac University and completed a Residency in Physical Therapy through the New York Institute of Technology and New York College of Osteopathic Medicine. Throughout my undergraduate studies, doctorate, and professional work, I have loved expanding my knowledge of treatment and continuing to improve my craft. In a continuous pursuit of growth, I completed an Orthopedic Residency and became an Orthopedic Certified Specialist. Despite being proud of the accolades I have achieved, I continue to seek new ways to improve my abilities as a physical therapist.

I recently had a pain in my neck (seriously) and my primary care physician recommended StarPro Physical Therapy (29th Street location). I received nothing but the finest care by the best physical therapist in NYC, Nathan Ratner! He is kind, smart, competent, and funny. From day one I received a tailored approach for my ailment and started seeing positive results almost immediately. I’m very happy with my recovery and experience at StarPro and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you, Nate!
