“My experience was great. The doctor was knowledgeable and friendly. I had knee pain and the doctor explained the root cause and provided guidance on the best exercises. Within four weeks the pain was not there. ”
Ireen K.March 10, 2026
“Couldn't recommend Physis PT more -- I came in seeking pain relief and sustainable strength building for some hip, neck, and shoulder pain I've been experiencing for a few years now, and while I've seen several other doctors, PTs, chiropractors, etc., none have been able to provide me any longterm relief until I started working with Dr. Panyda. This place is covered by my insurance, and provides amazing personalized, functional help. He's helping me learn how to fix my posture, use and stretch my muscles properly, and strengthen weaker muscles.”

I would highly recommend Dr. Sunny. I had been bedridden with a back injury for more than four months, and after just a few sessions with him, I finally started to make real progress. He focuses on the root cause so you fix long-term issues.

I was treated by Dr. Pandya several years ago when he worked at a different clinic. I was happy to find out that he now has his own practice, which is in a very convenient location for me. He's very thoughtful about how to approach his treatment of your issues and what needs to be done, and he has a great bedside manner. I highly recommend him.

Six months ago I broke two vertebrae while skiing. An orthopedic surgeon told me my back would heal on its own, but it did not. As the months passed, I continued to suffer from terrible back pain and was unable to maintain my daily exercise routine. I saw several physical therapists in San Francisco and New York who were unable to effectively treat my issues. Desperate for a different approach, I contacted Physis Physical Therapy two months ago. The front office team was extremely polite and efficient in setting up my initial appointment with Dr. Sunnykumar Pandya. Through a combination of manual work, point-specific exercises and shockwave therapy, Dr. Pandya's intuitive approach has helped me regain mobility and exercise again without pain. As an Olympic athlete I have worked with dozens of physical therapists over the past four decades. Dr. Pandya is one of the most skilled, focused and instinctive therapists I have ever seen.

Dr Pandya was absolutely fantastic. He really took care of my ankle and went past regular rehab to help me get back to running shape.
March 28, 2024Ali D.Verified patient
Dr. Pandya was incredibly friendly, helpful, and informative. He knew exactly what to do and thoroughly walked me through each step of the consultation. I left feeling much lighter and well-versed in the source of my problem. Highly recommend!
March 25, 2024Christian M.Verified patient
I would fully recommend Dr. Sunny and the Physis team in general. They have a whole body approach to chronic pain and injury recovery, which is a rare but super important thing! My evaluation was very thorough and I am planning to continue my treatment here.
November 2, 2023Karla S.Verified patient
Dr. Pandya is a great provider. He treated a complex shoulder injury from a sports accident, to complete recovery. Very knowledgable and i feel he helped me a lot. Highly recommend.
October 17, 2023John T.Verified patient
Dr. Sunny is great. Started visited him after developing shin splints while training for a marathon. Dr. Sunny has been tremendous in not only helping to address the pain of shin splints, but also developing muscle groups / improving technique to avoid developing shin splints in the future.
Throughout the process, I've really enjoyed Dr. Sunny's attentive nature - whenever I voice any new developments he listens closely and aptly adjusts, fostering an extremely collaborative process.

Have had a great experience with Physis! I am a distance runner and came down with extensor Tendonitis. Worked with Sunny on mobility and strengthening that allowed me to get back into running much faster than I anticipated. Always easy to schedule as well.

It is clear that Dr Sunny and staff have a real passion for their craft. Paid great attention my concerns and the details around the treatment. Highly recommended.
May 4, 2023Todd K.Verified patient
This was the best experience and I finally have hope that my neck, shoulder, and TMJ pain will be resolved. Dr. Sunny is extremely skilled and efficient in making sure my pain is addressed. He has paid extra attention to my TMJ pain. I have had weeks with no neck and shoulder and jaw pain.. which is the first time I can say that in years! It's all thanks to Dr. Sunny and Physis Physical Therapy.

Wonderful provider! Great at explaining what he is doing and giving instruction for future exercises at home. Nice office. Friendly staff
March 2, 2023Kaitlyn P.Verified patient
Dr. Pandya really took the time to explain what was going on with the issue I had with great detail. He’s very knowledgeable and approachable. Already feel a big improvement after one visit with him and I appreciate the homework (exercises) he gave me. Highly recommend!
February 16, 2023Ana A.Verified patient
Sunny is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything in detail. You also see results soon enough as he does a thorough diagnosis and prescribes the best plan to solve your issues. I’m glad I went to Sunny with my back problem - I saw tremendous improvement after the very first visit and recommended him to my friends and family. Sunny’s wife Priyanka is very knowledgeable too (although she hasn’t treated me directly) and gave me great advise for a friend who had pelvic muscle issues. They’re a wonderful and professional team!
October 15, 2022Rashna P.Verified patient
Thorough evaluation and clear communicator from the get go. Listened to all of my concerns and gave me top tier information that addressed my concerns.
August 30, 2022Farzad-elhaam K.Verified patient
Sunny is awesome! Super kind and knowledgeable. I had shoulder problems from working and I felt better right after my first appointment. Sunny is great at explaining why my shoulder may be hurting and teaching me exercises. I have never had to wait long and the office is very nice.
July 25, 2022Kaitlyn P.Verified patient
After the first visit I understand better what happened to my leg, how Dr. Pandya is going to cure it and what to expect next. Highly recommending.
March 2, 2022Alexander I.Verified patient
Sunny is an absolute gem! I came in with severe back pain and could not walk fully upright. He managed to release my back and relieve my pain and I was able to walk properly when I left. Sunny's approach is to look at your entire body and not just address the symptoms. He helps you understand what is causing the issues one is experiencing to prevent them from coming back. I very much appreciate his approach to take into account the whole body while also providing me with immediate relief from pain. I feel I walked out of every appointment lighter and an inch taller. Would highly recommend him!

Dr. Pandya is an excellent Doctor, fully dedicated to his profession.
It's rare to see a doctor these days who have a vocation for his work.
He takes the time to explain everything he does in detail.
July 22, 2021Domingo O.Verified patient
Sunny is very enthusiastic about helping you. He identifies the problem in a systematic way and helps you understand it before suggesting the treatment plan. This is my first time getting treated via the DNS method and it has been quite effective so far.

April 1, 2021Nabila R.Verified patient
Had my very first physiotherapy session with Dr. Sunny Pandya due to my R shoulder pain. He evaluated the situation, explained the problem and worked patiently with me on understanding the recovery exercises. He was also very responsive after the visit on questions I had while doing these exercises home. Would highly recommend Physis Physical Therapy.

Sunny and Physis Physical Therapy represent the best of Physical Therapy services in NY. I came to Sunny having lost strength and mobility in my R shoulder due to a significant injury. As a surgeon, I would suffer severe pain after a day in the OR. I came to Sunny to improve my strength and mobility prior to having shoulder surgery. Sunny had different plans for me. Sunny expressed me that his goal was to improve my condit such that surgery would be unnecessary. I still can't belive that I am now able to raise my arm without crippling pain and discomfort. I am headed towards a non surgical repair of significant injury due to awesome team work at Physis Physical Ther and Sunny.

Sunny is great. He is the kind of medical professional that you can tell really cares about improving your pain. He is very thoughtful with every instruction he gives and which treatment is best for you depending on what you'are going through. He always seems to listen to you and remembers everything you talk about session to session. He has great energy and somehow always seems energetic and positive!

My experience at Physis Physical Therapy has been excellent! I am U.S Army veteran and have had persistent pain on the side of my left foot since I left active duty over 10 years ago. Over the course of 4 - 6 weeks, the pain in the foot / ankle has gone away. Additional my posture has also improved significantly with the treatments. Highly recommend this place!!!
More than 1 year agoRH
Dr. Sunny is unlike other physical Therapist (in a much better way). You set on personalized treatments here every time Sunny treats not only the pain but looks the body as a whole. He does a lot of hands-on manual work and has greatly helped me with my chronic neck and TMS issues. I highly recommend this place (Physis Physical Therapy). Whole team is awesome.

Finally!! Specialist of the body @ muscles. Even after your pain gets better and if you have no pain, I highly suggest you take a visit to Physis Physical Therapy and see how great they are for yourself. You will not be disappointed. Dr. Katz and Sunny are amazing.

I left feeling better after I visit and hopeful!

Physis Physical Therapy is amazing!! They treat the whole body and not just isolated to your injury. Great people and very warm and friendly environment. Very short walk from Grand Central and so conveninent.

I had issues with feeling sports ready after my second ACL reconstruction. I've sen several physical therapists that all had the same cookie cutter approach. They look at my knee and simply think about strengthening of my quads, hams & glutes. They ignored the pain I was feeling in my back & hip. The people at physis listened to my pain, asked question about my ACL injuries and any other previous injuries. Facility is big and staff is always friendly and flexible hours. Overall I highly recommend Physis to anyone recovering from sports injury major surgery & any type of chronic pain.

I've been working with the Physis team for a little over a month on a complicated shoulder issue that involved multiple injuries from different times. Sunny has different methods than I experienced at other PT offices, his methods at times can seem challenging in a good way. If you're an athlete and injured I highly recommend giving this a try as I've made a ton of progress on repositioning and stabilizing my shoulder in only about a month. He is very focused and enthusiastic about getting things right. I also recently started working with Tom who is a part of the team in the office, who has been introducing some really helpful positions and movements, very helpful to address an injury from different angles.
