Physical & Sports Medicine
 Exceptional Patient Care and Evaluation At New York Sports Medicine and Physical Therapy, we provide a personalized, comprehensive approach to Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, a medical specialty known as physiatry, which focuses on the recovery from musculoskeletal injuries. We specialize in holistic and focused one-on-one techniques that restore function to people with problems ranging from simple sprains and strains to conditions such as arthritis and back and neck pain.
Treatment at New York Sports Medicine and Physical Therapy is prescribed and monitored by medical practitioner Michael Neely, D.O., who is certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Dr. Neely gets to the root of an injury and will create a customized, non-surgical treatment and recovery program (rehabilitation) specific to each patient’s individual needs. He utilizes the most current technologies and therapies and evaluates factors such as environmental and lifestyle issues to treat the problem and prevent recurring injury. Dr. Neely listens to each of his patients and prescribes individualized treatment programs that honor their values and treatment principles, such as a desire to avoid surgery or medications.
An Expert Team of Caring Professionals People notice the New York Sports Medicine and Physical Therapy difference the moment they step into our office. Patients benefit from our unique environment where Dr. Neely and a group of expert therapists work closely together on-site each day. Our highly trained staff is enthusiastic about each patient’s recovery. Many of our therapists are snowboarders, skiers, tennis pros, marathon runners, and yoga enthusiasts who know what it’s like to be injured and side-lined from a favorite activity. However, we are not limited to the treatment of sports-related injuries. Because we are located in the heart of New York City (Manhattan), our staff fully understands the demands that urban life can place on one’s body and are dedicated to helping people of all ages and abilities recover from many types of injury. We offer tailored medical programs to treat a variety of conditions including industrial and workplace injuries, pinched spinal nerves, sports injuries and medical conditions such as arthritis.
Innovators of Goal-Oriented Treatment Under Dr. Neely’s direction, our practice offers a range of goal-oriented treatment options designed to address each patient’s specific condition. We provide a medical focus to treat the framework of a person’s body. Treatment options include:
While we make every effort to use surgery as a last resort, some conditions may require it. We work with many of the leading surgeons in New York City representing various specialty areas. If it is necessary as part of treatment, Dr. Neely will coordinate the surgery as well as a program for post-surgical recovery. He personally sees each patient through the entire process.
Fit for Life We believe that a person can be an athlete throughout his or her lifespan and are dedicated to utilizing our knowledge of sports medicine to help our patients keep their bodies as fit and healthy as they can be. We believe in patient education. Patients have a more successful outcome and lower injury recurrence rate when they are an active participant and educated about their disorder. While in our care, patients are involved in every aspect of their treatment. Working under the supervision of our therapists, our patients not only receive the highest quality treatment plans available, but we also help them develop customized fitness programs so they can get back to the lives and activities they enjoy with the ability to perform at peak physical condition.
