| Background: |
|
My name is Murray C. Oransky, M.S., P.T., and I own and operate Physical Therapy Works, P.C. (PTW). I have been in private practice in Manhasset, NY for over 17 years. I was a medic in the U.S.A.F. from 1963-1967. I received my B.S. and Certificate in Physical Therapy from New York University in 1972 and my M.S. in Physical Therapy from Long Island University in 1975. I am a member of the American Physical Therapy Association, a member of the Private Practice and Orthopedic section, member of the New York Insititute of Technology Advisory Board for their Physical Therapy curriculum, and a member of the Arthritis Association. |
| Experience: |
| I am a N.Y.S. licensed Physical Therapist who has had extensive experience treating patients in an out-patient setting. I have attended a wide range of continuing education courses to keep me up to date with the latest developments in the field. I have developed specific protocols to treat my patients and give them the best care possible. |
| Personalized Service: |
|
I believe in giving my patients quality care. All programs are individually
designed to meet the specific needs of the patient, who has been assessed
following a thorough evaluation. The evaluation consists of taking a history and assessing posture, joint motion, and strength. After the evaluation a personalized treatment program is given to the patient, as well as a program to be carried out at home. Patients are treated on a one-to-one basis and not handed off to non-medical personnel. This is not a revolving door practice. |
