Dr. Mitacchione was inspired to pursue a career in physical therapy as a second career. When my mother was in her forties, she needed to have both hips replaced due to a congenital malformation. I remember how much physical therapy she had and how much it helped her. From that point, Dr. Mitacchione knew that becoming a physical therapist a job where he could help others return to normal activities while using both his hands and his mind - was the right path for him.Dr. Mitacchione is board certified by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties as an Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), which is considered the highest clinical credential attainable by an orthopaedic therapist and is held by less than two percent of practicing therapists in the United States.
