David Stedjan, PT, MPT, OCS
Physical Therapist / Owner
David Stedjan received his Master of Physical Therapy and Bachelor’s of Science in Health Science from the University of Sciences in Philadelphia in 2001. Since graduating, David has worked exclusively with patients with orthopedic and sport injuries, patients after surgery, and athletes returning to sports. In 2006, David earned his Orthopedic Clinical Specialty Certification by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties.
David has lectured at various high schools, senior centers and community events on the benefits of physical therapy. He, also, presented at the Professional Sports Medicine Symposium in 2008 on “Treatment of Low Back Pain in Athletes”
David believes that patients should be treated as a whole, and not just a diagnosis. He attains this through the use of specific exercises, manual therapy, and activities to return to sport or previous levels of function, all designed to address each patient’s specific problems and needs.
David and his family live in Clarkstown and started Empire Sports Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation to be a resource to his neighbors and the community as a whole.
