Dmitry Choklin Physical Therapy and Sports Training

Even physical therapists themselves require treatment for their occasional injuries and pains. As an active athlete who regularly strength trains and participates in recreational sports, Dmitry is one of the few PTs who I trust to help me with my ailments when they arise. He is always attentive to my needs and his manual therapy techniques are always focused and specific to whatever problem I happen to have.
My work schedule is quite unpredictable but Dmitry has always been able to treat me as early as 7:00 am or as late as 8:30 pm, and this includes weekends. His willingness to see me at my convenience and to come to my house has saved me literally hours of time and has allowed my injuries to recover more quickly as a result. I have yet to learn of another clinic in Manhattan who would be willing to give me an hour of one-​on-​one attention on a late Friday evening.
I always leave our sessions together feeling better and I am glad to know another physical therapist in New York with sound clinical reasoning skills and who understands how to effectively treat pain.

I’ve recently taken up running, and have started training for 5K-​15Ks. I started off without any formal training (btw– I don’t recommend), and ended up with some knee, hip and back pains. Dmitry quickly assessed the problem areas, the problem cause and advised on how to work on relieving and eliminating the pain, as well as ways to prevent these pains from recurring. After a few weeks of following his recommended exercises and suggestions on my form for walking, running and basic posture, the pain is gone, and I’m able to run longer distances without any pains (not to mention my flexibility and movement ability has increased). If you’re looking for a PT who is knowledgeable, professional, caring and can make PT a fun experience, then Dmitry is your guy!

Dmitry is an excellent physical therapist with a fine work ethic for being thorough and helpful with information on how to take care of myself in the future. I had a chronic back pain that I was afraid may require surgery, working with Dmitry proved that I did not need surgery, but physical work to help realign my back. He offers a friendly environment and will travel to your home for a most comfortable experience. He even handled all the paperwork. Thank you again Dmitry, I highly recommend him.

My co-​worker recommended Dmitry after I injured my back and tailbone/​coccyx during a snowboarding injury. He was easy to contact, responded quickly, and was extremely professional. Dmitry even came to my house during one of the snowstorms and I am extremely grateful. I’ve received physical therapy before but Dmitry is the only therapist who takes the time to explain the root of the problem and specifically what he is doing to alleviate/​correct the problem. He informed me of what I need to do to contribute and I have taken his recommendations and homework assignments to heart. Would definitely recommend, all I can say is Thanks!

I tore my ACL back in 2012 and Dmitry was recommended to me by my orthopedic surgeon. Not only is he amazing at what he does, he truly enjoys his work. He is professional yet personable and friendly, always upbeat. I was up and running in record time. If I ever had questions about exercises, he was always available to answer questions and worked around my schedule. A year later I tore my hamstring and Dmitry didnt hesitate to see me on short notice to give me his assessment and what I should do next. He has officially become my «on call» physical therapist. Should I ever get injuried again, I wouldnt trust my therapy to anyone else.

Recently injured myself while at work — heard about Dmitry by word of mouth and couldn’t be more happier with the services I’ve received. Back at work, feeling better than I have in years. The key for me was feeling comfortable with a down to earth and judgement free professional. Happy you’re finally on Unilocal! Highly recommended.

Dmitry is smart, dedicated and great at his job. He clearly loves what he does, and cares about his clients. He was able to determine where my discomfort was coming from pretty quickly, and gave me a series of exercises and general recommendations that really helped me. He was very flexible working around my schedule and was always available when I had questions, via text or email. I could not recommend him enough!
