I’m Dr Matt. I was born and raised in Massapequa, NY. Once a chief, always a chief! Sports have always been a major part of my life. I’m an athlete and will always be an athlete. I played college baseball at Adelphi University. I wasn’t always the most talented on the field, but you better believe I was always one of the hardest workers in the room.
After graduating from Adelphi, I started working as a PT aide and a strength & conditioning coach for an outpatient orthopedic company. I worked with every sport you can think of and with athletes ranging from the high school to professional levels.
I attended New York Institute of Technology where I received my Doctorate of Physical Therapy. While in school, I had several clinical affiliations at a variety of different outpatient orthopedic practices throughout New York. After graduation, I continued working for the same outpatient orthopedic company for a year or so, but it wasn’t long until I wanted to take things to the next level. I was sick of having multiple patients scheduled at once and not being able to provide the quality of care I knew I could give and my patients deserved. That’s where Trident Physical Therapy was born.
Nowadays, I continue to push the limits and make sure I maintain an athlete’s mindset. I am a jack of all trades and believe in practicing what you preach. I’ve completed numerous Tough Mudders. You’ll find me strength training in the gym at least 3-4 times a week. I do yoga and love running (as long as the weather is nice).
If you’re looking for someone to hold your hand, you came to the wrong place. If you want someone that is going to push you to be the best version of yourself, then I’m your guy. You give me 100% effort and I’ll give you a 110% all day, every day. It’s time to flip the script on what you think physical therapy looks like. If you’re ready for an unmatched physical therapy experience, let’s get started.
Hey I’m Dr. Spencer. I’m a physical therapist with a broad background in sports, strength, and conditioning. I’m a former collegiate lacrosse player with 6 years of NCAA experience. Over the years, I’ve gained experience in a variety of training approaches, allowing me to tailor my methods to best meet the needs of each individual. I’m passionate about working with clients of all levels, whether you’re recovering from an injury or striving to reach new performance goals. My focus goes beyond just helping you return to a pain-free life—I’m dedicated to taking you to the next level, unlocking your full potential, and guiding you toward long-term success. I look forward to partnering with you on your rehabilitation journey towards improved performance.
