We have been treated by a number of Physical Therapists over the years.
Dr. Smith is the first holder of a PhD. in Physical Therapy. He has reached the pinnacle of the academic ladder in this field. Dr. Smith has melded numerous therapies, such as Radial Pulse Therapy, Cold Light Laser Stimulation and Graston soft tissue therapy into his practice. I've seen Dr. Smith team up with a podiatrist and together they managed to remove, without any surgery, a growth that had attached to a woman's tendon on the bottom of her foot. Dr. Smith has helped me heal from a terrible rotator cuff strain and triceps

Dr. Smith has made all the difference with my persistent and painful Plantar Fasciitis and chronic neck pain. After my first session with him I noticed that the pain had significantly diminished.
Not only is he effective, he is deeply caring and empathetic. I have recommended him to numerous friends.

I went for PT at Naples Premier Physical Therapy following knee surgery to repair a torn quadricep tendon and miniscus. I had previously received PT from Dr Shane Smith for other problems and had no hesitation to return to his practice to address this post surgery situation. PT consisted of restoring and strengthening the quad muscle and knee range of motion to pre surgery status. The PT was a combination of in office sessions and tele health sessions during the COVID 19 pandemic. Also, a home program was tailor made to supplement these sessions. All of these PT services were performed with outstanding

If I could give Dr Shane Smith 6 stars I would. He decreased my SI joint pain after my pain doctor said I couldn’t be helped further. Most importantly Shane managed my body knowledge and expectations and has helped me to strengthen muscles that have replaced the load on my injured muscles. I had been to 2 other excellent PT offices and given up on solving my pain issues. Then I visited Dr Smith for a consult. He accomplished the impossible as far as I am concerned.
