  I had a wonderful opportunity to work here under the guidance and supervision of Michele Stamp. During the internship, I was able to work with a variety of students on strength and mobility activities as well as several manual techniques including BART massage. I was also able to learn valuable techniques for how to make activities enjoyable while simultaneously accomplishing the goals implemented by the PT. During the course of my time here, I was able to determine what path I wanted to take for my career, and through encouragement and guidance from Michele and my PTA instructor from Genesee Community College, Doctor Chris Caputi, I was motivated to pursue my doctorate in physical therapy. I am very grateful for my time at NYSSB. It is a very encouraging environment in which I was able to learn a lot about my field and about myself. Show less
