Dr. Sergio Turelli graduated from Rutgers University with his Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2023. During his time at Rutgers, Sergio spent time honing his skills as a therapist across multiple outpatient, hospital, and high performance athlete settings. While completing his clinical experiences, Sergio received recognition for outstanding clinical performance while attending Rutgers. Sergio intends to further his clinical education by becoming a board certified orthopedic specialist, and certified strength and conditioning coach. He believes that movement, proper strengthening, and slowly re-introducing activity can provide a successful outcome for patients looking to get back to the things they love doing. Sergio is a huge NY sports fan, painfully loyal to the Mets, Knicks, and Giants. Sergio has an extensive sports and coaching background as he has played baseball and basketball from the age of 5 all throughout high school where he was a varsity letter-man for 3 years in both sports. Aside from sports, Sergio is a big time foodie, whether it be fine tuning his cooking skills by watching some new “how to” video on YouTube, or indulging at a new restaurant that was recommended on his Instagram explore page. Sergio attributes all of his hard work in hopes of providing a better life for his two dogs at home.
