Specialized Therapists... Better Outcomes
OUR STORY
Dennis Dougherty, PT, CEO and Judy Dougherty, PT, JD, COO are both physical therapists and have treated patients and owned practices in the Lehigh Valley for over 25 years. Their entrepreneurial spirit is combined with nationally recognized St. Luke’s University Health Network.

OUR GOAL
To be a patient oriented practice that creates a rehabilitation experience that exceeds patient expectations.

OUR MISSION
When you come to one of our Physical Therapy at St. Luke's community based clinics, we want you to feel like you are visiting old friends. As you walk in you will be greeted with a smile by our staff that will soon come to know you by name. All of our therapists are either specialized or taking steps to become specialized via advanced training because we believe that specialization is the key to successful outcomes for patients. We are a clinician led and driven company, which allows us to do what is best for our patients. We want you to enjoy your rehabilitation experience so much that the next time you, a family member, or friend find themselves with an injury or physical limitation, you will recommend  Physical Therapy at St. Luke’s.
