Orthopedic Physical Therapist - Certified in Dry Needling
Riley McQuivey, PT, DPT

As a physical therapist, I believe recovery should be meaningful—not just functional. My goal is to help patients return to the life they want to live through individualized, purposeful movement and hands-on care that aligns with what matters most to them. Whether it's lifting a grandchild, getting back under a barbell, or returning back to sports, I'm here to help people reconnect with the things that make them feel "whole".

I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of St. Augustine in Austin, Texas, following an undergraduate degree in Exercise Physiology. After PT school, I completed an orthopedic residency through Evidence in Motion (EIM) to deepen my knowledge of musculoskeletal rehabilitation. I'm currently awaiting results for my Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS) board certification.

Clinically, I specialize in orthopedic care with a focus on ACL rehabilitation and total joint replacement recovery. I work primarily with post-operative patients and athletes, emphasizing patient-centered treatment plans rooted in manual therapy and barbell-based strength training for long-term durability.

My approach is simple: align rehab with what’s personally meaningful to each individual. I find the most fulfillment in the small milestones—the subtle yet powerful signs that someone is truly getting better, one step at a time.

Outside the clinic, you'll usually find me lifting weights, fly fishing, swimming, or spending time with my wife and two young children. My family is my daily motivation to stay healthy, stay present, and continue learning and growing in this profession.

I’m excited to work with you and be part of your journey toward healing and strength!
