Darlene's true passion in life is helping others. Her contagious energy paired with a NY style sense of humor has enabled Darlene to become a well-loved and deep-rooted member of her community. Darlene earned her degree at NYU in New York City and has enjoyed practicing physical therapy for the past 40 years. In 2004, her dream of owning her own practice came to fruition as she opened the doors of Back To Health; a private physical therapy and wellness practice serving the Fort Lauderdale and surrounding areas of South Florida. Darlene’s passion of helping others comes to life both in and out of the physical therapy office as she has successfully infused her love for all her patients into each and every staff member at Back to Health. This boutique clinic is a loving and caring home away from home that is distinguishable by the quality of care and commitment exemplified by the staff meticulously groomed by Darlene.
