Roma Patel
PT, DPT
“Being a physical therapist means helping people rediscover what their bodies can do. I believe movement is medicine; in fact, motion is lotion, and real progress starts with truly listening to each person’s story. I value building meaningful relationships with my patients, understanding what motivates them, and creating plans that feel personal and attainable. My goal is to empower every patient to move with confidence, pursue their goals, and feel supported every step of the way.”
University of Kentucky- Bachelor of Science with a minor in Health Advocacy
University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences- Miami: Doctor of Physical Therapy
Roma truly cares about who her patients are—not just their diagnosis. She takes the time to listen, understand what matters most to them, and create a space where they feel supported, motivated, and heard. Building meaningful relationships is one of her favorite parts of being a PT, and she loves celebrating every step forward with them.
Growing up, Roma played just about every sport she could but eventually focused on field hockey and lacrosse in high school and continued playing lacrosse in college. Her athletic background helps her connect with patients who are working toward performance goals, recovering from injury, or trying to return to the activities that matter most to them.
Clinically, she enjoys treating a wide range of orthopedic and neurologic conditions. She aspires to expand her expertise by pursuing certifications in advanced manual therapy, trigger point dry needling, and vestibular rehab therapy so she can continue providing well-rounded, evidence-based care.
Outside of work, Roma love’s exploring Chicago, trying new restaurants, cooking, spending quality time with friends and family, and going on adventures with her pup, Leo.
Whether someone is recovering from an injury, building strength, or simply wanting to feel more confident in their body, she is here to support them with empathy, encouragement, and individualized care.
