Meet Dr. Matthew Marino, DPT at Iron Physical Therapy

What do you like most about being a physical therapist? Meeting people, hearing their stories, and seeing the satisfaction a patient gets when they return to doing what they love is unmatched. Getting to work with people from all walks of life everyday is a pleasure I don’t take for granted.

What is one thing on your bucket list? Attending The Masters with my dad and brother
