Kaitlyn Parrotte PT, DPT, OCS, CFMT

Kaitlyn (Katie) received her Bachelor of Science in Health Studies and Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Ithaca College. In 2017 Katie joined the ranks of two elite groups within the physical therapy world, becoming a board certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS) through the American Physical Therapy Association, and a Certified Functional Manual Therapist (CFMT) through the Institute of Physical Art.

Prior to joining the H&D team, Katie has had experience working with individuals experiencing bowel, bladder, and sexual dysfunction and pelvic pain, as well as women during pregnancy and post-partum, men and women post pelvic surgery, and adult and pediatric orthopedic populations. Because she believes education is a lifelong process, and wants to ensure she is providing her patients with the best possible care, Katie is constantly taking continuing education to further develop her skillset.

Outside of working at H&D, Katie is the Chair for the Greater New York District of the NYPTA, and on the Board of Directors for the Chapter as well. She is also the Vice Chair of the IPPS Research Committee, a member of the Governance Committee for the APTA’s Section of Women’s Health, and a member of the Judicial/Reference Committee for the NYPTA. Furthermore, she regularly participates in advocacy efforts at the local, state, and national level in an effort to improve patient care and access, as well as to help strengthen the physical therapy profession overall. Additionally, she has an interest in contributing to research in pelvic health, to promote community awareness, and help raise the bar for quality of care.

Katie is a member of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), the New York Physical Therapy Association (NYPTA), and the International Pelvic Pain Society (IPPS). Physical Therapist
