At New York Spine and Sport, we had 2 interns for the this summer: Ambrosine Agbelor and Iris Lee. They worked closely with senior physical therapists for six weeks, learning basic functions of working in a rehabilitation center.
Senior physical therapist and women’s health therapist Vimala Thiruvengadam, MPT took time to explain the anatomy of spine.

We were truly honored to have both of our interns pitch in this summer, and we hope that their experience was just as fulfilling for them, as it was for us.
