Carlito, PTA
Physical Therapist Assistant
FYZICAL Niles

I received my Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2014 and then completed my PTA program at Solex College in 2017. I grew up playing baseball and developed elbow/shoulder issues throughout high school. I didn’t receive proper treatment at the time, which led me to my strong interest in physical therapy. I began researching proper stretches and exercises to reduce my pain in hopes that one day I can help athletes and others with their own rehabilitation journeys. I’ve worked with many cases throughout my 9 year career as a PTA but looking forward to gaining more knowledge in vestibular therapy.
