The Problem
But you know you're not. You finished PT. You were cleared. And yet you still hesitate before you move, still can't do what you used to, still wonder if you'll ever feel like yourself again. Whether you're an athlete trying to get back to your sport or an active adult trying to get back to your life — you are not imagining it. You are caught in a gap the medical system doesn't talk about.
Insurance ends on a schedule — not when your body is ready. You were sent home with no plan for what comes next.
Too advanced for the clinic. Not confident enough to push on your own. Nobody is addressing the gap.
Every ache makes you second-guess yourself. Without expert guidance, one wrong move can set you back months.
Your surgery, your scar tissue, your life. No YouTube video accounts for any of that.
You moved without thinking. You competed. You lived fully. That version of you isn't gone — but getting back takes more than rest and time.
Physical therapy-directed. Performance-focused. Completely individualized. Built for this moment — the one nobody else is addressing.
"Just because you're discharged from PT doesn't mean you're done. It means the real work is about to begin."— Dr. Benjamin Portnoy, DPT · Doctor of Physical Therapy · Miami, Florida
Conditions We Work With
Baseline Sports Medicine works with post-surgical and post-injury clients across a wide range of orthopedic conditions. All programs are directed by Dr. Benjamin Portnoy, DPT.
Most people finish PT still unable to cut, sprint, or jump with confidence. We bridge that gap back to full performance.

Return to LifeReclaim your independence. We help you move without fear and stay active long after standard PT ends.

About Dr. Portnoy
I've spent years treating patients in clinical settings — athletes trying to get back to their sport, and active adults trying to get back to their life. What I see consistently is people finishing PT still unable to do what they love. The system discharges them when their insurance runs out, not when they're ready.
Baseline Sports Medicine exists to change that. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a sports medicine focus, I work with a small, select group of motivated clients who deserve more than a generic plan.
No heat packs. No ultrasound. Measurable, progressive, individualized physical therapy toward goals that actually matter to you.
