TOWSON, MARYLAND (AUGUST 4, 2014): Five Mid-Atlantic based physical therapy practices
with more than 60 locations across five states and Washington, D.C. have combined and will

“We chose the name Pivot Physical Therapy as it suggests movement and a turning point
toward recovery and good health. While we have formed a larger company, we remain
hometown therapists providing world-class physical therapy where you live, work, and play,”
said Gary Katz, PT, ATC, CSCS, CEO of Pivot Physical Therapy.
