This is the homepage of Laura Gilkes, P.T., M.A., Professor, Director of the Physical Therapist Assistant Program in the Department of Allied Health Sciences. I advise students who are interested in a career in physical therapy.

Career opportunities include physical therapist assistant, an associate degree program available at NCC, and physical therapist, a doctoral level program of study which you can begin at NCC.

You can research career opportunities further by accessing the Nassau Community College Catalog, the NCC website (links at right) or the website of the American Phyical Therapy Association (www.apta.org click on links for students). Several videos of the profession are available directly from the link at the right or by accessing www.beapt.org.
