This is the homepage of Ricki Bialstock, P.T., Professor in the NCC Physical Therapist Assistant Program, Department of Allied Health Sciences. I advise students who are interested in a career in Physical Therapy.  You can complete your associate degree requirements at NCC in just two years and become a Physical Therapist Assistant working in this dynamic, challenging and rewarding field.  You could also begin your studies towards becoming a Physical Therapist, a doctoral level of study, by completing the first two years of study at NCC. To research careers further, access the NCC College Catalog, the NCC Physical Therapist Assistant Program website (links at right), or the website of the American Physical Therapy Association (www.apta.org, click on links for students). I welcome you to make an  appointment with me if you would like advisement or to further discuss career opportunities.
