I recently finished shadowing Dr. Villanueva and Daniel Zambito at this location and learned so much. Dr. Villanueva's knowledge in the field of neurology is amazing and she answered any questions I had as well as educating her patients on the physiology of their illness. Daniel's expertise in sports medicine pairs very well with Dr. Villanueva's skills as a neurological PT. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone in need of Physical Therapy!

Good day to all who may read this review. Neuro Physical Therapy with Juvy and Dan Is THE ONLY PLACE to receive Multiple Sclerosis therapy. Juvy and Dan compliment each other with their one on one therapy sessions. Each has their own techniques for optimal performance. I'm so happy I finally found Juvy and Dan who I read about in NY and sought out in Florida.
