Dr. Tassler is an extremely knowledgeable physical therapist who quickly identified the underlying issues leading to my chronic pain and has provided an excellent treatment plan. He is very validating and actually listens to concerns about your pain which cannot be taken for granted, especially as a woman. I have brought up the intersection of my pain with my other health conditions and he always considers how those conditions may be impacting me as well. I trust him as a provider which is saying a lot!

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
