William Long, PT, DPT
Doctor of Physical Therapy · New York City
Will grew up in [HOMETOWN] and moved to New York for graduate school at [DPT PROGRAM]. He joined Mount Sinai the year he graduated and spent the next seven years rotating through nearly every corner of the hospital's PT service — acute inpatient, the rehabilitation unit, and the outpatient orthopedic clinic.
By the end of that stretch, he'd seen the same pattern too many times: patients left the hospital with a plan on paper, but no one to walk it out with them at home. The bed was different, the stairs were different, the bathroom was different — and the printed sheet of exercises couldn't answer any of it. So he built the practice he wished those patients had had.
Live Long PT is that practice. Based on the Upper East Side, Will brings one clinician, one hour, in your home, for the length of your recovery. No aides, no rotating staff, no billing games — just the person who's been treating your case from day one.
Clinical philosophy
Manual therapy, soft tissue work, and joint mobilization — not just a printed exercise sheet. What your body needs, not what a template says.
Your stairs, your bathroom, your kitchen. Recovery has to fit the space you actually live in, not a clinic gym.
Every visit is with Will. No rotating cast, no losing your progress in a handoff — the person who evaluated you is the person treating you.
You should leave every visit understanding what happened and what to do between sessions. Recovery is a partnership.
