“Alexander is the ultimate professional. You won’t find a more knowledgeable physical therapist. After working with him, I’m pain free and stronger in areas that needed work.”

— Tricia S. 

“Alexander did an excellent job diagnosing the issue, creating a personalized recovery plan, and pacing the progression to match my own recovery timeline. Not only is my shoulder largely pain-free now, but the exercises he recommended have made me feel stronger and more stable than pre-injury.”

— Ryan L.

“I saw Alexander for my post-op ACL rehab after tearing it playing soccer. He understood how to tailor my rehab for Ehlers-Danlos and hypermobility, and advocated for me to my surgeon when he knew something wasn't right. This helped me get a second MRI, and excess scar tissue removed from my knee, which accelerated my rehab.
He updated my surgeon with my functional testing results, and pivoted my plan to include shoulder PT when I dislocated my shoulder mid-rehab. Alexander actually cares about your hobbies and goals, which made the long rehab process much better. Now I’m back to playing soccer and lifting weights again. If you're an athlete in the Kansas City area, go here.”

— Sam S.

“Alexander has helped me recover from rotator cuff surgery including a bicep reattachment. Super knowledgeable and flexible with busy people, Alexander has brought me back to pain free exercise and moving forward with a better understanding what to do and not to do. Highly recommended.”

— Robert T.

“Alexander was recommended to me by a fellow athlete and is treating me for foot and Achilles tendon injuries. As an older long-distance runner, I needed someone who understood both the injury and the activities I want to get back to. He found the source of the problem and built a plan that goes beyond recovery. It focuses on building strength so I can come back stronger, along with the skills to stay healthy long term. He has paced the progression to what my body can handle, and I’m already more stable and resilient. If you’re weighing whether PT is worth it, schedule a consult with him. His one-on-one, tailored approach has been the difference between staying stuck and getting better.”

— Dean G.

“As a clinician and co-worker- I regularly observed Alexander's expertise in his working with patients. His attention to detail during the examination is only part of his expertise. He was thorough not just in the exam, but also in incorporating imaging and contacting with fellow healthcare professionals to give well rounded care. He invested in his patients for the person and how their condition affects their daily life, not just as diagnosis. Our younger clinicians gravitated toward him for mentorship and guidance on simple to complex conditions alike. I cannot speak highly enough of Alexander as a clinician.

I had been dealing with a lower back issue for about a year when Alex offered to evaluate my ongoing problems. He was able to diagnose the issue quickly and provided interventions that have led to me feeling better than when my pain and limitations initially began. I have greater confidence to continue being active in weightlifting, playing adult soccer, and caring for my rural property. From the patient perspective, I cannot recommend Alexander enough.”

— Justin R.

Dr. Alexander Smith, PT, DPT, SCS, CSCS, USAW-1, FDN-1, EMR
Owner, Lead Physical Therapist

Alexander is one of the Kansas City metro's few residency-trained, Board-Certified Sports Clinical Specialists — a credential held by roughly 1% of physical therapists nationwide*. He completed his sports residency with UW Health, the University of Wisconsin, and the Badger Athletic Performance Lab, where he spent four years training under nationally recognized clinicians, working with hundreds of youth, collegiate, and professional athletes, and completing research on ACL-reconstruction and muscle performance.

Before earning his Doctorate of Physical Therapy at KU Medical Center, Alexander worked with K-State Athletics' Strength & Conditioning department and was selected as an inaugural Bill Snyder Leadership Legacy Fellow. During his doctorate, he worked with EXOS Sports Performance, taught graduate-level cadaver anatomy, treated patients in KU Hospital's Level 1 trauma center, and helped launch a pro bono PT clinic at Wyandotte High School — work that earned him the Jayhawk Impact Award.

During his residency, he also served as Lead Medical and PT for the Madison Mavericks semi-pro basketball team. He has presented at local, state, and national conferences on ACL-reconstruction rehab, muscle performance after injury, knee and tendon pathology, and return-to-sport testing.

Beyond the clinic, he holds additional certifications as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), USA Weightlifting Level 1 coach (USAW-L1), Functional Dry Needling provider (FDN-1), and Emergency Medical Responder (EMR).

Outside of work, Alexander stays active, plays guitar, follows Formula 1 and KC sports, and spends time with friends and his dog, Gigi.
